Retract

Sometimes people say things they don't mean

or do things they can not take back

Sometimes we do the things that we can not take back

so we feed ourselves to starve the pain

Unburden yourself from the mistakes of your past

and when you do, your heart grows stronger

it doesn't mean what you have done is forgotten

what you have done is out there

and what you have done remembers

Michael Joseph Savage.

Michael Joseph Savage was the first Labour Prime Minister of New Zealand and lead the nation for 14 years from 1935 to 1949.

Under his time as the leader of this nation, Labour introduced:

Compulsory trade unionism
The 40 hour working week
Introduced welfare benefits for invalids and the unemployed
Removed most fees for healthcare and secondary education
Began the state housing programme, providing rental houses for low-income workers
Replaced the term 'Native' with 'Maori' in official usage, including the Minister of Māori Affairs

These things make what New Zealand is today, an amazing nation of diversity and support for those in need of welfare.

We are only a small and young nation, but we march with a union of hearts and souls to a common destiny.
- Michael Joseph Savage

Can't you see?

Take a look at your self in the mirror, who do you see looking back?
Is it the person you want to be?
Or is there someone else you were meant to be, the person you should have been but fell short of.

Is someone telling you, you cant, or you wont? Because you can!
Believe that love is out there
Believe that dreams come true everyday, because they do

Sometimes happiness doesn't come from money or fame or power, sometimes happiness comes from good friends and family and the quiet knowbility of leading a good life
Believe that dreams come true everyday, because they do
So take a look in that mirror and be happy, because you deserve to be
Believe that! And believe that dreams do come true everyday, because they do

Just when

Just when you think it is ok
It all comes rushing back
Just when you think its ok
he slams you in the face

its not his fault that he drives me fucken crazy
i really thought i was over that
but today it just came all rushing back

Playing Jenga can be fun.

Especially when it is Giant Jenga, and you play with your face...
the game is full of surprises.
