You just lift your arms higher

The Show Goes On by geovloggity

Favorite lines —
So no matter what you been through
No matter what you into
No matter what you see when you look outside your window
Brown grass or green grass
Picket fence or barbed wire
Never ever put them down
You just lift your arms higher
Raise em till’ your arms tired
Let em’ know you’re their
That you struggling and survivin’ that you gonna persevere
Yeah, ain’t no body leavin, no body goin’ home
Even if they turn the lights out the show is goin’ on!
This song makes me want to conquer the world.

Quotation of the Week

"When a young person is moved by a passion and feels compelled to go on this sort of quest, I think you have to let him. You can't stop him. In our culture we don't have formal rites of passage like in some ancient cultures. Subjecting yourself to risk... may be something you have to go through to be a man or a woman."

Inversions

I have another serious aspiration: To be able to do an independent handstand, preferably somewhere as cool as the setting in this image. Why am I feeling so jealous of that dude right now?

To the stars if you really want it

Far East Movement


Far East Movement - Rocketeer [DJ Megaman and Panic City remix] by djpaniccity

It takes a little patience to get to the good stuff, and then out of nowhere, just explodes into happiness. I am very loyal to originals, but this ain't too shabby.

I'm really digging their skinny ties.
