Mindful Thoughts

                                  SUICIDE WILL NEVER BE ME! 

Me commit suicide?? NEVER! for whom?? NO ONE, and what would I do such a thing?? NOTHING!
I REFUSE to give anyone that POWER and/or PLEASURE!
I'll only be leaving you to try and be the person you were meant to be,I want the same struggles to live,love,cry,struggle,fail, and triumph!! Suicide you'll never be me, I am too strong.I'll surely overcome! :D

"WHAT I NOW KNOW THAT,  I WOULD'VE TOLD MYSELF THEN "

Have faith and believe that you are someone very special indeed.

Let no addiction take control of you.

It is true,not everything that glitter is gold.

You don't always have to burn to learn, lessons are all around; if you can see and appreciate them for what they are.

Your true happiness, peace, contentment is up to you.it is not up to nothing or no one else.

Don't let the fear of the things you have not stop you from believing to dream.

The difficult times that you'll go through will not kill you but make you much stronger.

Guard your mind and treat it right..feed it positively and seek for it to grow.

It is more than ok for you to be by yourself..you don't always have to be in company.

Don't be pressured by anyone in doing something you don't want to.

Never underestimate anyone.

Discipline and selfcontrol you should want to be a part of who you are.

Be forgiving with other's and don't forget to forgive yourself more.

Love all people,always doing your very best to get along even with the oh so difficult.

Be accepting..judging nor looking down upon no one no matter the situation.

Don't let anyone put a price on your worth..value yourself and never cheapen who you are for the amusement of anyone.

Build upon what you already have and try to squeeze the lemon juice from the lime.

Be humble and know that pride is the downfall of many a great men and nations.

You can't do everything by yourself,know when to accept and ask for help.

Just be patient; don't be in too much of a hurry on the right path your destiny and you will surely greet.. even collide .

Place love above any and all worldly material possesion..two halves of souls meeting is the ultimate treasure to gain.

Never try to fit the mold of another man's clay no matter what; be your authentic you.

Take care of yourself no one really care about you more than you.

Don't be too naive or too desperate to confuse your enemy as a friend.

Don't be too desperate and settle for anything.

Do away with anger..Do your best to conquer fear..Never wallow in self pity.

Anxiety get the best of us but get over it as fast as you can.

A part from the higher power; you are the captain of your ship so always have self control,never be easily tempted or easily angered.

Be strong and never let the weak one tear you down.

Be in the present, look..listen..and pay close attention to see what is underneath all the obvious that they want you to see, and always give even more than110%.

Even though life is oh so serious when you really think of it..it is not so serious.

Give yourself time to, and room to truely grow.

Trust your gut,your intuition.it'll never steer you wrong.it is within to protect you.

Education doesn't start and stop in the schools,it's up to you to educate you.

As much as you think you are..not even you're perfect;you will make many mistake before this life is anywhere near ending.

To: Life..Love..Peace..Art..
&
Wanting the very best for yourself..
Morally..Spiritually..Emotionally..Physically & Financially. ENJOY....



"WHO WERE WE MEANT TO BE"

Who am I meant to be? I always felt within that i wanted to be someone great  but at what; I did not know.

We are all special, with something fantastic to offer to the world at large.but,with the stress and worry of our daily lives,worrying about the mundane things(Lodging,food,bills etc,etc) we often get carried away,not giving the much needed attention to us and the things that we atleast have a minimum of talent at.I realize that having a steady income can make us so comfortable ,being able to pay that car note,rent is never behind and so forth,with those basic things we can somehow settle. sometimes unconciously never digging,searching for that specialness  to shine.Now I am not saying we should quit our jobs,just that we need to invest in some soul searching.

Other than that sometimes the enviroment that is surrounding us make it darn near impossible to dream about rising above what is before us..
I met this lady once that i'll call Beth(honestly don't remember her name) now this Beth and I got to talking about about making it in the entertainment business,since it was in california that I met her,as our conversation progressed she started talking about her daughter  and  the fact that her daughter wanted to be in the movie industry.after she told me she added something along the line of "she doesn't see anything wrong with the life that she's had and her daughter not wanting to be like her mother" .
what I got from that was that the daughter should want to follow in her footsteps,she shouldn't have her own thoughts,her own dreams.and for this Beth, life was not even remotely great or good,she tried to pass  herself off like  she was a nurses' aid or something, but she was in fact  a prostitute and not a high class one at that. with signs of a drug abuser.

