The beauty of Facebook with family members..
My mom just posted this with the comment "Absolutely!"
I agree, trade school is a viable option but currently one may still need FAFSA to attend. So, it's not a way to get out of student loans.
But I laugh because when I was growing up, not attending college was NEVER an option. I imagine the lecture we would have gotten at the kitchen table.
In reality, the talk my four brothers and I actually received was, "Pick one.. engineer or teacher."
But if only you could see yourself in my eyes
You'd see you shine, you shine
I know you'd never leave me behind
But I am lost this time
Are we destined to burn or will we last the night?
I will hold you 'til I hold you right
But if only you could see yourself in my eyes
You'd see you shine, you shine

I'm not a big fan of most cover tunes, but this cover of Purple Rain is very moving.
I hope I'm in your dreams
The way you are in all of my mine
You've got a love so fine
I wish that I could make you mine

for if the stars were
arbitrary, if it meant nothing,
what is there to believe? i want
to believe it all. i want to imagine
that everything on earth knows
more than i do, turns and turns
and carries the timing of life.
instead of a doctrine of subtraction
give me a doctrine of everything
knows. give me the stars and
the heavens, looking down on me
with love and the fullness of time.

What's so funny 'bout peace, love, and understanding?
