your MOM is an epic fail.

i'm not sure when the use of the word "fail" became so trendy, or when 8 year olds started using the words "epic fail" but when you start hearing those words coming out of a person that is a third your size and age, the words begin to lose all meaning. anyway, this post has nothing to do with your mom, but i bet you either laughed or got angry for a second. you'll survive, trust me.

if you've decided to read on, i just wanted to re-emphasize this - "epic fail" means a failure of great magnitude; a lack of success that comes in extraordinary proportions. it is "epic" - legendary, notable. taking this meaning to heart, i have to say that our lives exemplify this. an "epic fail". take offense if you must, but this is what i mean. i mean to say that we are living breathing dying for what we have built up here. our day to day lives involve a lot of "me" work. our thoughts consist of family and money. our ideas .. well, we ran out a while ago. our belief in change has been shaken and our need for community desensitized. i know I haven't written in a while, well, since september on this blog. hope you followed my last one.

we are all human. i can't emphasize this enough .. we ALL SHARE THE SAME HUMANITY. we all feel pain, go through things, the SAME things a lot of times. We laugh, we cry - its universal, and proven! we have this NEED for community and yet we ignore it. why is that? potential around us, brothers and sisters surrounding.. but we fail to engage others while disengaging ourselves. we need each other. when we realize that and start acting on it, we'll change something big and create something new. something the world has rarely seen before, and epic success, if i may. but until then, we continue to live these lives that are

an epic fail. (again, hate this term. last time i use it - ever.)
