It's never that SERIOUS???!!

There are certain phrases that people say, and once they come out of their mouth, all you can do is stare at them in silence trying to act polite and just smile.Yet deep down, there's a strong inclination to shout out "Are you serious?" One example that slowly gets on my nerves (not always,but in most cases) is: IT'S NEVER THAT SERIOUS. I know, it's never that serious, because taking everything too seriously makes you uptight, which is not a flattering quality. What annoys me most about these 5 words, is how some people choose to use it as an excuse when things go downhill, or when trying to convince you that your opinion doesn't matter to them ( hence the annoying aspect) So my head went to work on a few words and this is what i came up with,it's very SERIOUS!

Come on, it’s never that serious..

Nothing is that serious.

When I lose out on what I want,

"It’s never that serious.."

When I get what I don’t deserve,

"It’s still never that serious…"

When I choose to live differently,

And to believe in something,

"But still, it’s never that serious…"

So when does it get serious?

Is it a matter of opinion and choice,

For something to matter?

Or is it your way of living and letting go…

Letting go of what matters,

Living a life that doesn’t matter,

Yet life is serious, and everything matters!

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...

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...

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...