Sometimes the people we think had or should have our best interesst at heart do not;all they want to do is to drag you down their one way street of death.wanting you to never rise above anything that they see or think is far out of their reach.and, believe it some people are very good at spotting greatness.with bad intentions,envy,jealousy,and hate will do all that's in their power to keep you down.in a situation like that,it is better to be by one's self .what is good for the goose is not always good for the gander.

It takes someone very special ,with a good heart to not lead you to death with no intention of you ever rising up when its in their power to do so.if i could be granted one wish that would be for  all of humanity to get one good,positive naturer in our lives,it can be difficult to see the light from the dark if all we're surrounded by is darkness.

all the greatness we could ever be is inately within us;like a seed but for that seed to sprout its little bud and to blossomed into a beautifull flower or fruitfull tree it needs to be loved and natured.
With all that said ,ultimately it need to start with us;its our responsiblity if we live or die.you can lead a camel to the water but you can't force it to drink from it to save its own life.
I know some of us love to talk on the  phone,to be entertained by the television and radio,riding around in cars, going no place important.obsessing over the object of our wanting to place affection .all of that is just pure and simple distraction.if you're never alone to really think ,how will you hear your thoughts? when there's too much commotion going on.
All things need to be placed in perpective and be done in moderation,some need to be done less.
Among other things I want to be a author,I keep telling myself but if I don't work at it I won't be,I don't want to be just any author but a great author like materials that i've read with great articulation,story, and the likes.dreaming is one thing but dreams are dreamt for the doing. they're desires that has great potential for manifestation,back the talk up with the walk.All we can do at times is to give our best,but we ought to give it our best.

To be truely  great at anything in life takes hardwork,dedication,discipline,patience,courage,willpower,perservarance among other things.

I was young once;let me correct myself and say, I was younger once too when it was about the material stuff and how my jeans fit; I even did some of the partying,bad company,the drugs(Pot)etc,etc, and it was all good at the time,but as time go by I started to want more,I wanted to be fly on the inside so it could be manifested on the outside and what I do.
Someone asked me once "what will your legacy be,what would I give and leave to the world" after my flesh is no more, I forget what my answer was but I never forgot the question,nor where I was or by whom was that question asked; it resonated deep within me. still to this very day.so not to be cheesy "what will your legacy be"?  

Now I won't sit here and say that I am that evolved because I am not, I do struggle to stay focus,disciplined ans all that good stuff.an excellent example is that I don't fancy editing,but I know that I will have to get with the program sooner or later,for whatever I write to be half way presentable.even though I did start at what I would call a rather late time in my life;I am determined to battle my way ahead.

It can be hard to stay positive and keep faith strong all the time when you're trying your best and not seeing any positive rewards/results.So,you have to make sure it's something you love and can see yourself doing till the end.

I take great pride when I see how much i've improved and continuing to improve,I won't try fool myself to think that i've reached that place,because I couldn't even if I wanted to, I have far to go yet.

 I would also be lying if I pretend and act like it wouldn't be nice to make a living at them, infact i would love to,but at the same time,it's not that important i've always done what am doing now without imagining the possibilties of monetary gains .I just wasn't this focus,they were subconcious passions of mine that i could escape into,now I have a new attitude.

For my accomplishments even if they're for my own eyes only;I feel grand;I feel like a winner.regardless of the outcome.because I am making myself proud,that is a great feeling to have.

Once on the right path its not about gaining financially but for me it's about growing into more than I thought I ever could.
I have to confess that I show my art for no other reason than that i grew,am growing.and I want to share it with the world; not in a conceited way or anything like that. but to show that no matter what anyone wants to think of me or you,we have it within us to excell,to break of whatever confinement we or anyone else wants to box us in.
I know for me(could be for you too) its just the tip of the iceberg and I am intriqued and excited about at what tier I will be at in say five years time, even in the next year.

Education is the key but a lack of it shouldn't stop progress,it is mind over matter; it is within us to learn and achieve whatever we want,be an autodidact if you will.

