On my way back from the restaurant, I was listening to an interview featuring Don McLean. He was the writer and singer of American Pie. To my surprise it was mentioned there have been colleges that studied the meaning of this song and books have been written about it. McLean essentially said the song was about how America was going the wrong direction. He stated that this song was a new genre of music for its time. He also stated that he considers himself a thinker and his thoughts of the time were put into the lyrics of this song. Even with this most recent interview, he says America is still going in the wrong direction. Aside from all this, he made a statement that got me thinking, and I would like to hear what you think. He said everyone (and he stressed everyone) struggles to keep their sanity. The struggle is a fight that we all must do and continue to do. What do you all think....do you find yourself fighting to keep your sanity?

I assume American Pie is about this struggle that America is losing with. .....who knows, it might pertain to more of the world today.


I do not think too many will admit they are struggling to keep their sanity, but, it might be something to think about as well. However, if Mr. McLean is right, maybe that may change some of our perspectives toward others. After all, we are all fighting.

Happiest Girl In The World

dreams will come true,
if you try,
you will fly
there's always something good
around a corner,
i used to think
that was a lie.

and you may think this is the end,
you'll never make another friend,
but you're wrong...

i gotta be the
happiest girl in the world right now,
i thought my friend had let me down
but she didn't,
oh no she didn't,
now i am the winning girl,
the one filled with glee,
my eyes have adjusted,
now i can see
that i really must be
the happiest girl in the world.
love will happen,
if you believe,
you will achieve,
there's always someone there
who loves you
more than you could conceive,

and you may think this is some junk,
you'll say "what-ev, that girl's a punk",
but you're wrong,

gotta be that happy girl,
hidden somewhere in this world,
loving something more than
anyone could imagine...

gotta be the...

happiest girl in the world!.....
