michaelthe1's blog post - thoughts of the day

in my life i've seen the sadness of famous people dying 2 young
actors, comedians, singers
they give us so much n they are gone
sometimes brought on by not being able 2 handle it all
n some times out of their control
today is elvis's birthday
some of his stuff
was a bit before my time but I lived down the street from him n Memphis
n he like b.b.q
will always be king n Memphis

some thoughts from elvis

Rock and roll music, if you like it, if you feel it, you can't help but move to it. That's what happens to me. I can't help it.'

Truth is like the sun. You can shut it out for a time, but it ain't goin' away.

Ambition is a dream with a V8 engine.

Rhythm is something you either have or don't have, but when you have it, you have it all over.

The Lord can give, and the Lord can take away. I might be herding sheep next year.

at heart elvis just wanted 2 be normal n he could not

The image is one thing and the human being is another. It's very hard to live up to an image, put it that way.

When I was a boy, I always saw myself as a hero in comic books and in movies. I grew up believing this dream.

I think I have something tonight that's not quite correct for evening wear. Blue suede shoes.

I never expected to be anybody important.

It's human nature to gripe, but I'm going ahead and doing the best I can.

happy birthday elvis
Memphis will always love the king
n ok b.b.q 2



2 truly live it requires passion