Don't forget to dream big,remember that you wanted a car and you never stopped until you had your car.you wanted a house,you have your home now,you wanted that corner office,now you have your office with a beautiful view. we need to start as early as we concious of our growth potential

                                                            "BATTLES OF THE GODS"

My evolving belief is that there's not one,not two higher power;there're  many gods and we are all individually assigned one each( Demi Gods answering to one higher God,maybe?).I could say angels but its not fitting.A spiritual being that is neither a he nor a she,it is whomever or whatever we want them to be.

Seeing as its all on the spritual realm(dismissing the outershell) we are all gods.

It would be cruel to think and say that the one god that society say we are to worship and trust in would want its people whom it has made in its own image and likeness; for some to be better off in the sense that some of us mortals are good(atleast we try to be) while others are rotten to the core(never trying to be better) would be one in the same.

Stronger the god stronger the mortal that it is within, likewise stronger the mortal spiritual soul is(faith,belief,conviction all we need to succeed).God does not favor one over the other, but like any parent would do whatever it took for its family to be well cared for ,well provided for and well protected so does our spiritual governing deities and like the saying goes "only the strong survive" .weak we are if we should believe and depend on the earthly,physical shell. not a day,hour,minute or second go by when the gods are not on the battle field.

Like "birds of one feather that flock together" there're  sides in every which battle.one good soul cannot defeat a thousand evil souls, so unions will be formed and may the strongest win.the winner will be manifested in the outcome of our earthly bodily sucessess.

(Ongoing,maybe my belief will evolved into something else)

The Constant "Battles Of The Gods"
                                       

"BORED: QUESTIONS TO MYSELF"

(1)Yesterday was like today..yet today is not yesterday!how weird is that..why can't it remain the same?

(2)Time really waits on no one..but why not for me?

(3)Cooking rice and peas without coconut milk is no good..STILL my version to my colorfull palette tastes really great...am I slowly loosing my island roots?

(4)If midday catches me still in bed,does that mean that am a lazy son/daughter of a gun or because i went to sleep too late?

(5)Loner, people say that im crazy..is it still true if i don't see dead people?

(6)Kings are always most likely intoxicated..so could we say that he's really not the one ruling his kingdom?

(7)With no thoughts in my head and i'm not brain dead, is my mind awake or asleep or about to arise or about to slumber?

(8) Having nothing to say that is making sense,should I be quiet or should I carry on with my nothingness? I think I should so this is the end!

"FRIENDS BEWARE"

Friendships are never to be formed or to be taken lightly when this world is so filled with the "wolf's in sheep's clothing".people are to be poked,prodded. to be tested and tried to the very core;sad to say but most if not all people are not to be trusted. it is naive of anyone who're to quick.

We as humans are tricky and cunning creatures,atleast we think we are and are set on a path to decieve;when all is well its like the sun is always shining and we pretend to be the best souls in the world.especiallly when they are after something that they think you can give to them, if they show how kind,wonderful and thoughful they are, when in fact they are the complete opposite. but you'll never know until the appointed time comes. when they think their battle will not end favorably for them..

Everybody claim that they are the smartest;thinking they're getting over,after all is said and done,who's really the conner and who's really getting conned?

Pettiness to no end you'll see,you'll see how small that person really is.one's true self will eventually rare its ugly little head.for however long it might take; the end result matters more than anything else.sometimes it is not about the journey but the final destination.

People need people,this I know for sure.but i'll take one real genuine person over the many imposters that are sure to gather like moth to a flame. sometimes its not to get from you but to keep you down,to lead you down the dead end,no good,destrutive path that they are on.

bribers and enticers are to be kept at a far distance,they are malicious plotters who're determined to sink their hooks in by any means necessary.

You have some people who are apt at bullying their way in,trying their best to intimidate you into joining them, and god forbid the ones who are highly inflated by themselves that they just don't get why you are not falling  over yourself to be their friend,because they are "so great and such a great catch".

Everything takes two(sometimes more) and in any union it can't work with one always taking and putting nothing back, friendships should be mutually benefitting.

We shouldn't feel bad or worry about giving someone a hard time, as i'm sure that's the way they'll see and take it. we should and all have standards and criterias that we have,demanding of and we shouldn't settle for less in our consumating of anything we decide to welcome in our circle no matter how tiny or how big that circle is.if not, then we'll take in any thing and its quality over quantity.

"LIFE'S BREWING"

I sit alone and wonder..
Are we really alive, or. Are we dreaming??
What if after all the hustling and bustling we do,day to day.. is really in vain..

