    MUSIC-- My Friends/Familyy[:
  • dakoty · 11 months ago
    there isnt one thing that means the most to me in the world... my family, friends, happiness, music, and my education are probably at the top of my list but i dont like to put them in a specific order.
  • ksquared · 11 months ago
    my family no doubt about it.
  • Amyyy · 11 months ago
    besides the usual friends and family.

    i will say dance and music.
    dance is my release. being able to perform is the greatest feeling ever.
    i've been doing it since i was 3.. and i'm almost 20 now. and i'm not stopping. haha.
    music is also a big thing for me, playing guitar or just listening or singing. i love it and its been there for me when no one else has.

    I don't think equality is all everyone is making it out to be. I agree that everyone should have the same rights and opportunities, but I do not believe in the "spreading the wealth" type of equality.

  • kelseybabby · 11 months ago
    God, that's hard. There's so much to be thankful for in the world. There's the really intellectual responses like freedom and our rights. Then there's the more simple-minded, yet equally important, ones like friends and family. Is it even fair to choose one?

    It's sad humans seem to think that life is revolved around living for 'god' and whenever they achieve something great the y thank 'god'. But in all actuality they themselves got there onj their own talent and perseverance.
    Read Richard Dawkins "The God Delusion", it will OPEN your eyes to reality.
  • Brianne · 11 months ago
    it's comforting to know that you believe everything you read.

    or is it that your own narcissistic opinion brings you to the conclusion that no one is aloud the freedom to believe what they want?

    I believe in God. I feel very strongly about my faith, but I'm not going to sit here and tell you that you are wrong for not believing. I will love you as a person, and I would be encouraging to you in the same way that I would be to anyone else. But I find it down right arrogant of you to imply that someone is not living in "reality" because they choose to believe in something that you yourself do not.

    I'm not looking to start some religious debate so don't bother replying. I won't argue with you. My ideas have been stated.
  • Karima · 11 months ago
    its not sad.
    it makes perfect sense
    im not gonna shun you for not believing ... or whatever...
    but heres a question for you just try to answer it.
    why were we put on this earth?
  • soularchitect · 11 months ago
    That's obvious. You all were put here to serve me. DUH.

    Silly mortals.
  • letsgopens · 11 months ago
    aw, this thing is fun. I just found it from your bulletin. Nice backround =)

    Most important thing? Being comfortable in your own skin. If you can't be yourself, then you really have no identity - can't actually have true relationships and ever enjoy another human being in the world. You gotta love who you are, and be true to yourself ALL THE TIME =) and probably taco bell and ice cream too!
  • cally · 11 months ago
    music. when all else fails, my ipod is alway there to lift my spirits and calm me down. music, to me, is the most powerful influence in my life & i would not be here if it were not for music. hope everything is going well for you =)

  • bissyderosa · 11 months ago
    Music means the most to me in the world.
  • BrainstormBritt · 11 months ago
    What means the most to me? Honestly, I don't want you to think I am copying you but equality is my top thing. I just cannot understand how people could even begin to treat one another in a fashion that they themselves would consider less than satisfactory for their personal self. It really boggles me to extents that keep me up at night. I even spout random questions as to why not everyone feels the need to be treated equally. Was it not the principle of the 'Golden Rule' that was taught from the very first day of kindergarten? If children can be taught it why not adults? Perhaps the adults that did not learn that rule early on are the ones that spill it on to their children, who end up being the playground bully. I'm quite surprised I wasn't one of those hooligans because my parents are extremely racist. I must have been a very independent anf free thinking child to escape that almost mandatory family trait.

    Anyways, sorry for that giant paragraph I forget what a motormouth I can be.
  • sharixlynne · 11 months ago

  • crista · 11 months ago

    and happiness means most to me in the world.

    - Article 10 of the ECHR. Without it, I wouldn't have a job, or a purpose. Fighting for it on behalf of those who don't have their voice.

    - Knowing I can go wherever I want whenever I want with whoever I want. There is no sweeter feeling than disappearing for a day with the person you love to see where the day takes you. I miss doing it.

