ONE STEP AT A TIME

“What saves a man is to take a step. Then another step.”
– Antoine De Saint-Exupery

Does the prospect of changing and growing seem monumental to you? Just too much to tackle?

Then consider this approach. Take a simple step of affirming your openness to experience more or something new. Or a different first step might be to let go of judgment by embracing the neutral. Begin to see the people, activities and things around you as neither good nor bad.

A journey is made of many small steps. Don’t focus on a far-off destination if you’re not clear how to get there. Build a foundation that is solid for you. We get to new places one step at a time.

“You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.”
– Martin Luther King, Jr.

“One may walk over the highest mountain one step at a time.”
– John Wanamaker

To let go of the future means to let go of demands, insistence, attachment, requirements, having to have, control. It means tipping your hat to life. It means blessing it. It means having happiness in mind and not requiring how it is to be funneled. Continue reading 

true love.

i now truly believe, that we would always have other loves. other lovers, other partners. but true love is deeply engraved inside our hearts. that no matter how hard we try to erase it, it would only scar us even more. even if we polish our hearts, sooner or later, it will still stale and the scars we tried to wipe off will always show. true love is engraved in us. there is no running away from it. because then, it will only leave us feeling alone …in a world where we thought would be enough to compensate for the love we have always looked for all throughout our lives… Continue reading

May you come to know, see, feel, and experience more and more of that world, which is your world, which is all that is real. May you come to accept, with unconditional love, non-judgment, and non-attachment all that tempts your five lower senses into believing the unreal as being real.

too pretty

i’ve always loved to see dried leaves

dried twigs or a barren tree..

i dont know why it strikes a cored within

but it has always touched a part of me. Continue reading 

the desire to share insight.

what follows the self sabotage, are temper tantrums, hurting another, flipping out, rebellious , chip on ones shoulder, about being willing to truly listen to whats being expressed to you, and through you. a complete and total neglagence towards the love of the being, a disregard for all life as it is, and a simple Continue reading

heart in my hand

“Your task is not to seek for love,

but merely to seek and

find all the barriers

within yourself that

you have built against it.”

awake in bed.

i lie awake in bed.

i lie in bed and called your name

silently. like a whisper in a rain

i let the tears fall one more time

tomorrow might be better…

it’s an overused line.

lazy sunday.

Wind hit my windows and made a sound

Like my heart crashing down the ground

The rain has stopped and as I gaze

Weather perfect for a lazy Sunday. Continue reading 

never let go.


i know how he feels
he is lonely and doesnt know why
he made a choice and wills
to not face his silent cry.
he seems to show me
that he is happy
but i can read him like a text book
his heartbreak made him not to look
at life with an open heart
because his heart’s broken apart.
we came together because we know
with you and me, we would sow
the promises we said to others
the forever that gave us the shudders.
we knew we werent making a melody
the harmony we had was for everybody
…to obey our hearts like we used to
seemed wrong when they left us
and that is the start of the end of me and you
we couldnt hurt each other
the way they hurt us
we couldnt love like we did before
so we built a life and so we soar…
eveything we wanted to be…
we became.
but that wasnt fate nor destiny
because we sought for fame.
from the kingdom that we grew up in
that’s the way it shouldve been.
we became the best in our place
and then we seem to be at the end of out phase
we were blessed with everything
we were given the chance
to live all that we ought to be
but never in romance
because the melody sounds so off key.
i love you.
and i know you do too…
and we know in our own way
that love is here to stay.
but that love… the love we have
isnt what we long
it is never enough
to make our hearts laugh.
but you and i… there is none
because our hearts are with the “one”
the one who got away
that left us all lost and we stray
…. trying to find our way back home
trying to find the feeling that we’ve always known.
with them. only with them.
you and her.
he and i.
the one we promised forever
the one that we only found worthy to cry.
my best friend… i wish you would open your heart
embrace the hurt and live
off the edge of the mountain
and love all the pain
that only she can heal
from the numbness that you both feel.
i believe that distance never is a reason
to put out the fire in your passion
that you have tried to kill
since that part is the remimnder of how you feel.
a new love will give you life…
but that life wouldnt have enough fire
to spark your desire.
live the part that was you and her
continue to make more melody
and set your soul free…
i see you are alive inside
if you ipen your heart wide.
take the risk… i guarantee
once she sees you unafraid
and your heart on the line you made
she will be at the other end..
with half of what you need to mend.
she loves with the a love to last
a lifetime if joy and pain
that she will endure again
because you are worth her tears
if only yoh would be brave enough to mask those tears.
you always have her heart
i shouldve seen that right from the start
but i was too blind to see my own
so i seek solace from you and my comfort zone.
we are all brought together for a reason
and now i gathered enough season
that learned to open my heart and do the imposible
leap from numbness to being vulnerable
it was the sweetest days if my life
when i didnt think of whats to come
even when things become shitty now
those days give me a reason to smile somehow
heal yourself, my friend
days are longer if you pretend
….may you find what you are truly looking for
may you find the widest door
to your own heart not to hers
because when you open yours….
her heart has always been there
open your heart… and deliver
the promise you made with each other.
i would be happy if you break dowb your wall
and when that day comes… then you will have it all
time is not of importance
just as long as finally know
we all never really let go.
