Fulmer" Subject: ET: Re: EDAF: Insightful musings?/Verble dribble?-You Decide! =) Well put, Alan! It really comes down to this. Our life is what we choose it to be. We create ourselves and our environment. Yes, people can argue this philosphy until they are blue in the face, but chance are they are unhappy and unwilling to do anything about it. The fact is that any sucessful person will tell you this is true; decided what they wanted and went after it. Jewel herself maintains and teaches this attitude. Its not a matter of how life is, its a matter of what you choose to see and interact with. So, the question is this: "How will you decide to view, and subsequently live, life?" If you *choose* to view life in a positive and hopeful manner, your life will be full of positive and hopeful happenings, full of rewards. If you *choose* to view life in a negative and cynical manner, your life will be full of negative and cynical happenings, full of disappointments. You choose! I, Alan, Jewel, and a quickly growing amount of others choose to enjoy life, and to involve ourselves in the positive and hopeful aspects. =) Mark ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 3 Dec 1998 17:23:09 -0800 From: moonsong@ix.netcom.com (Charlie, Andalite, & The Goddess) Subject: ET: Re: eda-thoughts-digest V1 #305 Hola... >First of all, Sam, I need to write you, but I just wanted to tell you >that your stuff to the list has been really incredible...

Fulmer" Subject: ET: Poem(duh..what else do I usually write hehe) Hey Everyone, Well...tonight I was in a depression....and I didn't think I'd ever come out of it but by some miracle and I dunno what happened but I feel a little better now...I was feeling GOOD but then Melissa came on and with me in a cynical mood then she told me to shut up and I said "ok..I will" and I haven't spoken to her since so I'm kinda sad about that but I guess since it's not bothering me too much it's good :) But anyway..I've been trying to write a Christmas poem dealing with Angels so that I could put it in ANWA when I give it to Melissa for Xmas...but all my poems diverge from that theme...but this morning I got this cool poem that could be a song if someone wanted to put a tune to it...Here it is :) - ------------------- A Goddess in Corporeal Form(I might change it to "A Perfect Woman") by Seth D. Fulmer 12/3/98 She swam the 7 seas and gave birth to an army She drew miracles worthy of saints and like Santa Claus she was jolly She wrote letters to the pope about the homeless men in China and saved up all her money to give to the Salvation army She's a saint, the mother saint and I love her like a goddess She'd do anything if you asked her but if you paid her, she would rob you She would kiss you anywhere, hold your hand when you were scared, rub your knee when you fell down, Mend your soul when you were blue In the recesses of the graveyards she lays flowers on the dead In the shallow parts of society from our souls she takes the lead In times of war she mends the wounded In times of peace she heals the sick In times of heartache and, or struggle she helps the lovesick and the heartbroken She's a saint, the mother saint and I love her like a goddess She'd do anything if you asked her but if you paid her, she would rob you She would kiss you anywhere, hold your hand when you were scared, rub your knee when you fell down, Mend your soul when you were blue Through all hell and hope denied With the power of souls combined As the love of society came forth so went she to save the world Seth Fulmer mailto:usfulmer@mcs.drexel.edu mailto:st96t879@post.drexel.edu mailto:kaosking@voicenet.com webpages: http://www.voicenet.com/~kaosking Cool Quotes and stuff :) "We've made houses for hatred; It's time we make a place where People's souls may be seen and made safe" - -Jewel "Innocence Maintained" ------------------------------ End of eda-thoughts-digest V1 #306 **********************************
