Happy NeW Perspective

First of all HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE , hope this year is a start of an amazing year ahead , with new doors of happiness being opened in your face .


So let’s start this New Year with a new vision towards life, let’s look at the world in a different way, from a more optimistic perspective.  
Why not start by changing one thing about someone’s life, every single day of yours. I’m not saying that you should be the cause of a drastic change in someone’s life, but just a lil gesture that would make a lil difference in their day, and draw a smile on their face.
You may ask lil gestures!! like what, well that’s simple, you could start by smiling in people’s faces. Why walk around with a frown and a hate the world attitude, if you could smile and love the world. Even if you’re having the worst day ever, you should try to smile and try find a good thing about life to look at.

Try to be a person who’s there for other people when they need you, remember how many times you were in a situation where you just wished to have someone there with you. How many times you need just to feel a lil bit of care from anyone to prove that good still exists.
So why not be that person for someone, and become the thread that someone could hold on to.


So today make a deal, not with me nor with anyone, make a deal with yourself, cuz You are the person who deserves it the most. Cuz a promise and a deal with yourself is a deal that would never be broken, you can break your word to others, but can you break Your word to Yourself!!!, I don’t think so.
So here is the deal, Promise yourself to be the reason for your smile, if you couldn’t find someone to be that reason for you. Love who you are cuz no-one in the world will love you like you do.
Your future is your choice, you choose which path you wanna take and that’s the future you’re going to see. Stop depending on people and depend on yourself.

Start this year by taking back your life in your hand

No Signal


I look at the world we live in today, and I wonder how did we get to this. We have a thousand social sites to keep us connected, but somehow the connection is lost.  They were made to keep us in tune with each other, but they became the reason of the connection lost.
We live now behind the screens but our own signal is lost, we forgot the meaning of human connection. Now you’re best friends are a laptop, a BlackBerry, and for sure the Wi-Fi.
It’s like we no longer have connection with the outside world, you even forget how to talk and have a proper conversation with someone face-to-face. Turning to a poker face with no emotion, your voice tone means nothing.

You still wonder where did the emotions go, well I’ll tell you dear, they simply disappeared behind the tech screens. Your emotions turned into meaningless lil- emoticones that you don’t do, you just choose a face and click send, but it’s not the emotion that your face truly shows
So get up and forget the tech and remember your human self, get out and leave your cell home. There is a whole life out there beyond that screen. 



Btw I never meant that tech is bad, or that it’s the real reason behind the lost emotion, but what I mean is people shouldn’t live through their screens. They should go out and see the streets, stop caving in behind someone they’re not.
I’ve known a lot of people with amazing personalities that are too scared to face the real world, but they’re like stars behind a key bored and a screen. They should learn how to face the world and not be scared to be themselves. It’s okay to be shy – blushing from nothing – but what’s not okay is hiding behind a screen, so that people won’t see who you are.

So would you try this for a day, switch off your cell – whether it’s a BlackBerry , iPhone ,  mobile – shut down your laptop , and just go out and meet some people you haven’t been in touch with for a while , or meet a group of friends , go watch a live play or a book reading . If you like sports set a game with some friends, or take a jog around your block, get that bike out of storage and take it for a ride.

Live Your Life Out Side The Box, And See What’s Beyond That Screen

Breaking through



Have ever felt like you’re stuck between the walls of your mind, that you’re a prisoner of yourself. You’ve built walls around you thinking they will keep you safe, but those walls were built from bricks of memories. So every time you look around you’re hurt cuz they remind you where you’ve been, and who you lost.
You’re just hurting yourself with pain of yesterday, you think that’s your safe, but you’re wrong, cuz your breaking you own heart, drowning in tears of the past.
Tonight is the time to break through those walls , it’s time for you to spread your wings and fly , see the world of colors , and get out of this dark , cold prison your stuck in. it’s not too late to switch on the lights again , and take your life back in your hands again .
Today  will be the day you come back to life again, I never said it would be easy, nor that life is easy and “a pinky pink “place to live in. but you gotta use the colors of your soul and paint your world , draw a smile on your lips , learn how to laugh . Live for yourself and not anyone else, cuz you’re the writer, director and main character. So it’s in your hand to write a drama, a comedy, or even a sweet fairytale.  

