Millikin Basketball:
"There's a lot of talent here, a lot of young talent, definitely, One thing about this team is that, while some of the names change, the personality doesn't. There is a certain philosophy here, a way we play, and that's a constant that always gives you a chance to do something special."
~Hines Ward~
Home, Michael Buble
Another summer day
Is come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home Mmmmmmmm Maybe surrounded by a million people
I still feel all alone
I just wanna go home
Oh I miss you, you know
And I’ve been keeping all the letters that
I wrote to you, each one a line or two
“I’m fine baby, how are you?”
Well I would send them but I know that it’s just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that
Another aeroplane
Another sunny place I’m lucky I know
But I wanna go home Mmmm,
I’ve got to go home, let me go home
I’m just too far from where you are
I wanna come home
And I feel just like I’m living someone else’s life
It’s like I just stepped outside
When everything was going right
And I know just why you could not
Come along with me
This was not your dream
But you always believed in me
Another winter day has come
And gone away in either Paris and Rome And I wanna go home, let me go home And I’m surrounded by A million people I Still feel alone Oh, let go home
Oh, I miss you, you know, let me go home
I’ve had my run baby, I’m done
I gotta go home, let me go home
It will all be alright, I’ll be home tonight
I’m coming back home

Song of the Week
I always knew I felt this way
But couldn't find the time to say
To myself I've got to let it go
With all the joy and all the pain
Through the drought and the rain
The honest truth is all I want to know
Let it fall, let it go
~Let It Fall,  Sean Watkins

Hope gets stronger if it is shared with others in faith.

"I've learned that there are people in life who will be there for you unconditionally, and there are those people, for whatever reason,  won't be there. But you can't spend time being hurt by those people who won't be there. Just rely on those who will"
I'm continuing to figure it out every single year: Life is a challenge, and the ones that succeed in life are the tough minded ones that are not willing to accept failure. And no matter what...I'm going to continue to be successful.
~Jermaine O'Neil
Basketball was never a recreation for me. It was my whole life-something I fell in love with.
Larry Bird
Yeah, I got friends who love me, a big blue sky above me,
And your two arms around me, baby, every night.
Oh, I know Jesus loves me, up in that sky above me:
I see the mornin' sun again and feel alive.
Isn't that everything? I don't need anything.
It's only the simple things, I believe,
That matter most in life.
I'm more than satisfied,
All that I have is all I need:
Isn't that everything?

Doubt whom you will, but never yourself
Sorrow comes in so many ways. Two years ago I had no notion of that-I mean of the unexpected ways in which trouble comes, and ties our hands, and makes us silent when we long to speak.
~George Eliot~
In these past two years...
the past is annoying.. showing up in everybodys words
every song you hear, every block you walk.. but you
never want to get rid of it ..cus at one point it
was where you wanted to be
Nobody will believe in you unless you believe in yourself
The jealousies, resentments, and squabbles that tear apart so many others will never undo us because, out of respect, I hold those I am really fond of to a lower standard than I do other people.
Yeah, I got to work on time again this morning
This old job is all that I got to live
And no one even noticed I'd been crying
At least I don't have whisky on my breath.
Yeah, I think I'm gonna make it
'Cause God won't make a mountain I can't climb
It's getting better all the time
~Brooks and Dunn~
It's easier to quit the game and hide your pain
You never really know
But
what if this is that one day?
You call for faith
I show you doubt, to prove that faith exists
The more of doubt, the stronger faith, I say,
If faith o'ercomes doubt
   
~Robert Frost
Only one absolute certainty is possible to man, namely that at any given moment the feeling which he has exists.
Thomas H. Huxley
I think that somehow, we learn who we really are and then live with that decision.
Eleanor Roosevelt
I ain't gonna let 'em hurt me now
They ain't gonna break me down
I ain't gonna let 'em kick me around
Hey nothin's gonna break me down
"..she said i don't know if i've ever been good enough
i'm a little bit rusty and i think my head is caving in
and i don't know if i've ever been really loved by a hand that's touched me
and i feel like somethin's gonna give
and i'm a little bit angry.."
Nobody else can make me right
Nobody else can feel this wrong
And in one moment I am right
Another dead as night
I should have known
I'd never own this borrowed home
~SheDAISY~

Don't ask me for the truth if you choose to lie...
The most important thing is never, ever losing faith...
There is no ache more deadly than the striving to be oneself...
I'm sorry, I was wrong
I could have been there
Should have been so strong
Well this time I'm not going to watch myself die. I think I made it a game to play your game and let myself cry. I buried myself alive on the inside to shut you out.
I've given all I had to give and now
it's time for me to live, and I won't look back
and I won't regret though it hurts like hell
Someday I will forget
Stronger, Kasey Chambers
I'm a little bit stronger, I'm a little bit wiser,
It's a little bit clearer in my mind.
I can shout a bit louder, I can feel a bit prouder,
But nothing makes sense to me this time.

I'm a little bit older, I'm a little bit surer,
I can fight a bit harder against the tide.
I can make it sound better, Much better than sadder,
But nothing makes sense to me this time.

I thought it was good, I thought it was fine,
I thought it was just a matter of time,
The sun would shine.
I held my breath, I covered my eyes,
Thought I was just clearing the skies,
The sun would shine.

I'm a little bit braver, I'm a little bit wilder,
I can stand a bit closer to the light.
I can stand a bit taller, Like I wouldn't fall over,
But nothing makes sense to me this time.

If fate means you to lose, give him a good fight anyhow.

A True Friend...
Loving you for good reason could be the wrong one...
New quotes...check em out!
The hardest thing to learn in life is which bridge to cross and which -- To burn
Gentlemen with broad chests and ambitious intentions do sometimes disappoint their friends by failing to carry the world before them
I'm just trying to enjoy this time, because I may never get another chance to control my destiny.
life ain't always beautiful, but its a beautiful ride...
There will always be that one person who will always have your heart...
Little by little, I've come a long, long way
Picking up the pieces that you threw away
Did you give it up or did I let you down?
Either way it don't matter cause I'm finally coming round
I hope you find where you belong
Hello, goodbye, life goes on
~Blake Shelton~
Life is too short to live like this,
Too tired to try,
To scared to quit.
~Rocky Lynne~
I can't quote the book, the chapter or the verse. You can't tell me it all ends with a slow ride in a hearse. You know I'm more and more convinced the longer that I live, yeah this can't be all there is...
~Brooks and Dunn~
I'm not afraid to admit,
I'm just that small town kid...
things will come & things will go
one thing i know for sure is that
you don't give a damn about me
& so i'm walkin out the door
It's hard to wait around for something that you know might never happen, but it's even harder to give up, when you know it's everything you want."
Sick and tired of being sick and tired...
The future ain't much clearer, but I ain't looking in the rearview mirror...
He's got a PhD and a nice ass...lets not get caught up in ethics.
       ~Must Love Dogs
If I say it enough, it might come true, I've forgotten you...
Can't you see that I've  moved on
No, I haven't thought about you once since you've been gone...
Its not like she forgot about him, shes just dealing with the pain...
Everyone knows I'm in over my head...
