cycle of life
I was driving down a street that i don't normally drive on last week and noticed how the leaves were showing their fall colors. Most trees in my area are either green or the leaves have already fallen off, so this was a nice treat. The wind was blowing in just the right way to make the leaves look like flickering fire. It got me thinking:
These beautiful colors are here because the leaves are dying. We normally think of death as a terrible, ugly thing, but nature makes even death aesthetically pleasing to the eye in some forms.
As we all know, trees come back every spring with bright, vibrant colors, then go to their normal green color, in the fall die with colors of fire, the leaves fall to the ground and decompose into the soil which fertilizes the tree, and then start the cycle over again. Sound familiar?
It reminded me of the legendary bird who would be born, live, die in a flaming death, be reborn from its own ashes, and then repeat the cycle again.
I'm sure you're thinking,"That's cool and all, but what's your point?
My point is, that all life has a cycle. Most not as brilliant as the legendary Phoenix or even an ordinary tree, but there is a cycle. We are born, we live, and die. Well what about the "rebirth" part? No, I don't believe in reincarnation, but we do live on. Unlike the Phoenix, we are not reborn after we die from our ashes (unless you are Christian and believe in the second coming), but we do live on through our children and grandchildren.
* We are born into the world with a possible bright future
* We live out our daily normal lives
* We bring forth new life from within
* And finally die
Life has a cycle, you just have to look at it from a different perspective.
That is my thought of the week.
Quote of the Week:
Mufasa: Everything you see exists together in a delicate balance. As king, you need to understand that balance and respect all the creatures, from the crawling ant to the leaping antelope.
Young Simba: But, Dad, don't we eat the antelope?
Mufasa: Yes, Simba, but let me explain. When we die, our bodies become the grass, and the antelope eat the grass. And so we are all connnected in the great Circle of Life.

Update
I haven't been here in a long time. I think I'm going to start using theO and myO more often again. Probably not nearly as much as I used to, but hopefully at least once a week. I'm going to use it just to have a place to share my thoughts of the week or on life.
Sorry to those of you I stopped talking to when i was gone.
I hope to hear from some of you again

Hey everyone, or at least those of you who are left
how have you been?
I have been great overall since my last post. (I think. I don't really remember all my moods since then)
I've had a couple huge changes in my life.
1. LB and i are no longer together. It doesn't even seem like we are friends anymore... I think the first part was for the best, but the second part sucks... I still wish we could talk, but she seems to avoid me maybe because of the next big change
2. I'm with another girl now. I haven't been this happy since *thinks* who knows when. We have a lot in common and even think the same thoughts at the same time. Its kinda weird at times. lol
3. I am now majoring in psychology, or I will be soon. I need to talk with the psych department at Wright State so i can officially change my major. This is my second change in majors and I'm pretty sure the last.
4. I'm taking a chinese class at my university. I'm in my second quarter of it, but I'm doing fairly well in it and i love it
I think those are all of the major changes in my life. There are plenty of smaller ones that have impacted my life in one way or another, like the people i hang out with, my hobbies, etc
oh yeah, I finally wrote my first song. Its actually for my girlfriend, but me being the somewhat shy guy that i am, I'm having trouble getting myself to actually sing it for her. The guitar part is easy enough.
well, if anyone wants to still talk with me or whatever, you would have much better luck emailing me.
Either:
a.s.member_ghost@hotmail.com
or
cabay.2@wright.edu
I also have a myspace and facebook. If you want to add me there, just email me and I'll give you the info you need.
I hope to hear from some of you soon

Wow, it has been forever since I have even visited MyO...
I miss this site and everyone that I used to talked to. The long hours of messing around with html and whatever else to get everything to work. Good times.
It seems like a lot of the people that used to post every day haven't posted in a long time... Its kinda depressing knowing that i lost a lot of friends.
Maybe I can get back into the habit of posting more often, but we'll see what happens. I wonder if anyone still remembers me... *ponders*

Hey everyone
well, my spring break has come and passed... I don't think one week is enough for a break. Two would be great, but I don't have a PhD in school scheduling so it doesn't matter what I think. lol
I have a new addicting, Guild Wars. :P If anyone else plays, let me know and maybe we can work together or something.
I probably won't be on during the since I have classes, but I will try to be every once in a while.
So, how is everyone doing? Hopefully school isn't killing you or anything of the sort.
I'm still not very happy about not having the ability to pm through myO and not having the profile view counter...
I guess that is my rambling for the day. I hope everyone has/had a great spring break and if you don't have a spring break, I feel bad for ya...

The Otaku
Hey everyone,
I see that nothing new happened for us at MyO... Everything was changed at theO. It is pretty cool. I've started up a world there.
Since we can't pm anymore here, if you want to talk, just message me on theO.
I guess that's all for now.

1st post of the week
Hey everyone!
how are you all doing? I hope you all doing fine and dandy. :)
If you are wondering, I'm doing pretty darn good right now. I got to see my gf today, LB, which always makes my day better. Her and I are doing great and I'm very happy to be with her again.
Well, tomorrow/today is my Mom's b-day, so happy birthday to her. She gets the day of from work, my dad gets a day off, my siblings get a day off (for president's day), and I have to go to classes... *sigh* oh well, it isn't all bad. The college I go to is really close to a mall, so I can get my mom a gift.
ok, that is all I am going to post for now... I'm really tired, so I'm going to bed as well. I hope everyone has a great week!

Hola
Hey everyone. By everyone, I mean the few who actually take the time to visit my site and comment. I thank you very much.
Anyway, I recently got into a new manga called Ashita no Yoichi. It is pretty good, but there are some parts that are really weird. Probably not for readers under the age of 16...
Here is a story summary of it:
A boy swordsman, Yoichi and his father lives in a mountain training. His father states that there is nothing more for him to learn here and tells him to go stay at a dojo that their relative owns. His first time decent from the mountain and has absolutely no experience in living in an urban area. How he gets used to the new environment and what awaits at the dojo is for you to find out!
I'll gave you this little hint, he is living with 4 girls. O_O but that makes it become very interesting.
I have also been watching an anime called School Rumble, I highly recommend it to everyone! It is crazy!!! lol
So, how have you all been? If it has sucked, I'm here if you need to talk about it. If it was good, I'm still here to listen. ^_^
Well, I hope everyone has great rest of the week!

How's everyone doing?
I'm doing pretty darn good. A little tired and worried about LB, but other than good.
I know for sure now that I'm not going to make a new site. I have a lot of memories with this site and don't have a very good reason to delete this one.
Oh yeah, What do you guys think of the new theme?
Well, I guess I don't have much to say, so I'm going to end wth that.
Maybe I'll get back into the habbit of posting quotes and questions. We'll see what happens =P

Hey everyone!!!
Sorry it has been a while since I updated last...
So, another update on my life:
I am living at home again and going to a more local university. I like it there so much more than I was going and I get to be close to a lot of my friends, family, and of course girl friend (LB). ^_^
I get to play table tennis almost all day. (one of my fairly new hobbies) I'm so much happier now that I am back. XD
I know I have said this before, but I am going to try much harder to post at least twice a week, hopefully more, but we'll see what happens.
I'm think about cleaning up my friends list since most of the people on there only added me so i could sign their gb... How depressing or I may end up making a new site because it would take too long to clear out my friends list...
Of course I would add the people that comment regularly or have at least talked to me a couple times. I'll let you know if I do do that. Most likely I won't create a new one.
ok, I think that is it for now!
oh yeah, please click HERE it will help me out.
Thanks!!!
I hope everyone has an amazing week
