To You, To Me, For You

Never give up on love,
never give in to fear,
always remember your passion
for that is what makes you care
and that is what you should share
for that is why you are here

So I'll just keep trying to encourage you to share this way and any other way I can think of, cuz I adopted you and this is what family does, reminds you to be yourself, define yourself, grow yourself, express yourself...

Maybe I ask too much of you, but I believe you've got it in your to continue growing your confidence and ability to know and express yourself. I believe you could write a book one day and it would be full of the kind of insight and love that this world needs. Even more important, I believe you need to get it out, to ride through the catharsis that self-expression can be - into a new awareness of just how precious and few people like you are.

I'll just keep trying to convince you and hope you believe me...

There's always hope (I hope)... there's always hope because I hope!

Now you know my secret. Nobody sticks around, nobody come close, nobody seems to want to be near my intensity or madness or whatever we call the energy that makes me who I am, but I keep hoping somebody will recognize the pure desire to do no harm and unconditional love and not run away from it. There is always hope because I choose to hope there is always hope.

All the proof suggests I am wrong, all the signs are against me, but I will not stop believing in love (cuz as Elton John says, it's all I've got) and imagining the world as John Lennon imagined it in Imagine... I'll continue to do my best to live my songs... https://heartmindsong.blogspot.com ... hope you listen some time :)

I always wonder if you knew how I pour myself out onto the web... https://rhetroric.blogspot.com/

But it's not just for me I do this. Yes, I write to you to practice my love, to reinforce my hope, to articulate the reasons I do what I do, to be who I am, but that I can do in any writing anywhere. I come here because I believe in you. I believe you could appreciate what I am saying (and appreciate me too, which would be a wonderful gift for me, but it's not all about me, really lol lam). More than anything else, I come here to write to you to convince you that you are amazing and have so much potential to do so much good in this world. It starts with you believing in yourself. Every year, you do that better. Every year, you see a little more of your power and see through more of your doubts and fears.

I'm patient, but excuse me if I think you deserve all the rewards of the wonders inside of you right now, today. Kick the fears and doubts aside and you can see what I see, how much you are worth. How you could explain things you've been through and express what you've learned from those you help... and how much that would help you, and others, if you only let yourself find the words. They are in there, right behind those beautiful eyes. Look in the mirror. The moment you smile at yourself the way you smile at others when you feel loved by someone else, you will see it - you will find you.

So that's my little bit for tonight. I have a long day of softball tomorrow and should get some sleep. I just don't want you to forget - just because I don't write something like this to you every day, I still think you deserve it every day. I cheer you. I applaud you. I admire and respect you. I want you to see all you can be, and be all you can be.

I mean, if you don't mind ;) ;P

a-hem... :)

hl,
me

Still The Same

Every now and then I get a little bit lonely, but it's almost always by choice. Or forgetfulness. I wonder if you understand that. I don't know if anyone ever has. That, in and of itself, is lonely. I learned self-control as a survival skill before I knew how to define or describe what I was doing. Instinct saved me from so much, and eventually, I learned that everything I thought or felt was a choice. My choice. It isolated me so much from others, It still does. I did everything I could to try to forget this. I did everything I could to try to forget who I am, what I can do, and how it feels to be me. It didn't work. I did it for love. You are sometimes uncomfortable around me and I'm not sure if you know why. It is because I can feel everything and you can feel that and it scares you. It is your hypersensitivity. You don't know how to be comfortable with all you feel, especially because there are so many sad and painful feelings in this world and I feel ev...

The Writer On Beauty and Happiness

I once wanted to see myself as a writer, as a person gifted with a skill to put words together to say profound and wondrous things, to amaze readers with thoughts and emotions that would open their minds and free them from the shackles of fears that oppress us from without and from outside in this culture. What I have found in sharing personal letters is that most people personalize the thoughts and feeling in the words to a point where they either fall in love or become defensive, accepting the concepts and therein the person who they do not really know or rejecting them before ever knowing them. This is an attempt to reach beyond that superficial and over-personalized communication, an attempt to find your mind open, objective, and even eager to understand the concepts, thoughts, feelings, and playfulness in these words without judging the writer, without leaping to any assumptions or conclusions that you know me. For how can anyone truly know another without spending time lookin...

all I want

I check my email, nothing meaningful is there I check my phone, no one really seems to care I check myself, sometimes I'm not even here and still I do everything I can just to share because all I want to do in life is share. I ask for too much, it drives people away sharing everything is not popular today I just want someone who is not afraid to play without hiding or asking me to pay I just want someone real who really wants to stay I try to understand why people are afraid to share so afraid to trust, to love, to let themselves be here I understand how people can use and abuse me when I care but I don't understand over empowering fear to me that is just wasting the little time we have here all I want to do in life is share This isn't just to you, E, this is me trying to express myself and understand who I am, what I want, and what is missing from my otherwise happy life. The superficial challenges and comforts and cleanliness and healthiness matter, but ...
