Rawness...

I LOVE to run.... it helps me clear my mind... I've be inspired, uninspired and inspired this time....

since you can't read my mind, Ill give you a glimpse.. THIS time

I have a purpose in life, So I feel everyONE

can't say what it means but i know its someTHING

or I wouldn't have this past,

that makes pain last, fresh in my heart

IM HUMAN AT LAST

I see your eyes, can't hide them from ME

They tell your story and through everything,

I see your struggle and see you fighting,

For whats RIGHT,for whats on your MIND,

for the way of the world that's changing with time,

Hold my hand

and together we'll walk

close your mouth

and together we'll talk

open your eyes

and together we'll see

YOU... YOU... and YOU

Bring the better in me

it is through our struggle, that we can achieve,

I higher level of thinking a more conscious of being

Give me strength and a season,

Give me RHYME and a REASON

take me straight to the top

U can't fake these thoughts

Give me time and a mind,

Watch us COINCIDE

There aint a moment in life, I would trade with mine

I'll give you time to believe

In what you finding in me,

Your beautiful mind, will also grow with these times.

ACTIVE LISTENING

To give into ones feelings and feel everything around you with deep passion, now there is such beauty in that. To feel that homeless person on the street when you pass by, look them in the eyes, and feel their emotions through their eyes, imagine their life and what they must be going through in such a difficult situation. To look at the old woman on the bus and her strength and struggles, to see all they she must of gone through in her lifetime and although nearly impossible, imagine yourself there. To look your friend in the eyes, when they are speaking to you and FEEL them, truly feel them, don’t think about what it is that you want to say next, don’t think about yourself, or your problems or what you are going to eat today. TRULY FEEL THEM, listen intently to every word and relate to them, offer them insight and feedback, read their emotions, show kindness and be caring. To know those around you and feel them is to know yourself.

You would be amazed at what you learn by learning other people. You learn through them, see through their eyes, and in turn feel new emotions through them that you have never felt before. Everyone perceives and feels things differently so to try to feel and see through someone else, gives you a different perception. To unselfishly see through someone is a beautiful thing. To humble yourself to those around you and bring your feet back down to earth, also a very beautiful thing. Don’t be afraid to connect with those around you, and everyone you come in contact with on a daily basis, offer them a warm smile, a kind heart and an attentive ear. We are all on this earth together, and if not to love and learn then for what. Everyday you have the power to affect peoples lives, every day you have the power to change the world, one emotion and one random act of kindness at a time. When you are at the grocery store, when you are at work, even when you walk across the street. Your every day actions and reactions have a direct impact and affect on the people you come in contact with

I challenge you to be deeper, to think harder. To put the material

things behind you or out of your mind,

and operate on a deeper level of consciousness

try it and see if you dont feel something different for a change
