If you haven’t already, check out Microsoft’s new anti-virus and anti-malware protection. It is free for genuine Windows users and available for Windows XP, Vista, and 7 in both 32-bit and 64-bit varieties. Be sure to uninstall your current anti-virus solution first. I have it installed on my notebook and I’ll be giving MSE a thorough test drive. If you’d like to learn more Ars Technica has a nice review of MSE here. Alternatively, if you’d like to jump right in you can get Security Essentials here.
RIM has updated BlackBerry Wallet to verion 1.0.1.23 which is now compatible with the BlackBerry Tour. For all of you Tour users out there…if you were disappointed like I was that BlackBerry Wallet was not working, upgrade now! You can install BlackBerry Wallet via App World.
Just like that, I’m back. Ready to kick the tires and light the fires. All is well in my world.
Another song that hits close to home is Kid Rock’s “When You Love Someone”.
I tell you it will shake the earth beneath your feet
The light that shines will redefine your old beliefs
What you reap is what you sow and so it goes
Where you plant your needs is where your garden grows
Before you think about yourself
Think of someone else, it will make you feel
Each day ain’t wine and roses
I doubt it’s meant to be
Always a cross to bear salvation don’t come free
A heart that beats is a heart that bleeds
And you know that’s true
So don’t deny yourself of something good for you
Before you do it for yourself, do it for someone else
That makes it real
‘Cause when you love someone
It don’t matter what you say
When you love someone
You will dance the night away
When you love someone
There ain’t nothing you can’t do
Ain’t that right
Yeah I want to love someone tonight
Will you believe in love or just sit around and judge?
Can you forgive someone or will u hold a grudge?
Cuz above selfishness there lies a bright blue sky
And wealth and happiness can be a long and lonesome ride
Yes it’s hard to steer yourself
Without that someone else to take the wheel
Take the wheel
Do you believe in the art of growing old
Do you believe that rock n roll can save your soul
Do you believe in everything you do
Cuz when you do that’s when it all comes back to you
Before you think about yourself
Think of someone else
Do it for yourself
And do it for someone else
I find it more difficult to forgive myself, than it is for me to forgive others. Linkin Park’s “What I’ve Done” just played in my playlist. Somehow, it rings so true for me right now. The lyrics are below:
In this farewell
There’s no blood
There’s no alibi
‘Cause I’ve drawn regret
From the truth
Of a thousand lies
So let mercy come
And wash away
What I’ve done
I’ll face myself
To cross out what I’ve become
Erase myself
And let go of what I’ve done
Put to rest
What you thought of me
While I clean this slate
With the hands of uncertainty
For what I’ve done
I start again
And whatever pain may come
Today this ends
I’m forgiving what I’ve done!
What I’ve done
Forgiving what I’ve done
