relatively sweet

in the deepest of settle-ings.....i find it most intriguing to stir in me....

to quiet myself.....

unscatter the thoughts....

and breathe





there is an openness quite unique.....that feels ever so sweet
but hardly seems able to be found.....

rather....

it arises from a lack of longing.......
not that longing sends it away....

but almost something that is usually stumbled upon rather than discovered intentionally.....

as least when You've been away for awhile.....



when attending regularly to this rhythm of waves crushing away the most vocal impulses.....
it is as though You recognize the dance.....

You may not be able to just turn on a song to create the cadence of the body......

but the more You are in the steps....

the more You sway so intentionally to that sequence.....


the more You know how to groove in it ever so right.....

and so relatively sweetly...

deep in the soul.....open in the light

ending work
coming home
and creating some space

and everything and You in between.....

this has truly been a most beautiful day......and its been a long time.....a loooooonnng time....since one like this.......i guess i should of expected it....
for peace to return......

and to find it by leaving worry....

Romans 8 has been on the brain and will be my focus for the month....v.31 down....my friend Adrianna mentioned it....and it sounded good....but for some reason its really hitting me know when I ended up on it a few days later.....

my other friend Kristin wrote this, and it moved me at the end with Matt. 6



its crazy, two amazing ladies who are making a difference in my life that I barely talk to

Ladies are important to have in Your lives as friends....the ones that I have are monumental to creating the person I am today....And I'm thankful for the ones I don't get to talk that inspire me just be being themselves.......

Gents: grow up, or be like kids......actually be like kids, cause while girls kinda have cooties(coodees? coo D's?) as kids.....they were allowed to be our best friends without ever treating them wrong.....or worrying about who liked who.....You get to be deep friends....valuing each other for any and no reason at all.....boy, girl, fat, skinny, ugly, pretty......friends........

and Ladies: after You know that You won't have to beat the guy over with a wrench to leave You alone(cause there have just been too many guys taking mental and physical advantage of women), trust the guy, or guys.....be friends....stick him in the friend ZONE! but he needs You just as much, if not more, as You need a guy You can trust and talk to...and one that is not a family member.

I will say briefly....i have had a strong hate in my heart...i know hate...way too emotional sometimes, for women that just would not talk. or thought all I was doing was trying to date them, was crushing on them, or had these legalistic views of male and female relationships.....

but we created that as men.....we helped them create those views with our ignorance.....and I'm not saying women are incapable for thinking and making their own ideas, i don't think that could be farther from what i think......

i just want to say sorry for my ignorance....
sorry for my hatred that You never, no one ever, deserves.........





Today
totally
beautiful:


Except for Brazil.....dang...my heart still hurts for Brazilia......UGGHHHH
but beautiful none the less....


anyways.....

Love has found a way and it is quite lovely to see.....

here's another try, we fail,

I fail, but I have to try writing again.....

When the world begins to talk

So I know these posts are barely making it within the month......but it's a start....

This month was not so like March.....kind of a steady decline in some aspects.....

With complete greatness in others......

So weird......

But I really do see things changing.....
And the brain seems to be speaking volumes of what's going to be changing.....
Ideas to flow deeply.....

Areas to really start from scratch......

And I really do Love it so.....

Here's to paying attention to the details.....

And doing so much more than just barely finishing what I start.....

twenty:six

i haven't written this month and twenty six is proving to be as monumental as i thought it would be.....

i am having some of the best moments and growth of my life....

and also experiencing a few lows and some definite difficulties.......

may i be ever so faithful and remain true....

26 will make me

2nd Half of Rest

Maya Angelou is the first we will celebrate this month......
I Love her work and encourage You to do some research on her.....

Today is the rest day.....so any info You are looking for on her You should do sometime soon: or today on Your own......Blessings every one: Celebrate Our Black History........

God had to create the whole world....universe.....and thought one day should still be used to rest.......

Post: and feel free to comment on anything You like here: express related or unrelated thoughts: i like talking: or even just listening: use Your real name: make up a name: i don't care if i never get to know that You are one of my closest(or farthest) friends that i know in real life and i never realize it cause You make up a fake name...... im sure that our conversation may be more honest than it is now though....and maybe we will work on it becoming honest if You would like later: but i won't ever try to find out Your secret identity!

