Yay Me and Quote Number 6

"Fear not death, for the sooner we die, the longer shall we be immortal"
Benjamin Franlkin


why did i choose this quote?

there has been a lot of talk lately about the end of the world and it scares me to death. actually, any talk to death/dieing scares the living daylights out of me. anyone else feel that way? if yes, why do we feel that way? shouldn't we be happier instead, cause like Benjamin says, the sooner we die, the better off we are. are we scared because we're not 100percent sure we're going to Heaven or because we're selfish and can't really stand the thought of dying? well for me, it's a litte of both, but more of the selfish part. but i can't help it, there's soo much stuff i want to do before i expire and i just live living on earth, since its the only place i've ever lived on. is that such a bad thing? that i don't want to leave what i now know as home? i dunno, but i'd rather not think about it. i try to avoid all talk to death untill i have to deal with it, but today, as you can see, i made an exception. but all in all, i have to AGREE with Benjamin Franklin on this one.

ON THE BRIGHTER SIDE:

i just updated my blog. as you can see, i added a current contest thingy and i know have THREE COLUMNS! Yay me. lol. it took me a while to find the right place with the right instructions and everything but i did it and i think my blog looks better. don't you agree? so i'm super proud of myself. but anyways, for those who are having trouble, like i did, finding the right website with the right codes for another sidebar, click here. their instructions are really easy to follow, even if you're not an HTML wiz. actually the website has like everything you need for blogger. i'll be going there more often. it's a great help, especially for us new bloggers...hehe
