~ Escaping Prison ~



Go outside when you feel blue
Take a moment just for you...
Close your eyes & smell the breeze
Hear the birds up in the trees.
Children's laughter, clouds float by
Breathe in deep, release that sigh...
Clear your head of all debris
That shackles you - don't let it be,
the reason why your head is low,
just step outside & let it go.
Take a moment in each day
to find your sanity this way...
Escape the prison in your mind
A brand new day is what you'll find.
A little bit of sanity - -
reason to live - reason to be.
Go outside when you feel blue,
Take a moment, just for you...

PFF - Beautiful!  Looks like nature gives you the same "fix" that it gives me.

Robert - (waving at brother! )  HI - I will !  

hsystems - Laughing at "fix"....yes, it does.  I'm telling you, I can be ready to rip someone's throat out, and if I just step out the front door, look up to the sky, regardless the weather, and take a deep breath of the fresh air....aaahhh....everything just seems to go away, you know?  All my frustrations - many lives have been "salvaged" from just me stepping out!  LOL  Fresh air is like a good drug to me, I can't stand being indoors for long!  I go nuts!

Like a drug to you huh?  [G]  Maybe a weekend of camping would do me better than my nights at the club.  [G]  

Actually as long as there's a pond or river or wildlife... you know, some kind of eyecandy... and a nice breeze I'm in heaven too.  Thanks for the idea [sigh] unfortunately I'm stuck in this room with aa bunch of broken computers... I can't even get tem to put a window in back here.  

Later,
Dave

 "The storm rises up when the shadows descend
every beat of my heart every day without end
I will stand like a rock I will bend till I break
till theres no more to give if thats what it takes
I will risk everything I will fight I will bleed
I will lay down my life if thats what you need
every second I live thats the promise I make"

I have no idea who wrote this... tell me if you know. =)
