Taking a moment
To reflect
On what's been lost
And what's been replaced
He's breathed life into me
Unknown to sex and gender
And though no longer
I ask again that you trust me
Breath life into me
A new color spectrum
Mixed with your new reds
And my old blues
Creating a purple of unknown
Breathe into me your regrets
And transgressions
Creating new beginnings
And I'm not claiming
That I can fix the messes
But willing to get throat deep
Into your trenches
Battling those demons
Loving those things that you
Hate about you
Because they make you
And want you to use those things
To breathe into me
Life unknown
To sex and gender
Breathing into this world
A new color spectrum
Of your new reds
And my old blues

I thought I was done...but I'm back again!
I have not posted in a while so bare with me ya'll. So much has gone on since January. Of course I've lost, I've gained, and I've been confused as to where my life is going. At the present time I'm learning to breathe again to take in life. I'm learning everyday to live within the moment, and even though my mind races a mile a minute I am trying hard. Lessons of 2010 so far:
1. When you let go you just might find what you have been missing the entire time. Letting go is not that bad sometimes you lose what you thought was important, and sometimes life gets rearranged and priorities change. The beauty of life is change, and though it is sometimes a scary thing it is necessary for growth.
2. Learning the true colors of people. I don't view this as a negative thing better yet I view it as something beautiful because though heartache comes with it, at least you can know what you are dealing with up front.
3. Don't knock your blessings. God will allow trials so he can make the victory much sweeter.
This is a short a sweet one. Hopefully I can continue posting as I once did and share the lessons I learn daily. Like I always say I don't know everything, but you don't have to know to observe.
Much love and as always peace and reflections,
Love

When I get that feeling I want...
Recently I rekindled a friendship with an ex. We went to dinner had a drink, talked and laughed etc. Needless to say it was a great outing with an old friend of 5 years. But I noticed that everyone around me saw it as something different. As if he and I had participated in some sort of date. Now this got me thinking, can two people who once shared a romantic relationship be friends? Can they let go of those feelings in exchange for some more concrete? Or will one or both be stuck in the feelings of the past?
I think you can be friends with an ex. Matter of fact that's what we are friends. I believe that our romantic feelings have been long lost never to return. Now I do admit we have conversed about rekindling that fire, but it was more words that actions.
I never say never, but not every situation requires a secod chance.
Much love ad continue having deep thoughts and reflections.

1 + 1 does NOT! = the latest dance craze!
Good afternoon,
This is just a PSA. It's hard being a parent, and I cannot judge due to lack of children. But something has to said for your parenting skills when your child knows more about Gucci Mane and Souljah Boi Tell Em ( yes that is his entire stage name).
What ever happened to a good bedtime story? Or going to a museums? The excitement of learning something new; Something productive. It seems that kids these days are growing way to fast, and in doing so they are missing many fundamentals.
I applaud those that are continiously trying to focus their children on the greater good of knowledge, but there is still a large percentage that remains lost.
They know more about the new dance than mathematics. They know more about sex than they do writing and reading. And that is sad!
If I want to do some stupid dance I see on tv for entertainment (within reason) I can. Now you might find that hypocrtical, but let me explain. I am a student, I have a degree, I have a job, and the skills to move on. These kids do not.
Think on it. That's all I'm saying.
Much love and continue to have deep thoughts and reflections.
