The more connections you and your lover make, not just between your bodies, but between your minds, your hearts, and your souls, the more you will strengthen the fabric of your relationship, and the more real moments you will experience together.(f)
Barbara De Angelis American Expert on Relationship & Love, Author |
Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in, forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day, you shall begin it well and serenely...
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson |
"No pessimist ever discovered the secret of the stars or sailed an uncharted land, or opened a new doorway for the human spirit." ~ Helen Keller

Desire
Say I chew desire and water is an explosion of sugar wings in my mouth. Say it tastes of you. Say I could drown because you left for the time it takes a blackbird to understand a pine tree. Say we enter the pine woods at dawn. We never slept and the only opium we smoked was what became of our mingled breath. Say the stars have never learned to say good-bye. (One is a jewel of blue magic in your perfect ear.) Say all of this is true and more then there are blackbirds in a heaven of blackbirds. Joy Harjo, "Desire" |
Life is a B Movie: it's stupid and it's strange, it's a directionless story, the dialogue is lame, but in the 'he said she said' sometimes there's some poetry, if you turn your back long enough and let it happen naturally.
~ Ani Difranco |
The greatest discovery of my generation
is that a human being can alter his life by altering his attitude. ~William James |
rhyming is fun!
when im sad or very very blue, i remeber the words i wrote many many many years ago.....
See my skin Taste my tears Feel my pain Live my fears How much more do I have to give? Emotional dysfunction makes it hard to live The more I give the more you take The more I push the sooner I’ll break The passion that once burned in my eyes Replaced by doubt perpetrated by lies Neuroticism only amplifies the pain The fight for your affections is all in vain The heart grows colder and empty each day The tongue is sore biting back things to say Love and cherish, don’t use and abuse Take a gamble on love what do you got to lose Your perfect ending leads to bliss My perfect ending is anything but this Your biggest dream finding normality My biggest nightmare….my own reality You don’t know me You never tried Assumed I was ok You never tried I begged for your help You never tried I asked for your love You never tried I told you I was bad off You never tried I told you I couldn’t stop You never tried Actions speak louder than words You never tried I was never your daughter You never tried I was never your sister You never tried An outcast an imposer I never tried A liar and a weirdo I never tried Always having issues I never tried Demanded to much I never tried Expected the world But I never tried Solve the problem We never tried Alone again.... Myself I rely Peace and Love.. |
Gawd I love this!
For those of us who live at the shoreline standing upon the constant edges of decision crucial and alone for those of us who cannot indulge the passing dreams of choice who love in doorways coming and going in the hours between dawns looking inward and outward at once before and after seeking a now that can breed futures like bread in our children's mouths so their dreams will not reflect the death of ours: For those of us who were imprinted with fear like a faint line in the center of our foreheads learning to be afraid with our mother's milk for by this weapon this illusion of some safety to be found the heavy-footed hoped to silence us For all of us this instant and this triumph We were never meant to survive. And when the sun rises we are afraid it might not remain when the sun sets we are afraid it might not rise in the morning when our stomachs are full we are afraid of indigestion when our stomachs are empty we are afraid we may never eat again when we are loved we are afraid love will vanish when we are alone we are afraid love will never return and when we speak we are afraid our words will not be heard nor welcomed but when we are silent we are still afraid So it is better to speak remembering we were never meant to survive. Audre Lorde ~ A LITANY FOR SURVIVAL |

"We must be steady enough in ourselves, to be open and to let the winds of life blow through us, to be our breath, our inspiration; to breathe with them, mobile and soft in the limberness of our bodies, in our agility, our ability, as it were, to dance, and yet to stand upright..." ~ Mary Caroline Richards

I love fleshy women whose buttocks rise "in my hands like freshly baked bread, arms that surge outward from my embrace, thighs that surround me like love itself. I love flesh that is firm and tender, flesh that is wild, I love flesh that is yours these afternoons when rain falls gently as flesh itself, when all that is moral dissolves like flesh, and only the sounds of flesh can be heard singing, We are still here, love, we are going on. ~Michael Blumenthal, "Flesh |
When you lay down with dogs you get up with fleas.....

"In my experience, there is only one motivation, and that is desire. No reasons or principle contain it or stand against it."
-Jane Smiley Desire moves us to action. The bigger the desire, the swifter the action. When we really want something, we get creative, and pull out all the stops. We engage our intelligence, we find the means to fulfill our desire. We become empowered. -Lissa Coffey |
Ayn Rand-Anthem- excerpts-things to ponder :deepthoughts: ~My happiness is not the means to any end. It is the end. It is its own goal. It is its own purpose.~ ~I am neither foe nor friend to my brothers, but such as each of them shall deserve of me. And to earn my love, my brothers must do more than to have been born. I do not grant my love without reason, nor to any chance passer-by who may wish to claim it. I honor men with my love. But honor is a thing to be earned.~ ~For the word "We" must never be spoken, save by one's choice and as a second thought. This word must never be placed first within man's soul, else it becomes a monster, the root of all the evils on earth, the root of man's torture by men, and of an unspeakable lie.~ ~And here, over the portals of my fort, I shall cut in the stone the word which is to be my beacon and my banner. The word which will not die, should we all perish in battle. The word which can never die on this earth, for it is the heart of it and the meaning and the glory. The sacred word: EGO ~ :ohm: |
We learn by example and by direct experience because there are real limits to the adequacy of verbal instruction.
~Malcolm Gladwell |

Every experience in life,
everything with which we have come in contact in life, is a chisel which has been cutting away at our life statue, molding, modifying, shaping it. We are part of all we have met. Everything we have seen, heard, felt, or thought has had its hand in molding us, shaping us. ~Orison Swett Marden |
