My macbook pro froze while trying to update today so i did a force shutdown of my mac (help power button down for 10 seconds) when i went to turn on my mac and log in it brought me to the screen with the mac icon in the center and the spinning icon under it and it sits there trying to load but nothing happens. i would simply just do a reinstall of the system but i do not have the install cd's.
 
Hehe... "I am out of food and would like to drive my car to the grocery store, but I don't have the keys to my own car."

That's what a computer is without the system install CDs/DVDs -- a car without keys: useless, or will become useless shortly when a problem or need arises.

You can try a "Singe User" boot (easily found with a Google search) and run "fsck -y" to try and repair any system damage, but ideally, you really need to boot from a CD or DVD and repair the system on the hard drive.
