This was no ordinary affair.  No agendas were presented to the delegates. The delegates were two. Three seemed like a crowd. There was something special about tonight. Nothing loud, just right. Candles paved the way. The flicker in the hallways was alright. Never mind the who or what, feel the heat of the moment. Tonight lips only an option, words were a taboo. The invisible crowd in the background held their breath awaiting her arrival. His heart beats were in unknown territory. He too awaited her arrival on the long forgotten midnight express.

The view from her window revealed street lights and vivid moving objects. Her eyes could only see his smile. His laid back form and ways relaxed her. Her eyes and looks unleash mystical powers that freeze him in a heavenly garden with her playing in the background. He wants to lip touch those rosy edible cheeks she has on her pretty, pretty face. Simple luscious drippings of chocolate cover the walls. With a whoosh of fresh air he feels her arrival, she knocks instead of ringing, how original he thinks?

The shimmering candle light reflects shadows of butterflies and hummingbirds in her footsteps, she enters with elegance, he takes a breath. She stops, turns around and so arrogantly, yet gracefully pecks him a kiss, barely noticeable to the viewers. His heartbeats ignite for the first time, he is alive and suddenly in love, and that was how our story begins. She knew it was real, for her feel was alive from her head to her heel, heal me she pleads, all I ask is the real feel tonight.

Like a little boy, he felt lost in a field of virgin waters, “what now”? he thought, she looked at him from the distant and said with her eyes “ follow me”. Her wish was his command, no demands whatsoever, no questions asked, he followed with a sense of thrill like no other. She lured him closer, that poor little boy, or was he? Wow! he wondered, to live the moment in the heat of that very moment, moment by moment, Imagine! every minute counted, all they counted on was their inner children to guide them through the darkness, the candles were there for the viewers.

He makes a move closer, she moves closer, he can feel the heat rising. She talks and he listens, she observes him hearing every breath she takes, for every breath she takes, and every move she makes, he watches her. He can’t seem to be able to hold his stallions from making a move, he has been fighting them back from the first time he laid eyes on her. Suddenly one Alpha male Arabian Stallion breaks loose, in a split second the herd is on the move. He grabs her closer from behind her neck and bites her lower lips with little cherry flavored lollipop actions. She surrenders to his sudden attack.

Exploration was never easy he thought, every inch of this masterpiece must be travelled thoroughly, not leaving a place untouched or caressed, he begins his travels with nothing but his bare hands and lips. He finds areas so fruitful he leaves for last, he sets out to search for more bounties on this unspoiled island, he knows where to look, as if guided by some internal guiding system, he sets the speed to crawl. She opens an eye to see where he is, although every inch he travels he leaves traces of goosebumps, her eyes witness him totally focused on his discoveries.

He watches her watching him, she arouses him even more with those oh so seductive luring eyes of hers, he feels her soft strong build, her body aches, his trembles, they hear a roar coming from behind and find two horses, one white, one black saddled up and ready to take them away, they jump on, into the night the two make love, the sounds that echoed in the hallways seemed to be a mixture of screaming winds, ocean waves, waterfalls and towards the end, fading waves hitting the shore line. Some say they were last seen doing what they do best on some deserted lush tropical Island sending the same sounds every night into the airwaves to remind people of the future of their daily rituals.

He had the best problem any man could have. Every time he completes a discovery in her mysterious inviting body he finds something else to attend to, even I envy the lucky devil!

At the time of publication she was not able to make any comments, her looks only spelt one thing: satisfaction. In the background he replenished his energy with a full spoon of that fine mountain honey

Every day we face something that moves us away or closer to our safety zone, comfort zone, box, whatever people call it, in my book its just what we are used to. Like sitting in a boat in the middle of the ocean, one wave pushes you out, and another pulls you back, without an oar, your sitting duck.

Life has many aspects to it that we seem to handle flawlessly, in many cases, we don’t know what to do, so we either move towards this new feeling or threat, in the same thinking pattern as “ the best defense is offense” or we hide and wait for the storm to pass, the problem with this one is, some storms seem to hover over your head, until you make your move.

As you grow younger, your internal guidance system handles most of your responses in auto pilot mode, if auto pilot was that good, why do we still need captains?

Change in lifestyle and atmospheres means adaptation,maneuverability, and change to the wise, and to the others, it means disaster. Comfort zone expansion is a relatively new idea to many, but let me share with you today my take on the subject.

We have to learn how to Smile n wave, at least for a while.

