<br/>Current Mood: Curious &#38;  Introspective&#8230;and no, I don&#8217;t mean one of those &#8220;housewives&#8221; on the reality TV series  on Bravo.
I mean a real housewife.
For those who aren&#8217;t housewives, have you ever wanted to be a  housewife? What&#8217;s your perception of a housewife?

To me a housewife is someone who takes care of the [...]]]></description>

<br/>Current Mood: IntrospectiveTake a straw.
Poke a hole into my scalp
Dip it in very deep
Sip  me
Drink me
Drain me
Until I&#8217;m dry and empty
Crack open my  head
Eat the tender bloodless meat
Clinging to the walls
Or  shred me
Grate me
Into fine flakes
Or leave me be
String me  up high
Far up a tropical tree
Hanging by a broken wilted neck
With [...]]]></description>

<br/>Current Mood: Curious &#38;  Introspective &#38;  Thoughtful
Do you believe some people are more fortunate than others or do you think people create their own luck? In your opinion, are some people cursed?

I believe yes to both. I believe, regardless of whether we like it or not, some people are more fortunate and in [...]]]></description>

<br/>Current Mood: SadMichael Jackson was brilliant, insanely talented and he left an indelible, inimitable, phenomenal, revolutionary and surreal mark on the face of entertainment and music&#8230;forever. No matter what you feel or interpret about the personal life he led, this is inarguable.
It&#8217;s so easy to call him a freak, a nut bar, a lunatic, a [...]]]></description>

<br/>Current Mood: Happy&#8220;What do you miss about being a kid?&#8221;
I think I miss being so naive to things in a way that caused me to look at the world in pure unadulterated wonder that only a true child could. There are many firsts during childhood that create extremely fragrant memories.
I look at many things still [...]]]></description>

<br/>Current Mood: MotivatedI wish there were more places and opportunities for adults to indulge in recess activities that they participated in as children.
I don&#8217;t know why we have to abandon these fun things as we become older. As adults, we often feel a need to &#8220;get to the gym&#8221; when we want physical activities in [...]]]></description>

<br/>Current Mood: Indescribable &#38;  IntrospectiveYesterday I was thinking of the subject of happiness. I wonder if sensitivity and happiness are directly related. I think so.
I am able to create moments of &#8220;happiness&#8221; where I take pleasure in the most simplest of things and where I make connections between the dissimilar. I can be very [...]]]></description>

<br/>Current Mood: Introspective &#38;  Motivated &#38;  ThoughtfulWhat is the American dream?
Of course each person defines it differently when it is defined on an individual basis, but for many I&#8217;d argue that the American dream is about attaining financial prosperity. Some people might argue that it includes other things such as family, romantic relationships, [...]]]></description>
