quote...
"is someone gonna take exception? sure they are! but you know what? i'm not doing my job unless there's some degree of controversy. you know, if i'm not pissing somebody off in the world, i'm not doing my job. quite frankly, i do that very easily, without even trying sometimes. if we go too far, then we can always pull back. but you gotta laugh at this stuff; you have to. you can't take everything seriously."

that's why i'm starting with me...
I've had an interesting weekend, to say the least. This is gonna be a short one, with more contribution from MJ than myself. It's Dussehra today, and as I look back at the past month, I'm amazed at how much some close ones have whined to me; pointless complexities & self-created difficulties, direct results of excess coffee & an over-imaginative brain with a little too much time. As I logged onto cry.org again today, it struck me how many wouldn't know that Dussehra was an occassion to be celebrated; the truth of the matter is, most of them wouldn't know what a celebration meant.
It's okay to vent, people, but there has to be a limit. So, I wanna just take a step back, and re-assess what this coming week is going to be like. How is Tushar Sahney going to live this 1? And what about you? How are you going to spend this week? There are others out there with real diffculties; real people, with real problems, with real consequences.
Guess I'm just as "guilty" as the people whose whining I was complaining about. That's why I'm starting with me :)

Man in the Mirror
I'm gonna make a change, for once in my life
It's gonna feel real good, gonna make a difference
Gonna make it right...
As I, turn up the collar on my favorite winter coat
This wind is blowin' my mind
I see the kids in the street, with not enough to eat
Who am I, to be blind? Pretending not to see their needs
A summer's disregard, a broken bottle top
And a one man's soul
They follow each other on the wind ya' know
'Cause they got nowhere to go
That's why I want you to know
I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change
(Na na na, na na na, na na, na nah)
I've been a victim of a selfish kind of love
It's time that I realize
That there are some with no home, not a nickel to loan
Could it be really me, pretending that they're not alone?
A willow deeply scarred, somebody's broken heart
And a washed-out dream (Washed-Out dream)
They follow the pattern of the wind, ya' see
Cause they got no place to be
That's why I'm starting with me
I'm starting with the man in the mirror, (Oh yeah!)
I'm asking him to change his ways (Better change!)
No message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make the change
You gotta get it right, while you got the time
'Cause when you close your heart
You can't close your... your mind!
Then you close your... mind!
That man, that man, that man, that man
With that man in the mirror (Man in the mirror, oh yeah!)
Make that change...
