Soliloquy

TORRID LOVE
Torrid love

Blinded by the lasting darkness
Surrounded by the dual nature of emotions
While chained to the fortress of lies
Gently pushing through the never ending storm
Yet limited in perspective…
The sordid thoughts of a new beginning
Flooded with images of your burned past
Failing presence
Heart wrenching silence
The lost souls of torrid love

THEMES OF LIFE
For the time being your life is centered on this theme

Counterproductive … no counterintuitive…
Fabricated … ultimately turned into self
Classily reclined
Finely finished
Tragedies that behooved you
For the time being your life is centered on this theme
Lost in those experiences
Blinded by those flashing lights
Transient movements
A permanent stay
Glasses broken…
Shattered to reflect parts of the hidden theme
For the time being your life is centered on this them
Confusion amassed with peace
Slightly falling
The inability to expect
Broken promises
Fleeted dreams
For the time being our lives are centered on this theme

Why You're Not Married

I haven't blogged in quite awhile...due to major major transitions in my life.. but that would be another story/blog for another day lol... This article was sent to me by my partner and CEO of "Men of Distinction" our multicultural matchmaking business... (once again another story for a different blog) .. The article is a definite must read.. I can relate to many of the theories proposed in this article of why moi and many other women are not married... I do disagree with some of the writer's points... but for the most part.. she speaks Truth...And of course, If you are one of those women who know or have decided that you never ever want to get married.. then.. I guess this article doesn't apply to you.. however..read it anyway.. you might be enlightened...:)

ENJOY and lemme know what you think...

Thoughts.....

Some people do not understand the concept of just living..the inanity of not being bound by someone else's concept of life.... BUT as a friend once told me… my words… movements…. thoughts… this very sentence I write are inherently norms… rules.. unconscious restrictions… and well… whether I like it or not.. I AM bound by someone else's concept of life… society has annexed MY “supposed free will… my free flowing ideas and made it a norm… or classified it as unusual absurdity…*shrug* whatever the category… my thoughts are not really my own… and I’m a product of this world..or society.. as everyone else is.... SHIT to that… I’ll keep trying to come up with MY concept/way OF LIVING… my “self utopia” … what's the harm in trying:) 

Anywho...I have to share this amazing music…Animal by Mikke Snow... kinda goes with my random thoughts lol… the intro is phenomenal

More Flavour....

yes yes... I know ..I can't, for some reason, get enough of this guy... Here are my top Flavour songs that are currently on 'constant replay' on my ipod... netbook... phone..lol... disregard the words to the songs... you probably won't understand it.. just listen to how he sings in the Igbo language...

Flavour- Orobo (listen to the igbo when it gets to 2:17 of the song... amazingness..)

Flavour- Adamma

Flavour- Ashawo (this song is particularly degrading.. but erm again..the way he sings it in Igbo .. sigh)

I Heart Flavour N'abania... my addiction to songs in the Igbo language started with Osondi Owendi..... .I remember playing this song out and my sister banning it from ever being played in our apartment again.. lol.. :)

If you are depressed you are living in 
the past.
If you are anxious you are living in 
the future.
If you are at peace you are living in 
the present.

MISTAKE (had to repost this:)

What a day today was as she grappled with the feelings that tied knots in the pit of her stomach
Wondering whether it was possible to surpass this present feeling of despair…
So damned she felt… soo frail and open to the wrath of the world
She focused calmly on how it happened.. and how it all began..
Puzzled as to why she ever decided to dance with control and sleep with freedom
She sighed at her lapse in judgment
The longing she felt within that made her leave behind any sense of reason and embrace naivety
Perhaps it was the slight nudge towards a fastidious result that unconsciously took over her awareness
Or maybe the ingenious idioms of her opponent as he made the solution to her problems look like fried plantain served with omelet…
Whatever the case…she was reeled in without fences….drawn in without barriers
And eventually … she was spat out with such venom that she contemplated biting back the snake that had just bitten her! Lol

READ "LITTLE BEE"


There is a shocking blindness about the treacherous reality of our world until it is unveiled through the stories of victims dealt a harsher hand than we could ever possibly imagine… their stories inform you of every aspect of our world… and shows you how partial and very limited your world really is…. It tells you how entrenched and self absorbed we are in our lives that we forget about the lives of the less fortunate… their world… and their painful experience…  sooo to bring a sense of their reality… their experiences into your world READ… “Little Bee” by Chris Cleave... your world will never be the same... trust me!
