This is one of my favorite things I have ever seen. I think Amy might have been the first one who showed it to me,. It was either her or my cousin Maria. I don't really remember....
I listen to it every once in a while when i get stressed out, and it always makes me feel like things are where they belong again.
I'm listening to it right now, and I guess I was just thinking how lucky these kids were. What a way to enter the real world.
Anyways, I found out it was Kurt Vonnegut that gave it.
Vonnegut is one of my favorite authors, so it makes sense that I would love it i guess.
My favorite line?
DONT BE RECKLESS WITH OTHERS PEOPLE'S HEARTS AND DONT PUT UP WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE RECKLESS WITH YOURS.
But it's all really good, and something I want to start listening to even more often.
this was a hit song in 99, i remember when it came out. sweet song, too.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know Kurt Vonnegut gave it.
ReplyDeleteWho is Baz Lurhman?
Oh. He's the guy who did it musically. Got it. And Kurt gave it as a commencement speech? Mary Schmich wrote it. Or did Kurt Vonnegut not give it? I'm confused. I don't understand this Wikipedia article.

Either way I love it and it is in my sophomore year journal forever.
I LOVE YOU.