• If someone threatens you by their looks or power and you have nothing to do, smile n wave. Everyone gets his time, and everyone is special in his own way.
• If your boss manages to humiliate you for the day, smile n wave. The tables always turn on the idiots, its only a matter of time.
• If you lose it all on Wall street or main street, smile n wave, as my Idol Virgin records creator & serial entrepreneur & visionary Sir Richard Branson puts it” business ideas are like buses, there’s always another one coming soon”.
• If someone hurts your feelings intentionally and shatters your heart, smile n wave, hearts are meant to be broken, and their heart will face the same in some distant time, what goes around, comes around.
• If someone takes away their kids from their mom and makes her crumble, smile n wave. In the end your kids have a certain feel and pull towards their moms heart, no one can stop.
• If your lover or wanna be lover makes it hard to understand them, makes it hard to break in, smile n wave, you are what you are, and me and you know how great you are, their loss, your gain, you get to explore more.
• If your parents treat you bad when you are young, and don’t understand that you too have a personality, just do what I would do, smile n wave, you eventually show them how great you are, by becoming you, and welcoming them in with unconditional love.
• If he took you for granted and handled your feelings with total chaos, look him in the eye, and smile n wave. You know what? nothing kills a guy or girl more than losing the best thing that ever happened to them to a total stranger who gets to enjoy a more ripe individual and indulges in their love.
• If you get abused for your race, face, or place in the world, smile n wave and please tell me of a thing that stood the test of time? or did all the dictators of the world, every single one of them face his destiny and crumble to their knees? keep waving! ok you can stop now, stop! ok if you insist let’s do it one more time, this time high in the air, like morons, but instead of smiling and waving, this time wave and smile!
• If the pressures of your days tries to break you and presses even harder, push it away for a second and squeeze a smile n wave in its face, pressures make you stronger and if you manage them will make you softer in the right places.
• If you think that my talk is totally whack and crazy, do what I just did, smile n wave, wave n smile

Life is a bunch of Islands, if you like where you live, then OK, if you don’t and think the bigger Island promises more of everything, then hop on, but never, never let them captivate your soul, and if you catch my wave, then Islands are living ideas, feelings, people, things, places and most of all temporary parking spaces, only turn off your switch when you feel the feel is right, otherwise, hit the road Jack! oh and one for the road

• & wave, & wave!

This one goes out to all the car lovers out there, I guess this is my other side…Gangsta!

p.s. You can AKS me about any slang word or car you don’t get in this song of Luda… you have to check it out on Youtube 2 miles an hour

Yeah.. we gon’ send this one out to e’rybody that put mo’ into they cars than they do they relationship

Let’s ride

Two miles an hour, so everybody sees you

It’s get out, put my pedal to the flo’ and let’s roll! Yesss, 7 cars, 8 cribs and ain’t a damn thing changed, I’m still pumpin 10 kickers, still grippin the grain

Still candy in the paint, still ridin them thangs. And most my folks would say I’m happy but I still feel pain, Until I, jump in my ride, that’s my only escape

Me and my automobile’s got these neighbors screamin, “Gimme a break!”

It’s a pity how we turn our city into obstacle course, Don’t be mad cause I can’t hold my 500 horses: Lamborghinis and Porsches, Ferraris and Vipers

I’ma wipe the seats witcho’ drool then rub the hood with a diaper, Television on the gas tank, the fuel make the ass stank

I MEAN to be rude, my bass tubes are in a glass tank, Go strap your seatbelts on, go put your money up, Go put your life on the line, go put your honey up

Go spread the word, run and tell all the boys, Time to play or better yet it’s time to bring out them toys

We goin Assign your name in the streets (sign your name in the streets)

Yo, one of my ways of releasin tension while I’m releasin some steam, Even if I just put a fresh coat of wax on I’m makin sure the slippers is clean

The 26’s is mean, shut down the block, nigga picture the fiends.My system supreme, you can feel the knock, just picture the scene.The chickens just scream, whole crew ballin they sick of my team, We gettin the cream, I’m through hollerin, I’m livin my dream, I’m black with a scheme, won’t stop until that fat lady sings

And yeah it’s actual and factual what my faculty brings a car show for whatever we slide and wherever we glide

You can keep your rules and regulations man cause we don’t abide, And we lookin alive, Mercedes Benz, 6 or the 5 In a Beamer, Lexus or Ac’, we don’t know how to act when we drive and I fiend for the ride, I lay back and lean to the side Onlookers and turnin heads is all that’s seen through his eyes, I’m breezin on by, and no doubt, it’s easy to fly,But it’s even better when you slow down or ease to the side

and go I’m ridin up in, GTO’s, and fo’-fo’-two’s Grand Prixs, S-S’s cause we so so cool Ridin Regals or the ‘llacs, we in Chevelles and Verts, Skylarks, motorcycles, ATV’s with the works Malibus and Camaros, T-Birds and Novas,Escalades, Navigators, Expeditions and Rovers, H-2’s and Denalis, pickup trucks with the beams, Crown Vics, Monte Carlos, even Cutlass Supremes are goin Assign your name in the streets (sign your name in the streets)

Why do I see raised eyebrows? yes, love yourself and the rest will follow. Just like respect, when you respect yourself people in turn respect you, who ever saw a shaken personality being respected by the community? so what about love? is it to hard for you to love yourself unconditionally? irrelevant of your surroundings and social or marital status, trust me on this, just like you trust using sunscreen.

