DoN't StoP DaNciNg..... Oct 17, 2005 1:47 am Mood: sad, 996 Views I feel the darkness encompasing me again During this time i feel like i wana go back to my shell so no one can see me Give in to the abyss of loneliness Hibernate within myself But through this darkness there is an ever present flicker of light Fluttering steadily Tempting me to go to the Source Encouraging to get up and take the stride towards the light It keep bugging me Till i give in By then i will feel it pulling me out from the depth Holding me, embracing me Lulling me in tune with a melody so beautiful Its reach even my soul!!! Making me wana glide and swirl and richochet DON'T STOP DANCING At times life is wicked and I just cant see the light A silver lining sometimes isnt enough To make some wrongs seem right Whatever life brings Ive been through everything And now Im on my knees again But I know I must go on Although I hurt I must be strong Because inside I know that many feel this way Children dont stop dancing Believe you can fly Away away At times lifes unfair and you know its plain to see Hey God I know Im just a dot in this world Have you forgot about me? Whatever life brings Ive been through everything And now Im on my knees again But I know I must go on Although I hurt I must be strong Because inside I know that many feel this way Am I hiding in the shadows? Forget the pain and forget the sorrows But I know I must go on Although I hurt I must be strong Because inside I know that many feel this way Children dont stop dancing Believe you can fly Away away Am I hiding in the shadows? Are we hiding in the shadows? This one is for you, you know who you are photo: Badlands' Mystery taken by me Theodore Roosevelt National Park, South Dakota 39 Comments

Take Me To Your Heart (Music:Jacky Zhang/Words: Jascha Richter) Hiding from the rain and snow Trying to forget but I won't let go Looking at a crowded street Listening to my own heart beat So many people all around the world Tell me where do I find someone like you girl (Chorus) Take me to your heart take me to your soul Give me your hand before I'm old Show me what love is - haven't got a clue Show me that wonders can be true They say nothing lasts forever We're only here today Love is now or never Bring me far away Take me to your heart take me to your soul Give me your hand and hold me Show me what love is - be my guiding star It's easy take me to your heart Standing on a mountain high Looking at the moon through a clear blue sky I should go and see some friends But they don't really comprehend Don't need too much talking without saying anything All I need is someone who makes me wanna sing (Chorus) photo: Staring At the Same Moon taken by me Mount Rushmore Memorial, South Dakota 4 Comments

