Love vs. Desire

Image
As individuals, we all have our own perception of what love is. At times, we also try to justify what love should mean to another person, but that's a completely different topic for another day. Today, I would like to speak on how our perception of love and desire for another person(s) play key roles in our daily decisions. I strongly believe that humans are naturally possessive beings similar to many other animals. However, how can we as intellectual beings identify the difference between desire and love? Is love desire or desire love? Can one be without the other? Osho's comment simply reveals the realities of typical human behavior. When we see something attractive (whether human or not) we desire to possess it even when we do truly appreciate it. But why do we as humans always want to possess and appreciate? If we pick the flower that we appreciate for its immense beauty, but then it dies, do we still truly appreciate that flower? When we dispose of the dead flower, do...

Denial, Demons, Darkness and the Light

Image
There's a dark side to everyone of us. Even the greatest of all men and women have a side to them that is immoral, evil, dishonest or anything of the like. We are all the same, we are all human, and we all have a dark shadow lurking within us against our light. It can subconsciously impact our lives or we can consciously allow our darkness to reign. Many of us try and keep ourselves a secret from the world because in reality we don't want others to know the spirits that live within us. We all want to be accepted. However, what I have found recently is that shining light on the darkness within ourselves may be the action we need to truly understand ourselves... to truly undress our soul... It may be what we need to see why we struggle... It may be what we need to embark on a new journey of self-awareness... It may be what we need to redefine our morality, and to truly experience the happiness dwelling within us. First, let's talk about our past and how it may be the re...

A World Full of Boxes

Image
Today... Let's be honest with ourselves. How many boxes do you have? No really... Tell me. If you're anything like the average human being you probably have this many multiplied by ten one hundred and one times. Don't be ashamed, because as I dive deeper into myself, I realize that I own a pile of boxes as well. Now you may ask, where am I going with this? Here's one simple answer. Each box holds a different assumption about the world and everything in it. Each box is specialized, coated with an emotion either good or bad. Each box is stored within your heart, mind, and soul. Each box may not be fully understood. Each box may be the reason why your life may not seem favorable. Let's dive into ourselves at this moment to understand why these boxes exist. What is an assumption and how do they form? The human brain remains as a mass phenomena that scientists and spiritualist continue to explore in the aspirations of full understanding. Now, as we see fit or co...

Leisure is Far from Pain

Taking leisure on a surface as high as one's sky I ask How far does it last? Patiently waiting for A sign, a path While enduring a heartbreaking past. So I unbend on a high enough surface To lose some oxygen  And fly to a mind ridden circus. I simply fall Deeper into my passions I simply fall Farther from my lessons Sit. Wait. But don't wait. Sit. Wait. But don't wait. Taking leisure on a surface quite high I scream out as you past my eyes I try catching you but... But you'd rather fall. How strange to unwind  on a mountain so high. How strange to fall  to the ground so low. But wait. No don't wait. But wait. Just wait. How about I fly away instead.

Short Story: Maukita

If I was to write a child story, I would start off with a classic beginning like "Once upon a time..." But the difference between this story and child a story is that it is and isn't fiction. It's reality based off personal experiences and perhaps imagination. More or less, my imagination stems from my subconscious, my dreams, my observations, my deeper thoughts. I'm assuming that most people can relate. Life is quite informal isn't it. It's simple yet we make it difficult. I'm assuming it's because we are programed to make life difficult, to think, to be, to question, and to understand. Makes sense. Well today, I'm not necessarily here to question the purpose of life as me. More as another me, or another person in which I have reincarnated. Maukita...                  Every morning, day, and night something felt lost. Something was always missing until Maukita got older. But even still something was missing. To wake up in a world so...

Show Me Who You Are

Image
Show me who you are As I show you who I am. Show me your curiosity, As I show you mine. Show me how you breathe, As I breathe down your spine. Show me how you live, how you love, how you simply just be, As I show you me. Show me who you are As I show you who I am. -Romance

The Art of Losing Someone

Image
Falling in love is simple yet complicated. For me, it happened unintentionally... I fell into it and loved it. But sometimes relationships don't always pan out the way we wanted them to. We fight, we argue, we love, make love, fear, dance, embrace, shy away, and even fall apart. Now, it is the falling apart that I will speak on today... There is an art to losing someones, someone you loved and still love deeply. By no means is it easy, but it is an art, a process, a logical, spiritual and emotional journey. You'll embrace many different emotions, ranging from love, sadness, anger, self loathing, happiness then sadness again. It does take time to "get over" that person, however, what I realized for myself is when you shared a deep bond with that person, the ending is even harder. First off, admit and forgive . Not just the other person, but yourself. Be honest with yourself, remind yourself that you were a piece in the unsuccessful relationship and come to term...

Unfathomable Energy

Right now, I hear my heart beating. I can feel the energy flowing with and within my body. I can feel all of the clutter in my mind. I can see only what is in front in me; and I think of everything that is wrong with me. I think of everything that is right with me. I hear only what is around me & yet I still only think of everything that is clouding me... my mind... my soul... my spirit... my heart. If there is anything that I want the world to know right now on this very night, at this very second is this-- I don't want to be content, I don't want all of the fancy things, I don't need the technology and I especially don't need a society. All I want to do in this lifetime is live, and to live I want to breathe in and out the energy of the world.. the energy that made me... I pause... What I really want in life (if I am meant to want at all, I don't know...) is to live a life at peace, in peace, surrounded by the energy that has made me. Sucked into the real...

Random Thoughts... Sometimes I Have to Share Them

Image
I don't write poetry for your social advancement, nor do I buy clothes to supply wealth to the economy. I live in my own bubble full of my own beauties that literally can never be stolen from me. I'm a book in the making.. don't know why I don't write more often. Such a solid stress reliever. Especially when my freshly washed clothes smell like food since I folded and left them in the kitchen while my mother cooked gumbo. See the thing was that I was going back to school... so no need to transport them other places and waste energy, yet I didn't realize what was happening. So I sit in my dorm room, smelling my shirt that smells like detergent and gumbo. Oh, how fun this night will be... I don't know why I don't write more. There was one time I was really stoned and decided to write whatever came to me. Let's just say that that specific essay was... (for lack of a better word) outrageous. Nothing better than a raw mind allowed nothing more than the t...
