And then you find this sort of thing

Gender differences? Not really.

Holiday snaps

A lot of people have been asking to see holiday pics from my last few days in Spain.
And repeatedly have asked for them to be on the blog. This may not be the best pic ever but at least it will provide some calm to the people that inquired. If not ... well. Its life!!!

Belonging

As a rolling stone cultural identity and ethnicity become very difficult to identify and express. Yet they are vital elements of the configuration of a person. We exist through our interactions and the footprints we leave along the way. It is the that remnant in the other peoples life that makes it all function. That makes you be alive. Now some people you interact with leave bigger footprints than others, not everyone is the same and sometimes you connect better. In this camp the people are different, even if we all come from the four corners of the planet we share more in common than with our life long neighbours. It feels like this is my country, a country without borders, that does not exist. A country which only materializes itself when the people of that country get together. Its like finding your ethnicity, finding your clan. Well now that a stronger part of the identity can be defined sorting the other elements in this life long search.

Thanks to all those involved in here and to all those that convinced me of coming here.

Feels good to find elements, feels good to find the ground.

Love thyself

Love thyself and stop looking in the mirror. Stop finding excuses for what you don't want to do or don't feel like doing. Choose what you can to do in order to excel. Be done with the boring things quick and free time up for the interesting. The sleepy days of the teenager have to be long gone. The fear, the insecurities all that will prevent you from just being there and doing things has to leave. The non realistic things that make you promise. The word has to be as strong as Oak. And above all...... don't care about the others. Be as you are, even if you are not ware of it. Think enough, but do not over-think, live, enjoy be clean, be merry and happy.

I a few words just be. And stop thinking about being. And do not escape do not run away, be happy with thyself. All other elements will fall into place as they do and if not who cares.

On a warm summer night

It is pleasant how the long summer evenings yield to a calmness that puts the body at rest and the mind in thought. It was in evenings like this that I found the inspiration to write through the ages. I can consider myself privileged by the situations that I have found myself in, yet somewhere deep down I could have always done better. Yet in nights like this the synchrony comes back and feel like saying thanks. For a moment of tranquility has been upon me. A moment of pure calm. A moment of freedom, peace and pleasure. Sharing it just makes it all the better.

The air we breath

We all need air, we all replenish ourselves with every inhalation of this transparent non smelling substance that we bathe in. Yet every breath brings us closer to our end, scientific and metaphysically speaking. The air we breath like the water that we drink makes us and shapes the way we are. We are the putty in their hands, the four elements configure us. Yet when one moves or is moved around from one part of the planet to the other those elements change in their configuration. And we deeply feel those changes inside us. We miss the air we used to breath. We miss the water, the fire and the earth that saw us to life. We just wish and hope that the new ones will become a stepping stone for the next step. Yet as we do this we keep on breathing. We keep on dying. I met someone this week-end that seemed to be in lack of some old airs. I wish that we can carry on enjoying each others airs, for a while at least.

The past the future the tiredness

I am really far away from the point of no return in terms of mental sanity. I was blogging about bipolarity earlier. But do not worry out there, I am not about to start a fight club or anything like that. This is all part of the growing up process that I am undertaking. I need some time and space to find myself and I have to admit I am beginning to get the knack of things. At one stage or the other I will manage.

Bumping into some friends in the most unlikely place for them has helped. It has enlighten me as to how I was and what has changed in me. I am happy with the changes I just can not wait to be out of this phase and be done with my new self.
Many upgrades are needed but the end result is beginning to look promising.

So lets bring it on you mutta and lets rock this place!!!