When you love yourself, you sleep light at night, when you are taken for a ride or granted, you sleep with a full stomach and you know what that feels like! Loving yourself includes many aspects and rituals during your waking hours, such as;

The People in your life: Surround yourself with the people that are genuine and love you for you, not for material or privileges yo have, once your possessions leave, they will be out of your life in a heartbeat. Find people that make you smile, laugh, think, challenge you, understand your point of view, argue with you, share some of your tastes in life, care for you, adore your cute little nothings, pick you up, lift you to higher grounds. Delete all else.

The Music you listen to: Stop being someone else, listen to what you want, enjoy it, dance to it, memorize it, cherish the memories, its yourself that is enjoying it, not someone else’s ears, they belong to you. Buy or rip off the music you want to hear, share some, and listen to all your favorite ones most of the time, if they like it OK, if not, so what! Speak up and share your love for your music, love it and spell it out, make them know, who said their taste was better than yours? yours Rocks! you have unique tastes, they live as cats,copy cats. You are original, originality drips from you, they walk in your footsteps, without you knowing, you rule the scene.

What you look like: I always believe that people who love themselves always have unique taste, they stand out from the crowd, even if they are wearing the same brand and design, they simply make you look, they make things look better, so do you! Never doubt your looks, you were made to look good, actually to look fabulous, so go ahead and show off, let them envy your every move, your every attention to detail, your own twists to conventional looks, I told you before, you Rock! You know it and I know it, when you wear those old ragged jeans and worn out shirt, you still look like a million bucks, but playing it low profile, wow!

Your self esteem: Blow your own horn as you go along, tell people of your dreams and ambitions, your desires, your ideas, spell it out, and watch them raise your status to magnifique! your self esteem is directly in proportion with your love for your self being, your character, your beliefs, your ideology, your wonderful personality, you paint what you want to look like eventually, unless you want to be part of the crowd and not that portrait at the louvre’. When you do paint your own portrait use vibrant cheerful powerful colors that reflect your personality and powers you posses in you, go ahead and make a splash!

How can you love someone more than yourself before loving you, the source of the love, don’t argue silly arguments with me on this subject, imagine a loving person loving someone, now imagine a person that hates himself loving the same person? you get my drift, now go along and drift some more…

I love me, and eventually people will love me for me, not for what I have, not what I can do, not the powers I may posses, not even my thinking, its a combo if you may, that makes me, and if I don’t love me, you guessed it, they wont consider me for love, unless they can’t see it till its too late, so when I say  I love me, understand me.

To know me is to love me, was made for you & me, so lets all fall in love with the most important person that me and you know, you & me, love knows no boundaries, including your inner self, so go ahead and fill that space with some more love potion.

I never knew that you can learn so much just by wondering around places, seeing and watching different faces and looking at past traces of lost civilizations. It is astonishing just another place to the naked eye, yet so full of wisdom to the person who really looks.You know the saying about living and learning, well if you live long enough you know more than the rest, yet many live longer years and end up empty, as the source of their education was conventional, the ones that really make a difference and leave traces when they leave this earth of ours, are the wonderers, the people that insist on knowing more through interactions and observing their surroundings and other creatures.

Children: Watching young children play was always useful in understanding things I could not figure out, they play and run wildly until they get tired, we train and force ourself to gyms. When left alone, they hide nothing, they cry when they want to, we hide it until it kills us, they laugh at anything and we pretend to be grownups, they are naughty by nature, yet innocent little creatures, we fake it and break it and hide nasty intentions, they call you by your first name, we make them call us uncle and sir and Mrs., what for? They love chocolate for its yummy taste, we avoid it for its nasty side effects without knowing its wonderful feeling booster. I learn daily from children, they are my real idol, they rock my world. The best areas to see them in action is at school playgrounds, in family settings trying to free themselves from the family slavery, malls, airplanes, supermarkets, and the number one area in my opinion when they first enter a large toy store, they get caught up with the wonderful colors and how they will convince you to move in and live here!