    -Knowing I can do it. Even when they think I can't.
  • Renee · 11 months ago
    My family means the most to me. Mostly my grandpa. He taught me so much, and how to appreciate and not take anything for granted. He has taught me how to live my life to the fullest, and I am so glad I learned from him because he is now in terrible condition in a nursing home.
    Also, Love means everything to me. Its an unbelievable feeling, and once you have it you never want to loose it. You will know if its true love or not. I learned this the hard way. I though I loved my ex, but when we broke up and I started to re-evaluate our relationship, I realized I was lying to myself for the longest time, and I really was not in love with him or happy, I was just comfortable. I will never lie to myself like that again, but I live with no regrets. I learned from this, and now I know how to look out for myself.
  • sunraiz · 11 months ago
    honestly i dont know where i would be without my three best friends anna nikki and jami
    jami has been there for me forever and nikki and anna are so in sync with me they are all truly my heart and soul they tell me the truth weather i want to face it or not we have ups and downs and all arounds but no matter what they will always be my best friends so if i had to pic one thing that means the most it would be a three way tie
  • BrainstormBritt · 11 months ago
    I don't mean this directly to you, just a thought... But everyone keeps saying friends, dont get me wrong i do love my friends, but is that really one of the MOST important things? Maybe it's just me, I've always been more of a 'looking at the whole rather than the part' type of person.

  • Antonia · 11 months ago
    I don't get it.
  • Ashu · 11 months ago
    no?

    ex: you'd say something about conversing with me or something, and I'd change the subject and mention you pairing a dress with a pair of converse. lol :D

    isnt that what you did with passing and passing me up?
  • Antonia · 11 months ago
    :D omg how cute :*). sighs. :*) I'm good how are you? :*) It's 11 :D. See? How would I go to school when I wake at at 11 8/. The day's almost over 8/. :*(
  • Jessica · 11 months ago
    Love. Because without love I wouldn't exist. It's expressed in so many different ways, but love covers a lot of the things that mean a lot to me. If you love someone, you WILL treat them equally. If you have love in your heart, you won't be selfish or cruel to people. If you're loving, you're warm and open-minded and you listen. Love yourself without being conceited, love the people around you enough to forgive them for their mistakes and to treat them well. You don't necessarily have to treat someone how they ''deserve to be treated'' as much as you should treat someone with, well, love. And love your life enough to value it and to value what you have.
    Love really does make the world go around.

  • madison · 11 months ago
    Well, let's see..
    books/literature, chances, surprises, the future, the unexpected, the expected, nature, life, rain, lightning, thunderstorms, the world/Earth, the fact that there are so many people in this world, so many places, and so little time to see it all, road trips, disfunctionally playing random board games with the family, fighting when we try to bond and getting along when we don't try to, walking the dogs with my dad, running errands with my mom, listening to blaring music in the car with my older brother, playing and joking around with my younger brother, colors, plants, trees, forests, the unknown, opportunity, the ability to do whatever I want, textures, variety, night, and the moon. That's all...
  • Alice · 11 months ago
    my mum.
    she's everything to me.
    i'd do anything for her, i'd risk everything to save her from whatever was harming her.
    she's my angel.
    i haven't met anyone that's as close to their mum as i am.
    i think of what she went through raising me and me sisters when we were younger (4 of us, all roughly the same age), she was a single parent trying to raise us 4 in a teeny house in a teeny village and i know she would never give up on me or my sisters or brothers, she'll be there for me and helping me with everything she possibly can
    we don't have much money
    we live in a small 3 bedroomed attatched council house to fit 6 people
    and we're in debt
    i have 3 older sisters and 2 younger brothers
    i could never ask her to buy me anything, i can't take it from her.
    shes worked so hard for what she has, she's raised us with grace, care and honesty.
    she cares more than anyone ever could about me.
    i confide in her with everything, and i love it when she comes up and sits on my bed to speak to me.
    i'm unbelievably lucky to have a mum like her

    more than anyone could ever understand, in the most non-lez way, not that it matters cause i've loved people in a lez way before too.
    but this is different. She is my everything.
    my best friend in the world, chick knows me better than i know myself.
    we got into a fight and i wrote a poem.
    i know you don't wanna read it, but i'm posting it anyway.

    floating around, claiming i'm not good enough.

    boy was I ever wrong.

    cause baby doll, as harsh as it falls,
    it's not me.

    (it's the taxedermy... no.
    )
    It's us.

