Birds of the Same Feather Flock Together

Birds of the same feather always flock together


A fool fools those who can be fooled
A thief roams the streets with his fellow thieves
The miserable saddens those who allow themselves to be miserable
The naive are played by those who are naive of karma
The materialism catches those who are materialistic
The disrespectful hurt those who have no self respect
The aggressively insecure intimidate those who are submissively insecure
The fake trick those who are inexperience of faking
The dumb roll with the most dumbest

If you are either happy, successful, humble, educated or anything positive; make sure you flock with the feather that's most positive and important to you. 

KNOW YOUR WORTH; You cannot exchange gold for stones, that's making a foolish loss. Positivity is always an addition(+)  not a subtraction (-).  If you are subtracting, don't be suprised if your life turns out to be mostly negative.

IMPATIENCE is the mother of all COMPROMISE, that's why people flock with the wrong people, don't let it catch you..

THE EYEZ are easily fooled, all that glitters isn't gold (things can be gold plated too), so carefully check things. As They say "FOOLS RUSH IN WHERE ANGELS FEAR TO TREAD."

NOTHING IS CONSTANT; Money comes and goes, the famous become infamous, friendships ends, beauty fades, people pass away etc. Do not rely on external things to make you happy, once they are gone you will awaken from your dream. Internal happiness is constant; the externall should just make you happiER. Humble yourself and know reality.

INEXPERIENCE is the mother of all REGRET. Life is a journey of experience, never make the same mistake twice. At best surround yourself with the most wise (listen and consider their counsel) so not to make mistakes at all.

THE GUT INSTINCT, if it doesn't feel right it probably isn't. You have either compromised too much for to little or you are blinded or you put ur happiness on external forces which are not constant or you are inexperienced in the ways of life.

ITS ALL IN THE MIND, remember to CONTROL IT, TRAIN IT and to ACT IT OUT and watch yourself rise to a different level in your life.

WAKE UP; a bird who flocks with the wrong birds wakes up sooner than later and flies to his kind of feather.

THE MESSAGE; a bird that flocks to you with patience, sincerity, passion and unconditional love is definitely for keeps because they are  worth more than gold.

Revelation: Curtain Call

Revelation
 
As I began to write, my mind paces back and forth;
With comprehension comes thoughts of discernment, henceforth;
Vivid pictures of togetherness, flashes before my eyes;
An epiphany reminds one "blindness was unwise";
Through ignorance we misconstrue intentions of sincerity;
As I reminisce, your touch was truly a rarity:
From here on, sweet love and care is the way onwards
No more fights, romance shall be straightforward;
Visions of you and I, so crystal clear;
Your unconditional love visible through a tear;
Through endless worries i can feel your pain;
Try to understand, we ain't all the same;
The only girl in the world, my expression to you;
Dreams of eternity nothing more than true;
To your hearts content, I will please you like no other, my way;
Talking, holding or loving you each and every day;
Actions speak louder than words so here I am on bended knees;
I pop the question with a nerve raking please;
These aren't just words nor is it flirtation;
Baby girl, forever more as my wife is the revelation;

The Fire In Your Soul

The Fire In Your Soul

The smile in your face
Moves the world with effortless grace
The twinkle in your eyes
Electrifies hearts to new highs
The warmth of your touch 
Wipes away fears so much
The good intentions you display
Uplifts those gone astray
So as you walk through the darkest night
Let your spirit be a beacon of light
Ignite the world ablaze
With unconditional happy days
You're a shinning star that makes 'YOU' whole
Simply because of the fire in your soul

The Pretence of Money

The Pretence Of Money

Money buy's
all you want
Fancy dresses
with matching shoes
Flashy cars
for all to see
A cosy home
to lazy in.                                                                 
A lov-er
of your dreams
A bunch of friends
to celebrate with
The stories told
are so sweet
And adventures taken
are a treat
 
Your are convinced
of ha-ppi-ness
But Something within
is gone astay
With all the possessions 
all the crowds                                                         
Still the soul
feels so foul
Eternal joy
has no price
Something you
just re-a-lised
 
The misery
is masked
With a smile
in it's place
And tears fall
behind closed doors                                                 
The loud laughs                                        
covers the pain
And items bought
heals the sorrow
The bonds made
are falsely hollow
So voices within
questions tomorrow
 
