I think I understand now why so many artists create out of a place of sadness. Pain is one of the most powerful emotions a soul can feel, and when it holds hands with love, it is intoxicating and overwhelming to the point that such small hearts must project some of that pain into art, music or poetry, or be consumed by it. We can only relieve ourselves of a fraction of that pain though. If we got rid of all of it we would be nothing. Absent. Sometimes our pain, just like our happiness, defines us

So beautifully written
Perfection
Set up camp on the front step of each moment and always say ‘yes’ to the present moment.
I’ve met and crossed paths with many inspirational people, i have also stayed friends with few of my high school friends, all these people will forever be my long-life friends. As we age and mature, I’ve learnt to grow gracefully and gratefully alongside people you can laugh with.
Over the long weekend, we set up camp on the front step of a river bank, each moment along the rive with these people were a memorable one. Friends who bring out the best in you should be cherished, nothing in this world is more perfect than surrounding yourself with people you are able to be yourself with and together love to watch the world go by. Being unconscious of the terrible situations that are happening around us and the world. The horrible human acts are closed off from exposure and for a short time, the escape into the wilderness escorted by good people is indispensable.
Moral of this story; take a walk away from the busy life into the nurturing space of mother natures arms. Enjoy the disagreements, laughter, tears, stories and connections that come when you share a long history with the close friends. Be grateful for all that was, all that is, and all that is to come.
Listen to me, your body is not a temple. Temples can be destroyed and desecrated. Your body is a forest—thick canopies of maple trees and sweet scented wildflowers sprouting in the under wood. You will grow back, over and over, no matter how badly you are devastated.

You are not a temple. You are a forest

Open your mind. You will be amazed at what you learn. Listen to your heart. You will be amazed at what you already know. 🌻🌾🌳🍃🌞
The Rock Bar is locate at Asanya Resort, Although we didn’t stay at this resort we still wanted to see the one and only Rock Bar. A $15.00 taxi ride from our hotel got us to the Rock Bar, the line was ridiculously long and fortunately the weather wasn’t on our side. We ended up getting one cocktail (price ranges from $13-$20) and than got forced to leave as there was no under cover area for us to stay dry and sheltered.
The other day, someone broke into my car by smashing my window. This made me furious because all my identity was gone, the thought of someone else knowing my details gave me a nightmare. Not only that but now I am left with the responsibility to get the window repaired. I was full of rage and felt like the world was against me. I wanted to do bad things and prayed that the thief had something terribly absurd happen to him/her/them. I hated the person who did this and I don’t even know the person.
After so much anger , I realised this behaviour was something I was against. I acted like Emily Thorne from Revenge. The anger was eating up my peace. I took out my anger to the people who are closet to me. I felt so angry at everything. I cried because I was annoyed. Within a week, this behaviour needed to stop. I reflected and knew I had to accept what had happen, and move on. I realised I was being a sook. Why was I making a scene over something I could repair? People are suffering from illnesses, dying of hunger, fighting to stay alive, and I’m over here crying over a stolen wallet.
Bad things will happen but we cannot let these bad things take away our happiness. Some people are raised up with no love, all they see around them are hate and how to survive on a daily basis. I need to not cry over a materialistic item and focus on the real humanity issue.
