Love That Grows Old

I want a love that doesn't compromise
I want a love that hits between the eyes
I want a love like a sunrise to my dark
I want to feel something deep inside
I want to heal, don't wanna have to hide
I want to read, no just fantasize with my heart

Everybody's always saying to look over your shoulder
The grass is always greener
That should do what I'm told

I'm gonna search
And when the night is young
Even if it hurts

Even when my fight's gone
I'm gonna wait for the right one
I'm gonna wait for the love to grow old

I got it wrong, one too many times
They play along and never seem to mind
I need a song but never learn the lines
Oh, no

Everybody's always saying to look over your shoulder
The grass is always greener
That Should do what I am told

I'm gonna search
And when the night is young
Even if it hurts
Even when my fight's gone
I'm gonna wait for the right one
I'm gonna wait for the love to grow old

Oh, it's not love, it's not love
If you don't have to struggle
Oh, not enough, not enough
If it don't cause you trouble

I'm gonna search
And when the night is young
Even if it hurts
Even when my fight's gone
I'm gonna wait for the right one
I'm gonna wait for the love to grow old

My Modesty List

- Speak as little as possible about yourself

Start listening more, you might learn something

- Keep busy with your Own affairs and Not those of others

Focus on what's important to you, because no one else will

- avoid curiosity

If it has no barring to you

- do not interfere with the affairs of others

After all, you wouldn't want anyone interjecting into yours

- Accept small irritations with good Humor

No need to deal in extremes when dealing with everyday pettiness

- Do Not Dwell on the faults of Others

For Our faults might even be worse

- Accept censures even if unmerited

Adaptation is the essential skill to survival

- learn to work with others

Otherwise this world will learn to work without you

- accept all obstacles and challenges as the learning process of life

- accept the possibility of being insulted, injured, slighted, forgotten or disliked

Trying to please everyone will drive you mad

- Be courteous and delicate even under provocation

Patience is the tool that prevails

- Do Not seek to be loved or admired

Trust and respect mean much more

- do not protect yourself behind your dignity

Our Ego often betrays us

- give in, In Discussions, even when you are right

Reason, in time, wins out

- choose, always the more difficult task

The Rewards far will exceed those from a simplier path

List by Mother Teresa and yours truly

It's Our Weekend

It's Friday afternoon
The week has been long
Come to think of it
The whole summer has flown by
and I have little to show for
A lot of new faces with different stories
but it's mostly Been the same
But hey, it's Friday
My Day
To be my dream
Without questions
Without consequence
With confidence
It's time to manufacture my reality
Because perception is reality
Maybe a little this, perhaps a bit of that
Don't we all have our wishes
They come from regrets
Funny...
How when my world stops spinning
The sun will still rise
and over the next millennium
Many will follow, but how many will take notice
Of the tracks in the sand
There is a rich history beneath our feet
And untold stories of has beens
Been there
Done that
I welcome the time that measures now
Not my yesterdays
Nor my tomorrows
I flee from your sight
I run to your mind
and
It's there that makes me unforgettable to the
Here and Now
Now is what matters most
Because tomorrow is never guaranteed
And Now
Is my weekend
Ciao
God I hate sprinkles
But I love dimples
That is what the now in life is
A continual love hate paradox
Of the same old new and recycled reruns of reality shows
God I hate TV shows
They brainwash you
And most people don't even realize to what extent
Unplug and unwind
The weekend is upon us
Peace, love and anything else that makes simple sense
Out of the indirect complexities of unequal haves and haves not
But, it's still your weekend
And best be enjoying it

Knockerball

It's like a cross between playing dodge ball and hitting a piñata...only more satisfying!  It's called knockerball:

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Q14o1746tI4

Quite frankly, I foresee it as the ultimate solution for all worldly disputes...between anyone and everyone who may have a qualm to settle.  Win, lose or draw...everyone wins at knockerball.

Imagine solving all issues with your coworkers during a thirty minute stint of high end, low risk no nonsense hard nosed collisions.

Bang, slam...bam!

Like that with no hard feelings.

The simplicities of theory with the complexity of reality.

That's the paradoxical hypocrisy of life and it's unmentioned duplicitous arts of existence.

Darts and horseshoes are only useful in basements, backyards and holidays....

Here, you just need space and folks...purpose just finds it self.

P.S.

Not to be confused with an SOS

If only I were so lucky 

to don a plastic air insulated suit 

and 

run unimpededly towards all the horde of cowards 

that seem to overpopulate 

this overly saturated rock of H2O

that hurls itself 

seemingly,

endlessly into a vast space of nothingness....

Of Somethingness

Life is Work in Progress

Automatic
