Thinking & Feeling

“The world is a tragedy to those who feel, but a comedy to those who think.” Horace Walpole

A gentle reminder...

To my ex, the rude lady outside the school this morning, and the mean teacher who gave Quinn yet another unwarranted demerit yesterday further pushing him and making him feel like no matter what he does it is not ever good enough ... and everyone else out there that needs a reminder.

Be more considerate.

If you propose to speak, always ask yourself:
- is it true, is it necessary, is it kind?
~ Gautama Buddha

CONSIDER ME - Prime Circle

Do you know who you’re friends are and what they say
Do you know what’s coming round again and again?
Do you know if you’re acting like someone else?
Do you know if it’s dangerous or the safest bet?

Cause I’m here waiting for
I’m here changing more.

Consider me, consider you, consider the world
And what we put it through

Is it always the same or just moving along?
Do you have to put that face up to act strong?

And I can’t take anymore, but I’m here, I’m here, I’m here.

Consider me, consider you, consider the world
And what we put it through
Consider me, consider you, consider the world
And what we put it through

I’m here waiting for, something better just to come along
I’m here waiting all this time, waiting for the world
To change it’s mind.
I’m here waiting for something better to come along
I’ll take a chance on you, you take a chance to

Consider me, consider you, consider the world
And what we put it through

I’m here waiting for, something better just to come along
I’m here waiting all this time, waiting for the world
To change it’s mind.
