Early Morning Epiphany

I'm up on 2/3 hours of sleep this morning and when I say MORNING i mean the sun just found it's place in the sky, birds are chirping, it is BRIGHT as a moth- lol...clearly mornings aren't always my best times. Some mornings = amazing. This morning however, I'm moody and isolated soo it's not living up to it's potential as a great morning lol. This morning is one of those where all that bright, sunshining goodness is making me want to knock that chirping, happy bird out of its tree with a rock lol.

Even with it being a lack-lustre morning, I just had this epiphany of sorts. I admitted that I like to run away from my problems*
See the star/symbol thingy after the word problems? Yes? Good. That means I'm going to clarify so don't be so quick to judge, speed racer - let me explain.

Ok, first thing - I like change, more than that, I need change at times. Just so I can prove to myself that yeah, change is inevitable BUT it won't scare me when it's important life altering things that are happening.
Second, if I'm not ready to deal with something, I need to distance myself from it until I can clearly think about whatever it is. If I don't take that break, the frustration at the situation over-takes my rationalizing power and that's just never good.

**OK so back to the epiphany. I was talking..no I was conversing online with a friend and jokingly said I was going to run from my probs...the issue in that was that joking or not, I wanted to run.
Perhaps I am just not ready to deal with reality...perhaps I am but am too comfortable to move.
Perhaps I've overused the word 'perhaps'. Who knows?

Well I'll tell you what I do know (a lot)... only God can judge me...so if I choose to run away from my problems for this moment or a few moments, days, weeks, months...lol The point is, if I choose to run, I choose to run. He'll eventually get me back on track, right? After all, Jesus is my homeboy and homies don't let other homies run forever lol.

Yeah, it's still really early for me...let's make that the explanation for this "post" :)

Anger

It's like a force of nature...takes over and that's it.
I'm so angry right now and the trigger was something so stupid. I'm angry that I reacted so quickly and that a few words could make me feel so obsolete. It might be more hurt than anger...yet it's the anger that's consuming me.

ANGER...it's funny how my mom's name starts with those first 3 letters lol. I'm implying nothing, just stating the obvious about the letter placement :)

That was a fake text smiley face. Yes, fake because I'm so angry right now I'm not really feeling smiley. I only added it so that if by chance my mother comes across this rambling, I can get myself out of trouble and say 'see, the smiley face means it's a joke' and hope for the best lol.

Ok, I'm done...for now.

p.s. I'm back in the blogosphere..whatever. I'm back, I'm not back...world still turns lol.

All is Fair in Love and War

Well, that's how the saying goes...but what does it MEAN??
Does it mean that whatever is done to maintain love, find love etc is fair ?
Does it mean love really is a battlefield and you have to fight for it?
Does it mean that you can fight over it at all?
Really...what the hell does it mean?
In my mind, this means do what you gotta do if you want that love. Nobody can tell me that's not the meaning because really...no one knows for sure.

Why is this relevant?
The past 7 days of my life could be defined by those 7 words.

I don't like confrontation - I will do anything to get out of it unless it's absolutely necessary that it be done. Granted, the past few days have been filled with them, but normally it's not my thing.
Compassion is my one true weakness. Being compassionate is both a blessing and a curse for me, my heart breaks at others' misfortunes and I can't change that.
Stranger, friend or foe, I cannot stand to know/see/hear about/think about someone else being unhappy or hurt. I feel that my purpose in this world, above all else is to make sure that people are happy in life. I know, big task for a small person but that's how it is in my mind. In reality it probably is not meant to be that way, and the amount that I can help others is probably enough on my part - but that's not good enough.

Should I want to change that? How can I fight for love when I know someone else is going to end up hurt, losing love?

Yet how can I not fight for something I want when I know it should be mine?
I hate the way things have gone these past days -- that's serious because I rarely hate anything.

After all of this, I'm still left wondering, what does this saying mean for my life ?

2010

I'M BACK! I mean it this time, for real.

I've abandoned this blog more than once over the years but something keeps bringing me back to it. I'll take that as a sign from the heavens that I am meant to write. I love writing so even if it's not a 'sign', it's all good.

Why do I think this blog is meant to be? Well that's a fantastic question...I believe that because I have an opinion about anything and everything, anyone and everyone.
There are those who claim everyone is entitled to their own opinions. I'm one of them and I'm not going to lie, in my mind, I analyze everything and judge everyone (in my own right, lol).
Don't get me wrong, I don't do it to be mean or to insult, I judge out of curiousity - it's my way of entertaining myself in a world of daily routines.

I think that if I can amuse myself , I can amuse others too...yes, I'm that GOOD ..atleast that's what i'm told LOL -- okay relax, it's not one of those blogs ;) Enjoy!

ps. If i should abandon this blog again, it's for good reason...2 years til 2012, I gotta make preparations and be ready too...life's not all fun and games, you know? :D

How...

Writing is my niche...my way to get through different things whether they're good or bad...regardless of an audience, writing just helps soothe me. That's who I am.
Music is good too and some people can relate to what writing can mean for some, with the way a song can make them forget everything and just feel at ease in a moment.

Granted, it seems like my mind has been stuck lately...in a place that I still cannot understand to this day, writing will hopefully be the process that gets me through it.

That's what's on my mind today...not getting past things because I think i've done that...what I need to do is let it go instead of holding on to the past.

Sounds easy if I'm willing to let go right? But ask yourself this question...if the past makes us who we are today, can we really forget things in the past that have brought us to this moment in life - without altering the good person we've come to be?

Happiness.....what?


Aristotle once said that "happiness belongs to the self-sufficient."
Take it how you want to but for me that means that only you can make yourself happy. Don't get me wrong, there may be people in your life that bring joy each and everyday you're with them BUT if you weren't making the choice to appreciate them and what they mean to you, you would not recognize the happiness they bring to your life.

With that said, I decided that I would try to start being more appreciative of little things....

I found this picture on google images, and can't help thinking although it's sweet, those puppies are probably thinking 'Oh HELL no!'

Today

Ever had one of those mornings where you think that getting out of bed could very well be the end of the world as you know it? This morning was like that. I had a very, very restless night and it seemed like every hour on the hour I was up, looking at the time. I set my alarm for 10am thinking that would give me more than enough time for my class at 12:40pm. BUT guess what happened? No, guess again. Nooooooooo lol, let me tell you. I heard the alarm and thought I could get an extra half hour....BUT being the sleep-deprived genius I am, I slept through the snooze alarms...not just alarm but alarmS - there were maybe 3 of them. I ended up getting out of bed when I looked at the clock and saw it was 12:20. One word and one word alone was in my head then and it was a bad one lol.
I got to class late and saw the Prof. was talking about something on the overhead...I don't like to be rude and interrupt so I thought I'd wait a few mins til she changed slides.
See, I had to wait the extra mins anyway so I thought hmmm let me go get a coffee.
As I turned to go downstairs to the cafe, I slipped and nearly tripped myself to death down those damn stairs. I always knew one day the stairs and I would fight but really..why did it have to be today? LOL...
Finally made it to class and it was good, learned some new things....all the while the only thing on my mind was revenge against the stairs....and I knew exactly what I had to do...after class was over I took the elevator and threw the stairs a gruesome look on the way.
Yes, that was how today started...now it's 8pm and I'm tired as hell..and it shows, my sarcasm is practically non-existent sooo to save you reading boring non-sensical words, I'll say adieu. (That's goodbye Mary Poppins style, homies!) :)
