Embrace the Moment

If Love were HomeLess...

2011-08-22T21:01:00.000-07:00

If Love were homeless,

I would roam less.

No longer approaching her open handed, I could breathe a little more freely, feeling a lot less needy.

See me and Love have always been on opposite ends of the spectrum.

When she had the answers, I would be searching for them.

While she lay calm, I found myself becoming a nomad of mayhem.

I traveled light, slept lighter.

If Love were homeless,
Maybe she would care less.
Of these fools’ games she plays
Or these foul things she says
She would have a deeper appreciation for those who don’t have her
And others would no longer be her source of laughter.

If Love were homeless,

She would understand there is more to life than just 'The Moment'.

She would listen to more to what I do,

Rather than what I didn't say

She would keep promises and confess to her lies

She would stay around long enough to dry my eyes

If Love were homeless...

She would give a fuck.

It's time for Love to grow up.

Love behind the Wall..

2011-02-28T21:24:00.000-08:00

Floatin in a dream world
Love is here
Drifting into reality
Pain is near…
So I clear,
My throat
Never to rest to heavily on hope
Rope…ing my thoughts
And gearing my mind
To find
Courage.
Ill need it.
Strength.
I hope you have it.
Grab it,
The sledge hammer
And go ham against the wall surrounding my heart, Attack
it like rats to cheese
make haste in this rat race
pace yourself at a top speed of forever:mph
devour the bullshit that flies from the blade against the concrete
seek.
No shelter, no don’t hide
this is what u signed up for, so tell me what you feel in side
and ill do the same.
Show me your mind

And ill do the same

Share whispers from your soul

And ill share with you those from mine.

Keep hammering away, never to slow

Ill let you see my vulnerability

If you promise not to go

And if time proves you shall not stammer

Ill reach down and grasp my own hammer..

My swing is heavy, and yours relentless
Together we can bring down my wall

Behind it love can be witnessed.

Defining Success

2011-02-20T13:59:00.000-08:00

Success is in the mind of the beholder. It is as simple or complex what anyone wants it to be for themselves. Though I would like to place some boundaries of what I believe all ideologies of success must stay within. I strongly believe that in order to define success for yourself, you must be able to first define yourself. By having an understanding of who you are as an individual will allow you to embrace what it is you truly desire and what in life will bring you happiness. Which brings me to my next parameter; all ideas of success must lead to an overall happiness, self-gratitude, and a strong sense of satisfaction. Of course these feelings will not be by your side 24/7 all day every day, but this must be the overwhelming and consistent feelings of someone who has reached their idea of success.

As for myself, I define success as equaling significance. I desire to positively affect others’ lives, along with financially living a comfortable life, living life to what I deem it’s fullest, and doing right by my family and my faith.

How do you define success?

The Rape Over

2011-02-12T11:56:00.000-08:00

What happens to many following
undergrad.

Man is nothing but a walking conundrum. Think about it; generally men want a good girl with a history of innocents, yet while having a naughty side somehow filled with overwhelming experience. And women please don’t even start thinking you’re much different! You all want a guy that’ll treat you good and do right by you, yet yall stay hovering around the doodes who have that dangerous edge.. smh. I digress.

The 21^st century job market aka The Rape Over, follows the same trends apparently. Corporate America likes em young, innovative, and energetic. Yet after their whispers of seduction luring you under the corporate sheets, they pause. A look of dissatisfaction across their face. “You don’t have enough experience.”

Its not quantum physics, its simple math. Experience = Job, yet only a Job = experience. Its what some may consider a rotating algorithm. It’s a game just to get into the game, a marathon just to get to the race, a process that truly boils down to who you know and who is willing to take a chance on you. Where are the rewards of education, extra-curriculars, and internships? Is all that effort and time chalked up toe equal no experience?

I surely do not have any of the answers, yet I will allow you to ponder these questions as I have done. I do believe there are loop holes to this rotating algorithm when adding Networking as a key variable. Entry level Corporate America is based on few factors: mainly being trust and performance. Chances are they are unaware of the truth extent of your performance capabilities, so leaning on trust is a must. Network, build that trust, and lie rewardingly under the sheets of corporate America.

