P&R (perception & reality)

How is it that perception is the new reality

The new Say

in how we play our game

real or not

it exists

a mind game

ceasing to let go

taking control of

what we see

and what we do

I say this to reality:
give me a chance.

perception is all I got at this point.

for everyone to learn by heart

Desiderata

Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible without surrender
be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly;
and listen to others,
even the dull and the ignorant;
they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons,
they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain and bitter;
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.

Keep interested in your own career, however humble;
it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs;
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals;
and everywhere life is full of heroism.

Be yourself.
Especially, do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love;
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment
it is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.

You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore be at peace with God,
whatever you conceive Him to be,
and whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.

With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful.
Strive to be happy.

everything at once,
but we can do
something at once

What are the rules for hugging?

2005-12-25T15:26:50Z

I mean like during the holidays when you see all the people you haven't seen in ages. I always end up hugging the wrong people (the ones that clearly don't want to be hugged) or hugging the wrong way: picture two cheeks facing each other. So yes, I'm nerdy.

But on another note I want to wish you all a:
MERRY CHRISTMAS
&
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
Eat to your heart's content. Give something to an unprivileged kid/family/person.
ah.

What Would YOU Do?

Would you be bored?

Hi

It's been exactly a week since my last update so I'm doing good. :)What has happened since then? hmmm lets see...I'm 22! Thank God. I actually feel older. And thats not so bad but I do feel like I need to have done more things(be more independent) by this age. But thats okay because God is in control. I know that all I need to do is stay close to God and all will be fine.

On a sadder note, Nigeria was hit with 2 tragedies last sunday. A passenger flight from Lagos to Abuja(the capital)crashed. In addition to that, the First Lady passed away due to complications of surgery. While I wasn't directly affected by the two tragedies, I send my heartfelt sympathy to the families and friends of the victims. I hope all those who passed away Rest In Peace.

You know, I feel a little out of touch with LJ and people on my list. I want to get back into commenting!! And there's nothing stopping me but I practically have the internet for 4hrs and there's so much to do on the net before it expires for the day.

...or maybe I'm just being lazy :(
