Holding on....

 We hold on to so much stuff that weighs us down and makes us feel bad…grudges, regrets, outdated dreams, crummy beliefs about ourselves…even ratty clothes that make us feel bad but we just don’t get rid of them for some reason…..it’s heavy and yucky and all it takes is a decision to not carry it around anymore…wouldn't today be a great day to let some of it go…to get rid of it??? Just try…just a little bit, then a little more tomorrow…..it’s Spring cleaning time…time to let go of anything that is weighing you down, beautiful soul!!!!! You’ll fly better without all of that stuff!!!

"Holding on..."

Stuck somewhere between the heart and lips pushed down by the echoes of memory echoes loss: the mirror reflection of connection.

We spend our lives shedding pieces of ourselves: molten hopes and dreams that slough off into the thoughts of everyone we meet like stardust falling to the Earth from distant stars.

These are the pieces we hold on to: the pieces that are part of us that can never be put back into the same place again after they dissolve into nothing.



I was struck with an intense sadness upon looking up at this pic: tangle of branches against the grey winter sky on a particularly bleak winter day a took by someone in web....few months ago but as I gazed at it (even now really), it filled me with a sense of hope as if I was witnessing life connecting in a grand way.

My best friend

when all these feelings of frustration come over me and I need to calm down… where are you now? when I sit alone thinking about life and all the things I’d like to tell you… what are you doing? I’m not thinking about the past, just those promises that I promised to keep. I just wanna know what you’re up to… I wanna know where you’ve been. and, well, if there’s someone new…I’d wanna know that too. at least then, I’d be in your life as a friend and not a stranger. because I don’t like the way it is right now. best friend, I get that we didn’t work out right now. but I don’t get why you left my side. and I  don’t get why you decided not to care. but most of all, I don’t get why every story we swore would never apply to us… now somehow does. P.S: This is for my best friend Anjali I miss her so much....

MUSIC SHOULD BE FROM HEART

I really appreciate honest music. And, that comes from how the music is portrayed and how it is projected by the musician. It’s not necessary to be 100% technically accurate (even though it’s a big plus)— it’s important to have substance and to let the audience know that the music is truly being played from the heart and through genuine feelings. It can sound perfectly in tune and rhythmically accurate, but if it has ‘nothing’ beneath all of that flashiness… I just don’t appreciate it. Of course, all of this requires practice, and with practice comes the technical and the musical ability.

No One Owes You *****

................... in life.  Nothing at all.  Just had a conversation with a friend recently and I said just that.  No one owes me anything- regardless of my experiences, struggles, successes, generosity, kindness… BUT I owe it to myself and to anyone who comes in contact with me/has to be around me to be the best version of myself.   It falls in line with my mantra of never lamenting one’s conditions, meaning if you hate your job- find a new one, if you hate your partner or relationship- be brave, end it and move on.   But while you are still employed at said job or with said partner (etc, etc) continue to work at full capaci...