People keep on forgetting that the road of life is theirs to paint, not for someone else to paint it for you. They put others as the center of the story and when they fade their story fails. I don’t mean that you gotta walk alone , it’s just that people who walk with you , should know they’re visitors in your life . That they are there to admire your painting not to judge you on it.

Break through the shell of darkness and face the world; be fearless, cuz if you had the strength to stay all these years locked up alone, then you have the strength to walk to the top of this world on your own.

Trust



have you ever wondered why the presence of a certain person around just gives you comfort like you’re safe now , and nothing can happen to you . Its cuz you trust them, you have faith in them, that just by them showing up, you just know deep inside that even if anything went wrong, they are there, and they can fix it.
It’s always said that the hardest thing to do in life is to trust someone with your life , but I disagree , it’s not that hard , you just to find a person who’s worth that trust , someone that you have faith in .
Mostly the person you begin to trust is someone who walked in and stayed when everyone chose to leave. Someone who had faith in you, when everyone said you’re a disappointment. Someone that got you to believe in yourself again.
                                                  

I know I’ll get asked well is the fact that they walked in and helped you out, a reason enough to have complete trust in them. The answer is simple, it “No “. This is just a key point, cuz if they stuck around when they didn’t have to, and then they would stick around when you need them too. those who you should trust have to be the ones that know you the most , and when I say know you , I mean the real you , that hidden behind the masks and scars . The you that’s rarely seen but is hiding there deep inside you.  They are the ones that know how to calm you down when you’re in stress, and can understand you without speaking. They’re the ones that feel you heart, and know that pain of your scars.

I personally believe that trust is the key to any relation, it’s not love. Simply cuz you love the people you trust, but you don’t always trust the people you love.  Cuz with trust comes faith, safety and comfort.

Find someone worth your trust , and when you do find them hold on to them , cuz they’re the wall you can lean on, the shoulders you cry on , the hand that picks you up when you’re down , arms with a warm embrace , and a chest where you can lay your head and rest .

Stereotyping

I’m seriously tired of this, all the issues that are built on the bases of nothing, all the judgment that is set on no ground.
Why do we keep judging each other on every action we do, we throw hurtful words, filled with venom, and expect the person to accept them. Who gave you the right to do such a thing, hurting another human being?

Stereotype and outcast , why do we do that , why do we put every person a category  as though we’re a group of books , and who ever doesn’t fit one of those standards is an outcast and has no place in the world .
How could you limit me to one character and say that who I am , if the truth is I’m not that , I’m a person , who has different characteristics and I switch moods . that who I’m , and I never told you  that you should be like me because that’s not how to goes around  .
We’re individuals that means that every one of us has his/her individuality, everyone is their own mixture of traits and experience and so much more. So how do you expect us to fit a certain category?

One other thing that really pisses me off about that stereotype nonsense is why some groups are considered superior to others. They are believed to be better that other and act that why , I never  quite understood that part . why are they considered better what about them makes them superior .

Last but not least are the bases of this judgment, usually a person in judged on their external appearance, regardless of the goals, feeling , and  personality of the individual . though the external looks of people , rarely shows who they truly are .
( you may find a sport jock who loves to dance , a b-boy whose great in school , a smart gurl who knows how to part )
so how could you judge a person by just one part of who they are .

A Simple Gurl

i'm just a simple gurl .... i put my hair in a ponytail .. i blush and get shy when you look at me ... i'm fragile ... thats why i stay away ... so no-one could ever hurt me ... i know the meaning of luv , but i never felt it ... i just hope that one day i would be noticed .... not as the gurl next door , nor as a good friend ... i wish you would see me as the gurl you wanna give the ring to

