Every  December 31st , men and women alike pull out their memo pads, and write down this year’s resolution. Before I even ask what your resolution for this past year was, let me guess (C’mon, it’ll be fun)… You wanted to lose weight? No no, you wanted to quit smoking! . Don’t get me wrong; change is a good thing! But why did you need a designated annual date to finally do this? Why did you wait? If you want to better yourself as a human being, why not do it right away? I asked myself this question quite often… Until I realized the answer. As a human race, we have become dependent on our favorite day of the week: “Someday”. We have hope. Hope that things will get better. What’s so terrible about that? Well, nothing… And everything. Hope is an attitude not a strategy. (Always remember that) There are many people who waited and waited for someday and sadly, that someday never came. We always wait for it like it is promised. Someday is just a false hope that let people be...

As your 2017 goal. ·           Call your friends you haven’t talk to for quite a while. Invite them to dinner you prepared just for them. Drink that wine until the sun rises. Laugh with them until all of you sobs. ·           Paint what is in your mind. The nakedness that lives in your head that the world needs to see. The sadness that was formed during your childhood is now ready to be set free from its abyss. The world needs your art to save the aching souls of many. ·           If you have a bucket list, don’t just use it as a wall covering – cross things off. If you don’t have a bucket list, you really need one. Have dreams, and be bold about it. Nothing is too small. You are literally sitting on a rock that is floating in the middle of nowhere, and you’re still going to try and tell me that your dreams are impossible? ·   ...

It’s human nature to desire a connection with another human being other than themselves. This leads to the start of a relationship be it platonic or romantic. Once the connection is achieved, one finds life a bit easier to live since you have: a shoulder to lean on, one to share your secrets with or even the deepest of feelings. Little or no time is spent to evaluate the kind of relationship that one is getting him/herself into. Is it or will it be a symbiotic or a parasitic  relationship? We fail to ask ourselves this, and rather, we jump on the spur of the moment. Sometimes peer pressure forces us to be friends with the worst of people; the desire for an emotional connection causes us to be in relationships that are but a waste of time and so on. To avoid being in parasitic relationships where one is eaten up inside and by the time their eyes are opened to the truth of the matter, they have no more strength to carry on. First, if you are already in a relationship of whateve...

Who Controls Your Mind? Most people think and believe that their thoughts originate from them, but have you ever stopped and considered whether your thoughts, desires, likes and dislikes are really yours?.  Did it occur to you that maybe they came from the outside, from other people, and you have unconsciously accepted them as your own?. The mind is like small child, who accepts, and takes for granted, whatever it sees or hears, without judgment and without considering the consequences. If you let your mind behave in this manner, and give it complete freedom to jump from one thought to another, you lose your freedom. We are constantly flooded with thoughts, ideas and information coming through the five senses, other PEOPLE, the MEDIA. These thoughts, ideas and information penetrate the mind, whether we are aware of this process or not. 1 .Quick question are your thoughts your? REALLY. You may object, and say that the thoughts that pass through your mind are yours, but are t...