Why'd you say it..

2011-01-26T23:39:00.000-08:00

Why couldn’t she just love me or leave me
But she wanted to eat her cake too, and
Proceeded to be
Nothing but a hindrance to me
And my life
And I struggle
To understand how you could ever tell me “I love you”..

The Hard Part...

2011-01-24T12:22:00.000-08:00

What hurts most
Is that it hurts the most
No Champaign bottles
No special toast
Cant find a shooting star to place my hopes
The dance floor has cleared
And only you and I are left standing here
We knew each other so well as the record spun
Intertwining the night towards endless fun
Endless has ended
With nothing else begin’in
But the shock, from the stop
Of the music playin
Its sayin
Only what needs to be said:
Hearts in it, but where’s are head?
Love hasn’t left, but is the passion dead?
But the final literature has yet to have been read
The journey of a love story
That it is, so lets not worry
Surely,
We can flip the page and write a new chapter.
Later to look back with light hearted laughter.

The Possibility of Impossible

2011-01-23T12:34:00.000-08:00

Nothing is impossible. Does anyone else see that this is a oxymoron within itself? If nothing is impossible then is equal to say that, Everything is possible. Correct? Good, agreed. So if everything is possible, in all fairness doesn’t that mean it is POSSIBLE for an impossibility to exist? It Must be! Because EVERYTHING is possible so how can you possibly exclude the possibility of impossible!

Top 5 Reasons for BreakUps

2010-12-01T23:14:00.000-08:00

Here are the five most common factors that I have found that seem to lie at the root of most arguments, disagreements and divorces:

1. A lack of commitment on the part of one or both people in the relationship. In other words there is only partial or a half commitment to the relationship. It's when the partners say something like, "I'll go half way and you half way," and as soon as one party decides to go less than 50 percent a split usually opens up in the relationship, which usually grows wider over time.

2. Trying to change the other person is another common reason for relationships breaking up. When you try to change another person or expect the other person to change it is simply another form of rejection. It's another way of one partner saying to the other, "You're not good enough for me." Whenever you try to change another person you are implying that he or she is not good enough for you and you trigger a feelings of anger and resentment in that person.

3. Another common reason for the break-up of relationships is jealousy. Jealousy is always experienced in the mind and heart of the person feeling the emotion. It is an emotion that rises from a feeling of low self-esteem and feelings of personal inferiority. The person who feels jealous in a relationship feels that no one could ever love him or her for being the kind of person that he or she is.

4. Self-Pity or feeling sorry for something that your partner has either done or not done to or for you is a often found as a reason for relationships breaking-up. Often people will experience self-pity because their partner will be so busy or happy with his or her own work or career that the person experiencing the self-pity feels left out.

5. Negative expectations are a common cause for relationships breaking up. This is when you expect your partner to do something to disappoint you. In life our expectations either positive or negative tend to be fulfilled. The most important words you can ever say to your partner or spouse are "I love you" and "I believe in you."

10 Tips on How to Lie :\

2010-11-17T16:07:00.000-08:00

1) A lie is a lie is a lie... You lie to 1 person, you must carry that lie to any and all people connected to that individual.

2) You dont need a poker face to be successful. Try NOT being serious. Joking within your lying.

3) Remember your lies. WIthhold them and uphold them until the end of time.

4) Look into the person's eyes when you lie. This is key.

5) Offer alibis. Tell your closest friends what you are lying about so they can cover for you even if there is the slightest of chance they will be involved

6) Surround your lie with truths

7) Don't lie often so your word is more viable.

8) Develop a habit for taking the blame on minor things and don't fight/argue over minor stuff... In return, things you do create an issue over will be taken much more serious.

9) Don't shy away from the lying topic at hand. Make the other person change the topic. Showcase your comfort and security in talking about it.

10) DON'T lie to those who Know you Best !!!

A Night...

