"If 'I Love You' is a Burden"
This is not a poem meant to express my love, But rather to convey to you the tragic lack thereof. Not lack of love but instead, of plain articulation. Sound of breath, the beat of your blood in circulation. Life’s words, only heard, these remain unwritten. Language that I long to hear will always be forbidden. The object of my affection transcends far beyond your skin, Your cells hold the...

Knock on the sky and listen to the sound.
Exactly this, last Thursday. I wonder how many people gained an interest in meditation after seeing this film? All I have been thinking about since is taking the time for some quality knocking.

When I was a kid, I became so appalled with the antagonist of, “The Hand That Rocks the Cradle,” that in the scene where the babysitter gets pushed out the window, I felt like rejoicing because the family was finally free of the malice she subjected them to.

The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most...

“Man.
Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money.
Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health.

the result being that he does not live in the present or the future;
he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.”

Lunacy
I define insanity as state of perception incongruent with reality. How much or how little the incongruence is just gauges how looney one is. But what defines reality? From a societal stand point, reality has to be heavily shaped by the conscious and unconscious understanding and agreement we have with each other as members of a society. From an individual stand point all of what can be said to be...

“I’m worried about vaginas.”
So I hear Chris Brown preformed at the BET Awards. His name is buzzing around because of it. A vlogger I subscribe to on youtube posed the question, “Is Chris Brown forgiven?” Comments left below suggest to me perhaps he has been, but something about restoring him to his former status doesn’t sit well with me. Here’s why.