What if one day we just suddenly wake up,and realize that we have to start it all over again..

I DON"T MEAN LIKE YOU GO TO SLEEP AND THEN WAKE IN THE MORNING,but EVERYTHING, I guess like how it was at creation?? ( not as in reincarnation,which I believe in)and we remembering everything like it was yesterday? but we haave to start again from scratch

I wonder how people would feel,don't you??

I wonder if we as human beings will ever really find peace in the purest and undiluted form?? ( Some people's true happiness is based on money ,if they are never rich i guess they'll live in misery to the very end)

What if animals are superior to us, and little Rats, and Cats and Dogs.. are really the ones in controll of everything we as humans think we do??

I know its written in the bible how mankind came to be..But..
I still wonder how everything is the way it is..life and nature is perfect,each one compliments the other.

I;m going as far as to say human beings are animals just different shape and sizes and what not.well we are,in my opinion,animals communicate just like us..they bark,moo and whatever.. homo sepiens are some beasts.Just like people from different places in this world speaks different languages..and we all don't understand them..well if we took the time to learn them we can(to an extent for some).

How did we learn to think?? and how do we know that our thoughts are correct and are thoughts?

Where did teeth come from?? OR HAIR ON OUR SKIN?,It's not like we have teeth storing on shelves somewhere in our bodies..say you pluck a hair from the follicle,not shaving it and leaving the root behind,But taking it from the root..how did it come back??

I wish i could be alive and go in time to this judgment time where there'll be brimstones and fire (Yeah i don't think so) and what not..

Will there really be a heaven,with the pearly gates?? or will earth,where we living now be it?,Or is it like the wealthy versus the poor?

Does poor equals Hell??
Wealth equals Heaven??

I know we feel pain and such by nerves and muscles and what not,BUT..how did we get them in the first place?

The eyes?? how does it see??

ARE we really seeing? or Hearing??

I mean our senses say that we are..Aww I guess we will never really know..We can only guess and assume we know the answers..and that they are correct.as we are a society that is made up of theorists,we have all the answers (Not)

I find that we as humans never really know..we go through life; dare I say pretending??Maybe it's simple for others, but its not for me.I'll keep wondering,sitting alone..
How this all came to be?

"SANE Vs INSANITY"

What makes one crazy?? Or thinking they are,when in fact they're not.
There's such words as Bipolar,Personality disorder,Mentally disturbed( The list goes on and on).Is it true or do these people just actors of sort,Acting crazy on purpose??.I think, and this is my own opinion, that people,not all but some;they think its cool to act crazy! I can guess that its fun to watch people and knowing what they're thinking about you.some really don't care what others think.

When we see homeless people on the streets,Automatically we think they are soo deranged,we streer clear of them,cross the street even. Not all but some are as "crazy" as you and me but the difference is we keep it in check,atleast in public. some people whom society think are so sane can be the craziest but they know how to be around the "normal folks" it is a shame at times how we cannot ever really get inside someone else's person completely.the wonders and madness we'd encounter.

Boundaries or limits we won't cross,others would do anything to be seen as normal,but not to these self proclaimed "Crazies" its (Again my own opinion) like a protection,a shield.Make no mistake,some of these people are infact crazy...Then you have those who brag about being a loony but push come to shove,Nada. human nature and behaviour are as complicated as making it from one day to the next.A loner does not necessarily means "Crazy"

"LIGHT FROM THE DARK"

Society as instilled in every generation that what is most important is our outer appearance,it is willing to overlook how the inside really is and how it ought to be. so we who are mostly sheeps we fight our hardest to look the part,and in so doing we neglect the most important part and that is the inside,our heart,soul,spirit,aura. our inside must be more shiny and beautiful than the out,with that, even what society would deemed "ugly" the most physical "beauty" cannot be compared to.

The material world is the contributing factor of darkness,not many will be willing to die of that world to be born into the light..this life is not about you or me,it is not about rich or poor,it is not about the have or the have not.it is only about good versus evil,it is about winning souls,and that is why there is a opposite to every thing this life will ever have to offer. we all have have to choose between the two,but we are soo distracted by the glits and glamour that we don't even see that we are lost.

"May the good find its way into you,me and everyone else's soul,spirit and entire being, let us not be trapped by the disillusions of all temptations,may we always find the strength and faith in the light to fight the darkness"
