 Reflections...



Some can ask what is this post all about, but i just figured the need to post it. The picture above was taken at a specific time when i was quite down and i think it’s funny because it really gives away my mood at that current time. It was Winter. Well, i guess we all get a little depressed during Winter...

I had been stretching the 2 snake skins i keep at home through the floor of the living room. Those were 2 huge snakes i had raised from tiny things, a burm and a retic, and once they died i decided to keep their skins to have something to remember. But somehow i got nostalgic and a little sad also. What about us?? We will all die one day too... they say good leather can last centuries, then i guess my snakes (the skins) will be around to be seen after i am gone myself.. Kind of freaks me out to think about it. And how will i be remembered after i am gone? A fool with a strange hobby or a man with a healthy passion for the living.. in a world where nothing stays alive long enough to make it worth it... ??

Yeah Jimmy , I know how you feel ! sometimes I catch myself a little too deep in thoughts of reality.
I think the best thing to do ,and the reason we are here is to live the life to the fullest of your own potential . Do what makes you and the others around you feel good.
Now sit back and reflect on all the good and interesting things you have accomplished in your life , and I will do the same !

Life is a funny thing is it not?

cheers,Rich

damn... sad as fck... really.. heres a song just about that.



These days are closing in
The end has become apparent
We’re only here for so long
Will anyone remember my name
When time has washed away the dust of our ashes
When my head rests in a velvet lined casket
What’s out there?
What is my eternal fate?
And it only just recently hit me
That this life is just a state
Mortality fading, like the innocence of love
I’m scared to death of what’s to become

Of my immortal soul of this eternal flame
Will you remember?
Will your heart sing with pain?
Who calls out my name?
And tell me what happens
When my eyes close for the last time
Does it all simply end in a blanket of darkness
And what of my soul, what of my soul?

All those things that you couldn’t say
You should’ve said
All those I-love-you’s lost
Weighed more like lead on your chest

All those things that you couldn’t say
You should’ve said
All those I-love-you’s lost
Weighed more like lead on your chest, what of

Of my immortal soul of this eternal flame
Will you remember?
Will your heart sing with pain?
Who calls out my name?
And tell me what happens
When my eyes close for the last time
Does it all simply end in a blanket of darkness
And what of my soul, what of my soul?


If I could take back all those misspent days
Every second of anger, I would wash my sins away!

Who calls out my name?
And tell me what happens
When my eyes close for the last time
Does it all simply end in a blanket of darkness
And what of my soul, what of my soul?




its a very meaningful song i think.

and reminded me of the stuff you just said

This is one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite bands... And so appropriate for this post....It scares me to think of such things, but the only thing we can do is live like it’s the only life we have... Because it truely is... there are no second chances, so make sure you get it right the first time...

Live,Love,Burn,Die

Thank you all for replying to this post. It means a lot to me that it isn’t going unseen and that somehow you can relate to it.
