STEP BACK TO LOOK FORWARD

·        QUICK THOUGHT:STEP BACK TO LOOK FORWARD
-So u’ve made mistakes,big deal who hasn’t?!
-What’s done is done,time to move on
-It’s a lot to  take when the past comes flashing back,but it’s never to late to flashforward.


·         LYRICAL TOUCH:AFTERMATH(ADAM LAMBERT)
“Have you lost your way,living in the shadows of the messes that you made
And so it goes everything in your circle starts to overflow
Take a step before you leap into the colours that you seek
You’ll get back what you give away
So don’t look back on yesterday
Wanna scream out,no more hiding
Don’t be afraid of what’s inside
Gonna tell you you,ll be alright in the Aftermath”

“It’s not too late
Think of what can be if you rewrite the role you play”



Every time I hear this song,it gives me an ummph…the kind that makes you want to believe in the impossible,the kind that sort of tells you that the worst of your mistakes only need a little bit of fixing , that things will be all bright again and that the sun will shine again, IN THE AFTERMATH!!Maybe Adam meant something else singing this song,but that’s how I get it,and it speaks straight to my soul.
“Don’t be afraid of what’s inside”  we all go through things and at times we may not be so proud of what we see in ourselves or how messed up our lives can get but won’t kill us to take a step back to see  what really caused us to make those mistakes.Truth of the matter is,the deed is done but avoiding past experiences can be the easiest thing to do simply by:KNOW WHAT YOU DID,ACCEPT WHAT YOU DID AND NEVER REPEAT WHAT YOU DID!!

But hey…am not saying it’s the simplest thing to do,by far it’s the most dreadful and I’ll tell it to you upfront.Am speaking from experience here,fear Is the worst enemy to anything that’s why for all of us we fear  not looking back and not taking a chance on creeping through the shadows of our mistakes.But today I got a remedy for that,works like magic and definitely WORKS!!!

If living in the past scares you,if remembering your past haunts you,if you can’t get over the past ……..time to stop!!!
Ever heard that saying,when you want something with all your hear you gotta go out there and get it?? Well……that’s it!!!Step back from the shadows and take a leap to a clearer world,the world that you want to live and the world that makes you happy.Just take a hold of your life and the One who gave it to you knew what He wanted it to be for you,”so don’t look back on yesterday” and “ rewrite the role you play”

So the aftermath for you will be one you’ve made and one that lets you know that there’s nothing that can keep you from rising once you’ve fallen.We all need some time down ‘there’ to realize how ‘up there’ really feels like.

The Man That Made Me Believe In Impossibilities

How do I write about a man whose loud presence can’t be ignored? How do I begin to describe a man whose life should be written down in volumes of books, a man whose battles and achievements could literally make you wonder why you have never tried out that daredevil in you? A man whose blind faith and roaring spirit will leave you believing that anything is possible, as long as you just do it! I have never written down anything much about my father, mostly because words won’t do him justice and because you need to experience him to actually know who he is. He is tough, he is loud, he is sharp and witty, he never gives up and he is simply my papa. I know I will never get it right when it comes to the adjectives that could describe papa, mostly because he is more than words. He’s the man who’s taught me to live in the moment, because we can’t really trust the future. A man who’s taught me to be witty, because sometimes you have to outdo the book smarts to survive. A man who’s ta...

The good,the bad the ugly…the beautiful years of my life!

Happy new year!!!Two weeks down the line, and I still can’t predict how my 2013 will go down. I bet that’s the exciting part about new years( except from the annoying fact that I still   keep writing down the dates as 2012). Took me a while to write my first 2013 post,mostly cause I   had a cliché   idea of writing something about fresh starts,but I won’t take that turn.New year means a lot of things not just new beginnings, it’s also about rolling with the days as they come even when everything seems to stay the same, year in year out. Above all I can’t deny the fact that am alive, who knows what could have happened and nothing makes my heart more grateful   to my God for that blessing. So my first post this year is a lyrical piece written and   dedicated to my 2012 memories and 2013 ‘s unpredictable events. Two decades,that’s how long    I waited for you… If I could wait this long,then what could   possibly go wrong? I knew so...

Don't break my heart...

From the moment i loved you, I was afraid to say these words, But deep down i could feel it,and i knew it... Don't break my heart.. Don't tear me apart... With you am happy, That's how i know am lucky.. Without you,i am without me Don't break my heart... Don't tear me apart... Even though i know you will... This is no love poem,or else i'd have poured my whole heart out in my longest post ever!!!But i know how it looks and sounds,it's simply my love poem to this beauty called life...I heard a song this morning by Gym Class Heroes "Get Your A** Back Home" not the best title to a song(i know) but this line kept haunting me all morning "this type of life didn't come with instructions" By now if you reading this and thinking ,"like duh!!who din't know that??" hold onto that thought for just a bit. This is one of the most obvious facts:The  things that life can throws at us,sometimes can...
