Year 2, Day 248: Waiting for the World to Change

Waiting On The World To Change—John Mayer

Me and all my friends
we're all misunderstood
they say we stand for nothing and
there's no way we ever could
now we see everything that's going wrong
with the world and those who lead it
we just feel like we don't have the means
to rise above and beat it

so we keep waiting
waiting on the world to change
we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change

it's hard to beat the system
when we're standing at a distance
so we keep waiting
waiting on the world to change
now if we had the power
to bring our neighbors home from war
they would have never missed a Christmas
no more ribbons on their door
and when you trust your television
what you get is what you got
cause when they own the information, oh
they can bend it all they want

that's why we're waiting
waiting on the world to change
we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change

it's not that we don't care,
we just know that the fight ain't fair
so we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change

and we're still waiting
waiting on the world to change
we keep on waiting waiting on the world to change
one day our generation
is gonna rule the population
so we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change

we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change

I got to the gym at 8:15AM this morning, and it was great timing. No one was there and I had the place to myself. I was a little worried about the size of the crowd I would find since the parking lot was so full. But the real crush of people came at 9:30AM when I was leaving. Today, totally by accident, I pushed the 'hill' setting. It made, unsurprisingly, for a much harder workout! I only got to 6 miles in 60 minutes and by then I was quite tired and thought I had hurt myself (I didn't), but mile four remains an ass-kicker no matter what. DON'T FORGET TO VOTE.

Fortunately we don't have electronic voting here in Great Neck so we have a good chance that our ballots will be counted accurately. It's hard to think about anything else. Love, MOM
