Oversaturation




In life
we're either blindly optimistic
or bitterly pessimistic.

Assumptions without facts
And interchangeable emotions -  will leave one
 on either side of the spectrum.

Taking on something that requires
intense commitment
is the equivalent of jumping into a new relationship without properly healing
from certain damages.

You can be so caught up in the moment,
feel an indescribable high from starting something "new"
you are unrealistic
nor see the detriment - of not remembering;

You must crawl before you walk.

Gradually 
Move 
Forward

My plate was over flowing with various issues
and I added something new on top of it, assuming
it would be appetizing....

NO, STILL SLOP!

Cannot 
Place a rosebud on a pile of shit, 
it's still shitty underneath. 

You have to rid your self of certain elements 
 to start anew and plant your seed into the ground by 1st digging up the weeds....





What You Know About
Sacrificing
All Your Wants For All Your Needs???





Your burdens are perfectly measured
and gifted to you
according to your resistance.

No one rises above
who he or she has been
without first having fallen down. 

The best time - in fact, the only time
to make a real change in your life 
is in the moment of seeing a need for it. 

S/he who hesitates always gets lost
in the hundred reasons why tomorrow
is a better day to get started.

The bars on our cage are of our own making
Nothing in the universe can stop you
from letting go and starting over.... 




As I've grown older, I became more self conscious. 


Where I once elated to share my thoughts with others, manifested into not wanting outsiders
 to know aspects of what I am.

It has crippled me in a sense.

The overabundance of social media,
cheapened
better yet - tainted various forms of expression.

 It became a mockery 
or happenstance for anyone with a smartphone - the era of just because.

Gone was the desire/inspiration, 
replaced 
with a caricature of the sameness.


How many

 portray a false sense of perfection for onlookers to idolize...


Sunken into the abyss of the
Oversaturation 
of 

Nothingness...

"The art of living 
Does not consist in preserving and clinging 
To a particular mood of happiness, 
But in allowing happiness to change its form 
Without being disappointed by the change; 
For happiness like a child 
Must be allowed to grow up"
