Modern Romance

I have been giving serious consideration to romantic relationships recently. Is it really worth it, to be with someone who you become one with, only to experience their family drama, your family drama, their issues, your issues, plus the struggle with life in general? If the relationship you're in isn't one of utmost maturity and mutual support, and your partner is truly non-judgmental and honestly loves you, it is only another obstacle to deal with; one more person causing you doubt and pain. The love that we long for and hope for, the eternal bond with another soul, or your other half, just turns into contempt in this modern society. His friends get jealous of you and they tell him that he's whipped so he'll feel ashamed of wanting to be with you, then he blows you off for his "friends", then you feel betrayed and abandoned, then his friends call you psycho when you express your anger about it, then your friends call him a jerk, and then both sets of friends try to set each of you up with another person just to blow your relationship apart, and the kids suffer through the whole thing. Or other women try to get his attention and he falls for it, and when you feel betrayed he treats you like you're the one who did something wrong. Or he simply gets off on checking out women as if they weren't people but things to use for his entertainment, and you should just "deal with it cuz that's how guys are"... (Intense eye-roll). If that's how guys are I don't want one; I don't have a ferret because they can't control their odor glands, that's how they are. Funny how the ones who insist on male superiority are also the ones who insist that they can't help their inferior behavior. Females who are like that are the same way. Monkeys and more monkeys; monkeys can't handle relationships, they can't even be courteous to strangers for five seconds in a store, they don't respect each other, and they don't understand the sanctity of fidelity. Sad, but completely true. It's nearly impossible to find a non-monkey to pair-bond with in this sleazy, contemptuous excuse for a society. I am glad to know some non-monkeys, but they are few and far between. Good night and good luck with that whole relationship thing.

Wrong again, I could be wrong again~

Who's that conscience sticking on the sole of my shoe? Cuz it sure don't feel like love~

Absorbing All The Sunshine

After you have learned to accept the warmth of the sun on your face, as you allow yourself to become one with the universe, while you invite the all into your being and follow wherever it leads, there is one more thing to remember; the ones who love you are waiting for you to take their hand and invite them to walk with you.

This is about being a part of Earth vs. using it~

Mahatma Gandhi

“Whenever you have truth it must be given with love, or the message and the messenger will be rejected”


The message below was written with love, I swear~

Love me, love me not

I don't know about men, but women feel loved when they feel wanted and accepted, when they know they will be cared for and heard, stood up for against enemies and injustice, and embraced as an important piece in someone's life.

Let Go

If you don't let go of your regrets you will not be able to see what is right in front of you. You have been seeking all of your life but you do not know that you have found what you have been seeking because you are looking backwards.
Be still.
Look down.

Structure

"We need to identify standards that are meaningful rather than those imposed by others. To discard old boundaries or limitations for new ones is a stage of self-regulation by which one identifies the principles to live by."
~"Diary of a Broken Soul": Emperor 

August Fire

Strike with your terrible beauty,
swathing great arcs in the air so close to my cheek
I can feel the cold silver of your razor gaze
piercing this lingering malaise.
Over the ladder back chair
the coats are folded into one another,
draped black on black, dark spirit lovers
languishing between the covers.
Silence waits for your murmur.


~M. Black

Difference

Know the difference between loving and owning~
love watches for reasons to admire and embrace;
ownership watches for reasons to admonish and reject.

Choices? Meanings, names~

"Grace works most effectively through precisely the kinds of choices that take the most courage but perhaps makes the least sense, because these are the choices that demand the most of your soul." ~Caroline Myss

Marianne means: "Grace" and "Star of the sea" 

Thomas means: "Twin" 

Music Lady

Great open mic at the Music Lady last night, I enjoyed singing with y'all, hope to do it again soon!

Stay, Summer, Stay~

How poor are they who have not patience! What wound did ever heal but by degrees.

Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night

We all end up back at the starting line, so why is a raven like a writing desk?

~~εїз → ♫ → ❤ → ♀→∞←♂ ← ❤ ← ♫ ← εїз~~

This is love: 

to fly toward a secret sky, 

to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. 

First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet.

Just in case we were wondering...

Personally I think she's doing it on purpose...
