History or Hysteria??

How important is history when it comes to who you are today. Are things that happened 20 or so years before you were even born truly a factor in who and what you or I are today?? Should history be able to dictate your beliefs and our future forever? Should I hold on to luggage that my forefathers carried and check it in at every convenient moment during my lifes journey? Yea my father violated children and people, but I am I indebted to them? Am I marked by you forever by this?? Of course a bus load of French soldiers murdered and robbed my great grandparents but must I have some grudge or angry mission against them to prove something?? Are we responsible for occurrences in our life? Is it Karma? Is it evil? I once read that we as people have a strong desire to hold on to adversity and short comings because we believe it holds our identity and identity is severely important to us. If that is true, does that mean because some of my ancestors made horrible choices that these choices are key and hold the truth to my existence, worth, success, and relevance in this world today?? Do we hand down history to keep us divided or to as I am to understand,"stop it from repeating itself?" If you ask me, we really have not come that much further and if you watch the news history is repeated everyday no matter how much we are aware of past history. Maybe I live in a bubble, maybe I am just ignorant, or maybe I am one of the few who knows his history in the interest of learning and not for condemning and holding tying to it forever. ???????????

The Dark Side of Me

So we all have things about us that not everyone is aware of. I want to share an interesting little tidbit about me. I love the dark! I somewhat dread sunshine. Yea I know, your probably thinking that someone as loving, and endearing, and so full of light, with so much positivity would be living in the sun! Nope! I have always preferred the darkness over the sunlight. I hate to sunbathe. I am drained on Sunny days like cryptonite. In my home the shades are always drawn and I only use electric when extremely necessary. Candles are my babies! I love the glow and the mysterious shadows that they cast. They inspire me and energize my soul. I was born in the summer but in the am hour of twilight. I love to do everything at night. I love to swim at night, go out, work, work out, and I am most inspired creatively in the dark. Hey I even get showered in the dark. Its TRUE!!! Its bad for me but I will even read in very low light. Darkness is always given a BAD name and looked on as negative, but darkness holds an AMAZING beauty for me. Darkness is so rich and velvety and seductive and intoxicating!! I can't get enough. I'm even writing this post now in the dark, lol!!! Ok, so that is one interesting piece of trivia about me. Is there anything about you that you would like to share????

Dates to remember

So today is May 25, 2010. 5/25/2010, the 25th day of the 5th month in our calendar. Why do I care? Why is it even in my stream of consciousness to remember this day? It's funny, and it's sad. Either way I should commemorate it. Today is "his" birthday. I know what your thinking, it must be an ex. Well you're wrong. It really is'nt. He is not even a friend. Yet he is intrinsicly bonded to my being. I see him in the mirror, I feel him in my thoughts, and I remember him on this day. Did he hurt me? I guess. Did he scar me? Possibly. Do I love him? I'm not sure. Am I afraid of him? Never! What a b^&tc* it is that he should be remembered on his day! Disgusting for me and flattering for him. I can imagine him now, not in a very festive situation is he. Just a memory, a ghost of my past that will never materialize again but indefinitely leave his mark as a cold spot on my brain. Pooof, out go his candles. Goodnight, good life, goodbye, good greif, good riddance. I hope you remember me:(

Brotherly Love in the Big Apple

So most of you know I am from Philly!! A.K.A illadelphia ahhahahh!!! I moved here a lil over 2 years ago. Prior to, I had so many misconceptions about this beautiful city. I mean its thought of as filthy, crowded, violent, and the people coldhearted. I DONT THINK SO!! Of all the graciousness that I have recieved over the time that I have been here, the latest is when I lost my keys. I went jogging this past Saturday and dropped my house keys. No big deal right? Well the main door key is a special security key that cannot be copied and costs about 60 dollars to copy!!! UGH!! So as I am trying to figure a way out to copy the key I recieve an email from a woman whose husband found them on the jogging trail. They took them to the library(because my card was attached to keys and located me!!!!! How amazing!!! I mean they could have just thrown them somewhere or etc, but they took the time to go to the library and find out who they belong too! Hey its NYC they could have just robbed me, right!! Wow!! GO NYC!!! Thank you Craig and Cristina!! Also, thank you Geno, Charles, Arthur, Mauricio, Damon, Elaine, Lisa, Robin, Gina, Maxine, BAAD, Debra, Angel, Daisy and the list follows!!! Who has touched your day recently or what event has refueled you zest for people and life!! ooxoxoxxoxoxoxoxoxo

Blog Virgin

Ok, so here is my first blog. Trying to decide what to blog about is not easy. So what can you write to get people interested in what you have to say. Well "sex" is always an attention grabber. I go with "blog virgin". Not very original but hey everyone is attracted to a virgin. Right?? So now I got the thought that everyone equates virginity with only sex, but when you think about it, everything that is a first can also be equated with virginity. You always here people using the term for things like eating for instance, someone will say, "I'm a fried oreo virgin" or something to that effect. So, what kind of virgin are you still?? I must say that I am a Statue of Liberty virgin. I have never been to her!!! I need to take care of that!!!
