come, stay and let's talk. it's a good day to be alive
if we are true to ourselves
even when no one watches us
perhaps then we can be more confident
against ridicule, belittlement, and challenges
hold on; for all shall be worth it.
our baton to our future
all of this is worthwhile
you may remember us some day somehow

stay focused on the now
too many words fluttering in your head
yes, it’s nice to gaze at old memories
yes, there were good warm memories
but now is the time to exist
to pay the full attention
exist here today
before the time slips away
and becomes filled with regrets.

human body is limited by its own speed
but human mind transcends its limits
an hour of waiting can pass like eons,
yet hours of problem solving feels like a second
faster we run, broader we leap
beyond the limits of the physics
we glimpse at hidden veils of new paradigm
while our body can still hold on.
let us go on then
to the path we all must take.

no matter what the critics say
no matter how much others will laugh
at all the flaws, the naïveté, and failures,
keep your head held high and sail through
it’s a rough water all around,
but the blue sky is there above the storm
keep sailing, and one day
you might find a comfort
under the sunshine.

who knows what the future brings
dices are thrown in the air
now is the time for running
running until the moment the dice hits the ground
when it hits, the judgement follows
either pay the price or reap the reward
when all is said and done,
what works the best are done from a best calculation

ending each night drained of all energy
waking up, jumping into the fray, and repeat
occasionally I wonder the meaning of all this
yet the more I think, the more I am lost
moving to the beat of my heart I go
further I walk, deeper my understanding
providence is the virtue,
but with risk-taking, we witness value
it may appear dark at the end,
but who knows, there’s something there
1.27.2023
let us dare to make our dream
against the odds
against the “common wisdom”
against our doubts and fears.
let us stare at it
take the first step
and build it one by one.
let us dare to make our dream.
1.26.2023
no words of excuse needed;
it’s a way of the living.
regrets arrive at unfortunate times
fears arise even when there’s no need
judgement will arrive when it choses to.
truths hurts, but it’s the way to go
may the blessings be remembered
to accompany the long journey ahead
1.25.2023
may there be light.
when darkness blind us,
may our cherished memories
clear our eyes and lift our spirits
may the warmth of our heart
reverberate throughout our body
let us now our heads at dusk
and prepare to light up for our posterity.

have you realized
your heart is beating?
as if it is another creature saying,
“I am alive!”
it is beating
even the moment
you ponder on this
and surprise, surprise:
that heart is you.
you are the heart
incessantly beaming at the world
even if you are tired, sad, or depressed
remember this.
the heart is you.
