Something For The Pain - Bon Jovi
Happiness, its been no friend to me
But forever after aint what its all cracked up to be
Yeah, I had a taste, you were my fantasy
But I lost my faith when I hit reality
I dont need no guru to tell me what to do
When your feeling like a headline on
Yesterdays news
Come on, come on, come on
Give me something for the pain
Give me something for the blues
Give me something for the pain when
I feel Ive been danglin from a hang-mans noose
Give me something I can use
To get me through the night
Make me feel all right,
Something like you
Loneliness has found a home in me
My suitcase and guitar are my only family
Ive tried to need someone, like they needed me
I opened up my heart, but all I did was bleed
I dont need no lover, just to get screwed
They dont make a bandage, thats going to cover my bruise
Come on, come on, come on
Give me something for the pain
Give me something for the blues
Give me something for the pain when
I feel Ive been danglin from a hang-mans noose
Give me something I can use
To get me through the night
Make me feel all right,
Something like you
Pull me under (help Im falling)
Run through my veins (night is calling)
To a place (feels like Im flying)
Where I feel no pain (christ Im dying)
Be the pillow under my head
Cover me when Im in your bed
Take me higher than Ive ever been
Take me down and back again
Come to me, be my disguise
Open your coat, let me crawl inside
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Give me something for the pain
Give me something for the blues
Give me something for the pain when
I feel Ive been danglin from a hang-mans noose
Give me something I can use
To get me through the night
Make me feel all right,
Something like you

Oh AD I have no reply to that song but you made me think of a poem I saw that makes me think of you all.
Attitude
is everything
Attitude is the way you think. Your attitude is something other people can actually see. They can hear it in your voice, see it in the way you move, feel it when they are with you.
Your attitude expresses itself in everything you do, all the time, where ever you are.
Positive attitudes always invite positive results. Negative attitudes always invite negative results.
Attitudes makes a difference evry hour, every day, in everything that you do for your entire life.
What you get out of each thing you do will equal the attitude you have when you do it.
Anything you do with a positive attitude will work for you.
Anything you do with a negative attitude will work against you.
If you have a positive attitude, you are looking for ways to solve the problems that you can solve and you are letting go of the things over which you have no control.
You can develop a positive attitude by emphasizing the good, by being tough minded and by refusing defeat.
Not all of this poem I hear, only the positives. But the bold bit always makes me think of you all as we are all fighters :biggrin

Attitude...hmmm,
reminds me of this song
Attitude - Metallica
Suppose I say
I'm never satisfied
Suppose I say
You cut some root
To make the tree survive
Just let me kill you for a while
Just let me kill you for a smile
Just let me kill you once
I'm oh so bored to death
Ohhhh, I hunger
I hunger
I eat
Born Into Attitude
Asleep at the wheel
Throw all your bullets in the fire
And run like hell
Why cure the fever?
What ever happened to sweat?
Suppose I say
the vultures smile at me
Suppose I say
I've sent them down
And they plan to pick you clean
And satifaction this way comes
And satifaction this way comes
And satifaction's here and gone, gone
Yeah gone again
Oooh, I hunger
Ooh I hunger
I eat
Born Into Attitude
Asleep at the wheel
Throw all your bullets in the fire
And stand there
Born Into Attitude
Twist mother tongue
Throw all your bullets in the fire
And run like hell
Why cure the fever?
What ever happened to sweat?
[Solo]
Just let me kill you for a while
Just let me kill you for a smile
Just let me kill you once for me
I'm bored to death
And satifaction this way comes
And satifaction this way comes
And satifaction's here and gone, gone
gone again
Yeah I hunger
Oooh I hunger
I eat
Born Into Attitude
Asleep at the wheel
Throw all your bullets in the fire
And stand there
Born Into Attitude
Twist mother tongue
Throwing all your bullets in the fire
And run like hell
Why cure the fever?
What ever happened to sweat?

Music & Poems are good for the soul.
Heres my song
Better love next time - Dr Hook
I'm your friend, you can talk to me
I read your face, I see misery
Cause the one you love has left you dry
Don't start believing that you're gonna die
Just pick your heart up off the floor and try, try again
chorus
You'll find better love next time baby
Don't give up and I know you'll find better love next time baby
Someone will be waiting down the line with better love
better love, better love...next time
Sometimes its bad, not to let it all go
I've been there and I think I should know
So have a good cry, wash out your heart
If you keep it inside, it will tear you apart
Sometimes you lose, what you're gonna win
If you just, if you just... hang on in
chorus
This song makes me want to try harder with my health :biggrin

Only Sixteen
She was only sixteen, only sixteen
But I loved her so
But she was too young to fall in love
And I was too young to know
We'd laugh and we'd sing and do funny things
And it made our hearts glow
But she was too young to fall in love
And I was too young to know
So why did I give my heart so fast
It never will happen again
But I was a mere child of sixteen
I've aged a year since then
She was only sixteen, only sixteen
Ooh, with eyes that would glow
But she was too young to fall in love
And I was too young to know
So why did I give my heart so fast
It never will happen again
But I was a mere child of sixteen
I've aged a year since then
Now she was only sixteen, only sixteen
Ooh, but I loved that girl so
But she was too young to fall in love
And I was too young to know
Yes, she was too young to fall in love
And I, I was too young
I was much too young to know

