Lyrics for today:
My Generation
by Phil Joel
Feel the flames in the moonlight
Feel the warmth from the campsite
There is no reason to fear
No one's alone here
Memories never stray too far
West coast summers, our first cars
We were kings, this was our kingdom
But like soldiers to war we were sent
So many things called us away
And I saw the tail lights fade
Watch you walking away
It's driving me crazy
It's my generation
Watch you walking away
It's driving me crazy
It's my generation
Feel the flames in the moonlight
Growing up, our spirits so high
We had the fire and we felt the same
How did things get so strange?
Fuel the fire, gotta fan the coals
What will become of our souls?
Better to look a fool and still say this
Close your eyes to the world's infatuations
You know the truth
And I wish you were here tonight

it's already 1 month down in 04. one day fades into another week and the months tick by. i've been thinking lately about what's important in life.
quoting the big JD (James dobson - mr focus on the fam) - "when you come to the end of your life, only a handful of things will matter. Who you loved, and who loved you. And where you'll stand on that day"
and here i stand or am i really lying down - just drifting. what is worth striving for, what is worth dying or more importantly, living for.
for me, the time of the quarterlife crisis is over. all the arguments of youth, the rebellion, the music, the so-called important issues (you guys will know what i'm talking about) are fading out, and adulthood looms large.
time for new goals, new aspirations. the last two years were pretty much focused on J, family, new house ... everything else went on hold.
usually i'd wait and see what happens. guess that's what i'll do.

it's a new day. Why not start a blog? I've felt the need for a new hobby so maybe this will start off where http://www.geocities.com/southbeach/lights/3357 left off.
mind you, why should anyone read this? just another lot of random musings ...
ok, first and foremost this will be for me. and it's a nod to the past as well, back to the days of bbs's.