So write: comment: claim and point idiot if You want. but don't feel afraid to express Yourself, because what ever You think, i know i will grow from Your comments, questions, thoughts, and ramblings... and hopefully

truth.

Let us begin with

The real McCoy: standardd of Excellence
Oil cup
Hair restoration
AC: house cooling, not the electric current
The stop light
Plastic from soy beans
Coffee, milk, and shaving cream: from beans
Peanut butter
Carbon filement
Laser removal
Touch tone telephone
The fiber optic cable
First open heart surgery


Just to name a few......
Thank You that we can célèbre at the differences, creativity and inventions of some of the most resilient people I know.......


It's Black History month......
Let's give honr where it is most assuredly due.

Excellence

I met a Woman today, a missionary, almost three times my age.....

with amazing Joy....

and heart.....


despite my best efforts and everything i may feel that i have accomplished.....

She has lived my life three times over

experience i'm sure i can't even hold a candle to

and it was amazing hearing her give wisdom....

humbly.....

and honest.






if i had one good life.....one life i lived with true excellence....i think amazing things to change the world with it would happen.....i mean a good life of like 26, 27........and then if i could do it two more times.......in excellence......maybe i could do something honorable with the years that i have that could be worthy of the approval of this Lady......




i have a couple friends that i need to help.....

and the way she was so helpful today....

just because.....

reminded me.....

to give as freely as i have received.....

what ever they need: may i have the wisdom to help guide and never put my comfortability above their care.

Rest

I failed at this predominately today: i let a 30 minute task turn into a 5 hour one.....but I will not make a habit of failure......8.05pm and on my way to bed. Hope You all got to rest.....

God had to create the whole world....universe.....and thought one day should still be used to rest.......

date

for some reason(i just realized what the reason was.....but im not saying) i was thinking of what would actually happen if i was dating someone(anyone) right now.....and i didn't like it.

it was earily real....within my minds eye.....as though its been going on for months and i am just sick of being stuck in our routine of dating....there isn't even an "us" or "we" or a kinda "us/we"......

i've become comfortable being single....(this is feeling like i have written about this before: my apologies if so....i don't usually read past posts(especially since its been about a year))

and i prefer it so much.....
that i was dreading the thought of being with someone.....

how terrible.....

and aside from dating....

how isolated i clearly have become.......

its not dating that is the problem, it seems like its me wanting to use every moment for me

to stick to my plan

get my things done

make sure my money is spent as i decided

that i get the sleep i want

work out when ever i feel in the day



as though i have no capacity to inconvenience my self for others.....

i almost became rude tonight in doing a favor for a friend simply because i didn't feel like doing it

this is not You Rome......

this is not what You decided to give as Love

life is about giving to others

-to me, giving AS freely as i have received it




and im stuck with trying to find more time to receive......



im sorry to You all for my selfishness

im sorry You haven't been able to see my Love for You....
i wasn't really giving it....and if it seemed like it.....im sure it is only a shade of my true self.......and You all deserve all of me.


dating will figure itself out. i've never been one to think that im going to decide how two of us will spend a relationship....there is an entire universe of an individual that would be able to be there next to me through those decisions.....we may end up at the same spot and thoughts.....but i will never limit them to that.....especially before it has even happened

"Beautiful things don't seek attention"

every single time.....

and in every single glimpse......

i was never looking for beauty when it hits

there is a spot i like.....its a little weird cause it faces where the Crosby's live.....


But on a fence out there....

usually when i'm leaving work

if You stand on one of the post.....

You have one of the most amazing views of the sunset......

it doesn't need to be recorded.....

doesn't need to be pictured.....



it just happens as i walk.....

and while it may feel initially weird.

i don't ever regret it

i'm captivated

and thankful when it does happen

and while i usually want to duplicate the occasion

finding it, casually on my way, always seems to be the most entrancing.......

be sure to enjoy the moment when it appears....
actually,



enjoy the beautiful moments when You take time to realize they have been there all along.

















yea i thought of Dulce when that line was spoken


and the feelings were spurred in a majestic of ways.....
settle down though. patience is best as our enduring companion at. all. times.