Yeah!
You forgot Storms Never Last :biggrin
Chorus
Storms never last do they baby,
Bad times are passed with the wind
Your hand in mine steals the thunder
and you make the sun want to shine.
You followed me down so many roads,
I picked wild flowers and sung you some sad songs
and every road we took, lord knows our search was for the truth
and the clouds moving down, would be the last.
chorus
Storms never last do they baby (they don't last oh no)
bad times, bad times, bad times are passed
Your hand in mine steals the thunder (steals the thunder)
and you make the sun want to shine.
AD: Do you know any country, Rock n roll, etc... as well?

The Devil Went Down to Georgia - Charlie Daniels
The devil went down to Georgia
He was looking for a soul to steal
And he was in a bind
'Cause he was way behind
And was willin' to make a deal
When he came accross this young man sawin' on a fiddle
and playin' it hot
And the devil jumped up on a hickory stump and said,
"Boy let me tell you what:
I guess you didn't know it
but I'm a fiddle player too,
And if you care to take a dare
I'll make a bet with you
Now you play a pretty good fiddle boy
But give the devil his due
I'll bet a fiddle of gold against your soul
'Cause I think I'm better than you."
The boy said, "My name's Johnny
And it might be a sin
But I'll take your bet, your gonna regret
'Cause I'm the best that's ever been."
Johnny rosin up your bow and play your fiddle hard
'Cause hell's broke loose in Georgia
And the devil deals the cards
And if you win you get this shiney fiddle made of gold
But if you lose the devil gets your soul.
The devil opened up his case and he said,
"I'll start this show."
And fire flew from his fingertips
As he rosined up his bow
And he pulled the bow across the strings
And it made a evil hiss
Then a band of demons joined in
And it sounded something like this
When the devil finished Johnny said,
"Well you're pretty good ol' son!
But sit down in that chair right there
And let me show you how it's done!"
Fire on the mountain, run boys run
Devil's in the house of the rising sun
A chicken in the breadpan, picking out dough
Granny does your dog bite? No, child, no
The devil bowed his head
Because he knew that he'd been beat,
And he laid that golden fiddle
On the ground at Johnny's feet
Johnny said, "Devil, just come on back
if you ever wanna try again.
I done told you once,
You son-of-a-bitch,
I'm the best that's ever been!"
He played:
Fire on the mountain, run boys run
Devil's in the house of the rising sun
A chicken in the breadpan, picking out dough
Granny will your dog bite? No, child, no

That reminds me of this song ....Better the devil you know by Sonya
Better the devil, devil...yeah, yeah
He don't do things to make me blue,
you know my love is always true.
They don't do things to make me cry
I just can't sleep at night
you know I love everyday
it breaks my heart (yeah yeah) when he goes away
Chorus
Better the devil you know, than the devil you don't
I'll give you my heart and soul if you give me your love
Better the devil you know, than the devil you don't.
He tells me he loves me most, everyday
I'm out of my head not knowing what to say
he never plays around like other guys do
he's got the key to my heart and my love is true
you know I love him everyday
it breaks my heart (yeah yeah) when he goes away
Chorus
Better the devil you know, than the devil you don't
I'll give you my heart and soul if you give me your love
Better the devil you know, than the devil you don't.
(oh no) don't tell me lies boy (oh no) and don't make me cry
(oh no) and don't tell me lies (oh no) and don't say goodbye
(better the devil) better the devil, you know than the devil you don't.

Just wanting to say what's on my mind....
Today I had a visit from my birth dad. It is always good to see him but today he told me about a question my 28 yr half sister had asked him.
"Dad, with all the problems Cherie has to deal with, does she resent you and her mother?"
My father being a comedian replied, "Its better than the alternative"
He had to explain that one to her then he said "that's a silly question"
It made me think that no it's not a silly question but my sister should have asked me
and as I thought I realised that if my sister truly knows me, she wouldn't needed to have asked.
The question did bring back memories of when I first met my birth parents and their own families.
I was 16 when I met my birth parents and the hardest thing for me to deal with was the expression in their eyes (I'm so sorry) every time they looked at me.
There was alot of guilt from both my parents and before we could move forward and build a relationship, they had to get past their guilts.
Sometimes people dispite their best intentions, they end up hurting you. My birth parents made me feel guilty because they felt guilty. So everytime I saw the look, it reminded me that I was hurting them.
It took awhile but by talking through our feelings and issues we were able to accept each other's thoughts and feelings on Thalassaemia and then move on.
I accept how they feel and they accept that I'm normal.
Now 20 years later I have a solid relationship with both parents and when we talk about Thalassaemia its just part of the conversation. Nothing more or less.
I've always believed that I have a normal life. I can't miss what I've never had, so I don't.