Women: Watching women interact together is a whole new ball game to many, they assume that they understand them, yet no man can stand in a football pitch and say he finally found the true meaning of a woman  to the crowd. The delicacy and mere inner components of such a creature are a mystery, and are always sweet, no matter what you say about them , they remain our poets favorite subject, they remain the completing piece of puzzle to this wonderful life.They are your mother, your sister, your daughter, your lover, they surround you with their love and caring, they teach you how to be soft inside, when the world makes you tough. They love to have fun, just like us men, they are mostly misunderstood, they have been trying to prove themselves for centuries now, their time has come to take the reigns of power, the time is now. I could never get enough of their intellect, beauty, sexiness, love, tenderness, thinking, sweetness, rudeness when needed, the way they simply make you forgive them with a cute look, its all it takes to lose a battle. Watch when they want something, watch when they become eager beavers, like a black widow spider luring you to their web and sucking the living daylights out of you, lol. Looking on their bright side, they can make black look white and pave your stones with diamonds and rubies, delicately caress your pain away, slowly yet surely completing you. I need more space for women, I must move on.. Great places to watch females in action are boutique shops, malls, supermarkets and in business settings, actually everywhere there are females they are great to watch

Men: They are surely obsessed with their testosterone levels injected with a big ego shot. Men among men are a different animal, they test waters continuously to see who is bigger, better, faster, richer, more clever, and in the end, they find that the race was with themselves, so they become friends. With women they change like chameleons, even the fine examples have this soft spot for a female, even if she was out to get his neck, he would deliver it on a silver plate and after He’s history, wonders what went wrong? Please note the men have a naturally strong feature build, yet if you had a special X-Ray machine to check them out, you would find small boys hiding underneath that masculine body. They love and care, protect and share, hunt and dump, just like females, they also cry. My favorite watching areas for men are hotel lobbies, coffee shops and malls, business areas where they are all important, and for that extra special feature presentation check them out at night spots.

Earth: When you take a walk in a park or by the sea or even in a metropolitan area, look at your surroundings, study them, watch how they function together in perfect harmony, any imperfections to the general system are weeded out, its amazing. The different shades of green amaze me, the different aromas that descend from flowers and trees, woods and jungles, farms and spas, seas and rivers, waterfalls and volcanoes, natural springs and swimming pools. The sounds that things make when you step on them, the crackles, the pops, the twists, the very actions and disformations they adjust to. The sights of stars at night, and sunshine rays on rainbows, the full moon above and its reflections on an empty desert strip with the ocean in the horizon. Going under water is a whole new world, each movement precisely triggered by some great force from above, each fish has a parent, each shell fish has a destiny, each whale will travel thousands of miles to mate, each dolphin jumps out of the water in splendid grace. Sharks know they rule and have the powers to prove it, shrimps are someone’s food like many other sea life form, to know what Im talking about take a swim one day and look below you, what a sight.

Sounds: The music over the centuries that man has made is simply a wonder in itself, nothing can demonstrate mankind’s genius like music, think about it, out of nothing, you get these rhythms you dance to or memorize the lyrics to complete the joy. Like circles in the sand going round and round, magnificent artist keep grabbing us by the ear, each person develops tastes to other peoples making and suddenly he is a fan forever. The sound of all the different creatures, the sounds we make when uncomfortable, when in pain, when in distress, the baby cries, the animals purrs and growls, the rains drops on your head, the sound of your hungry stomach, the sound of my computer keyboard, the sound a car makes, the heartbeats, the sound of music.

Smells: Your nose has great capabilities in identifying and familiarizing itself with all the different smells around us. Smell this; A new french perfume on your skin, the smell of garbage at a dumpster, the smell of a baby, the smell of a man, the scent of a woman, a teenagers socks after a day out at school and the mall, the smell of freshly cleaned clothes soaked in comfort, the aroma of hot bread out of an oven, the smell of a new car, the smell of burning rubber, the smell of an airport, the stink of a skunk, the smell of autumn, what about the food you eat, the pizza, the lasagna, the rice, the stinky sushi that you still adore, the indian cuisine, the spanish, the Thai, the French, its all good, now I’m hungry, damn it!

Feel: What does it feel like when you get hurt, no one actually touched you? but you felt it, now what does it feel like to touch a kiwi, a watermelon, a cat, a dog, a couch? Every thing has a certain feel to it, what about the feel of your daughters hair, your hair, your skin, her skin, his skin, his beard, her back, what does your bed feel like? how do you like the feeling you get when you touch a flower? how bad does it hurt when a thorn makes you bleed? how does your palm feel? what about the other side? are they the same? how does baby oil on your skin make you feel after a hot shower? what good does a massage do you? how does her body feel next to yours? how does it feel closer? what does a punch in the eye feel like? is it the same feeling you get when you touch a slimy snail and a soft cuddly teddy bear? what about diamonds, rubber, the mouse you use daily, the carpet or marble under you, does it feel the same barefoot, how does walking on the sand make you feel, is it the same as walking on ice? feelings.

