Amidst the chaos

Amidst the chaos, find your peace - that's easier said than done. Sometimes, it isn't about how much we know or do not know, it's merely the simple truth that we are not there yet. Our time (of understanding, accepting) hasn't come. A little weird habit of mine which I only so often do these …

Embrace Me

Eyes closed, take a deep breath and let it all sinks in for a moment.Be still and feel what it is like to be myself. There is nothing to fix, nothing to change. Nowhere to go, no one else to be. I am just here, now, living the moment. Just me, breathing, being, with presence, …

Let Me Be

Time & time again I just want to write Get those thoughts out of mind Out of sight Just write to move on To forget Yet here I go round & round in circles Chasing my own shadow Lost in the dark Wonder in fear Never ending No escape & no return Round & round …

Everyone is a lesson

There's always a lesson to learn. No need to hate or be bitter. Instead, be grateful, be humble. Be better, we benefit from our growth. Others are responsible for their own. Many people come & goEveryone is a lesson. Day 32

Story 12

(This was a monologue / dialogue prompt) Ass U me (Drabbles) “No. What is wrong with you? You just assumed I’m a nice guy and dating material because I what helped take something down from a shelf for you? I’d still be an asshole although I don’t think having FUN make me as ass but …

Simplicity

Being an (slight) obsessive organized freak, I've come a long way from fixing misplaced books at shops to not categorizing my (1006) songs on a drive.  Despite the stereotype of Virgo, the process of re-arranging things do give me a great sense of ease ("control"). "Things go back to where they (are supposed to) belong." Habits, believes …

Who you TRULY are

People show you what they want you to see but if you observe and listen with your heart, you might just see and hear for who they truly are. Day 22

Move on (grow up) ≠ Give Up

A recent conversation got me into thinking, often in life we come across difficult situations where we need to make some (tough) decisions but is GIVING UP and MOVING ON the same thing? If you call it quits then it's negative but if you move on that's considered maturity but who gets to decide? Your …
