Thy drum loops still


Often times we start from scratch and ditch it to start from scratch again. I'm not saying we should be infallible, I'm just saying we can do better.




Look, we've all been there, in a stagnation phase that seems to never end. Could be in the peaks up there, or in the lowest of valleys.

Attitude is everything, buy into some else's and you are finished, no matter who they are. Once you have done your homework and finally chosen to do something, don't let nobody sway you off of it, not even your better half, not even your sloppy self. No matter how you get there, just show up and shut up.

But you can still show up and shut up and still not enjoy it?

We had a whole life a head of us the day we came into this world. We've never been sure if we've already gone halfway through it, or almost through, we just assume it, based on some jargon life expectancy digits. 

I have your juice, and look at our days, every other 60 seconds, we never know how they go by. Every thing is so dynamic . From mere minutes to years and everything in between and we still get through that shit.

I am here to say to you, everything that comes your way comes as a learning curve


In my own philosophy this is in a couple of stages. 

At first encounter of something, whether good or bad, we are just really plainly learning. At another encounter we learn to experience it or endure through it , navigating different emotions around it and either detaching or attaching, by the next encounter we have educed and framed our own unique ways to work around it in our favour without being drained , almost effortlessly, 

and finally the juicy part..

How we choose to handle the next encounters is entirely our choice, as these may come to pass not only to us but even to things and people we care about, we won't be there everytime to come through as the heroes or heroines of the day. 

We often find it hard to have everything in control, but if we can not pass on our coping tools to others or build unique systems around our emotional, physical or spiritual circles, we may forever get into the trap of starting from scratch over and over again with bubbles of  short term gratification that blind real fulfillment.

Rosy Actually Ep.4

                    As she approached the open front door of her apartment she wondered whether they hadn't hurt her mother. Once she got in, she noticed that everything was in place except for the broken vessel in the center of the living room which indicated that there might have been a struggle as Frank's boys made the move. Yet they were so clean. Nothing else was broken or damaged. They likely captured the old woman swiftly without a single soul noticing them. She turned around to examine the door closely. It hadn't a single scratch. Whoever made it in either had a copy of the key  or found it open. But it could never have been open as far as Lucy knows her mother's cautiousness. By now, she would probably be yelling at her for returning late like she had always done since Lucy's late teens. She ran out to examine the courtyard. Whichever vehicle had done this was definitely big as its tyre tracks indicated, And it was most lik...

L'amour avant d'amour

 Juste avant que je parle  Je me sens a little bit trapped for a second in my own head Wondering whether what I am about to spit out willl feel good enough and still make good sense in your head I tend to struggle with eloquence  But why should l'éloquence be ma concérne majeur when I cant even explique these feelings that I desire to tell you of  Feelings I can't even take control of So, juste avant I go on to speak,  I will seek Shakespeare's Romeo et Juliette and the like  So to be learned enough on how to put my point across the line  To you that i wish to love To you en qui je trouve le paix    Juste avant que je ,... soupire I wonder if I can count on my own lungs long enough in case i had to sprint to save this love If I'd be able to pull off a hide and seek avec our great grand kids dans des soirs finales de ma vie  Or if I could still trust my arms with d'énergie to sweep you off the floor even when I'm about a century old Ooh...

Rosy Actually EP.2

           Lucy does not fancy flirting because she also never catches herself when she actually does. Imelda watched as her friend got drained in the intense dialogue with a guy who had once crushed on her. You could tell that he enjoyed every bit of it. Her voice, blended with how she spoke with her body, told you how much she was into the conversation. She maintained fine eye contact and occasionally lost her breath between words. When she burst into laughter, she didn't even notice that the whole room had eyes on her. The guy couldn't help but stare at her ex-crush's excitement.   Perhaps she's come to her senses...that I am the one for her, He hoped. The same minute he imagined them going on a long honeymoon. How perfect would that be? Fate must be playing her cards in his favor. He was no longer listening. He could only hear her beautiful voice in the background on her fine portrait giggling and smiling the whole time.  'Oh Brandon.' ex...