Damn True

Those are just some quotes i personally wrote

You keep expect me to be a super hero while I'm just human .... How Am I expected to help you , when I'm barley standing .... and just remember even if I'm your hero .... Even heroes have the rite to bleed ... sometimes i do cry , fall upon my knees 
Have you ever wondered why the acoustic version of any song is somehow deeper .... well its simply cuz its striped down to the core ... the lyrics , their voice and the stroke of the guitar's strings
It doesn't matter how many people are around, if the one you want isn't there , you feel alone , like no-one is actually there 
Don't AssUme cuz you end up Making an Ass out of "U" and "me" ... you're an ass cuz you fell for your own lie ... And I'm an ass cuz I'm the reason for the tears in your eyes
when we're kids we can't wait to talk , say whats on our mind and express what we feel ... but as we grow up we rarely use words cuz we find out they meaning nothing at all :/
A True Friend Isn't Always The One You Knew The Longest ... But Rather The One Who Knows You Best ... The One That Understands You Without You Having To Talk .... The One That Know Who You Are Deep Inside ... They See Beyond The Mask You Wear .. They See You As Yourself And Not Who You Claim To Be 
When i'm ignoring you , that means i'm not in the mood to talk to YOU , but that doesn't mean i'm not in the mood to talk at all

An apology

The fact is I apologize just to know that I did all what I could to Fix what I once did. It's not cuz I wanna feel better about myself nor is it to move on ; cuz I'll never be able to walk away guilt free after hurting a dear "SomeOne"

The reason I'm doing this is just cuz I wanna Remember that moment when I stood there in front of you and looked you in the eye and with a sincere tone told you those few words that were said by my heart

"I'm sorry, never meant to hurt you with my words"

 This not for me to feel better about what happened, but for you to know how sorry I am for once hurting you

So would you, would you just let me stand there and look you in the eye and apologize, I won't ask you to accept it cuz I know a lot of damage was done, and a long time passed, and it'll take time for us to heal and go back to where we were once, that is, If it wasn't too late to apologize

But all i want now is for you to HeaR it                               

All I want now is for you to FeeL it

I'M ReAlLY SorrY

The Invisibleism

Dear world
   Welcome to the century of "The Invisibleism ". I know this word seems funny to you right now, but if you think about it for a second you'll see how true that word is and how much it applies to you

Nowadays we're in a new century where everyone is somehow invisible we're all fading away into dust. Humanity has somehow vanished and disappeared. I try to find a person to talk to but I find none, no-one is actually here.

Till this day I still think and I'm try to figure this out , is it me am I the problem , am I the reason of this failure I see , am I the one who's fading away , fading to dust , fading from this world and getting lost.
I feel as though I got erased from the book of life, they forgot to record me as alive. I'm just lost between the lines. If I wasn't recorded among the dead nor declared alive, how in this world may I survive.

Again I think was that my fault and where was I that day when they were counting the dead and alive. I wouldn't have minded if I was recorded among the dead at least that would mean I was once alive. That one day I walked around and I was noticed, that I had an affect on someone, someday, somewhere. That "I", "Me","Moi" Made a difference in life.

I need to know when did I turn invisible when was the day I fell out of the records , maybe if I knew when ,I'd know why , why am I an invisible soul , who can't be seen nor see people no more . When did I fall in this black hole?

In the end I still don't know what's wrong and why is everyone invisible. Is it that somewhere along this life we all forgot that we're alive, and felt as though we made no difference in life OR is it just "Me" who died and is still trying to realize that I'm no longer alive?

Turning to the silent mode

Have you gone through a situation, where words just lose their meaning, you say the words but it’s like you didn’t even speak. Like words have turned into meaningless letters put together.
That’s when I choose to go into one of my silent modes , when my words fail me , I let my eyes speak . Cuz if you know me, you’ll see it in my eyes. And if you don’t then you’re not meant to understand.

But you know something; even if words still hold their meaning sometimes they’re not understood. Simply cuz people forgot the basic point in using their voice to speak. They forget that the tone says everything. Yet they choose to stick to a tone and let if define them, and usually they use an emotionless steady tone. and they blame me for getting lost and bored while they speak , is it my fault that I can’t feel the words you speak , that I feel no emotion even when you say “ I Love You “ .

I’m the type of person who feels their words, cuz I personally believe that every word has its own taste, texture, and scent. You may disagree, and say that they’re just letters that say just what they mean. But if that was the case then what the meaning of reading between the lines, and how would words have double meanings.

The truth is that words hold no meaning without the passion and emotion of whom, who says them, cuz every word holds the emotion of the - writer, speaker – and every letter they say, just hold it’s a part of them with it.
