There are times when you do things, and also help people without thinking twice,,,,,selfless act on your part, ,,,,,then you forget about it, because it was just no big thing,,,,,today i was wrong in thinking that people dont remember those things.,,,,they do,,,,,,and when that appreciation was expressed to me in the form of a FATHER’S DAY CARD,,,,AND AFFECTIONATE HUGS,,, it brought a tear to my eye,,,,,,,,thank you!!,,,,,,i needed that tear,,,,,,,,What is it about DEATH that bothers people?  DEATH , in itself, is nothing,,,,the body just dies…..it has been released from its earthly obligations!   All living things must have a life span,,,,,,except TIME which is unending……after a while, the body becomes dust…….we do not know what happens next (no scriptures involved ) the person whose body dies still remains in our hearts,,,,in there he/ she still lives…..just as songs/ music remain with us as long as someone remembers, or even sings them!  So mourn not…(too long ) even though, the body is gone ,,,the memories remain….

So, where do we go from here? going east , we will meet the ,EAST INDIANS……;going west, will bring us to the WEST indians;;;;;;;going north will take us to the NORTH POLE (ugg…too cold);;;;;going south will take us TOO FAR OUT!;;;;;;;going up means we are in space;;;; and going down means we are already dead!!! so what do we do? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!! STAY RIGHT THERE,,,DON’T MOVE,,,,BREATHE THE FRESH AIR,,,,, AND REALLY ENJOY THE MOMENT,,,THE PRESENT,,,THE NOW;;;;;;;;because, if you move, you will lose it!!!,,,,,,,The only certainty of life is uncertainty!!!,,,,it is said that when people die,after a period of time , one has to let go…….suppose we analyze this statement……when you let go, did you ever consider the fact that you are letting go of reality, of memories, or events involving the people who passed away??? and by holding on, you are holding on to those very things which keep them alive in your hearts? hmm!,,,,there is a time to laugh. love. and reach for the sky,,,,,,,,,,,,,but there is also a time to cry, mourn, grieve , and die!! (M.O.

Do not compare your life to that of a film star,,,,movie actor,,,, they are just actors,,,,they play their their parts,,,,,,,,,,,actually your beliefs and lifestyle may be WAY BETTER than theirs in real life ….. feel good about yourself,,, you are numero uno!!!     And ,PLEASE DO NOT IGNORE THOSE WHO HAVE PROVED THEIR LOVE FOR U,,,, THEY ARE NOT ACTORS!!!!     they r genuine,,,,Think not of yesterday nor of tomorrow but only of the moment,,and you will be ok,,,,the past BRINGS MUCH SADNESS, AND THE FUTURE IS UNKNOWN! Reflections of lost loved ones,, or wondering about losing loved ones will not help……just enjoy every single moment with the living ones!! ……….Think not of yesterday nor of tomorrow but only of the moment,,and you will be ok,,,,  How one dies may be a lesson-type language,,,,,,,,,how one lives is the EXPERIENCE……..live a decent life, and people will talk about that, and NOT how you passed away!

Happiness comes when that ray of sunshine pierces thru those thick, dark clouds of oppression, desperation,, isolation,, depression, etc etc,,,,and hits you with full impact , thus lighting up your whole life…….SADNESS::just a universal tool used to instill in us the APPRECIATION OF GOOD THINGS!,,,,,,,,because if you don’t experience the bad things in life, how will you recognize the good things???       LIFE itself is but a mere dream in which there is a universal connection or interaction,,,but when we become awake and really face the harsh realities of the PRESENT, ,, ,,,we may wish we had never awaken,,,and return to the dream , and then DREAM NO MORE! ,,,,Do not dwell in the past….that is beyond your ability to change….have no regrets because that was the way you chose to live your life….think of the present….dwell in the present…do not live in the future because that is very uncertain! find strength in what you have to survive the day,,,,,,,because when tomorrow dawns, it will still be called TODAY………SO IN A MATTER OF SPEAKING., now is the past, present and future rolled in one!! …..

I greet the darkness with alacrity, and an ardent fervor , like lovers greeting each other,because then no one can see my anguished countenance , nor read my emotions, nor see the tears of despair and loneliness streaming down my already swollen cheeks;;;;now the darkness and i have become soul mates moving in unison, forever pushing forward leaving all burnt bridges behind and forgotten,,,overcoming insurmountable odds,, neither fearful of no one nor anything except the devilish daylight (when we will just dissipate like snowflakes on a warm summer’s day ) and also the inevitable bad weather… (mike 09/08/2014)

Sometimes, it seems that you are doing so much for someone, but get nothing in return………does it bother you or not?    of course!   ,,,,we are humans…so it does.  but how about we try not to show the disappointment,,,,but keep on supporting those people…..wouldn’t that feel better?  you decide.    It feels good,,,,then we become disappointed again!   like a vicious cycle……one life…one love??     if you never had something, then how can you say you lost it?? now , on the other hand , when you do have something…even friendship, and it’s gone….that definitely is a loss!!

When u think about your present situation….don’t worry too much

  about it …there are millions worse off..so do you cry…worry…OR DO U START TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT?…IF U WANT TO STAY IN THE HOLE….GOOD FOR U …hope they dont cover it……so Get up. Do something…..one life….do the best…dont be a coward!!!

Along life’s journey , we encounter numerous people of different personalities…be it good..great or bad…this has nothing to do with it .     But among these people there are those who excel    not to others  but to yourself,,,,,others will not see what you see in them. We are not talking academically    but on a personal level…..It may be that you are childhood friends or you have just known them for just a short while..but these  people just stand out among the crowd!   Treasure their friendship,,,,Remember once you lose them…..you will regret……what is lost may never be regained….

Love at first sight….is there anything  like that?…At first  sight, there may  be a strong  desire  to be with that person…but that is only physical!  There has to be more for a lasting  relationship..Think of a little seed that is planted….It begins to grow and gets stronger  every day…like  the relationship  . After a while, that little seed becomes very strong like  the indomitable  oak tree that can withstand anything……all the iniquities  of life….Love has blossomed. .now u can enjoy happiness  or face hardship  together  because  Two has become  One!!

What is there  to do when the same advice is given several times to the same person who does not heed anything  and keeps doing  the same thing over and over and not getting  anywhere  but in a deep hole which keeps getting  deeper  and deeper  by every  passing  moment??…Let him be…maybe a concerned person may see him in the hole and fill it up.  Once he is covered in darkness, he has to decide whether to stand up  ..or…sleep!!
