Hold On




Can’t let go of what you never had... the only thing you have to hold on to in this life is yourself. Love yourself and you will always have love.

In Buddhism... to love isn’t about owning someone or making them yours. Love is accepting that someone will choose to walk alongside you because they share goals and they accept you as you are, flaws included. 

Making your life and living space beautiful is an extension of that love. You can have an exquisite dreamhouse but if you don’t love living in it, why would anyone else? Think of yourself, your vessel as a Dreamhouse and pour all the amazing love, energy, devotion and attention into taking care of it and building it up. When you find you love it, you’ll realize that you won’t allow others to harm it, including yourself. And you’ll want to share it with someone who values & cares for it as much as you do.

Kisses, m.

I Will...




I will tell you to
Get up in the morning
And face the world.

I will tell you to be strong
And fight, keep going.

I will tell you everything
Will be okay.

I will push you, inspire
You, motivate you, and
Encourage you to be more.

I will not stop.
I will continue.

You are so much more.
You can be anything,
All you have to do is believe. 

But it is a shame,
How we know what is good
For others,
But don't know what's good
For ourselves.

Listen to yourself,
And listen often.
Doing so will be
the kind of thing that will
Save you.

Save you from killing yourself
Or killing someone.

Listen to yourself.
You know yourself better.
Don't let the voice inside
of you get away.

The Music 83


You've gotta swim
Swim for your life
Swim for the music
That saves you
When you're not so sure you'll survive
You gotta swim

Flow

“…As the great Confucius said, “The one who would be in constant happiness must frequently change.” Flow. But we keep looking back, don’t we? We cling to things in the past and cling to things in the present...Do you want to enjoy a symphony? Don’t hold on to a few bars of the music. Don’t hold on to a couple of notes. Let them pass, let them flow. The whole enjoyment of a symphony lies in your readiness to allow the notes to pass...”


~ Anthony De Mello

Eternal

The word 'romance,' according to the dictionary, means excitement, adventure, and something extremely real. Romance should last a lifetime.

~ Billy Graham




Romance is easy, letting it happen is the challenge. True Romance is alive if you let it be. A real & true love has no ending. No bad ending or happy ending. True Love endures... Even when it is away from your life. It is eternal.

Everything

Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth.

Beauty

The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries or the way she combs her hair.

Mad to live


“The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "Awww!”

-Jack Kerouac



Would you let a mad scientist operate on you?

Reflections



“life is truly reflection of what we allow ourselves to see ”

Trudy Symeonakis Vesotsky 

You are what you see... Try to see love! Love yourself more! 

Here's an excerpt about not loving your reflection!

Enjoy!

cut you open and fix you


Are you ready? It’s time to cut you open and fix you. You seem different. Not in a good way. You don’t think or act like the others. Something is quite wrong. It’s going to be dark soon. So let’s get started.


As long as I can recall this has been my home. The dark recesses of a large room that empty out into a small cavity. My place lies amidst a line of others that can be mistaken for me. Identical to me in every way, down to the scar beneath my right eye and flat thumb on my left hand. Time eludes me so I can not determine any length to my existence. I have no infancy, no childhood. Unlike in the pictures the master keeps by his chair in the study, I am not born. My brothers that line the halls of this place are not either. We have been created. Fashioned from the master and duplicated. I’ve often heard him say we are his masterpiece. The highest form of experimentation he’s ever successfully attempted. A mad man’s army. How can I say that? He’s been quite right. I do not think or aspire to be like the others. My manufacturing seems flawed. I attempt to sympathize with humanity. It is my utmost desire to share their compassion. Several procedures have revealed the cruel nature of the man I call creator. Scientific experiments are not limited to his mindless automatons with their mechanical workings. On occasion there are living breathing humans used in his testing. Suffering and death are quite common. Body parts are removed and reattached in the attempt to construct a human/automaton hybrid. Barbaric tools reach into openings revealing soft insides and pliable tissues. Clamps and braces hold open skin for the living to view the death of the body. Slow and consuming are these procedures. Absolutely necessary is what he answers to my many questions. Questions that I’m reminded seem vexing and without merit. Repeatedly the scoldings insist that I should not question the master’s actions. It is my place to accommodate and support in any research relevant to the cause.


Can it be so simple that he can cut me open and repair the broken piece? Like a faulty toaster oven. A mere fuse will correct the issue. An issue that I do not see as a flaw. Lying on the gurney as the master saws into my torso and head, I contemplate this difficulty. Will I even notice the change? According to the mad scientist I will never notice the change or question the matter with a second thought. The theories of cool calculated logic swim in my head as the nutty professor tinkers around with my insides. Bolts and nuts lift with ease and coils nestle deep beneath springs eject out. There appears to be a slowing of my mind, but there is no real amendment to my thinking. Only now there is a sense of freedom that did not exist before. An impulse sets itself into my thoughts and I desire to act. Quickly Master closes up the holes in my body and head. With a spin and nod he stops short. Something inhibits him. Fingers grip the base of the neck. Crushing. Lifting. Cracking into the thin layer of fleshy tissue beneath the chin. Bones snap with an unexpected quickness and his head breaks free of the body. Without realization I release the body. Collapsing on the floor the frail shell of life seems quite useless. He was quite right. I am not the same as before. Unlike me, he can not be repaired once opened. Such a shame it is my desire to return the favor.

Lighten

Anyone can wear a mask but it takes the real Bruce Wayne not someone playing Batman to kiss Wonder Woman...


I thought you were going to lighten up, Bruce. 
- Wonder Woman

Rejoice

Love & Live without regrets!



I regret nothing in my life. I enjoy. I experience. I appreciate. I give. I show kindness. I don't hold grudges. I apologize. I forgive. I love. Get your facts straight. You judge me. I don't judge you. You haven't bothered to know me because you don't bother to know yourself. Love yourself more.

Rejoice and regret nothing!
Enjoy!
Kisses, m.

Let in Love


“Love is like breathing you have to let it in to give it out.


Learn to be happy with just yourself and you will never be alone.


If you always prevent yourself from getting hurt you will never know how to deal with pain.


What good is armor if you never take it off?


Everyone is someone’s ex.”
