yesterday.

Two hours and twenty minutes ago, I felt that kind of jealousy that can break anything that a woman has. It is really hard to compete with yourself. You wanted to be happy, in love, but when you feel that kind of emotion, all you could really feel is your insecurities, your weaknesses, your lost desires, your broken dreams and shallow thoughts. Somehow, I tried answering his question but if I could, I do not know if he would understand.

I have lost a part of my life wondering about the future that does not really matter for now. I have lost a lifetime thinking of doing something rather than doing it.

I have lost a lot of tears and smiles but because of a kiss, a hug, all of that was erased, I do not feel that i have lost a part of my life, a lifetime, tears and smiles. He made me realize how important it is to, sometimes, just go with the flow.

Excerpt from the address given by Nelson Mandela in a rally in Soweto, South Africa on February 13, 1990

Our primary task remains to unite our people across the length and breadth of our country. Our democratic organizations must be consolidated in all sectors. Democratic political practice and accountable leadership must be strengthened on all fronts. Our struggle against apartheid, though seemingly uncertain, must be intensified on all fronts. Let each one of you and all our people give the enemies peace and liberty no space to take us back to the dark hell of apartheid. It is only disciplined mass action that assures us of the victory we seek.

no more lonely days...

I made it so unfair for myself. I was just walking in circles.
I never made it to where i'm going.
But things have changed.
Time goes and so I realized I should be moving forward to somewhere
better and beautiful.

I don't have any plans of staying in hell for a long time.

I deserve some soft clouds of heaven.

I did make it on my past heartaches so why not this one?

haha.. I can do it...

Here, There And Everywhere

To lead a better life I need my home to be here...
Here, making each day of the year
Changing my life with the wave of her hand
Nobody can deny that there's something there

There, running my hands through her hair
Both of us thinking how good it can be
Someone is speking but she doesn't know he's there

I want her everywhere and if she's beside me I know I need never care
But to love her is to need her everywhere
Knowing that love is to share

Each one believing that love never dies
Watching her eyes and hoping
I'm always there

I want her everywhere and if she's beside me I know I need never care
But to love her is to need her everywhere
Knowing that love is to share
Each one believing that love never dies
Watching her eyes and hoping
I'm always there

To be there and everywhere
Here, there and everywhere

THE PERSON NEXT TO YOU

Look around you. WHO IS THE PERSON sitting next to you?
The PERSON next to you is the greatest miracle and the greatest mystery
you will ever meet at this moment,
A testament of the Word made flesh
of God's continuing Advent into the world, into our midst.

The PERSON next to you
is a unique universe of experience, seething with necessity and possibility
dread and desire, smiles and frowns
laughter and tears, fears and hopes
all struggling to find experience.

The PERSON next to you is surging to
BECOME something, in particular, to arrive at some destination,
to have a story, and a song,
to be known and to know...

The PERSON next to you--IS MYSTERY
And the WORD MADE FLESH IS MYSTERY.
And the word made Flesh
and dwelt among us.
