Destination; peace

"What do you want to be in life?" My friend asked me through his thick spectacles that settled comfortably on his shiny nose!

I thought about it for a few seconds and I just said it out before I could say anything else. Before I could convince myself that there was truly anything else I desired!
"I want to be happy!" I replied with a satisfied smile.

"You're wise beyond your years!" He replied and took a sip of his beer.

I got lost in thought as he prepared to lecture me about what I already figured out about life!
He actually spoke the same words I thought.
We'd become like intertwined souls!

After weeks of talking deeply about life with someone you almost become like soul mates; twin flames!
Being able to finish each others sentences yet nothing romantic prevails between us!

Success and money or material wealth means nothing without happiness!
That is why millionaires and celebrities will kill themselves day in and out regardless of how much money they have!

And you can never truly be happy if your mind is not at ease!
Peace of mind is true bliss!

Imagine having not to worry about where your next money will come from or where your loved one has been or whether things will ever fall into place!

Imagine being absolutely free of destructive thought!
Imagine just being present in the moment, enjoying life as it is; by the second, by the minute and by the hour!

The sunset glistened in the reflection of my wine glass!
For the first time in a while I watched the sun set behind the horizon!
It was beautiful and surreal. I was at peace in that moment.

Totally focused on nature's beauty as it showed off what effortlessness and glory looked like!

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!

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...