Say something

It's amazing how much our lives say about us without asking our permission...... or allowing us to truly cover it up......what is happening on the inside is seeping out and about our every movement.....so maybe it's good to just ask for help: to listen to someone who will simply tell You the truth of what they see in Your life....to let them speak unfiltered and to tell You what are the thoughts that they have of You:

do i appear timid?

do i seem swayed by the next ocean of ideas that come my way?

what does my life tell You is the most important thing to You?

what do You see me spend the most energy/time/effort talking/thinking/caring about???

how would You define me to someone You would want me to date?

what do You see as my weaknesses?

I always thought it so telling of a movie or show when the main character receives advice for their lives, that they didn't ask for or was seeking, but it applies to their life....in the most important things, that no one else really knows about.....but their advice still remains true......

it just seemed to me....that the problems that we have....are deeper than just sectioned off pieces of our lives....our home problems run into our friend problems that run into our finance problems that run into our work problems that hinders our relationship problems.....because we are too whole to separate ourselves......

we can't just live one way here and another there.....
and while we may set up the wall for a while.....time always lowers it just a little to show who You are.....
sometimes i think You should just take down the wall altogether...and let someone Love(not romantically, but maybe You need romance) You...

its so hard to do that huh......but its not gonna stop me from trying.....to learn to be more vulnerable....to pull down my walls....and receive Love.....

which would also be the only time i would be able to give real Love......







In a completely other thought not at all related....a thought that caught me driving today....



can i tell You You're as gorgeous as the moon.........

on a wonderfully clear night....


or maybe as the night sky......

without the moon.....
a blanket

Love You Dear Lady

Where do i begin

the first image for me to wake up to for the new year was a dream of Dulce......for some reason we were on a computer and she placed her left elbow over my right with our hands up to then be intertwined. As though to get in the way of me using the computer, she used her left hand on the keyboard while i already had my right hand on the mouse......

i asked her, laughing, "did we really just become one of those couples??" 

and she just laughed.....

Nothing has changed with Dulce....Nothing better, that I know of....maybe worst.....

and nothing has changed because i haven't done anything to change anything....

i did realize that her affect over my actions is quite intoxicating......

i speak like an idiot to her.....every time....

i can give(really just share) wisdom with my students to help with communicating correctly and effectively.....

i can help Lance(and he HELP me) back in the day with people he was talking to....

i could converse ideas with Victor and learn more from how he spoke....

i could talk with Fabe, or Swin, about ideas and relationships and what we believed with wonderful excellence.......

but with her......

with her why would anything work correctly???

i'm surprised my fingers/lips or even actions for solid singular thoughts let alone stupid statements: which by the way simply get ignored( i think) while i can understand my complete block head actions(did i mention most of these are texts or messages online....yea....like a tool) i think the thing that i don't understand about her(which causes the most frustration) is that she. just. doesn't. respond. 

i don't care who You are

or what You've done

or what has happened.......

if You try to communicate with me

i Will get back to You.....

it may be longer than usual.....

but i Will.....

anyways......

she was perhaps the most beautiful image for me to ever wake up to....i almost got caught by her sister the last time i had a dream about her :/

but still:

Focus-

heart

PURE

h e a r t

i love the drive that can be spurred by the heart

and how the soul can follow in suit

how breath can live again deep within

with each beat deepening to allow the course to flow so strongly

one idea from the source 

pushed to every crevice of my being

today it has been excellence

the possibility of living every single moment with it

and what it looks like to be something that i have been involved with

what does it look like when i join a project

how does it look different after i have picked up an assignment for a year

how do my fellow employees notice my difference

do my fellow employees dread working with me

or do i bring hope to every time we have a shift together because they know things will be done excellently

who is the "i" that i give

even for Dulce: the crap that i put forth from being intimidated or cowardly effects how i communicate with her and possible how she may even listen to words that i may have to speak to her that could change her life

the way that i give to everyone

and how i could really give so much more of this life i squander so well

excellence is there and has made it self steadily more vocal....

and not only available to me but for everyone

with every decision

every action

message

word 

and beat

just one step at a time

focus on one item until it is done, maybe a small few.....

and move on.....

its better then having everything on my plate

for me to view

without hardly anything getting done

and if anything

definitely not sustainably

i love fresh starts 

possibly more than most other things.....

but i also LOVE finishing a story....

and thats where i'm enjoying this day from: 

fresh

old

continuous

story......and its finally moving.....
