Facebook

Hello everyone. Have you all heard of Facebook? Well, I just got wind of it and thinks it is the best thing since sliced bread. I have found so many people on there from my past. I have even found relatives I havent talked to in years. If you havent yet you should give it a try.

Racism or Ignorance

I was not shocked but appalled by the incident that happened on the West High School bus. A young man who needed a seat on the bus was beaten mercilessly by not one but two students. No one on the bus seemed bothered by it. They just looked, gasped, and laughed. The bus driver did nothing!! I read the news story and it said that they believed that the incident was racially motivated. Racially Motivated???? I think not!!! And why did the newspaper have to tell the race of the young men involved. The incident involved one white (victim) male, and two black males(fighters). But in this story I don't think it mattered what color the young men involved were! This is an issue of wrong and right not black and white. The young men that beat up that other young man was wrong and should be punished to the extent of the law. But not because of their race but because of their ignorance. Being a parent of a high school, school bus rider I couldn't watch it. But if you think you can stomach it click on the link to see the incident for yourself.

Dreams

Did you know that you can control what you dream about? Well, you can!! I was reading about Lucid dreams. It is when people try to control the outcome of a dream while still dreaming. I tried it and it worked. This is how:
1. Relax
2. Close your eyes and focus on an imaginary spot in your field of vision.
3. Focus on your intention having a lucid dream.
4. Tell yourself that you are going to dream about whatever you want.
5. Imagine yourself in a dream of the type you want to have.
6. Repeat the steps until you fall asleep.

Happy Dreaming!

Discussion Thread

Hi everyone, I was just wondering what everyone was doing for Labor Day. My family and I usually go to the Labor Day Parade every year. It is fun for them but not so much for me. When I am off from work I "try" to sleep in. But having children makes that almost impossible. Anyway just being a little nosey.
