MAY 14th

My love

My heart
My soul
I come to thee all of me…

It all begin but four summers ago
A simple hello
Cupid set two hearts aglow

a sweetest smile
Instantly... I know
Sweetness.... Anrè is thy name
In thy heart never should thee doubt
Thy is the one and only.. I never want to be without

Before thee
I live yet am not alive
A life void of emotion
Plodding through the motion of mundane daily living
Numb and void of any true feelings
Nothing makes sense around me
Life was empty
Before thee

Oh merry month of May
Just around the corner yet seems so far away
Be still oh heart of mine
For the month of May thy shall be mine

We both.. doth desire from the start
Each promising the other a lifetime... never apart
Two broken heart brought together, previous pain... present laughter


Bless the heavens ‘tis divine interventions
Be gone! away, away with thee oh lonely nights
Desire met…a dream come through
‘Tis true… ‘tis true
A journey ending in lovers meeting
Love... thy doth truest is... many a splendid thing

WILD THANG

Okay call me a party-pooper. A stick in the mud but don’t people learn from mistakes! Only a couple of month ago in Stamford, Connecticut a woman was brutally attacked by a chimp and last reported the woman though stable is still in a critical condition.

While I applaud those who relentlessly worked tirelessly on animal rescue efforts, sure rescue the poor animals yes but leave them be as they are supposed to be! What is my point here? My point is don’t people learn that no matter how tamed, domesticated a wild animal is IT IS STILL A WILD animal! I’m no expert but it does not take a rocket scientist to tell you that even animals have mood swings. Yes like you and me they too have good and bad days! God forbid if this poor lion got on the wrong side of the bed one day the turn of events could go so wrong! A lion do not have to make a moral decision if it should attack it just attacked!

If the animal could talk I wonder what they would say? Remember the film, Planet of the Ape? THAT…… Is exactly I’ll bet what would happen if animals could talk and turn the table on us human. Hmmmm….

Wild animals are unpredictable, why can’t some people understand that!

BETTER LATE THAN NEVER

A good book is a good book it’s as simple as that! I try to catch up with some reading as often as I can. But I must confess after the birth of the internet my reading habits has somewhat took a beating. But still, when push comes to shove, forced to choose between good book and a nights out clubbing with rowdy friends I’d gladly pass the latter especially if I am on a roll in the reading department when the book is one of those you just simply can’t put down until you are done.

The book I’m taking about this time is no juicy mystery murder. No, it’s not about love gone wrong either. No deceits, no one got betrayed. No, sex, lies, scandals no video tapes! No body got killed and above all no creature great or small got harmed in the process of making the book…. errr...I think! Still, that’s my point. A good book is a good book regardless the topic. What’s the book yours truly is talking about then. It is simply an idiot book!

No… silly... I am referring to the book title! You know one of those many Idiots’ Guide books and I must confess… I love Idiot’s guide book, I kindda dig them. I find Idiot’s guide book cool, there I said it out loud... so sue me, bite my head off already if you must! This one is titled... The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Getting out of Debt.

No one got harmed true, except my ego and I still got a little ding on my self-esteem. But, that’s good. I mean a ding every now and then to one’s self-esteem is a good thing after all me think, "a life not examined, is a life not worth living" It is true you know, not all debts are bad debts and no… it is not an attempt to make myself feel better here but seriously… if you got the time check out the book ...

I’m not going to talk at length what you can find and learn from the book because you will have to do it all on your own! All I will say is this, the mind is like a parachute if you refused to open it you will crash and plunge ever so quickly and will only find that it’s too late for any attempt of rescue to safe you from falling to a possible certain disastrous end. Times are bad, the recession is going to be around longer than expected. More and more people are getting laid off from their jobs. These are difficult time and people are feeling it all over the world. Moral are getting lower than low.Don't get me wrong, I am not cheering you on to accumulate as much debts as you can no…no…no… that’s financial suicide. If I was to quote one line from the book it would be; “If you are drowning in debts that does not make you a bad person, you just took a wrong turn”

On that note this is my two cents take; Good thing about making a wrong turn, you can reverse, recalculate, put your feet firmly on the pedal, reduce speed just for good measure than start again for the road ahead.

Easier said than done sure… but better late than never!

