Chillout with Theo Katzman

Insightful Message from Neale Donald Walsch

I received this message today from Mr. Walsch and it makes perfect sense to me, especially on this day under these very circumstances but for some reason it just isn't sinking in or taking effect. I know that's up to me...maybe I'm not ready to end this self-pity party. Anyway, I won't bore you with my problems anymore. Enjoy this delightful message:

On this day of your life, I believe God wants you to know...

...that you were created to create -- not to react.

Creation is the highest form of Divinity, and your

birthright. Truth is, you are creating all the time. The

central question in your life is whether you are

doing this consciously or unconsciously.

Conscious creation is what is needed now. Stop

moping. And stop thinking negative thoughts. Just

get on with it! Tomorrow awaits your choice as to

how its going to be. Call the shots! Make it happen!

You're in charge here.

Amen.
Now I just have to put this truth into practice. Sigh.

This Guy Has An Amazing Voice

I like this version of the hit Katy Perry song because of Boyce Avenue's range and tonal quality:

"Firework"


"Teenage Dream"


Original Song:
"Briane"

Amazing Scene from "Shameless" (US)

"Just knowing your tits are trying to kill you, that's gotta suck. I mean mine's in my balls. So they've got a reason to be pissed — tucked between two legs, wedged right under your asshole, there's no good way to sit, no underwear that's been devised to hold them effectively in place. They're a bizarre appendage; an afterthought, which is why I don't believe in intelligent design. There is no G-d, we're all gonna die."

-Frank Gallager (drunk dad on "Shameless" (US), brilliantly played by William H. Macy)

A "Shameless" Plug

I heard this closing song on season 1, episode 3 of "Shameless" (US version).

It's "November was White, December was Grey" by Say Hi.

Be True to Yourself

"The Guy in the Glass"
by Dale Winbrow

When you get what you want in your struggle for pelf,
And the world makes you King for a day,
Then go to the mirror and look at yourself,
And see what that guy has to say.

For it isn't your Father, or Mother, or Wife,
Who judgement upon you must pass.
The feller whose verdict counts most in your life

Is the guy staring back from the glass.
He's the feller to please, never mind all the rest,
For he's with you clear up to the end,
And you've passed your most dangerous, difficult test
If the guy in the glass is your friend.

You may be like Jack Horner and "chisel" a plum,
And think you're a wonderful guy,
But the man in the glass says you're only a bum
If you can't look him straight in the eye.

You can fool the whole world down the pathway of years,
And get pats on the back as you pass,
But your final reward will be heartaches and tears
If you've cheated the guy in the glass.

Dale Wimbrow 1895-1954

____________________________

You can fool the whole world but if you can't look at yourself square in the eyes in the looking glass with true integrity, then your big act to please the outside world was all for naught.

Always be true to yourself and if those around you can't accept you fully for who you truly are, then f*ck them and move on to bigger and better things.

"Grace" by Kate Havnevik

I like this song by Kate Havnevik, sung by Callie on Grey's Anatomy's musical episode ("Song Beneath the Song").

"Nothing comes easily."