FaLLiNg In LoVe.... Oct 15, 2005 9:20 am Mood: optimistic, 884 Views From the book, LETTERS TO MY SON by Kent Nerburn It is a mystery why we fall in love. It is a mystery how it happens. It is a mystery when it comes. It is a mystery why some love grows and it is a mystery why some love fails. You can analyze this mystery and look for reasons and causes, but you will never do anymore than take the life out of the experience. Just as life itself is more than the sum of the bones and muscles and electrical impulses in the body, love is more than the sum of the interests and attractions and commonalities that two people share. And just as life is a gift that comes and goes in its own time, so too, the coming of love must be taken as an unfathomable gift that cannot be questioned in its ways. Sometimes, hopefully at least once in your life, the gift of love will come to you in full flower, and you will take hold of it and celebrate it in all inexpressible beauty. This is the dream we all share. More often, it will come and take hold of you, celebrate you for a brief moment, then move on. When this happens to young people, they too often try to grasp the love and hold it to them, refusing to see that it is gift that is freely given and a gift that just as freely, moves away. When they fall out of love, or the person they love feels the spirit of love leaving, they try desperately to reclaim the love that is lost rather than accepting the gift for what it was, then moving on. They want answers where there are no answers. They want to know what is wrong in them that makes the other person no longer love them, or they try to get their lover to change, thinking that if some small things were different, love would bloom again. They blame their circumstances and say that if they go far away and start a new life together, their love will grow. They try anything to give meaning to what happened. But there is no meaning beyond the love itself, and until they accept its own mysterious ways, they live in a sea of misery. You need to know this about love, and to accept it. You need to treat what it brings you with kindness. If you find yourself in love with someone who does not love you, be gentle with yourself. There is nothing wrong with you. Love just didn't choose to rest in the other person's heart. If you find someone else in love with you and you don't love her, feel honored that love came and called at your door, but gently refuse the gift you cannot return. Do not take advantage, do not cause pain. How you deal with love is how you deal with you, and all our hearts feel the same pains and joys, even if our lives and ways are different. If you fall in love with another, and she falls in love with you, and then love chooses to leave, do not try to reclaim it or to assess blame. Let it go. There is a reason and there is a meaning. You will know in time. Remember that you don't choose love. Love chooses you. All you can really do is accept it for all its mystery when it comes into your life. Feel the way it fills you to overflowing, then reach out and give it away. Give it back to the person who brought it alive in you. Give it to others who deem it poor in spirit. Give it to the world around you in anyway you can. This is where many lovers go wrong. Having been so long without love, they understand love only as a need. They see their hearts as empty places that will be filled by love, and they begin to look at love as something that flows to them rather than from them. The first blush of new love is filled to overflowing, but as their love cools, they revert to seeing their love as a need. They cease to be someone who generates love and instead becomes someone who seeks love. They forget that the secret of love is that it is a gift, and that it can be made to grow only by giving it away.. Remember this, and keep it to your heart. Love has its own time, its own seasons, and its own reasons for coming and going. You cannot bribe it or coerce it, or reason it into staying. You can only embrace it when it arrives and give it away when it comes to you. But if it chooses to leave from your heart or from the heart of your lover, there is nothing you can do and there is nothing you should do. Love always has been and always will be a mystery. Be glad that it came to live for a moment in your life. If you keep your heart open, it will come again. Love Moves in Mysterious Ways by Julia Fordham Who'd have thought This is how the pieces fit? You and I Shouldn't even try making sense of it I forgot How we ever came this far I believe we had reasons but I don't know what they are So blame it on my heart, oh Love moves in mysterious ways It's always so surprising When love appears over the horizon I'll love you for the rest of my days But still, it's a mystery How you ever came to me Which only proves Love moves in mysterious ways Heaven knows Love is just a chance we take We make plans But then love demands a leap of faith So hold me close And never let me go 'Cause even though we think we know which way the river flows That's not the way love goes, no Love moves in mysterious ways It's always so surprising When love appears over the horizon I'll love you for the rest of my days But still, it's a mystery How you ever came to me Which only proves Love moves in mysterious ways Like the ticking of the clock two hearts beat as one But I'll never understand the ways it's done Love moves in mysterious ways It's always so surprising When love appears over the horizon I'll love you for the rest of my days But still, it's a mystery How you ever came to me Which only proves Love moves in mysterious ways Love moves in mysterious ways JPEG* Angels of Love 78 Comments

ChaRacTeR AnaLySiS.... Oct 8, 2005 9:55 pm Mood: blah, 612 Views I've been receiving alot of forwarded messages from my friends lately, i don't really enthusiatic about it co'z its really alot grabe!!! But since they're making some effort to communicate, or maybe to remind me that they still think of me despite the distance, despite the time difference and despite of busy scheds, i'm making efforts to reach each and everyone of those. Others are interesting, other not. Some are save, some deleted, some made it to this blog. So enough of my blah, i'm getting further on the real subject of this post. Browsing my mails this forwarded message got my attention; it pertains to a certain "Character Analysis". Having time to waste cause its our weekend off, no plans to go out since its raining cats and dogs outside, i took it and retook it. To make the long story short these are the result, i dont know how it vary co'z i know i made the same answers on both. Analysis #1 YOU ARE THE GRASS FRAGRANCE TYPE You have a very strong will, not dependent on others and give an impression of being a lone-ranger. You are extremely curious and sensual; living a clear headed modern life. At first glance you put yourself on a pedestal and are difficult to get along. But once others talk to you, they know you are easygoing. And when relationship develops, they realise you are affable. You have an androgynous charm, which make you popular with all genders. But you don't like your weak side to be seen. You might look cool on the surface, but beneath it you are really passionate. Only people who knows your true self can maintain a long lasting relationship with you. Analysis #2 YOU ARE THE ORIENT-FLOWER FRAGRANCE TYPE You have a very strong sense of self awareness and your own world, unlikely to be manipulated. You will use your own strength to actively reach your goals, and give an impression of being passionate. You are decisive with friends; added to the image of lone-ranger, those around you will feel that you are mysterious character. While being mysterious can be charming sometimes, other feel they cannot talk to you in a relaxing manner and finds you difficult to handle due to your caginess and high self regard. It even gets to the point where people avoid unnecessary contact and stay as far away as possible. The real you is actually gentle, but people will only notice your merits when they are very close to you. The question is which is which describe the real me? photo: Dandelion:A Grass or A Flower taken by me Along Main St., Somerville, New Jersey 4 Comments