I don’t usually get nervous
And I know these butterflies could careless
But what if

What I’m attempting to say is
A night on the town, Can I show you
And take u
To a restaurant that u never been to
And prove to you
My worth is more than..
a match

While I light this candle
Let me handle
And maneuver
Every turn the night will take
I promise to make
Or mold
A night
Sure to unfold
As unforgettable.

Vote.

2010-11-02T12:22:00.000-07:00

Because not everyone was always allowed to do so.

Because your opinion Counts.

Because it is your Right.

Because it Matters.

Because you Can.

Fight For Freedom!

2010-10-26T00:52:00.000-07:00

Come One! Come All! Come line up to serve your nation and fight for freedom!

Honestly, I feel there are grounds in which one could sew for false advertisement. I am an individual that has great respect for the men and women who serve our country, lets let that be known. But seriously here, the idea of fighting for freedom? It just isnt feasible in any context of reality one may live in. In short: Freedom does not exist. As long as there are other human beings within your ecosystem freedom is just a word missed used more than the word love. Laws, hierarchies, and limitations exist throughout every single realm of the word. Even the simple judgment from another individual limits the idea of true freedom to someone else.

Freedom can only be sought in one realm. Dreams. But as our soldiers sign up, they're not fighting for dreams, there fighting for greed, for political strategy, for social justice, or for profit. The message needs to change. The American people need to stop being lied to. I believe we are undermined in our ability to understand the extremities of certain situations. Matter of fact, I believe it is the limited information that we are told that forces us to be more narrow minded and less understanding of why our brothers and sisters are sent off to fight in wars. I love my country, for wrong and for right. I just believe the government should put a little more faith into its people that it serves.

Art of Capital

2010-10-19T20:07:00.000-07:00

I think we can all be millionaires.

Seriously I dont think its all that hard. Its not luck, its not education level, it is not dependant solely or mainly upon networking or knowing the right people. The way I see it, its all dependent upon the amount of knowledge and wisdom you hold and matching that with that right amount of pure desire. You cant get hired to so a job unless you know how to do it.. right? Well seems the same philosophy stands for money. You can make and gain capital unless you know about it and how it works and how to work it. Learn this, comprehend it, and become knowledgeable and wise about it and the road to become a millionaire is all but mere waiting came from there.

Black Men Dating Outside Own Race..

On a subconscious level, some Black men date outside of their own race due to what they feel resides a 'lack of competition.'

Key word "some." And I would like to add that maybe a similar reasoning can exist with some black women..?

Defining Love Part 4

2010-09-07T01:23:00.000-07:00

The Story of Defining Love

Love conquers all…

Because love is all. It embodies everything: emotions, physical, spiritual, mental, blood, sweat, tears, pain, happiness, effort, desire, lust, stupidity, logic, stability, insanity, etc. Love can overcome and conquer anything and everything because it is made up of all elements.

If you have true Love, you have everything you will ever need to overcome all that life shall throw in your path.

Defining Love Part 3

2010-08-08T13:25:00.000-07:00

The Story of Defining Love

Love is Blinding...

So it is said. However, I beg to differ. Thinking you are in Love is Blinding. More than a blind fold, covering your ears just as well as your eyes, it proves time and time again to be all too overwhelming for anyone individual to overcome alone.

“Nope, see when we have kids, I’ll probably take a year off of work to be with the baby. Oh, I really hope they have his eyes!” She always spoke in terms of the future tense.

She was young. He was young. They still had so much to learn about themselves as individuals, but yet she was all too focused on the destination, she had put forth little thought on the journey. She was blinded to the roads that lay just beneath her feet, mustering all her might to only see that which she felt was her… their… ultimate fate; A life together.

True Love is understanding. It is equip with a sight more keen than that of an eagle’s, allowing one to see all obstacles that lie in front and the comprehension that a fork may lie in one’s path at times deviating them from the roads in which they travel. Love is so much more than a feeling, but it is a reality as well and a commitment on top of that. Part of True Love allowing unhindered range in sight, is being able to see, realize, and admit your level of self knowledge. If you need to deviate onto an alternate road to learn, experience, explore more of the realm of “You”, it doesn’t not mean you don’t love that other individual.

