Wings of beauty


When a butterfly's wings have beautiful shouting colors, everyone wants to chase it to the end of the earth, hold it ever so gently between their palms and just secretly admire its God given beauty just in time to let it go so that it can continue to shine its  light to the world.

The beauty of the butterfly is so exciting but its freedom is what makes it even more magnificent.
Sweeping gently through the mild breeze and adding to the beauty of mother nature.

Some people however, want to crush it mercilessly so its beauty remains nothing short of a temporary memory in their head!
It seems absolutely deranged, but it gives them a thrill that they managed to end the life of something beautiful.
It's like a power source; energizer; adrenaline rush!

Truthfully, beauty doesn't spare you from pain.
Sometimes it attracts more pain than just being a plain Jane.
Ask the parrot in the cage or the glorious lion at the zoo; closed behind cold metal bars for tourists to see!

Contrary, when the butterfly has dull colors. No one bothers it.
They'll perhaps miss it as it floats merrily into the sky; flapping its tiny delicate wings as it goes;
If we listen close enough it is singing a song of freedom!
What a beautiful thing to be able to hide in plain site and still be free!

Likewise, your true beauty is inside you. Just like the butterfly with the dull colors who's beauty lies in freedom and being undetected from the cruel world!

Even a beauty such as the colorful butterfly couldn't hold a candle to the dull colored butterfly.
Dare I say, if candles were lit, only one butterfly would steal through the night!

Don't compare yourself with anyone. In the end true beauty is skin deep and outside appearance means little to nothing in this world of temporary things!

My forever puppy; Tino

I felt like I experienced all heart break until I mourned  out sharp cries while holding my fur baby in my arms hoping I could still revive him.  He had just made five years old the previous week. We were happy for this wonderful life of our call fur of joy! Anyone who knows me knows I loved my forever puppy Tino to death. I literally called him the love of my life. He was. He got me out of depression and helped me heal a lot of wounds I couldn’t open up about .  There are five  stage of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. 7 pm I got a call from home that Tino was no more. I was in denial and very angry. I screamed at everyone and everyone who was home at the time. I couldn’t articulate anything. I was shattered! I just couldn’t believe it. Something must be a mistake. I fell down and broke my glasses. I screamed until my head hurt and my ribs ached.  Luckily my pastor friend had passed by earlier for some consultation and my aunt was at...

You only live once

Life can feel like your leg has been tied tightly to an anchor; and you're drowning deep down to the bottom of the ocean :- never to breathe or be seen again! Life can also feel like you're riding a magical unicorn with glistening colorful wings ; on a rainbow. While eating cotton candy clouds and wearing a crown of humming birds:- singing ever so slightly how life is but a dream! Life is a beautiful disaster that brings you bloody red roses with thorns of steel! The beauty is magnificent; bringing in so much joy but the thorns will send you to an early grave! Life presents you a brightly burning candle full of hope; but that same beacon of light will die out even before the night is out! Leaving you in darkness until the sun finally comes out; and the rays caress your melancholic cheeks. Life is not something to pass through despite all this bittersweet love-hate relationship nevertheless! Life is here for you to live it as the most powerful and intelligent bei...

Chasing Perfection!

Do you ever sense a peculiar cloud hanging over you, despite the positive momentum in your life? It's as if, no matter how many milestones you achieve, the ideal destination remains elusive.   Consider this: today, you proudly receive a Guinness World Records award for your exceptional talent, only to find tomorrow that the year is ending, and that stubborn extra belly fat persists. It's a constant balancing act between accomplishments and the unmet expectations of where you envision yourself.   Could it be self-sabotage, a deficiency in gratitude, or the incessant urge to compare yourself to others? The weight of self-imposed expectations can make it feel like you're consistently falling short in the race of life, burdened by undue pressure.   In those moments, be kind to yourself. Despite scrutinizing imperfections and fixating on minor setbacks, acknowledge the many great achievements throughout the year. Life is an intricate blend of short and long journey...