All you have to do, is to take it in slow, its so much fun when you understand where to get a proper Fun & Interesting education.

She threw her self into his arms in a candle lit ambience, the music was far but disturbed the silence. He caressed her body and examined her beauty at close breathes, he took a deeper breath of her aromatic scents that filled the room. She gave in and melted like chocolate in his warmth, he quickly licked each drop of her before she fell to the ground below, for they were now floating on cloud number nine.

The danced to their own music, they mixed it all, tango,salsa, belly dancing, ballroom & ended it with their favorite slow body to body moves. He looked away and then straight into her lustful playful eyes in the deep of the night, she held him closer and held on to his broad built, she loved the man in him, he loved it all.

Close encounters, pulls and grabs, breathing down her neck nibbling away on her cheeks, he couldn’t stop himself, she lit his fire. She falls only to find herself in his arms again, his tender loving arms held her softly and assured her of more to come, her heat was spreading all over his body, she pulled him closer and did things to his lower lip only a hungry child would do to a watermelon, they breathed each others breath, they loved the disbelief of the moment.

The night time is the right time, her glow in the dark was inviting, his shadows were seductive. They shadow danced before touching, a touch here, a whisper here, a little nothing there, a flirt in disguise, its all good they think, they blink and realise its now or never, since never will take longer than the now, its gotta be now, he makes his move, its all or nothing he thinks, she is too delicious to pass, he goes for her luscious juicy lips and explores her taste with total pleasure.

In a hidden corner, little fish swim in the dark, watching and witnessing a lustful engagement of the third degree, one fish looks over to his girlfriend and winks “ any ideas on your mind baby?” they swim to the far side of the fish tank and make out till the break of dawn. And in the other corner we find her laying back on a couch in an awkward position, who cares they both think, he comes on top of her, caring not to hurt her, and explores her some more, he loves what he feels and sees, he goes for the neck in total thirst, more bites and nibbles, she is wonderful tonight he thinks.

As the moments move faster than they could imagine, she moves up and looks at him kisses him some more, as if telling him its time to go, he abides but with little resistance, wishing they could pause time, he has plans, and she stole them from his mind.

She moves away waiting for him to grab her again, he reads her mind, and away they go, their tongues get caught up in the action, their hands only the fish knew what they touched and caressed, he turns her around and grabs her from the waist, with his hands slightly higher up, he inhales the smell of her hair, he closes his eyes, he wants it all, he needs her tonight, he kisses her slightly behind her ears, and down her neck, he mixes his kisses with wet ones down her spine, she melts and moves away,” I have to go” she says softly.

They both walk lazily towards the door, both not wanting this to end, they needed to see what’s next, they love reading all the book and talking about it once done, and then go over it one more time, and then some more. They want to know what the pages of the future hold for them, they want more. They leave.

In the car, silence fills the air, the sound of the roaring engine, some music, no one talks, they just imagine the end of that start, one person is imagining what a night, the other is asking what just happened? one is wondering why did it end, the other thinks out loud “ I’m going to miss you” she looks at him in a mysterious way and smiles.

When they wake up in the morning, they both expect a message, but nothing there, they go back to their lives, each one waiting for the other to make a move, any move, both have busy lives, both know they like each other, could they be asking themselves questions? Should I continue this crazy encounter? What is it? How will it affect my life? Why can’t I just have her? Will he be like this 6 months from now?

Why can’t they just do what they feel and get it over with, what’s the worst that can happen, both have had previous lessons and must have fell and stood up again, what could possibly go wrong here? lol, they think.

She disappears into the night like some Marvel comic super hero, he knows what to do, and drives into the night, music full blast, speed, night lights, people of the night surround him, he sinks into his usual surroundings and calls it a night. Good night everybody, and a special goodnight to you mysterious woman of the night, it would be great to see your pretty face again, I missed a spot and need to cover it in our next encounter he thinks!

He: HI honey how was your day?

She: Well it was OK I can say, not too great though.

He: Why baby, you just got promoted last week to regional manager, and the challenges were more, you love that don’t you?

She: its not that, its…

He: Yes?

She: Its about me and you, I think we should schedule a nice long talk soon.

He: Now. What is on your mind honey? please let me know, I know I have been traveling too much lately, but I do miss you, you know that.

She: Yes…but..

He: Talk baby, what’s bothering you, I insist to know it all, just let it out.

She: Are you sure you want to know everything? I mean all the issues and things, now? today?

He: OK this sounds serious, please stop it and tell me.

She: Only if you insist, and will try to understand my point.

He: Sure.

She: There’s another man in my life, actually many more men in my life. I tried to find what I was looking for, and now there is someone who wants me for who I am, wants to be with me forever, sorry, but I share feelings for him, and I want a divorce as soon as possible. Do not worry about our three children, we are both grown ups, and we can handle it. Please understand where I’m coming from.

