“gone running. when i get back, i’m gonna start planning my “Jim Palmer Facebook Tour,” which is basically me showing up at your place expecting you to buy my breakfast…lunch….and dinner, maybe even take me to a movie.”

“Tues, May 4, 6:55 CT (AP): Today Jim Palmer answered angry critics that he has not yet saved the world, despite his claim he really wanted to, and half believed he could. People hurled insults as Palmer as he was running on a Nashville greenway, “Hey Superman, forget to eat your Wheaties!!” At 10:00 CT Palmer issued th…is statement, “I truly regret the suffering that continues in our world. I now realize that I must first end my own suffering.” Palmer then hung a “Gone Running” sign on the podium and was gone, leaving the dismayed crowd stunned.”

“okay…like…i have a HOT date tonight. her name is Jessica. she’s a few years younger than i am but who cares about that stuff anymore. anyway, it’s dinner and American Idol.”
*
“I never had the chance to say goodbye to my mother. There was an ocean of hurt seperating us, and then she was gone. Even Superman couldn’t get there soon enough. Failing to rescue my mother from her depression was the greatest heartache of my childhood. Some memories you carry around inside you like pieces of broken glass.”

“swim. bike. run. love. (repeat)”

“Giving love is the easy part. I didn’t think it would be so hard receiving it. I want your love. But I’m afraid of losing it. You’re here now. But will you be tomorrow? I’ve been around, and I know how this story goes. I heard everything will be okay in the end. It’s not okay; maybe it’s not the end.”

” It’s all the things you won’t say…all the feelings you won’t own or express…all the questions and doubts you won’t voice…it’s what you’re thinking but not saying…it’s what your hiding…it’s the thing that fear is preventing you from saying, thinking, feeling, owning, and expressing…that makes you so shallow.”

Thanks Jim…
Finally I hear some one else’s pain too, real pain, and now I feel a little better. I am not that alone and messed up after all.
Thank you for sharing you. Keep the eternity thing in mind. Our energy is eternal. We’re not here to suffer, suffer, suffer through the experiences, but we can if we choose. We’re here to experience and then it’s up to us how we chose to BE during those experiences, and what we choose to see and learn from those experiences. Be grateful for each experience, seriously, be grateful and the load is lightened.
Eternity is beautiful, and in all eternity I find great peace. A peace that makes me aware now. A peace that I can count on cuz I’m eternal, and so are You. Let it all go….let all suffering go, and just Be no matter what the experience is. Stop judging everything as something to suffer from. Let it Be. The experiences will keep happening but what one chooses to do with the experiences will change as one stops judging everything from a suffering perspective.
Life is joy, if we choose. Dance in it. Dance with Life no matter what anyone else says or does. And during the hard times, remember eternity, cuz this little experience is a flick in all eternity….don’t make it anymore than that.
Your tat is perfect.
