Is it realized.......
I would first like to introduce myself, for I am new to this place. My name is Amy, I wish all of you, the best and peace. If given only one chance to express my feelings about this group, I suppose it would be, to wonder, if they really know, if they realize, the impact they have. On the people they have touched with…

Posed to endure . . .
"Posed to endure what I could not forgive." I hate the truth in that line. As long as I hang on to the anger, it hurts me so much more than the other person. It forces me to endure the situation and the raw pain associated with it over and over again. How can one person write words and phrases that so deeply touch my soul?…

The Meaning Of "Alive"
As many of you, I'm sure all of you love "Alive" and it's such a great kick ass rock song with Mike's sick ass riff! It's a hell of an awesome song and listening to the song, I always interpreted as being a positive message, like Eddie finding out about his biological father's death and finding out about his step-father…

YL an anti-war song??
Found this in Wikipedia (I know, I know----you take that site with a grain of salt) BUT I thought this was interesting about YL and thought others might not have heard this either: The song title "Yellow Ledbetter" is derived from the actual name of an old friend of Vedder from Chicago, named Tim Ledbetter.[2] The lyrics…

Ten: Each song and how it is connected to my life
Just as a little side note, I'm sixteen and mom influenced my becoming a PJ fanatic. Ten: 1) Once - I have virtually no control over my actions (ADHD) 2) Even Flow - Karma, simply said, what goes around comes around. 3) Alive - When Vedder wrote this, I believe, he had in his mind at the beginning the fact that he lost his…

Alive and incest?
Direct quotes from Eddie, circa 1992 state: "It's about incest; and it's about murder; and you know all those good things. And if you can picture it in your mind, the third song takes place in a jail cell. So this is our own little mini-opera here." --EV, 6/18/92 (http://www.fivehorizons.com/songs/dec99/index.shtml)…
