Poem Number Two

All day I felt like writing a poem. The first word that came to mind was “another”, so here it is:

* *** *

Titled: Hidden

Another morning I am blessed to awake.

Day will be filled with sunlight and warmth and

I must ARISE and make the most of it.

Will I go out of my “cave” and experience life? or

Tell everyone that I did but stay behind instead.

My mind tells me “truthfulness is the foundation of all human virtues” but a

Secret is ok… is just for me… is my treasure… yet

To live without experiences is like having a blank sheet:

The hand can write, the pen has ink, the surface is sturdy, the

World is ready, ready for me to go out and… touch it.

* *** *

Hint: Read vertically too. :)

UPDATE: btw I’m straight. :)

  • Firefox Mr. (or Ms.) Internet Nongeek doesn’t need all the fancy extensions that make Firefox the best web development browser out there. Thus, I picked out from my list of Extensions the few that will keep Firefox running fast while also giving it some extra functionality. These along with Firefox’s Quick Searches make Internet browsing much more efficient and should be a reason for making the switch from your current browser:

    All-in-One Sidebar - Puts all of Firefox’s separate windows (Add-ons, Downloads, History) in the Sidebar. Toggle with F4.

    Auto Copy - Select text in Firefox and its automatically copied to the Clipboard. So useful, that I do it in other applications and forget to press Control-C.

    Download Statusbar - Creates a new status bar at the bottom of Firefox that appears when you download a file. No more Downloads Window (or Sidebar). Double click to open the file.

    Flat Bookmark Editing - In the Bookmarks Manager, it enables easy editing of Bookmark information.

    Mouse Gestures - Control Firefox by rightclick-dragging your mouse in certain directions. I pretty much only use the rightclick-drag to the left for Back.

    PDF Download - Short circuits PDF links and asks you if you want to download it to your computer, view it in the browser or open with Adobe Reader.

    Tab History - Click a link that opens a new tab, and that tab will keep the history of the parent tab!

    Tab Mix Plus - Tons of Tabbed Browsing preferences, defaults are cool, but you can download my settings file and import it (in this extension’s Settings) to get a few more tweaks. This extension’s Session Saver is better than Firefox’s default.

    Table Tools - Sorting of tables in any webpage by Control-Click the header, right click the table to copy it as tab-delimited text for easy import into Excel.

    For further (and possibly geeky) Firefox tweaking, check out these 15 cool tips. Ask any questions in the comments and I’ll be sure to try to help you out. :)
