The world need a Dreamer Who brave to create it "I don't care it sound crazy" "They can say i've lost my mind" We can live in the world that we design.... Never stop believing in your self And NEVER GIVE UP!! If you stop and give up You don't know how great you can be NEVER DOUBTS YOUR SELF! Doubts **** more dreams Than failed ever will The more IMPORTANT is NEVER GIVE UP!! NEVER STOP BELIEVING IN YOUR SELF! AND NEVER DOUBTS YOUR SELF! Believe it, make it and happen it......

Be A Dreamer
I wonder if you could tell me What you saw in my eyes on day one The day we met had a warm summer breeze But what did you see under our setting sun? I ponder until my sky has darkened What you heard that you didn’t want to let go of The night we sat in Aya with our eyes widened But what did you hear through the music of love? I squander my imagination out of reach What you could’ve felt on our last embrace Over the clouds, mourning mountains and seas But what did you feel about the memories we couldn’t erase? I surrender my thoughts and dream from yesteryear What stopped us from erupting every single day? Through our implosions, we’ve turned igneous and seared But what good are we if we can’t make it through today?

Prevailing in travailing
It ain’t too bad to be from there Just ask my family and friends But it’s too flat, ain’t no way out The roads are all dead ends. Sometime soon I’ll find a place Where the music I’ll enjoy But for now I keep on tryin’ To escape from Illinois! There’s a river on the border west That moves a lot of dirt Mighty Muddy Mississipp Drowns the pain and covers hurt Yeah, I’m movin’ south to New Orleans Maybe I can find employ In a blues bar down on Bourbon Street Escape from Illinois! Well I stopped a week along the way When I saw the Gateway Arch. But the folks out by the airport Were stagin’ up a march. Seems a white cop fired a shot that killed An unarmed teenage boy Oh yeah, the teenage boy was black, Escape from Illinois. Kept walkin’ to the Landing (Named for Pierre Laclede) It has most every thing you want But nothing that you need Some travelin’ folk told me some news That made me jump for joy Memphis maybe had some work Escape from Illinois! Found the haunted house called Graceland And the grave where Elvis lay Where half a million go each year (Fifteen thousand every day) They all want to pay respects To the rockin’ – rollin’ boy Put their finger in the bullet holes Escape from Illinois. Went downtown, knocked on some doors Once or twice I went inside But Beale Street was broken The travelin’ folks had lied. ‘Cuz there ain’t no jobs in Memphis, Or maybe I’m too coy So I hitched a ride to Nashville Escape from Illinois. Nashville’s a big old meltin’ *** Lots of great ones started here But most end up as tourists Getting’ ****** and drinkin’ beer So money’s at a premium And fame’s a fake decoy End up workin’ in a record store Escape from Illinois? From Asheville to Atlanta From Austin to LA From Biloxi back to Baton Rouge Need a place where I can play I’ll follow all the buskers, Form a musical convoy Livin’ day by day and town by town Escape from Illinois! I’m a minstrel, like a rubber band I keep on snappin’ back I’m gonna make it somewhere Singing somewhere, that’s a fact Got my guitar and my music Gotta do what I enjoy Find a place to sing my songs for you, Hell, it may be Illinois!

Life is beautiful Life can be beautiful An easy mix up of words that can lead to confusion to the mind When you don’t know the type of waters you are testing “IS” is a mere perception “CAN BE” makes room for decision “It is head” versus “It can be heads” Because it leaves room to be “tails” Food for thought We paint a picture in our minds on how we “ought” to be Time is endless But we have this idea that we are wasting time Then wait! What time are you running by? Is it the time of your life? Because any split second your death is unknown and all human beings know with life comes death and that is our destiny that we cannot run away from but to live in adventure But the adventure is crushed by the story-teller of your life Story tellers tells you to believe in a religion, that God does not like ugly, that women should obey their spouse, that people should procreate, marry and eliminate all human beings who does not meet qualifications or expectations of the story-teller The story-teller also insist on telling you that you have to go to college, make a living, make status, make money, buy a house and make kids to do it all over again. You must live your life based on these certain structures because this is what it is and shall be The story-teller is merely one perspective and it is their own perception of their life’s book How can it fit for every single human being? Life is beautiful Life can be beautiful Is the same unasked question of life “Life is beautiful“–deters the idea of being anything more but just beautiful There is no ifs, buts, should, could, would, or nots than what it just is There is no room left for a decision because the decision is already made Without the interference of others thinking another Life is anything you perceive it to be That’s why “Life can be beautiful” Because it articulates what the mind faces to overcome everyday of our lives We bring our experiences, circumstances, ideas, creativity, talent, and etc to draw conclusions or shape one’s own views Whether life is good or can be good is determined by your perception and experiences It is determined by whether you packed up your good and bad experiences to shape your overall thought and leads you to react in a certain way depending on a situation. My Voice of Wisdom & Knowledge: Life is beautiful to me I do not believe it is anymore than beautiful because I don’t want to open any cans of possibilities for it NOT being “beautiful.” The “can be” allows room for it to be full of other possibilities other than beautiful. When I say it is, it is PERIOD This is my truth! Life can be so easy as having great conversation, mental stimulation, *** more *** fun, love, and adventures in nature. Conversations are meant to spark thought I don’t think it is there to offend or make people uncomfortable unless that uncomfortable person feels “a way”–then it is merely their own issue Those who do not converse on certain matters is COOL too because they still can actively listen to the conversation and make their own input in their minds Everything in life CAN BE peaceful and loving But we get so caught up with our own view and perception that it doesn’t make room for DIFFERENT angles I WANT TO BE ONE WITH ALL Because we all are unique snowflakes Every unique snowflakes have one thing in common, which is Being a SNOWFLAKE coming from one source People are nothing more than eye level to me Nothing more, nothing less No superior and no inferior Peace, harmony, love, happiness, and enlightenment We think we know but we are far from knowing This is all the beginning We need to put all the pieces together and work the mind, body and spirit by connecting BACK to SELF SELF centers YOU SELF helps YOU understand others SELF has many offerings SELF is what it is And those in the exterior looking at YOU can appreciate or hate YOU because they view themselves as such! Life is beautiful is my decision YOU can continue to decide whether Life CAN BE beautiful.
