Living Life to the Full.





In a world of epiphanies...I realize,
Growing up (with Jah) isn't so bad.
When I see Ireland, I see myself lost in its splendor.
It moves me, the ancient parts of its culture, its remnants not forgotten are treasures that make my heart skip beats just thinking of standing on such fertile ground. To sleep in a field there would be so soothing. What I like most of all is the sound of flutes native to their land.

Sometimes I imagine I am there, just north of the coastline, with my house higher up in the mountains. I imagine living quietly, with great peace. I imagine the joys of simplicity.
I want nothing more than a warm cozy cottage/cabin on the side of a mountain. I want nothing more than to hold onto the one that created my thinking ability. I dream someday I will sit on the side of mountain, completely calm, in a state of serenity.

I foresee a beautiful life. But what it will take to get there, I am unsure. I just know that half the battles are over. I am not ashamed of this new found love and joy. It is altogether one the highest privileges I have been able to partake, and I am not coming back down.

Here I stand not alone but alive. Who else I will cross paths with I do not know.
If it's you I hope you know my idiosyncrasies.
Just kidding.

O how I love to vent. It is in solitude and I do not miss one thing.

The mind is a terrible to waste, especially on terrible things.-L.K.

Excerpt from my thoughts on romantic love.

"My face in thine eye, thine in mine appears,
And true plain hearts do in the faces rest;
Where can we find two better hemispheres,
Without sharp north, without declining west?
Whatever dies, was not mix'd equally;
If our two loves be one, or, thou and I
Love so alike, that none do slacken, none can die."--John Donne, "The Good Morrow"

Could you fathom life with someone more than a lover?
A husband even? Such a bone chilling thought.
You know all of your loving capabilities,
and they are not to be wasted on anyone.
When you feel your time is coming,
Pray without letup. Be sure you are clear,
be sure you are right. Be careful of the treacherous heart.
Be wary of falling for the beauty of appearances and the vices of the flesh.
Allow council. Allow patience. Allow dignity...
