Maisha.
It never ceases to amaze me how life always seems to smack us, right in the face, with sacs of irony and tons of sarcasm. Many are the times you are fooled into thinking the opposite of what truly is. When you think you are up, that is when you are really down or about to slip, the only exception being that you don't get to know it, until it does happen. When you think you are free, more often than not, you are shackled to one thing or the other. When you think your life is going places, that's the time you are mostly at a stagnant point, or going round in circles on a downward spiral. Might
not make a lot of sense, but if you honestly examine your life
with an open mind, then you might find it to be closer to the truth than you expect.
Life is not always what we expect it to be. The fact that the
unexpected always happens, is what tends to make our lives all the more
interesting and worth living.

Reflections.
I choose to pen my own lines and chart out my own path, not because am oblivious as to how the tide flows, but rather its a choice I choose to stand by. A choice to stand for what I believe in and be who I am, not because am out of options, but simply a concious decision that needs not conform to the societal structure. A societal structure that seeks to oppress and imprison the free spirited of souls amongst us. A societal structure that further seeks to suppress the freedom of expression. Structure that suppresses the weaker members of the same society. Oppression that we must rise above and suppression that we must conquer. I choose to be a non conformist as to what the same society expects or thinks of me. I choose to conform to my own core values of who I am or think myself to be.
I choose to stand up for freedom, for the right to be or not to be, the right to freely express myself and more so, I choose to stand for all that is just and right, by me. Its you life, its your choice. Make it count.

Musings.
Recently heard about a crazy product called chilli chocolate,
don't know if it exists or its just someone's imagination running wild.
But all the same it got me to thinking. The product if it does exist,
would be so much like life. Chilli, being a bitter ingredient
would have to signify the heartbreaks, disappointments, loosing loved
ones and hardships that we undergo in our day to day lives. Chocolate
on the other hand, would signify finding that someone special, falling
in love, landing a new better paying job and all the sweet and good
times we have had in our lives. Life,
like chilli chocolate, is so full of sweet memories interlaced with
some bitterness sprinkled within and carefully wrapped with smooth
packaging of pretence.
Pretence in the sense that most of us spend so much time trying to be
someone/something we are not so as to impress others. Low self esteem
or lack of confidence or just trying to adapt to society? Go figure!
We so much spend our
lifetimes complaining, with all the bitterness we can muster, about the
hardships and problems that we undergo and yet we fail to see all the
beauty that surrounds us. The kind of beauty that is found within the
depths of the souls of those who care about us, the beauty of touching
someone's life and most of all, the beauty of being alive. Isn't it ironic how such a simple thing, such as chilli chocolate, can make us be appreciative of life and being alive? Spread the love around, for after all is said and done, just like the chilli chocolate, we only live once.

Imaginative Voyage.
Welcome
to the world of thoughts, my thoughts, to be precise. A world where I
can go wherever I wish and be whoever I desire to be. A world where the only rules set, are those of my own-scratch that-why spoil the fun by adding rules A world where my imagination is the highway to any destination. A world full of opportunities and possibilities. A world where freedom abounds. If imagination be the key to a fruitful life, then I should be having a pudding. Let your imagination roam and wander, you never know what you may discover.

Thot-A-Licious.
As I take a stroll in the maze of passages along the corridors of life, tring to find an open door as to what, or where, my destiny is, am quickly reminded of how fickle our lives are and of how certain illusions of grandeur keep us from achieving what we are trully capable of.
We so often tend to let our fears cloud our judgement and hold us back from taking risks. We so often tend to linger in the past or things that we don't have rather than focussing on the present and being grateful for what we've got.
Life is so full of fallacies and ironies. Some things, try though we may, are unexplainable and some thoughts are, well.....unthinkable!
Sometimes the words matter and at times it's really all about the thoughts. I do find solace and liberation in my writings. Even though at times, I do find them to be abstract subjects that have absolutely no corellation to each other-but that does not stop me from expressing my inner self.

Random Thoughts
|
Random thoughts of freedom intertwined with random thoughts of boredom caresses my mind's labyrinth.So many random thoughts, through my head they run, so little time to meditate.
So many things to say and yet so little time to do so.I choose to write what I want and think what I wish.
So much confusion around, and yet we never find the time to settle down and reflect.
Too many questions to ask and yet few, if any answers to be heard.I set my own pace and map out my life's path.
So many unresolved issues and ironically, am totally at peace with my soul.

Well
it's yet another day. Same old routine same old problems and to make it
worse, it's a Monday! Don't Mondays seem like the longest days? Don't
you just wish you could skip straight to Tuesday or better yet, to
Friday? But then again wouldn't you just have moved the same drab day
to a different spot/day?
Am just having a bad day. Don't you just wish that one day you could wake up and leave everything behind and head
to a far away place where no one knows you? Where you never have to
worry about what the psycho that lives next door to you will do next or
what will be Osama's next target?
It's
a strange world we live in and yet do little or nothing to change it.
Maybe if wishes were horses, it would be a totally different
world-don't you just love daydreaming!
Am just totally bored and tired of not knowing what to expect next.

Well,well. It's the day after valentines-You spent all your money,
trying to impress your date.Come the morning after, your ass is broke
and to to top it all up, you didn't get some! Don't you think this has
just got to be a day "created" just to maximise sales and piss off the
single people? But then again maybe am just being cynical.