How lucky you are,
people say
So count your blessing's
as you pray
The bed you made 
is were lay
A comfort worth it                                                     
so you stay
With an empty soul
you act brave
A truth untold
for-ever a slave
So money's pretence
becomes your grave

Faces

The chosen one with a classified MISSION;

"At all cost" is the secretive AMBITION:

He prowls the streets with a sharp DAGGER;

An assassin with a smooth SWAGGER;

The Lion's claws concealed in gestures of KINDNESS;

He captures the victim with emotive methods of BLINDNESS;

Specialised in the art of maskin a FACE;

An agenda articulated with pure GRACE;

Known for uttering soothing WORDS;

Like the harmonic sounds of comforting BIRDS;

To the victim, "what a FRIEND";

To the gossip hungry, "a means to an END";

In realization, don't be SHAKEN;

In the end, he will be FORSAKEN;

The Truth of fact, call it LIFE;

How can one see those with a KNIFE?;

In the circle of existence, Sincerity is a BLISS

And bitter resentment most DISMISS;

In the dawn of maturity we grow WISE;

Now you've seen some have a DISGUISE;

The journey of life has surely GROWN;

All that is required is a BACKBONE;

Beware of those that STAGGER;

Call them the BACKSTABBERS.

The Human Nature of Love

The Human Nature Of Love

Human-beings were not created to be on their OWN

From birth, we yearn for love as if it’s our HOME

Loving relationships, morej joyful than TROUBLESOME

Like an addict, never to be on your LONESOME

Memories of the toss and turns, the sleepless NIGHTS

Whether it is excitement or worries, strangely it feels so RIGHT

Days of a single life, memories far GONE

Now an item, were you ever ALONE?

The stares, the giggles, the play, a kiss under the shinning MOON

Poetry in motion, will it be over too SOON?

Roller-coaster rides of ups and DOWNS

Cycles of Smiles and FROWNS

The burning desire, what a FEELING

The flames blazing heat, what a HEALING

A heavenly flight to cloud nine, high up ABOVE

Does anything compare to the human nature of LOVE?



Love is like any DRUG. It can heal, it takes you high, its ecstasy, its excitement, its attachment and its addicting. But yet such a serene and incomparable feeling can bring one to their knees.

THE TRUTH: Love with just JUST YOUR HEAD then your inclined to heartlessness ( or selfishness), stupidity, blindness through the eyes (all that glitters isn't gold), you'll lose the most precious (true diamonds), and you'll have a delusion of reality (materialism, appearance and others are not constant).
Love with JUST YOUR HEART then you'll be imprisoned with naivety, no self respect (selflessness) and you'll love stones instead of diamonds.

TRUE LOVE: Love with BOTH THE HEART AND HEAD, then blossom with fireworks of perfection. The heart's unconditional love (selflessness) combined with the head's conditional love (Selfishness) will create A NEW DIMENSION OF BLISS; a beautiful chemistry secure enough and worth the while.

THE MESSAGE: Don't be afraid to love because it's sweet, it's beautiful, nothing compares, life without it has no depth, it's human nature.  How will you know? Just trust your feelings. Dance and feel the heat with SOMEBODY WHO LOVES YOU!

Why Women Are Complex

WHY WOMEN ARE COMPLEX
 
 
Women are emotional by nature , they like or love with all their might.When she likes or loves a guy, they do it with all their Breath. Here are things us guys are blind to or ignore:
 
 
She DREAMS of u
 
She WAKES UP for u
 
She looks forward to SEEING YOU
 
She picks a DRESS 4 u
 
She does her MAKE UP 4 u
 
She does her HAIR 4 u
 
She THINKS of u in everything she does 
 
She TALKS about u
 
At night, she CANT SLEEP because of you...
 
All it takes is simple COMPLIMENTS, u look lovely, I like ur hair, I like your dress etc, and she will sigh thinking how it was all worth it. HOLD HER HAND when she's insecure, HUG when she's wants attention and ROMANCE her when shes jealous! Women are hardwork, if you want your end of the bargain then make sure you do your part. If you do, sit back and watch how she will do anything because her heart is filled with happiness. 
 
Yeah they play games either to make you feel as SHE FEELS or she wants u to STEP UP or she wants to know WHAT YOU ARE REALLY ABOUT. At the end of the day, they have alot 2 to lose, physically or emotionally, but you gain a lot!
 
Learn not to take HER TOO SERIOUS, at times show a "FUN UNDERSTANDING  PATIENT" side and other times LET HER KNOW what you don't like with seriousness.  
 