The girl who inspired this segment didn’t know that. When her boyfriend told her he needed to travel the world, she didn’t understand why. When her boyfriend told her he needed to join the military to test himself, she thought he was running away. When her boyfriend told her he would always be there for her, she thought he had already left her. She thought she was in love. He knew he was.

Love does not limit the individual.

Too be continued…

Defining Love Part 2

2010-08-04T19:45:00.000-07:00

The Story of Defining Love

Amidst mid stroke he stopped. “I love you.” He said the words as if they had been brewing on his mind for ages. But really what he meant was “I have a justly irreplaceable lust for your physical presence.” He really did love her though. So he thought anyway. What he failed to realize is that he had fallen in love with her presence. Merely just one aspect. Like taking a bite into a burger and just merely saying ‘I love the onions.’

Her eyes rose slowly from his chest to his chin, settling upon his eyes. “Baby, I love you too.” For her, she truly had lingered with the thought on prior occasions. She too believed she loved him. All of him. He made her laugh, he was smart, ambitious, handsome, and treated her well. McDreamy compared to her past relationships. But… is a love by comparison a true love?

The pair shared a moment they would never forget. Such a brief moment. Known to them then as enchanting. Understood by them later as a lesson learned.
On the road to defining love, we must first understand that love encompasses many facets. Without love for each facet: Body, mind, soul, spirit, behaviors, habits, history, future, present; True love cannot exist. Think of love as a self sustained ecosystem. All elements must be intact for it to exist, survive, and thrive.
True love is neither a portion nor a comparison.

The Story of Defining Love

Surely the idea and act of love didn’t pop out of thin air. Or did it? What is the history of Love, I mean to define something without knowing its history and its true origins is seemingly kind of irrational; but then again, that’s what we do with religion every day. But let me stray from stepping on any toes, and allow me to jump back on to the topic of defining love.

Love I know can be defined. There exist different ways to express and showcase love, but reality shows that there are shared common roots and characteristics of love.. True Love.

Man's Emotional Wall

2010-04-15T22:28:00.000-07:00

Women everywhere want to know.. “Why don’t men talk about their feelings?” It’s an age old question that the fairer sex has not quite yet been able to figure out. Truth be told ladies, you haven’t even gotten close. You try so hard and dig so deep, but yet the answer (although some may find it superficial) lies at the surface. A man is not allowed to show and/or express his feelings & emotions because society deems it a non-masculine trait. Picture society as this over pompous puppeteer, dictating how a “Man”, the stereotypical all mighty, never wavering, always secure and confident man should act, live, and evidently how close he is able to emotionally confide in his Lady counterpart.

Men find it nearly impossible at times to break away from these strings. This begins at birth, by the time he finds himself in the midst of a quality relationship, its a rap, it has become a subconscious characteristic. And just so that you don’t think men are using society as a scapegoat, there is an additional culprit: the Corpus Callosum. It’s the part of the brain which connects the left and right brain hemisphere. Staying away from the confusing scientifics of it all -but the gist is that this part of the brain is larger in women than in men. The result is that women can think and feel at the same time [i.e. often leading to emotional irrationality, but I digress], while men naturally separate their feelings from what they are thinking. This creates mans reluctance to talk about all that lovey dovey stuff that women love to hash out.

Life of a Sex Addict

2010-03-23T12:18:00.000-07:00

Addict – Defined as; someone who is physiologically dependent on a substance; abrupt deprivation of the substance produces withdrawal symptoms.

But NAWW we’re not DEPENDENT on sex :/ And we most certainly don’t experience WITHDRAW symptoms :\

Oh the lies we tell ourselves. Welcome, my name is Truth. I am that ugly side that stares you dead in your face only when you are strong enough, stupid enough, or confident enough to stand in from of a vacant mirror. I, like many of you, am no addict. Addicts are those who developed over zealous habits of drug use, alcohol intake, or OCD cases. Those people are addicts. Right?

