Aesop's Fables
The Flies and the Honey Jar
After a jar of honey was knocked over in a kitchen, the flies were attracted by its sweet smell and began eating the honey. Indeed, they swarmed all over it and did not budge from the spot until they had devoured every drop. However, their feet had become so clogged that they could not fly away, no matter how much they tried.
Stymied by their own voracious appetites, they cried out, "What foolish creatures we are! We've thrown away our lives just for the sake of a little pleasure."

Fresh start
Finally managed to sort out some things that have been making me feel down recently...now it's time for a fresh start and the summer to really begin :)
Oh, and I want these shoes.
Day 27 - A song that you wish you could play
>>> I wish I could play every Lady Gaga song properly on the piano, and then I could sing along too.

Once again...
Squee
"When I was little I would pull the covers up over my head and hope that it was enough to ward off the things that I hoped would leave me alone while I slept - not that I could ever sleep. I was afraid of so much, doubtful of so little, and would jump at the slightest sound, because some part of me never refused to believe that these nightmare things were ever impossible.
And with those fear stained blankets pulled over my head, I know that it was never about actually believing that they would protect me from any horror, it was about keeping myself blind to ever really finding out if anything was real enough to be afraid of.
Being afraid meant there was a chance that whatever frightened you was something that actually existed, that these translucent voiceless ghost-infants were out there, somewhere, just waiting for you to find them some night, that the devil really was watching you, wanting you.
See...there was a sense of comfort I got from that dread of things supernatural, lurking where only such things lurk. But, so far as I can tell, I've never seen a ghost, or shuddered in the actual presence of a God or Devil.
And where I once hid from these things, I now stay up dreaming about them, knowing that even if I pissed my pants at the sight of them, I would at least know that the world was full of something more, something real beyond this machine life that replaced the little universe beneath the blankets."

Day 24 - A song that you want to play at your funeral
>>> Someday I'll Be Saturday Night by Bon Jovi? Obviously undecided about this stuff.

"According to Greek mythology...
...humans were originally created with four legs, four arms + a head with two faces.
Fearing their power, Zeus split them into two spearate parts, condemning them to spend their lives in search of their other halves."
Plato's The Symposium.

Toy Story 3
..it might be sad going to see a disney film at the cinema aged 18, but I'm going to do it. The old disney films were really huge parts of being young + seeing all the characters from toy story again would bring it all back. I think that once you are a fan of something, deep down you will always be a fan...bring on toy story 3, eleven years later.
