come, stay and let's talk. it's a good day to be alive
instinctively,
my jaws tighten,
my fists clench,
my thoughts start racing.
as if to push a racing train to a halt,
I tell myself:
I am not the one to judge.
yet the screeching animosity does not stop,
rather slowly pressurize for an explosion.
if humans are not perfect,
why strive for such perfection?
I’d like to know I did the right thing
and live and love without regret.

give it a try
you won’t know what you wanted
unless you give it a try
once you open your eyes
once you break through your fear
you will start to breath
life of your dreams.

it cannot be forced,
but slowly, smoothly, and shyly,
weaved into a strong fabric
via intricate rituals and ceremonies
warmth and resilience born from such
lasts a lifetime.

how do I stop watching YouTube?
it’s an invisible string
hooking my weakest points
wrapping them into an addiction.
how do I get out of this?

perhaps this is how I work better
to feel the weight of the stakes on my skin
keeping the skin in the game
growing every day
it’s a way I chose to walk this path.

let us enjoy what is right
let us understand each other
honor each other’s work
maintain a humble attitude

who cares what others will see me as
let the truth be out in the world
and allow what may happen, happen.
I believe this is the right move.
I believe we are headed the right way.

work, my man, work.
the vacation is over.
now is the time to move.
do not be fooled
by the lovely landscape
mesmerizing your eyes now
thinly veiled behind it
is a tragedy waiting
unless you work.

embrace your faults
leverage it.
if you turn around your faults
you’ll start to see its usefulness.
embrace the good and bad:
they are all yours.
pivot, negotiate, and explain.
if all does not go well,
it’s alright.
at least you know you tried.
even if the whole world is against you,
you will know that about yourself.
keep trying.
it’s not over ‘till it’s over.

sometimes make time for giving.
it’s a world to live in together.
giving make a room for breathing.
who knows
today’s loss can be tomorrow’s gain.
stories of yesterday can bring you up.
smile. charge on.