So at this point it is important to understand who you’re trying to convince. Please, keep your excuses away from my ears cause I have heard it all. Chances are, if you’re reading this we have either A) had sex B) will have sex C) Are linked through the great vine sexually. Sex is a drug point blank. We put such a major emphasis upon sex in and outside of our relationships that it has grown to become this deity that we NEED in order to sustain ourselves as individuals or to sustain us within our relationships. We seek acceptance through sex, we seek to attempt to secure our partner by quickly engaging in sex, we seek fun and entertainment through sex, and we somehow have grown to believe that the word relationship is synonymous with sex.

I drank on average about once a week. I have gone months at times without drinking for one reason or another, and neither of these times have I felt physically or mentally “different” as if to be missing the act of drinking alcohol. But if I go months without engaging in sexual activities, I grow anxious. I steadily miss it, and slowly grow in my desire to have it. Whether it is with someone I am currently in a relationship with or with a new partner, my thoughts become drawn to the idea of having sex once again. The degree of these “feelings” vary from person to person, but fact is most of us share this commonality. Welcome to the world of being an Addict. The subtly is neither here nor there. The fact is that we experience some sort of withdraw symptoms and our minds become increasingly wrapped around the idea of having sex once more.

Still in denial? Well then you might just have more than the problem of being an addict on your hand.

To need to want..

2009-10-08T20:10:00.000-07:00

It is a weakness of a weak willed person to need someone in or around their life. But to Want, well that’s more of a selection process. Showing and indicating that other options are available to you, but through one’s own individual will and desire has chosen to choose that particular thing or individual.

I dream of the day a women tells me she doesn’t need me. She is whole when alone. She was whole in thought, body, mind, and spirit prior to encountering me, and I would only wish she not stray. I dream of the day a woman tells me she wants me. There are many other men in this world and no matter how cock sure I can pretend to be at times, I humbly respect the reality of neither being the world’s most attractive man nor smartest. By Her, telling me she wants me, gives proof to the indication that she truly and simply just enjoys and prefers my company.

p.s. For the record.. I want Her too.

Faith begins, Where understanding ends..

2009-08-30T12:51:00.000-07:00

Women are something I do not understand. So, I bargain. Or better yet, I barter. Offering my faith for that of which I cannot offer; comprehension. Please understand that I rarely do this. I, ladies, am humbling myself by admitting that my mind is unable to figure you all out. But enough of the mushy stuff, I have only come to this conclusion due to another conclusion.. One whom is confused or wavering in thought, cannot and will not be understood.

Disagree? Oh I should hope you do! Ladies, close your eyes and picture your ideal man; body type, style, level of intelligence. Is he ambitious? Goal oriented? Treats you like the queen that you are? Ok, now think of the guy you are currently dating or most recently dated. Is he a match? Does he match your description? 8/10 (and I’m being generous) will have said no, he doesn’t quite match up! Sooo with that being stated, Ladies, why is it that you are not going for what you truly want? No no don’t tell me all that b.s. about Love and how it comes in different forms and ish!! Straight up, majority of you all settle! You know HE is not what you “WANT” but yet you still give him a shot!

In all fairity (new word lol). Guys do this as well. So what’s the dif? Guys, we know when we are settling lol! Ladies you seem to get caught up in your confusion and fool yourselves into thinking “Mr. I dropped outta school to focus on my Rap Career” would somehow undoubtedly transform into “Mr. Hello I am a Lawyer and I own my own practice.” WishFul Thinking?? Haha I think NOT! Sounds more so like, mmm yea Confusion and Wavering in Thought!

*Ladies.. Stop fooling yourselves. Say what you mean, Mean what you say, and Go for what you want.

Why Black Men Love White Women..

2009-05-28T14:54:00.000-07:00

Why Black Men Love White Women..

These are my thoughts, but not my ways. I am only led to believe this by what I have seen before my eyes during my short lived 21 years of life thus far.