He: Silence.

She: Please don’t do that, talk to me, you always stay quite when I say something, always have neglected my thoughts and feelings, you always do this,I hate it, over the last 5 years you have been only nice to me, never for me, never close to me, all gone with the wind.

He: More silence, slight redness to the face. Temperature & pressure rising. Steam off.

She: Come on! say something! I need to know anything, talk to me.

He: And…what else?

She: What do you mean what else? much more… If you insist since its our last confrontation… All my travels were with boyfriends, I told the world I was divorced, I respected who you were and they never knew you..

He: Haahaaahahaaaaaaaaaa thank you!

She: There goes that sarcastic tone of yours again! And most of the times we never slept together I was afraid you might catch something, as I had many mild infections, but that’s too much details for you, sorry.

He: Thank you again, I am astonished at your classy manners and well being, your bringing up was of the finest high class standards we all dream of having, continue darling, please continue… I am intrigued..

She: Sarcasm will get you no where! And don’t you dare talk about my family! you know who they are and what they can do to you, unlike people I know..

He: Well honey, I have something to tell you too.

She: What now? you wanna divorce me? I asked for it anyway, what you are shocked at he news? what? what?

He: I have a wife and a kid, I do not have any girlfriends, I do not sleep with you because you don’t want me to, thats all no diseases, I respect your family, but disagree with their product that’s all, I never stopped loving you, I gave you my full respect and believed in you, I tried many times to warn you of your friends and lifestyle, I made myself so I know the pitfalls of this life we live, I never inherited anything, I worked hard to make us happy, now its someone else’s fate to be happy with me. In my attempt to watch over you for safety reasons, I stumbled upon your escapades and was devastated years ago, if you remember I took a long 30 day vacation to our Island beach house, but that was ages ago, I have been asked to get rid of you, but I couldn’t, you were the world to me, I trusted you unconditionally, now I can’t, sorry, but I have learnt that we need to move on, you chose to move on today, I have moved on 3 years ago darling.

She: On her knees fainting, disillusioned, confused, petrified, stabbed in the heart.

He: I have all arrangements in place for you and my children, my lawyers have taken all actions, you took so long to come out of your closet. Oh! and my wife says I need to stand by your side till you get better, I think you know her, your best friend Sheila, the one that always warned you about what you were doing, but you told her to get a life…she took your advice.

They say the truth is best unsaid…is it?

What if you were passing an old lady crossing the street you actually never stopped to let her pass, what kind of impression would you leave on the poor old ladies soul? now imagine you did stop.

• What if when your child is talking to you you are thinking about your busy schedule and other life matters, is that what really matters when these moments will be lost forever, now imagine you did give them your full attention, the kind of attention you give your lousy boss or president.
• What if you bump into an old friend and you only comment on how awful they look after all these years, did you think you left a positive impact only because they were nice and laughed at your comment, what if you complimented the nicer things in them or the special occasion of meeting after all these years?
• What if someone was crying their heart out to you and you slightly showed no interest, instead of giving them the support they once gave you?you must be special for them to come to you, think about that.
• What if you slowed down a bit and looked at the beauty that surrounds you, what if you actually took a nice long breather and inhaled those roses, tried to figure out the kind of coffee you sip, thanked the waiter by his name, and when you return remember his name and compliment them, sometimes its all they need to get through the week.
• What if someone passed you suddenly in their car and you gave them a finger or two, how would that make the matter better? now imagine you smiled, then I can imagine you a happy person who caught two birds with one stone, you made him confused, and you were still in a happy mood.
• What if your parents were all rough and tough on you when you were a child, what if they never learned how to raise a child and you hate them for it till this day, did you forget the mere fact that what goes around comes around, and you soon will be a mother, and I guess you will just smile when you are treated bad. Forgiving people is the way to live, you can never know if you have a second chance when you come to your senses.
• What if a young junior at work comes to you for help and you shoo him off complaining about your priorities, how long do you think it will be when he will never come to you for help when in need? Helping people when you are up will really help you on your slips down one day.
• What if on a plane you see a couple sitting in front of you with three children and one of them will not stop crying, you know that annoying cry, not the continuous one, and you get up and tel them to sush the baby its a 6 hour flight to London, how do you think they will feel towards you? now imagine you considered its only 6 hours from your life, you can manage with an ipod, an ear plug, a mental block and leave them alone with their crying baby.
• What if your maid made a mistake and broke a plate and you verbally abused her, deducted the plate cost from her low salary and sent her to her room, how would she feel towards you? now imagine what a nice talk about the issue would be like in her mind, just because you pay her salary doesn’t mean you can treat her bad and think the universe will not pay you back sooner or later.
• What is you take peoples feelings lightly and hurt them, instead of be yourself and either make it happen or move on? Now imagine your heart being broken by a serial dating machine in the name of love.
• What if all the people you meet today and tomorrow feel better because of your wonderful cheerful smiles you send their way, how would they feel when you either look away when you have eye contact, or totally ignore them, or even give them that old western cowboy “ Whatcyou lookin at stranger?” smile.
• What if the what ifs are answered and not put on hold, they only add up, take action and look your what ifs in the face and ace the test of time, everytime, for a better time

