What Has Time and Wealth Got To Do With It?

  
    Time sure flies doesn't it? Were always so worried about how we're gonna spend it so we tend to pick one thing to focus ourselves on and base our life around. The pursuit of happiness, the pursuit of wealth, the pursuit of living beyond our physical bodies, the pursuit to change the world for better, for worse, or for themselves.

    What is time, but of course there's a scientific reason and explanation. There's people who swear they can freeze time in their mind, and at the very least slow it down. They say your life flashes before your eyes right before you die, that instance where your brain can't interpret what is happening so it sends all signals at once trying to solve it's own impending death. Why does some go so quickly and why do so many young die for no reason other than one religions reason or the next.

    When violence takes one and misses the other we say it's a miracle and then we focus on the hate. Why do others choose our fate when they often can't take care of themselves. The ones who live wealthy have everything done for them, what are they without their money. Some find fortune, some build fortune, and the pursuit is how we get there big and small, young and old. It's all time. What does it mean when you reach the end, your faith or lack thereof holds the answers or does it? Maybe there's infinite nothing maybe that's just the end, or maybe we live on and start all over.

    We all want to believe in something, whether we grew up one way or another, deep down there's something at our core than never changes. We are living, breathing human beings and there shouldn't be a hate towards that. There shouldn't be discrimination towards that. Finding an excuse for every problem doesn't solve that problem and if we stopped excusing ourselves from those problems the sooner we can evolve to a better state of existence because in this life we live here and now is the one and only that we know of and if we live only expecting to be rewarded at the end, what life do we live. Should we be helpful, should we be greedy, should we fight? What if we could unite, Work to develop and maintain something that we could build on, that benefited everyone. Well then we could all be wealthy in heart.

    I'm no stranger to wanting more out of life and the benefits of wealth, but the wealth of knowledge is just as valuable. Right now that's being taken out of the population, it's a commodity for the financially wealthy and it's leaving our communities and we allow it, we're so focused on handouts that we forget what we are living for. We've changed and there's those who know if and there's those of us that are lead blindly. Tell me where did the time go, where did life go, do you value your memories or do you live in pain and suffering. We could be better, we could live better, we just need to remember that time is ours and we can make dreams still real, we can still accomplish and still unite to chase those dreams and build up, lose the hate, lose the fear and reunite with our souls. Live and Let live. 

Thanks for reading!

Perception, Description, Interpretation: What's Love Got To Do With It?

   They say you can fall in love at first sight. Then there are arranged marriage and although controversial depending on who's looking at it, is more than meets the eyes. There are people out there who have real working meaningful long distance relationships. Relationships that stand the test of time. Relationships that last even when one goes off to war for long long periods of time. Life doesn't stop, they still grow, they still have families. People who work away for months, business trips, and so on.     Who says being home 24/7 is the definition of how a real relationship lasts. Communication I've always said was important. Doesn't matter where you are if you can communicate well. Everything else will click into place. You can only feel so connected to someone if your able to be yourself with that person, if you don't make that effort what's love got to do with it? That first reaction when you meet someone is it the only thing that strikes you and gives

Remembering Life

   Remembering life, the way it was, the chances that came and went, mistakes and the smallest insignificant signs you thought you were always aware of until they came and went. A shallow pit in the heart runs deeper once you discover what has been leaking through underneath. Days gone by and they always seem to end the same way. We struggle with our own immortality, some do drastic things to prove they are living, others quite simply embrace the time for what it is.    Life was never short and sweet, I grew with a lot of pain and for years I was depressed, and I am sure everyone knew but like a shattered heart I hit the ground running every day, I lived to make people laugh and smile. I wanted to mend the world, starting with those around me, sacrificing anything I had to do so. Often, I am remembered for a person I long forgot. What memories I must share only paint a picture only too familiar with who I never was. I chalk most up to being a child and typical teenager, but then again

What is Expression?

   What underlines it for each individual and what forms are acceptable by today’s standards vs. what they were 20, 40, 60+ years ago. With each generation is it easier or harder to express? Depends which view point you take.    Is there a formula for how a scenario might reflect a certain opinion, feeling or memory triggered at the time of occurrence? Could it be manipulated to remove a certain feeling or need in a given moment to change how you would react to that scenario? Depends on which view point you take.    What if you could not express physically, would others know how you felt? Words could justify, but what if you couldn’t speak? Could you feel their presence and justify their expression? I believe with any sense known or unknown our invaluable skill to communicate through endless means is nothing short of extraordinary!    Whether your reason of exclusion of ability to express, communicate or emote, the world and its occupants have many ways to connect you to