Well allow me to back track and begin by retitling it: Why SOME Black men love White women. The answer is simply attributed to society and the media. Haha how is thus so? Ahh I was hoping you would ask! Black men in America are viewed as lazy, and while I am no fan of stereotypes, many do tend to have a solid foundation in some truth from somewhere. Many black men, and well men in general at times, just like things to come easy. Ladies, ever hear how “you’re just so beautiful that men are intimidated by you”? Indirectly, this is true. Men can often times be intimidated by beauty because stereotypically beauty includes the needing of hirer standards (aka us needing to spend more money on you before we get you in bed) ß Warning: Stereotypical thought!.
So lets break it down.. What’s easy and what’s “not as easy”. Asians seem to naturally cling to their own, a pride of their ethnicity and definitely stressed in the house hold by mom and pops. Side note* I took a cute Asian chicka to a High School dance once.. Parents were so upset that I was black, they didn’t even see her off to the dance nor take pictures; simple dropped her off at the crib and burned madd rubber as they dipped off lol! SoOo Asians = Hard or harder than most.
“Black gurls have too much attitude!” Is the excuse most black men say as they run behind the tails of these white girls. Black women have no more attitude than any other race, but we all must agree we are taught that we must “Defy Odds” in are trials and tribulations of everyday racist America. This leads to a instinctive chip on all Black Americans’ shoulder. Next factor is Black man vs. Black woman is two of the same race speaking to one another. That since of comfort/equal playing field will allow more attitude to be displayed. You argue with your peers/friends more than you do elders because lets face it, ur on a equal playing field with that peer.
Hispanics? Same deal yall. Hispanics and Blacks are both bottom of the food chain in America’s hierarchy, we often coexist in the same neighborhoods (LongBeach for damn sure). More often than not Hispanics are up on the urban trends and hell – raise your hand if you have a Hispanic friend back home that you let say the N~word! Lol Cmon don’t lie! We’re so in the same boat that they can easy get classified with back gurls as having too much attitudes and well that only leaves us with one more option..
WHITE CHICKS!!! Now this is where media comes into play. Now-a-days in the States and hell all over the globe, who doesn’t want to act Black and have that urban swag to them?! And for those who are furthest from this (whites) it can become most appealing. And well lets not forget we [Black Men] have the legend of being.. umm caring.. well “packing a lil sum extra below the belt” lol if ya know what im sayin! Yall know what im sayin lol! White gurls want what is fascinating and want what they are “not suppose to have” and these combinations of things makes them an easy catch. If a fish jumped in your boat, would you throw it back out to sea?? ShooooTTT I mean I love CatFish, but if some Salmon just jumped in my boat all wet and naked.. I am only a man ;)

(Society + Media) = White women wanting Black Men x Black Men wanting the easy road =
= Black Men Dating White Women

P.s. I love Black Women

No one in the game and no one to ever play the game can stop either of these players (No offense Joe Dumars and Scotty Pippen). So with no further adue lets get down to business.. Whos Better? Back to the basket neither are seen by no opposition, driving to the hole.. its a green light all day long for both of these gentlemen. Difference is.. Their pure ability to shoot the ball. King James has a range never before seen, but the consistancy of that of the Black Momba, is like that of a dagger to the heart.. Sure to kill! Kobe can rest his lorals on his shooting game, causing his defenders to guard both his drive and to respect his shot!

Check out game 3 Orlando vs. Cavs. Hedu played a good foot and a half off of him the whole night, defence like that against Kobe is surely detremental! A team with great help defence ca aid in the slowing of leBron, but not Nay help can assist with Kobe. Houston had arguably the 2 BEST preimeter defenders in Shane and Artest, routating guarding Bryant, the other meanwhile in help and not to mention the bulldog Scola and the Tallest player in the League Yao Ming clogging up the Lane.. Yet still Kobe Bryant maintianed a scoring average throughout the series that was higher than that of his season average! Quite Impressive ;)

p.s. Key pointer as well.. Check out how often LeBron drives to the hole and creates a quality shot for himself but yet still ends up passing it off. No doubt the kid is a great passer but hey man, if u have a higher potential shot than the person your dumping it off to, then you (as a leader) got to take it!

Billy Ray Little:
“The word cool is a personification of the Chinese ideal known as yin and yang, the perfect balance of life and the way... be like water, go around rocks don’t push… soon they’ll erode… cool equals change and growth. This can be applied in all aspects of life including swag, fashion etc.”