SIMON SAYS

Simon says. You sound horrible! Simon says. You look ridiculous! Simon says. Get Out!

Only difference is this is not just quite a simple game of Simon Says. With this particular Simon, it appears what Simon says has a lot of clout whether you like it or not. Some say he is obnoxiously rude. Others call him Mr. Nasty. Sure the man could exercise a tad bit of tact here and there. But have you notice, Mr. Nasty also automatically becomes Mr. Nice to many a contestant and this he does not once, but almost every time to people with a genuine pleasant disposition even though these people do not quite make the cut so to speak. If many a heart were broken, many a dream shattered surely you can’t point all blame to this guy yes even though the man can be brutally honest. Notice also that Simon was not nasty or rude to the girl here. No... this is not about Simon rather it’s about those who should know better.

Have you ever head of the term helicopter parents? I promise you, I am not making this up! According to psychologists, helicopter parents are those who hover over their children, worry about everything that their children does or does not do. They are often aggressive or overbearing. Helicopter parents tend to make a lot of noise in their bit to rescue their offspring whenever difficulty arises or so they think. They absolutely have no qualms about intervening on behalf of their off spring yes even if that said off spring is a 30 year old. In a nut shell, experts believe that such parents contribute to the development of psychological problems in their children. By overprotecting them and keeping them from learning how to cope with adversity. This intrusiveness in turn breeds anxiety. Because it implies to the child that he or she is fragile constantly needing continued help. You can imagine what that does to a child self esteem.

Take the case of the kid in the video for example. I wonder who is it that wants to be famous here, the parents or the child. I mean surely the parents know that the girl can’t sing if her life depends on it! No, I am not trying to be Ms. Nasty here people. The girl just can’t sing, period! Simple as that! The girl said in the video “I’ve been told by my mom and dad that I am a good singer”. The mom later in her own word said”We just literally push her and push her until we got her to sing”

It is one thing to encourage your child and be supportive. But come on already! If you can’t realize your own unfulfilled dream don’t push your goal onto your children. In the long haul, the child ends up even more disappointed because you put it into her head that she has what it takes when she clearly do not. You falsely inflate her ego, give unrealistic hope. You drum it into the child head making her believe that it is also what she wants. Yeah… yeah we all know the saying; every parent just wants what’s best for their children. Want their children to be regarded as special in the eyes of the world the way the child is special to them.

Honestly I’m inclined to give Simon the thumbs up here. The girl is not to be blame well at least not her alone. The parents should just wake up already. Moms and dads out there if you are reading this watch the video too. Do some soul searching! It’s good to encourage your child to dream just don’t push your child to dream the impossible dream! Spare your kids the humiliation!

A HOG FOR A LITTLE SAUSAGE

These days I dont watch the tele all that much. There are a couple of shows I do try not to miss like 60 minutes! Andy Rooney’s tongue in cheek reporting style but full of punch and substance makes him one of my favorite TV news journalists. I recall in this one particular show, a brief report from good old Andy makes me like the guy even more!

Ladies if you are not there yet, some day you will so you would want to read this! If you are approaching that magical number then this one’s for you! On the other hand, if you are already there then ladies ... YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY GOING TO LOVE THIS!

THIS IS PRICELESS! I just had to share it here, enjoy!

Some of you might have already watched the show but for all those fine ladies in case you missed it on 60 Minutes, here's the transcript of what good old Andy Rooney thinks about women over 40.


As I grow in age, I value women over 40 most of all. Here are just a few reasons why:

A woman over 40 will never wake you in the middle of the night and ask, 'What are you thinking?' She doesn't care what you think. If a woman over 40 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do, and it's usually more interesting.

Women over 40 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you if they think they can get away with it. Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it's like to be unappreciated. Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman over 40.

Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 40 is far sexier than her younger counterpart. Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off you are a jerk if you are acting like one. You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her. Yes, we praise women over 40 for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal.

For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed, hot woman over 40, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year old waitress. Ladies, I apologize.

For all those men who say, 'Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?', here's an update for you. Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage. Why?Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire pig just to get a little sausage!

YESSSSSSSSSS Thank you Mr. Rooney and now to all

FINE, FUN, FABULOUS, FANCY-FREE FEMALE over 40

Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass...
It's about learning to dance in the rain.