Yes as a man u need 2 be FIRM or PRINCIPLED and draw a line but pride don't prove anything then cause a NEGATIVE REACTION (Two wrongs don't make a right).
 
Women are LIKE THE WEATHER, one day SUNNY, the next RAINY, the other COLD and the next its THUNDER. 
 
If u want constant sunshine, open ur eyez and be on your toes.
If it's rainy, get ur umbrella and sing a song.
If it's cold, cuddle and warm her up. 
If it's thundery, give the storm (her) some space. 
In the end, her love for you will calm her down.
 
CHOSE WHICH BATTLES YOU FIGHT, NOT ALL ARE FOUGHT THE SAME OR NEED FIGHTING AT ALLl!

Yeah she aint perfect, so ain't you, but she will take care of you perfectly if you PLAY YOUR CARDS RIGHT!Don't get mad if some next dude has ur woman, he did what you wasn't doing.
 
 
But to be fair NOT ALL WOMEN are angels, some are selfish and unappreciative. Am talking about good women. Choose which one is worth fighting for!

Live Love Life

LIVE LOVE LIFE

LIFE, a precious gift we all SHARE
We have no time to stand and STARE

Forget the heavy burdens on your SHOULDERS
The Anger that turns you into a SCOLDER

Eradicate the pain that makes a heart NUMB
The loss, questioning a brighter future to COME

Free your mind from all suffering that makes you loss HOPE
And frustrations challenging one's ability to COPE

Tears can run your deep ocean DRY
So let go of the misfortunes that makes you wonder WHY?

Worries you should not BARE...
We are all in need of those who truly CARE

Leave fears behind at a place called YESTERDAY
GOODBYE to the past, and here comes TODAY

So cheers to a long life and a JOYFUL ONE
To those we call friends, the honest BLISSFUL ONES.


3 things needed in life; 
A wishbone (dreams),
A backbone (strength) 
A funnybone (sense of humour). 

EXCESS WEIGHT (negativity) IS GAINED THROUGH LIFE's JOURNEY, SO LOSE WEIGHT SPIRITUALLY . Destroy all you have built, and build anew from the root/foundation of the real you and you shall be reborn. Free your mind, be shapeless, formless and free spirited (as you think, so you shall become).

And most importantly, SMILE! 

:  )

LIVE IT
learn to LOVE IT
because everything IS LIFE

What Will Make Her Secure

What Will Make Her Secure?

The tears that have become her nightly doze of Sleep
Her antidote is a husband who CARES
The heavy burdens she carries alone make her Weep
Her supporting hand is a husband who is FAIR

The painful worries of infidelity begets the future to appear bleak
Her balm is a husband who exudes TRUST
The unconditional love unappreciated with a blow on the cheek
Her true worth is a husband whose character does NOT DISGUST

The absence of affection's blazing flames
Her yearning is a husband who sweeps her of her FEET
The verbal abuse that makes her spirit to feel lame
Her healing is a husband whose words are SWEET

The wishing of a family unit as a lone mother
Her bliss is a husband who never quit HOME
The constant hurt of second place to another
Her mind's comfort is a husband who does NOT ROAM

The burning desire to be admired like a Queen
Her thirst's quench is a husband who steps up as KING
The broken promises, that she has always seen
Her security now is a husband who upholds the vows of his wedding RING

What a Woman

What A Woman

Woman, there is more to her than her lovely lady curves

Woman, confidence and wisdom is all visible in her swerve

Woman, her actions never contracting the sense of maturity

Woman, her past has made her grow rather than creating insecurities

Woman, assumptions rarely clouds her vision

Woman, hearsay or opinions is never her final decision

Woman, she’s the of essence of the word “independence”,

Woman, mutual love and respect is her dependence

Woman, massaging her ego on anyone's expense is not her way

Woman, doubt and insecurities arise but  extreme games she dont play

Woman, courtesy is never lost for her pride

Woman, she rarely has anything to hide

Woman, she lends a hand to forgiveness

Woman, benefit of doubt is her quickness

Woman, as for girls they are opposite to her swagger 

Woman, because her kind never staggers

Woman, anyone can wear her fashion

Woman, what makes a woman is humility and passion

Woman, she doesn't come across as crass 

Woman, her mere presence says what a lady of class 

Woman, she leads the rest to the dream of a man

Woman, she is simply called “what a woman”
