Born to Chat: Like a Child...Simplify →
borntochat:
Hypothesis: Children are simple, they find joy in everything life brings regardless of their circumstances. Therefore their ability to dream is renewed with every slumber.
Observations:
- they are not double-minded
- they accept & enjoy life…things
- they make-up their mind what they want & go…

Understand your emotions, never let them control...
Emotions have always played a big role in my upbringing whether I was told not to show them or to express myself freely, they were always there. As a boy, I did a lot of things impulsively with my heart rather than my head & tried to figure out what my emotions were trying to say & what reaction I should give or shouldn’t give in return. I’ve never believed in bottling my...

It's amazing...
It’s amazing, how from dirt new life can spring.
It’s amazing, how from a hurting heart, forgiveness and love can bring,
It’s amazing.
When I saw you today in the distance, my heart stirred,
but my mind said ‘hush’
It’s amazing how much I’d love to rekindle the fire, start anew
It’s amazing when I get that way,
I remember your actions said...

Thank you - a letter to my first love.
I had never been in a serious relationship before and I wasn’t even looking for one. This just kinda happened. As much as I’d want to give all of myself, I thought I was a ‘wham, bam’ kinda guy. I think it all stemmed from me wanting to save myself from the irrationalities and lack of level headed behavior that’s often associated with love.
But I was caught off...

Stop, slow down, cherish life, always.
It’s ridiculous how ironic life is. On Sunday, I saw a tweet that described it perfectly. The tweet read- “Life is too ironic. It takes sadness to know what happiness is, noise to appreciate silence, and absence to value presence.”
About 5 hours ago, that same tweet surfaced in my head as I wrapped my jog at the Mona bowl. I was locked inside and thought I had no way out. Then I thought...

The innnocence of Childhood
On Sunday afternoon, something eye opening happened. I was playing hide and seek from my god son so I could get to buy him ice cream. I ran outside then downstairs & I hid around the corner. Staring at me from a distance was a little boy playing with his football. He was also staring at the direction my god son would come. I said ‘shh’ and mouthed to him if anyone was coming. ...

Teyana Taylor: A different kind of superstar
by: Sean A. Bennett
If America is the land of golden opportunities then nothing validates this more than the upsurge in American teenage superstars. Within the last decade, more youngsters have been bit by the ‘star’ bug and have sought to create big names for themselves. It’s an extensive list, one that includes actors such as 16 year old Dakota Fanning, 18 year old Taylor...
