Who started this? Thanks, whoever you are. I love sharing.

hmmm.... How is my life different cuz of U2? It's hard to say. All I know is
that I am not the same spoiled, whiney, selfish *brat* that came here to this
city for college in the fall of 1995 with my Mommy holding me by the hand. It
was around that time that I started getting into U2, I mean, REALLY getting into
U2. I started really *listening* to their music and they grew from being those
guys from Ireland with the singer with the cool voice, to being one of the
biggest influences in my life.

Hard to say anything specific (which would also take too long :)), but they are
always there. There as in a shoulder to cry on, get hope from: "it's alright,
it's alright, it's alright..." There as in ready to scold me if I'm thinking of
doing something selfish or NOT doing something:"angry words won't stop the
fight, two wrongs won't make it right..." and "one life with each other,
sisters, brothers... one life you got to do what you should..." Whenever
something comes up, there's Bono's voice in my head, telling me what to do,
showing the way, or at least giving support.

U2 is everywhere and they are such a huge part of my life now that I wonder how
I ever did without them.

Now, I'm gonna go home and cue the VCR for the show tonight!
