Beautiful People

“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.” 
Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

Jan 22 2012






  • Losing your way only really presents itself as a problem at the moment you realise you are lost. Then you have to face the choice: finding your way or staying lost

Sunday, January 22, 2012

I know,  I know I've posted these before, but for some reason it seems REALLY important to post them again today. Don't ask there are things going on again that I can't explain I can only feel and well yeah.


Silent Lucidity


Hush now don't you cry

Wipe away the teardrop from your eye
You're lying safe in bed
It was all a bad dream spinning in your head
Your mind tricked you to feel the pain
Of someone close to you leaving the game of life
So here it is another chance
Wide awake you face the day
Your dream is over or has it just begun

There's a place I like to hide
A doorway that I run through in the night
Relax child, you were there
But only didn't realize and you were scared
It's a place where you will learn
To face your fears retrace the years
And ride the whims of your mind
Commanding in another world
Suddenly you hear and see
This magic new dimension
I-will be watching over you
I-I'm gonna help you see it though
I-will protect you in the night
I-I'm smiling next to you in silent lucidity

If you open your mind for me
You won't rely on open eyes to see
The walls you build within come tumbling down
And a new world will begin
Living twice at once you learn
You're safe from pain in the dream domain
A soul set free to fly
A round trip journey in your head
Master of Illusion can you realize
Your dream's alive you can be the guide but
(I) will be watching over you
(I) I'm gonna help you see it though
(I) will protect you in the night
(I) I'm smiling next to you

The new love of my life :oP


For you Babe, remember


Take a breath
Take a deep breath now
Take a breath
A deep breath now
Take a breath

When you're down is where you find yourself
When you're drown there's nothing else
If you're lost you'll need to turn yourself
Then you'll find out that there's no one else

To make the moves that you can do
When you fall from grace your eyes in blue
Your every breath becomes another world
And the far horizon's living hell

Take a breath
A deep breath now
Take a breath
A deep breath now
Take a breath

This kind of love is hard to find


I never got to you by being kind
If I'm the one to throw you overboard
At least I showed you how to swim for shore

When you're down is where you'll know yourself
Then if you're drown there's nothing else
When you're lost you need to find yourself
Then you'll find out that there's no one else



Take a breath
A deep breath now

Guess I'm finally out of time :o(

If Time  is all I have 



When you wake up
Turn your radio on

And you'll hear this simple song
That I made up
That I made up for you

When you're driving
Turn your radio up
Cause I can't sing loud enough
Hard these days
To get my message through

If time is all I have
I'll waste it all on you
Each day I'll turn it back
It's what the broken-hearted do
I'm tired of talking to an empty space
Of silences keeping me awake

When you marry
And you look around

I'll be somewhere in that crowd
Torn up, that it isn't me

When we're older
And the memories fade
I know I'll still feel the same
Yeah
For as long as I live

And if time is all I have
I'll waste it all on you
Each day I'll turn it back
It's what the broken-hearted do

I'm tired of talking to an empty space
Of silences keeping me awake

Won't you say my name, one time
Please just say my name
And if time is all I have
I'll waste it all on you

Each day I'll turn it back
It's what the broken-hearted do
I'm tired of talking to an empty space
Of silences keeping me awake

If time is all I have
I'll waste it all on you
Each day I'll turn it back
It's what the broken-hearted do
I'm tired of talking to an empty space
Of silences keeping me awake

Won't you say my name

When the song is over

What can I say

Looks like I've been fooled again.
You'd think I'd have learnt not to trust anyone EVER by now wouldn't you.
Not sure if it says more about them and how cruel and undeserving they are or about me and
how worthless and unlovable I seem to be becoming and yes that's how I've been made to feel AGAIN.

Strip Me


Everyday I fight for
All my future somethings
A thousand little awards
I have to choose between
I could spend a lifetime
Earning things I don’t need
That’s like chasing rainbows
And coming home empty

And if you strip me,
Strip it all away
If you strip me,
What would you find
If you strip me,
Strip it all away
Ill be alright

Take what you want
Steal my pride
Build me up
Or cut me down to size
Shut me out
But I’ll just scream
Im only one voice in a million
But you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me 

I dont need a microphone
To say what I been thinking
My heart is like a loudspeaker
Thats always on eleven

And if you strip me,
Strip it all away
If you strip me,
What would you find
If you strip me,
Strip it all away
I’m still the same

Take what you want
Steal my pride
Build me up
Or cut me down to size
Shut me out
But I’ll just scream
Im only one voice in a million
But you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me 

Cos when it all boils down
At the end of the day
Its what you do and say
That makes you who you are
Makes you think about,
Think about it
Doesn’t it
Sometimes all it takes is one voice

Take what you want
Steal my pride
Build me up
Or cut me down to size
Shut me out
But I’ll just scream
Im only one voice in a million
But you aint taking that from me
Oh oh no you aint taking that from me

No it isn't


OUR JOURNEY



There is a journey awaiting you
It comes in truth and promise
When you reach the point 
of not knowing who you are or where to go
This most precious but often painful passage 
is the journey of yourself
You will travel to places never before visited,
Where you meet unspoken fears and unearth buried truths
You will climb high and perilous mountains...
those that rise up from inside yourself

You will explore forgotten waters held deep in the sea of your soul
You will be stranded in the wilderness 
and find a way through pathless land
You will be lost before you are found...
You will be empty before you are full
You will cry the deep sobs of the earth
and tears of rain will cleanse the house around your heart
In time...because life, like birth and death, knows its own time
Your fears and struggles and unknowing will be transformed
You will become a mountain place where eagles soar
You will become a reflecting pool
which sees and knows the mysteries of your life

Your heart will be light like a butterfly
as you follow the currents of its true desires
The flight of the honeybee will be yours
as you seek the nectar of what brings sweetens to your daily life
Most of all you will become who you truly are
Your life will hold truth and promise and meaning
And the heart of the heavens will hold your heart.

Step by new step


A time comes 
when you need to stop waiting 
for the man you want to become 
and start being the man you want to be.

Baby step by baby step, you have what you need right now to start moving in the direction of your happiest dreams. The dream and the dreamer are always matched. You could not have a dream without the means, right now, to begin it.

Earth, ourselves, breathe and awaken,
