Brain Waves

Female. 20s. NYC native. Competitive Ballroom Dancer. Lover of movies, serial television, musical theater and fine wine. Trying to make it in the film/tv business, but in the meantime looking to overcome my fear of mediocrity. Oh, and I'm a Virgo.

Strong attachments can obscure certain realities about which we'd rather stay in denial.

And in her eyes you see nothing, no sign of love behind the tears, cried for no one, a love that should have lasted years.

Come and meet, those dancing feet! On the avenue I'm takin' you to, 42nd Street.

People say I'm the life of the party 'cause I tell a joke or two. Although I might be laughing loud and hearty, deep inside I'm blue. So take a good look at my face, you'll see my smile looks out of place, if you look closer it's easy to trace the tracks of my tears.

How many years can a mountain exist, before it is washed to the sea? And how many years can some people exist, before they're allowed to be free? And how many times can a man turn is head, and pretend that he just doesn't see? The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind, the answer is blowin' in the wind.

Loyalty

If you work for a man, in heaven's name work for him. If he pays you wages which supply you bread and butter, work for him; speak well of him; stand by him, and stand by the institution he represents. If put to a pinch, an ounce of loyalty is worth a pound of cleverness. If you must vilify, condemn, and eternally disparage, resign your position, and when you are outside, damn to your heart's content, but as long as you are part of the institution do not condemn it. If you do that, you are loosening the tendrils that are holding you to the institution, and at the first high wind that comes along, you will be uprooted and blown away, and will probably never know the reason why.
