Life goes on

Now:

“According to Vedanta, there are only two symptoms of
enlightenment, just two indications that a transformation
is taking place within you toward a higher consciousness.
The first symptom is that you stop worrying. Things don’t
bother you anymore. You become light-hearted and full of joy. The
second symptom is that you encounter more and more meaningful
coincidences in your life, more and more synchronicities. And this
accelerates to the point where you actually experience the
miraculous. (quoted by Carol Lynn Pearson in Consider the
Butterfly )”
― Deepak Chopra, Synchrodestiny: Harnessing the Infinite Power of
Coincidence to Create Miracles

Then:

Was busy cleaning out my facebook profile when I stumbled on this message in my inbox.

I remember how I felt when I first read this. Now it just is. I glace at it with simple indifference.

It just makes me wonder what pushed her so over the edge that she felt this would be the best way she could express her emotions.

Remember:

“…the past gives you an identity and the future holds the
promise of salvation, of fulfillment in whaterver form.
Both are illusions.”
― Eckhart Tolle , The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual
Enlightenment

Je porte ton coeur avec moi - E.E. Cummings

Reblogged from Garde ca pour toi:

(Ceci est ma traduction du poème, ce n'est pas une traduction officielle)

Je porte ton coeur avec moi, je le porte dans mon coeur
Sans lui, jamais je ne suis, la où je vais, tu vas, ma chère
Et tout ce que je suis le seul à faire, est ton fait, ma chérie

Je ne crains pas le destin car tu es a jamais le mien, ma douce…

I love this poem

Falling for friend’s

Watched this video today and just wanted to share. The part that caught me by surprise was when Josen said that there is plenty of time to be single. Don’t let the one you want go just because you want to play the numbers game.

That is where most people make their mistake, taking people for granted and such. When fear is involved, which in most cases it is, people tend to take the easy way out in an attempt to protect themselves.

Relationships change- bonds are created while others deteriorate. You can try fight it but eventually you will give in, accepting what is as well as what will be.

"Don't underestimate the seductive power of a decent vocabulary."

When Black Celebs Become White [Photos]

Reblogged from College Candy - Gossip . Fast Fashion . Female Lifestyle . Relationships:

This isn't a joke post, though some of these celebs have become some funny looking people. To be honest, I am quite sick of this shiz. I hate when celebrities get famous and slowly but surely lighten their skin. They do this in a lot of ways, with actual bleaching products, wearing extremely light foundation or with Photoshop. Look, I am not going to debate about the politics of brown women wearing a weave or sporting your natural hair texture (

Myth Busters: Black Women only get "ugly" White Men

Reblogged from Black Women White Men | Interracial Blog:

Seriously? Do the haters ACTUALLY believes this?

It's widely known that women all over the world are coached to choose a mate based on more than just looks. Factors such as love, ambition, willingness to provide and take care of a family, to commit, loyalty, honesty, values, stability etc. weigh more heavily, or at least they should, when choosing a man to settle down with.

17:35, 14 Aug – Ms: I’ve thought about it…and I’m just gonna be honest. I’m in a different head space then I was last year. I’m not looking for just sex or sexual exploration anymore. I’m an awesome woman with a lot going for me. I’m looking to date someone bad see where things go. I dnt do things half way but I want to take things slow. I don’t think I can give you what you “want”.

I’ve learned the hard way that If you don’t ask for what you want then how can you expect to get it? Its something people tend to take for granted without realising it.

I’ll lay it down one time through, gather round
Though this is a chore
So rich with lies, I prefer poor advice
And showed her the door
This is your goodbye kiss opportunity Thought you were burning me down
But I’m finally free

Can breathe, I can see
Think about the mess that you’re in
Some things I couldn’t see
What about the rest of you
Well, under my skin
But I can’t let you in
No you don’t see scars
That’s exactly what they are baby

You’re never gonna hurt me
If you miss me don’t
If I never wanna see you again I won’t
If you get an invitation I’m probably drunk You’re just as hot as radiation
But I’ll mend this situation — Gavin DeGraw, Radiation

Et Mr was like a sure thing for me for the longest time but I’ve taken off my rose tinted glasses. I tried so hard to over look the issues and push my doubts aside in an attempt to get what I thought I wanted – him. I’ve changed and I only realised how much when this situation presented it’s self. I leaving him behind with no regrets to speak of. Simply put, music and time are my greatest healers.

I have been listening to this obsessively and thought it was poetic. These are the last words that Frank Ocean sings in his song “Bad Religion.”

It’s a bad religion
To be in love with someone
Who could never love you I know
Only bad religion
Could have me feeling the way I do

Simple, effortless and poetic.
