creatures of the night II

Its was one of those hot days. The sun seemed to have dropped by a couple on inches. Standing on that balcony and feeling the breeze sweep through me, i couldn't but help notice the activity down on the ground.

He was in a group of other boys, five of them to be exact. To this day i have never known what made him stand out from those others. My sights initially were not even on him, I was looking at one of them hunk basket-baller who i was swooning for. All hot and toned!

But this guy was there, this unexplained enigma that stood out like a sore thumb. There was something about him that gave me the rush, i felt flustered, even at that distance i could feel my cheeks burning...i was blushing and soon the blush bloomed into a full grown smile and a licking of the lips. Yeah,that the physiology of me falling for someone.Look,get smitten,start blushing,get shy, smile, laugh nervously and finally blurt something stupid. But this day,the distance saved me the shame of blurting out something stupid. I knew i wanted to know as much about this guy. However long it took me i wanted to know what his story was, and my guess was spot on, He was special in one fantastic way......

Usually am a poor judge of character. I tend to assume to much good in people. And time and again i have been proven flat wrong, but when am sure about someone, am usually spot on. Its as if i get this feeling that this person has something i can really put my finger on, but i can feel it...and I want to know what it is.

Then the pink paper appeared in my History textbook and history suddenly rewrote itself...to be honest, i treasure him to this day. He was special alright, in many ways than one...but then again if i reveal that, i'd have to kill you :)

Have a mysterious day!

The Point Beyond Which

 

There is one thing I have realized over time, that you can’t please everyone. No matter how good, kind and understanding I try to be, some guy will appear and somehow make my efforts seem so worthless.

We cannot however tire to do good, or be kind just because someone does not appreciate us. Nice guys may not always finish first but they finish with flying colors and in any case, this life is too short to try and tolerate people who are bent on frustrating all your efforts of being good and trying to be friendly.

Am not sure why people find it so hard that one can want friendship for friendship sake. I mean, just because I honestly want to be friendly doesn’t mean I want something from you, whatever happened to humanity!

There is a measure I at times employ to gauge the quality and value of my life: that if I was told I would die within a certain period of time, are there things I would drastically change in my life, and if there are I adjust accordingly. It pushes me to evaluate my values in life and focus on what really matters…it also drives me to that optimal point where I no longer care what anyone thinks as long as am doing what my heart desires and hurting no one on the road. One wise person said, “What others think of you is none of your business.” I couldn’t have put it more succinctly.

Be nice to someone today; no matter what they think your motivations are!

days of my life

                  Like sand in the hour glass,so are the days of our lives. Am using candle light to edit this post...rather romantic and quite inspiring. This country just has one big fat power problem...maybe the oil wealth will change that.
                  Almost two years you must wonder what i have been doing...well,getting some experience of living and loving under my belt. Living is quite manageable, loving, however simple it seems is never is. And those two years almost have been quite quite an eye-opener.  I have been in and out of love, experienced the best and worst of human kind...given up hope,regained it only to lose it again!
                  I can't give up up hope...never will, i have looked and prayed and i know it deep within me, one day: that guy of my dreams will walk right through this doors, i'll take one good look at him, smile from ear to ear and breathe a sigh of relief, for i will have arrived...then again,it probably will be the start of one hell of an adventurous journey!
                   As if by some mysterious design,even power is back...light at the end of the tunnel perhaps :). I remain truly yours...the Warrior!