Go ahead and take that leap into the 1000 ft. drop and make a splash! Stop following and follow your heart, follow those childish boyish acts of innocence, jump! Its funny what funny can do to you, smile! do you hear that beat in your head that makes you wanna dance, dance!

Nothing beats like your heart beats jumping in joy and happiness, cherish every beat if you can, if not catch the rhythm and record it for those down days, but do stay tuned. Hard becomes the new easy when you smile back in the face of uncertainty, for only you know its time for change, change is good, change is critical to move out into another box, paint your box with lots of sunshine, rainbows and smily faces.

Each corner we take, each bend in the road leads somewhere, each bump, hick-up is nothing but a temporary glitch, find the new update and restart now, not later. Some habits are hard to break, admitting you have a bad one is half the solution. Respect yourself in order for people to respect you back, go ahead and hug yourself and say I love me( say it!).

Gifts and surprises are not seeked for their monetary values as you know, cherish your gifts, for you have many.Most of our gifts we know, but take for granted, some we don’t even know until they are gone, make good use of your gifts.Find inner peace first, then seek world peace, relax, take it one step at a time.

People you meet daily are precious gems awaiting your arrival, each one comes with its own hidden secrets and magic, each one has in them energy and wisdom for you to gain, embrace knowledge through people. Respect individuals for their true person, not their title or what they do in life for a living, be equal and see the beauty. Listen twice as much as you talk, the evidence we have is two ears and one mouth, that seems to sound right.

Opposites attract, watch out for what you attract, the attraction factor multiplies when you are attracted to your weaknesses, seek what you really want, and you shall be rewarded. Stay free spirited, look everywhere, keep your options open, and open your arms as wide as you can when you find your happiness. Give everyone a chance or two, in turn they might do the same, if not you know that you tried your luck, for the harder you work, the luckier you get.

If you see someone you like, imagine your life video playing with them in the scene, how do you feel, do you get goose bumps, or the measles? If you find that you need them to join a part of your journey, or all the way to the end, then what are you waiting for? Kiss them without them expecting it, hug them, touch them, send your signals and await the reply. Watch them eat their meal and enjoy the sight, look for signs of cuteness and simplicity, what do you think?

Small talk is big talk where I come from, sometimes the messages inside small talk are more important than heavily revised How to guides, small talk your way into their way. Look them in the eyes, look away and wonder what it would be like when you can catch their breath. I could imagine me and you, you and me, together, having fun, discovering each other from another angle, playing to each others tunes, romancing the moments. Turn up the volume, hone in to their frequency and listen in, do you like what you hear, go for it.

Run fast or slow, but do run, run in any way or form you prefer, feel the wind in your hair, feel your heart beats adapting to your wild spirit, your spirit needs training every once in a while, run free, follow through and see what happens, but don’t stay motionless.

Why do I feel I want to dance with you? why do I feel I will? why do I want to take you away for a while? Why not? our moves remind me of chess, someone will eventually win, be it mastery or the other someone gets fed up and calls it quits and gives in, I love your moves. I know what will happen, my little genie friend told me, he says me and you will move it up a notch, and we do like each other, we weigh options wisely and sometimes haphazardly, but we do calculate outcomes. I always hated math! you do the math.

Please excuse me for changing the subject, it was my free soul running wild on me again

The soul is born old but grows young. That is the comedy of life. And the body is born young and grows old. That is life’s tragedy.

In a world of change and fast pace we tend to get carried away with it waves and oceans on a daily basis, before long you look back to check how far away you sailed, only to find you are in uncharted waters.As we humans tend to be the best habitants of this earth of ours, and also have the ability to change like chameleons to match our surroundings, we can manage. if you slow down a bit and look around you and above you and under you, you can see what you missed on your fast pace run to nowhere.

We have this tendency to be harsh on our self, we behave in a socially acceptable manner which is not exactly what we want, except for the fantastic few. This group of people have learnt at an early age to make tough decisions, to take risks, to handle their choices with utter bravery. If I was to categorize myself I would pretty much say I belong to the wanderer risk taker, accept no bull person.

