When I fee I'm rich, I see someone richer.
When I feel I'm poor, I see someone poorer.
When I feel I'm a poet, I read a real rhymer.
When I feel like an idiot, I look in the mirror.
When I am cheerful: “enjoy it, while it lasts.”
When I am cheerless: “bare it, it will not last.”
There's never a bad time for introspection

His voice,
Was like a relaxing Sunday morning.
And just like the day,
I couldn't have it on replay.
- Rani Olivia
a deep desire fires hope or despair
choose wisely
what you set  your heart on
What if healing comes from tears?
And it'll be harder to know
What's pure and fake

What if a blessing comes from rain drops?
If the rain makes you sick,
Would you play with it and seek blessings?

What if sleepless nights are what it takes
To know He's always near?
But you take so much pills
And abuse your body
The Temple of the Holy Spirit

What if dreams only come true
When you let go of things you hold so much?
And at times, need to give up your own
For the sake of others' lives.

What if your greatest fears and pains
Are the keys for greatest thirst this world can't satisfied?
And what if every failure and storms
Are the disguises of the *love and mercy of God?
Just what ifs.

The Declaration of Friendship is an idea I have heard from other friends of mine and that I am building on. You could call this a sociology lesson maybe?
We will start out with a base line of Stranger Danger most people in the universe would fall under this category because we do not know most people in the world we fear them. We fear the unknown

now we have what I would call the acquaintance level we will start off with negative and then go positive.

Acquaintance Negative is someone who knows you and you don't really like each other or get along very well but you will tolerate it.

Until it goes to Dislike Status where you cant stand each other and very few people fall under this level for most people.

Acquaintance Positive is someone you know who you enjoy being around when its easy for you to see them and some times cool stuff happens sometimes it doesn't. I would say a majority of people would fall under this level. Its not a bad place to be but its not the top level of a social relationship either.

Friendship this is the level that all other levels build on how do we define it? Who is a “True Friend”? How do we reach this level?
It's a ship that gets us through the ocean of life when that wave of doubt or unfortunate events falls upon us and we see no way out.

When we're single and need someone to spend those dateless nights with.

When we find ourselves in situations that only a simple call can fix.

When we're bored and want to just laugh at things no one else understands.

When we're old and sad, but hey, even then life is not too bad when you have friendship to get you past-on to the harbor where joy will forever last.
Wrote this after a Valentine's Day spent single, but with good friends by my side.

A good friend is like a good bra,
hard to find,
very comfortable,
supportive,
and always close to the Heart.

I'll have the last word
The last breath
I want to be
The last thing
On their minds.
And when I die
I'll leave behind
Words no one
Will ever forget.
Do we breathe the same air twice?
Do we breathe the same carbon dioxide back into our lungs, and do our lungs  hate the air and that's why we exhale?
When people tell us the inhale the future, and exhale the past, wouldn't we just inhale the past again?
Is this why it's so hard for me to get over you?
Am I the lungs running away from how I feel for you?
Because I ran towards the past once.
Today, actually.
I feel worse.
I feel like all I am breathing is carbon dioxide.
And it's killing me.
I love you, but you **** me.
probably doesn't make sense but it does to me so whatever
