That Crazy Italian Lady
-dedicated to my grandma (I asked her what to blog about and said herself)
There once was an old women,
she worked a hard life raising three children.
She raised them the best she can,
with the help of her beloved man.
She loved that man with her whole heart,
it must have been love right from the start.
They grew old together and supported each other,
after helping each other they then helped another.
Her time raising her children was quite hard,
She played with them, being no yard.
She raised them with an iron fist,
You may think this is much but it is just first on the list.
Her heart was as big as her kitchen,
she never knew where she was able to pitch in.
Everyone in her house would be stuffed,
but to her that was never enough.
No one would ever leave her house unfed,
if they did, "COME BACK" she always said.
They were lavished with spaghetti and meatballs,
they would be so stuffed they were about to fall.
She never knew when her hospitality was enough,
she treated you right with all that good stuff.
Her home was not hers, it was the whole street's,
she is use to comments like "Oh that is so sweet!"
Now in her old days she is just the same,
her family is now comfortable with calling her insane.
Not once has she ever thought of herself,
her belongings, like something you could take off a shelf.
She was most talked about on her street
she was famous for being so sweet.
Her love like a big bowl of gravy

Is it really possible to live forever?
“We all die. The goal isn’t to live forever. The goal is to create something that will.- Chuck Palahniuk
I find that this quote has a significant meaning. This quote is almost whispering the meaning of out society. In our society today, people want to become famous. They want to go down in history and be read about in books or anywhere for that matter. That is exactly what this quote is telling you to do. It is telling you to do something that is worth living or making a difference. We all know that we can not live forever and Chuck is telling us to take advantage of our lives. We can take advantage of our lives by doing something great. Apart from the meaning, this quote gives me a happy feeling. This may only be me but this quote makes me happy that we can do something that will be history. I feel that even after I do die, there will be a small part of me still here. the mood or theme of this quote is just inspirational. I most certainly feel inspired when I examine this quote. There is nothing about this quote that is not inspiring.
A song with an excellent meaning, such as this quote, is “Forever young”. In the song living forever is mentioned in the chorus. Then it goes on to say “Do you really want to live forever?” That was truly a great question. Sometimes people say that they want to live forever. I think that they are confusing some things. What they should want to do is make something that will be forever and in history. The simple fact is that no one can live forever. That would be sad to live forever and no one else live forever, wouldn’t it? As the song ends it says “So many dreams are swinging out in the blue.” This is self explanatory meaning that you have all these dreams but they fading away. It then states “Well then let them come true.” If everyone did all the dreams that they had then they can live forever. They would go down in history for doing what they wanted. No one lives forever or is going going to be forever young. We should make something that will live forever.
In the world today people are doing incredible things. Just last night the Grammy’s was on television. The people that won the awards there or performed there, are not going to live forever. They are making things that not everyone has the ability to say they did. They made things in there lives that are bigger then life and will always be remembered in someone’s mind. Everyone has the ability to do what they are doing. If not what they were doing then something just as big. That show spoke more to me then just seeing famous people win awards. It told me that if I try hard and work towards my dreams I can do anything that I want to do. It is a great country that we live in. In this country we all have the chance to make it big and famous. Why would someone not want to be famous?
I am deeply inspired by this quote. This has great meaning. I might even be able to say that I have never read a quote that so full of meaning. When reading this quote I get happy. It gives such great hope that I can do what I want to do. There are many things in my life that I would like to do before I die. We all may not be able to live forever. Though in a way it is like we all have a chance to live forever.

The meaning of communication
Communication is the ability to talk to others effectively. This is how you interact with the people around you. Communication gives you the power to talk to other people. The picture to the side shows how people must communicate. This shows that without communication the world would not be as connected as we are today. This is a giant role in any human being's life. We use communication everyday of our lives. This is how we learn in school, get directions, everything we do is through communication. There are many different forms of communication. There are cell phones, computers, social network, talking, etc. This blog is a form of communication If communication was not present, people start to mess up on everyday things.
Without communication the world would be a very different place. Many wars have happened or were stopped from happening through communication. A very recent event happened in the world through communication. The people of the country of Egypt used a form of communication to their advantage. The mass of the people had various online accounts and they used these accounts to talk to each other about a revolution. This caused all of the people to form a protest and chaos has been a result. Without communication that protest would have been very different, or it wouldn't have happened.
Communication plays a colossal role in my life. Much of school work is done through communication over the internet. I use multiple forms of communication on a daily basis. I use a facebook account to keep in contact with my friends, I own a cellphone, have a blog, and I talk to the people around me.Without communication we would not know what to do and when we had to do it. I personally would be lost without communication. I am the type of person who has to talk to people to know what to do. I like to be told exactly what to do in things such as projects. Almost everything we do, is done through communication.