But I, like many others, have many defaults and mistakes, I have also taken forever to reach such relief and total control of what I want in my life. You too have this embedded in you somewhere depending on your upbringing and reading and teachings, you just have to dig for it and make it surface.This is not a joking matter, it is dead serious. Everyday you hear gossip and talk about so & so, everyday you pretend that you do not like gossip but lend an ear, and ask some questions.

What you are doing when you listen to gossip is basically check how better you are than the hero of this gossip session, she is the benchmark that you want to run away from. When you accept to be treated badly, you chose, when you are betrayed and stayed for the ride, you chose. When your gut feeling tells you something, and you refuse to listen to that FM station, you shut it off, and you are held accountable.

From my humble and small experience I can say that people fall into two categories, those who accept and live along, and those who refuse and live happy. People come in all flavors, different colors and looks, many scales of beauty, and in all sizes and two sexes. We cannot continue to say females are weaker, or men are aggressive apes, things have changed.

Here you have miss sunshine with Mr. Ego male, she knows he has his defaults that will end their relationship someday, but she accepts because he is the talk of the town. On the other corner you have Mr. perfect man with his drop dead gorgeous wife that only loves him for his bling and prestige, he to knows the end is close, but drags on his bitter winter days, all year long.

Both examples are real, they come in many mixes and combinations, in all civilizations and nations across the globe. I used to accept my relationships with all the hassles and baggage, emotional and garbage, and say it is my destiny. Then one day I woke up and said what does the other side look like like? Nothing was the same from that moment on. I tend to have this message hovering over my head that reads” My gain, your loss” You see I have control over my life now, not you anymore, you dragged me down, now I have to move on.

I make mistakes as I type, so imagine my life. I accept my rough mistakes and bury them with the daily dust we go through, with its good and bad moments. Over my two relationships( marriages) on a span of 15 years I can say this” you owe it to yourself to find tranquility, even if it means getting rid of your partners” tough talk, I know, but I did it. Many can argue with me, you were dumped, or I dumped the partner, I can assure you that I had a massive hand in it for it to happen. And after that my life was like a yo-yo, we all love yo-yo’s you know then you get sick and slow down, but you are always happy.

When a girl or woman says get lost, I obey. You say in a cute way, what about love? I say love comes and goes, the good one comes when its least expected, who told you that the one you are in love with is the best thing for you?forever?and ever? check it out every once and a while for comfort and to make sure it is. So what do you do when a boy says its over, I don’t find myself in you? you accept and move on, no questions asked, like an original guarantee. You can call me heartless, I can defend my case till the last drop that I am full of heart and live in heart land. The only problem I face with the subject is how it is taken lightly and wrongly, and eventually given a bad rap.

To be happy you need to stay happy, day in, day out, for in the end its the totals that count. For instance if you have 360 days in the year and you are happy for 30 days in the year, sorry dear lovebird, you ain’t got a clue about happiness. Its when you can remember more laughs than fights, more excitement than fear, more joy than frowns, more hugs than slaps, that’s when you can say you are a happy go lucky individual.

Nothing deserves you more than you, so when you say good bye my love, I say hello stranger. No one should have control over your visions, dreams, happiness but you. You are the most special person in the world to you, if the other partner cannot see that, move on. When you combine two peoples lives you should have a stronger, more lovable, more powerful person made, not a stronger one and weaker lost other! I hate the people that suck the living daylight out of beautiful young souls and throw them bones to the dogs, then come back complaining that they are not up-to their standards.

Next time you call someone and say its over, you better mean it, it is not a joke, or game you can play. Letting go of a loved one is almost impossible, but please remember an important fact regarding this issue; Is she the one? is he the last lover? why did this happen? should I fix it or bust it? Should I pump more life into it? or let it dry & die? Is it worth my most valuable assets, my heart & life? or is it a liability that only seems to grow?

In the end its your call. Love is wonderful, love is magic in the making, love is the most talked and seeked feeling on earth, love can move mountains and create fresh water springs in our imagination that quench our love thirst, love makes the world go round, love ensures us of a better tomorrow, love mends and heals, love brings sweet tears to ones eyes, loves brings you to your knees willingly and happily, loves makes you smile unconditionally when you walk alone in your mind at night, love is the air we breath, without it I can imagine all of Solomon’s mines worthless, for who shall I give it to when I find it?

Just before I sign out, don’t forget to check your happy levels, and trust me on this one, you are the most precious person that ever lived, that needs to be loved unconditionally, and with no strings attached, and you can be very greedy, yes you can, you can have it all, leave nothing for the others, its all yours for the taking.

One condition though! if no one wants to be with you for whatever reason, do what I do, look the other way and move on. Its all good

Relationships are like glass. Sometimes it’s better to leave them broken than try to hurt yourself putting it back together.
