The Little things.....Random Randomness

I realize in this world there are so many things out there. Every day, businesses are selling something new. Something new in fashion, the latest technology, or the latest new model car. There are so many things that are constantly being presented to us, we get excited, and try to buy the hottest new item that we think will make us more attractive or feel better. We sometimes think the bigger the house, the fancier the car, the bigger the bank account, the happier we will be.

Whenever I need to see things a little more clearly, I simply look at nature. I see how grateful animals are for the little things. Birds singing in the morning lets me know they are here with no worries, singing their song of life. Cows mooing in the afternoon lets me know they are alive, no worries, grazing on the beautiful grass. These are the little things that say to me, wow they have the secret to happiness!

Things like a new car, new house, and new money are great, but only have a temporary time before the newness wears off. When buying a new car and smelling the newness of it, its great, but how long does the newness last? You might have an old beat up "hooptie", but just being grateful that you own it, and still have a means of transportation, makes you want to clean it, and maintain it as if it were a new Porsche or Lamborghini. By simply appreciating what you have, it only makes you one step closer to the richness for you that's simple and free, Inner peace.

Love's Lover...Random Randomness

What's your definition of love? I think I'm going to start with my definition since I'm the one posing this question. I think love has so many good things in it. When I think of love, I think it has peace in it, joy is in it somewhere, happiness is in there, and commitment. Everyone has their own interpretation on it. Some people think it is a never ending list of lovers and it is revealed that way. Some think it can be obtained with that one and only. I think it can be obtained both ways, however I think its a matter of what two people agree and consent to. I don't think its impossible to have that one and only. If I had my choice, I would want that. I think its the most beautiful thing. When two people can commit to it and stick with it. However I do feel there has to be an openness that allows each person to express themselves honestly. I think again though, that can happen though only if TWO people want it. I also think love is faithful. It does not waiver because it can be seen in the conditional but it completely reveals itself nakedly in the unconditional. Whomever you think of as loving you unconditionally, that could be your example. Some are great at communicating it with words, and some are great at acting it out with action. Whether it be your mom, father, a daughter, son, grandparent, etc. Your family loves you just because, or whomever in your life loves you just because, that could be a great example. I'm a romantic at heart, so I think love can happen unconditionally with a lover as well. No attachment or benefit other than that person loving you totally, freely, unconditionally. You both know, no matter what, you will both be there for each other, and deep down, you would never try to intentionally hurt the other person, only love them and you BOTH are committed to that. A love that's committed can trust completely and continue to trust because it has communicated what it wants by example. I was so afraid in the past to reveal all of myself because I thought I would hurt the other person, not realizing I was actually hurting myself. I think probably the most beautiful thing about genuine love is knowing when you find that lover that you can show all of yourself, everything is revealed, yet you're still in a state of peace when you're with him or her. At that moment, you completely love loving yourself even more, when you're in their presence. What's your definition on it? Just my random randomness. Share your thoughts. Until next time, peace.

Happy Mother's Day!!

Hi Peeps! Just wanted to wish a Happy Mother's Day to the moms as well as to all the women who influence kids in some kind of way. (God Mommies, Sisters, Aunts, etc.) You all have influence in the lives of others and this is your day! Working on music as we speak and its taking a little longer than anticipated but its well worth the wait. I'm so very excited about this project and I only hope that you guys love it as much as I do. This is the place I just like to ramble so I decided to do something a little different. I'm going to throw out a word, once that word is thrown, let's just well, talk about it....Hmmm...the word is love....What does it really mean to you? I've tried to look at and observe different views on what it means to each individual person, but I've found a great example from a person who even though we may have our disagreements, has never left my side, my mom. Yes, if I wanted to see what love is, she would be the example. When I think of her, I think of strength, determination, committment, faithful, trustworthy, and so much more. This is what I see when I see her and I am so thankful to have her in my life. The way I reason is because of her, the way I think is because of her, and I think the way I love is because of her. How a mother loves you can affect the rest of your life. Hope you had an awesome Mother's Day!
