Simple Pleasures # 2
Physical contact with someone you know cares about you. I can be as simple as a hug, a brushed off piece of lint, a playful nudge or laughter permeated with platonic touches on the shoulder, a kiss on the shoulder by your husband or the way your S/O stands up first so he can offer…

Cleansing
The hardest part of moving forward is getting rid of all the things in your life that are damaging. That does include people.

My Mother
Every time I see my mother we get closer. I know that seems bogus but here’s the explanation; for most of my life I lived without my mother being a door away and my father was non existent. My grandparents took over my welfare when my mother moved to the US so that she can…

Bathtub Musings
I wonder who people really are. Underneath the persona that they sell you. What drives people to create a socially likable character is definitely understandable but most people get lost in it. For some its a switch that goes on and off when select colleagues are around, for some is the level of friendship they…

Finding simple pleasures
When I wake up usually there is a feeling of “oh, this again” and its normally up to coincidence, a forced positive attitude of just the universe to get me out of the house much less out of the house in a decent mood. So I’ve become one of those people that take pleasure in…

Creativity vs Life
I’ve always been a firm believer that life isn’t always about the destination but about how you get there and what you learn along the way. With that said, I know all the things that I want to do but creating that path isn’t always easy. Not that the things I want to accomplish are…

On Relationships
When it comes down to it; you’ll never know people as well as you think. Human nature at its core is self serving so keep that in mind when you allow people into your life. Remember that you can never truly know someone; it would require a supernatural ability; to read minds and correctly predict…

Miss America – Muslim – Big Whoop
So, I didn’t know there was an unspoken agreement that all the miss america’s would be cornflower, women; pure blood american protestant. Much like the description for what our president used to be; white, over 35 and Christian. In 2010 America has become so much more than the white bread standard, so I’m surprised that…

Selfish Guys
A selfish guy is normally an apparent jerk. You can spot him immediately and you know that there’s something wrong with him for the most part but you don’t exactly know what….

Wounds of Sound
I used to be afraid, scared to death at the sound of their piercing wail, now, I sleep soundly to their seeking echoes I can not imagine my life without them. Sad that this is commonplace but at least here, I can see it, can see the corruption and it isn’t hidden under top secret…

Deep Breath
Today was harder than yesterday. Everyone is telling me that it’s going to get better, but it seems like it is only getting worse. I can’t keep recanting the story over and over again, scrutinizing the details and going it over it with a fine tooth comb doesn’t seem to help.

Getting Late…
The siren’s voice in my ear beats as slowly as my heart, firm determination in her words matches nothing inside of me. My chest rises and falls with almost no purpose. She sings to me ” It’s late and I’m feeling so tired”. Its as if she’s here with me, travailing this unpaved road leading…

Just for Today
Today was the day you broke my heart fingers on temples chest pounding stomach burning and you took your time and stood apart You prepared your nonchalance I was caught off guard frozen in the New York beastly spring rain drops encouraging me to do the same I wish you would hold me now just…