    You and me,
    this business.

    our contracts broken.

    choking
    on each other.

    we need space.

    stop throwing around these insults.

    stop tossing up these claims.

    insane.

    i used to be worth a poem,
    now i'm a paragraph column.

    i know you're looking for a good time,
    oh baby will you be mine.

    forever and ever.

    time is passing.

    every day i spend alone makes it worse.

    I hope we pass this.

    If i purge?
    that's cruel.

    ignore it.

    splurge.

    i need you.





    It's pretty bad.
    but it fixed our friendship.
    i couldn't live without her.
    bugg&Giant forever.

    I love you
    from now untill the end of time
    and then some
    cause we'll be raisin hell long after we leave this world.

    I love you.
  • Molly · 11 months ago
    I think art, just in general. Music, drawings, photography, literature...really just anything, you name it. All of it just helps you find a new world to escape to, be it permanent or temporary. If I didn't have any of that, I don't know where I'd be right now. Music helps me...well, live. Literature helps me escape. Photography helps me pause a moment in time. All of this helps make me happy, and helps add to the final product that is me.

    That's what means the most to me, at least. I'm sure it's not too original, but it's honest.

    What means the most to me in the world. Well thats simple, freedom. I hate being told what to do and not being able to go where I want and make my own choices. I tend to rule myself, and my mistakes are my own. Freedom allows me to soar and crash and live and love all myself, with no one else holding claim to the fame.
  • devin · 11 months ago
    Embracing life, juicing it for everything that it's worth.
    Seeing people go by, day after day, in the same old rut kills me.
    They just don't see the potential.
    They don't see the possibilities.
    They'd rather bitch and whine about what is wrong rather than trying to do shit about it.
    I want to live with passion.

I think there is no better feeling than doing something good for someone else, and it can be something so small. You don't have to do much to make in impact in someone elses life and I thank everyone that has made an impact in mine because they help me to strive to make a difference for someone else! <3

  • RamshackleAnts · 11 months ago
    Writing and music are the biggest parts of my life... I mean, I can understand where people claim their family or their boyfriend means the most to them. But, people let you down or they leave and they can't always be perfect; music can. Music can't make you feel bad or hurt your feelings. It's always just what you need.

  • Ashu · 11 months ago
    lol. I'm pretty sure some of those guy friends of yours from HS do. cuz you dont get that big w/o using anything.

    as for those Bollywood hunks, they probably do as well. but I'm not really sure--one would think that b/c theyr famous they wouldnt. but the standards in the US are different from the ones there :D and since theyr actors and not athletes it doesnt really matter iguess 8D I mean it does...lol idk.

    The personal creativity and individuality of the people around me means more to me than anything. I work with a lot of kids, and I love that they are building themselves each and every day, and I work to encourage them to be who they want to be. I do the same with my friends and my family.

    If you cannot love who you are, then how can you love anyone else? If you cannot respect yourself how can you respect anyone else? Love yourself, and love others. That is really what matters in life.

    It's never to late to throw down some facade, or some personal cliche and just be who you really are. It's a freeing experience, so liberating.


    Another thing that means more to than anything would be dreams and goals I have for myself. I try my best to pursue the things I want most for my life and encourage others to do the same. Our dreams and goals build our futures.

    "I'm a lot like you so please
    Hello I'm here I'm waiting
    I think I'd be good for you
    And you'd be good for me

    How stupid is it
    I can't talk about it
    I gotta sing about it
    And make a record of my heart"

    I don't think I could ever pick one thing that would mean the world to me. There are too many things that could be said that would mean something to me. Everything in life has a value to me in one way or another. Some more significant than others but all have a value. Without the little and big things it wouldn't make who we are today. So I can't choose. Or rather if I did have to I'd say Life in general.

    My Family is what I want to say but it'd have to be my friends they've bein there for me more than my family has. Equality is on my top five though.

    Music = my catalyst

    Love means the most to me. The thought of one day the world working together as one is my dream world. With love anything is possible. It is the fuel to spark passion. To spark Motivatin. To make one's dreams come true. Knowing one day I will find my other half keeps me going : )

    Having a world where things can mean something to me.

    Music and family.

    If I didn't have those two things, I think I'd be lost.

    Music means the world to me. Without it, everything just doesn't seem right. Though I can't play any instrument listening to music helps me sort of escape from everything.

    Also, having fun with friends and not caring what everyone thinks about us means a lot. Why beplain and boring, its no fun. You only live once is my motto.
