I can't really tell... but it seems you tried to start minecraft before all the assets (resources, libraries, textures and sounds) for minecraft were downloaded.
To fix this:

1. Try launching the launcher and wait for it to complete with downloads and then start minecraft.
2. If that still doesn't work go to

   /Users/myaccount/Library/Application Support/

   and delete the minecraft folder and repeat step 1
3. Post another log here and I'll look into it for more solutions

Ok I am a single mom with boys and HAVE NO idea what is going on. So when you say start the launcher then play minecraft you mean just press play how else do you start it. Oh gosh I am screwed here haha.

I guess what I am saying is. I went to the minecraft website. paid for the download and clicked download it downloaded some launcher on the computer and that is all I have. Then we signed in and clicked play and nothing. Not sure if I am missing something else
Thank You

Well... You could also try to delete this file:
/Users/myaccount/Library/Application Support/minecraft/versions/1.6.2/1.6.2-natives-1376758852075384000/liblwjgl.jnilib

And see if it works then...
