Most times when I meet friends, mostly guys our friendship transcends into the next phase when he comes up with "Please can you write a poem about me"? This of course is after I've told him I love poetry...my next answer then goes like ; "I don't even know you enough to do that"
Then he says "just the little you know will do"
Okay, I'll say, then put something up about our short term relationship that will soon turn to pages in my journal. After dismissal.
But of all my numerous 'write-about-me poems', one was particular as I had to write this poem for this sweet friend just ON our first date...and i can say it was a relieving one. At times one experience tells how the whole thing will go, and simply because just that one night went wrong, the rest apparently will.
I'll like to share few of this writing escapades of mine in a short while.
Starting with this, dedicated to this dear friend who thinks I care more than i hurt contrary to my own opinion.
YOU
In You
All I see is You
You
Y - Your smile that reserves a question that
makes me want to
O - Opt for a second or real version of you,
which i can't just see in
U- U, just not yet.
Just like I see, I feel a speech being rendered
in my heart for you.
A speech simply put like; I Like You
And I know as the times roll pass us
I'll sure conclude my assumptions
But for now
I pretend, assume that - I just like you
Yes! Just for now
I pretend to know you
And i really mean you
I mean the REAL YOU
Still, i battle 'the you'within me with muse
This is humorous: "An orgasm a day, keeps the doctor away"....LOL
Have fun.

CONFESSIONS…..
I have some confessions to make...Hehee not that bad though.
I have been feeling miserable lately
Got separated from my addiction to coffee some time ago, but I’m gradually getting addicted again….depression?
I am so loving ‘blame it’ ‘dead and gone’ and ‘cookie jar’ lately too, been wondering why they all share same theme.
I check Google more than any website, perhaps checking for something I don’t even knows yet.
Within the past 3weeks, four guys asked if I was into ladies, what! Hell no…okay ‘cos they think I don’t care enough for guys, but that doesn’t mean I dig ladies instead, does it?
Liking my new look
I am enjoying my new 30GB I pod…yikes!
I am still re-reading ‘redeeming love’ by Francine Rivers. After reading a chapter for 2weeks I clearly have a reason why I am re-reading it over
Should I share? cos I wn lrn 2 sty awy frm ov ----‘wrong move it is’
Something has been telling me.
I am really fighting an addiction ---not coffee
I am writing a poem on coffee, but I can’t pick the lead again ‘cos it’s going to two pages. Don’t know if it’s still romance, hate, hurt, life and okay maybe all of ‘em
I am preparing for a crazy party...lol
I think Facebook is getting boring.
I found this “An orgasm a day keeps the doctor away” and I think it’s awkward.
Yes, I love………..
ME!

It Matters...
It matters to be born
Because it’s the only bond that gives
A definite force and reason to live
It matters to live
Because out of life comes the real files to living
It matters to think
Because thoughts yield great efforts
Efforts that influence the heart
It matters to sink
Because below the deep are messages
That gives meaning to an assuring destiny
It matters to strive for greater heights
For great heights yield success
It matters to love, even when it denies one the true beauty of it and causes aches during the rainy and stormy days

HOW TO BE GENUINELY NICE
This is a short note to the general public to perform good forms of kindness that leave little room for santimoniousness. Here are my favourites:
Buy a packet of cigars and leave it behind the reception of a maternity ward, for all the new fathers
Hail a taxi. When it stops, get the driver to roll down the window. Give him a Mars bar then run away.
Buy a copy of a daily, then give it back to the person who sold it to you.
Smile at people
Pop a sugar cube next to an ants' nest
If you are a man, put the loo seat down. If you are a woman, put it up
Pat a dog
Swap places with the person behind you in the queue
Pay for a stranger's coffee
Hug someone
What do y'all think?

The 90/10 Principle by Stephen Covey
Hey, check this
10% of life is made up of what happens to you. 90% of life is decided by how react. What does this mean?
We really have no control over 10% of what happens to us. We cannot stop the car from breaking down. The plane will be late arriving, which throws our whole schedule off. A driver may cut us off in traffic. We have no control over this 10%. The other 90% is different. You determine the other 90%.
Watch out for the next phase...

BE LIKE THE PALM TREE
If you need some encouragement today, take another look at the palm tree.
You can cut it but you cannot kill it. The nutrients that most trees need to survive can be found just below the bark, so when you cut them they die. But not the palm tree; its life comes from its heart so it thrives even under attack. Do not let surface issues derail you and do not give into short term thinking. Stay focused on what God promised you!
It bends but it will not break. Tropical storms can blow most trees away, but not the palm tree. It is resilient. It bends all way to the ground, yet when the storm is over it straightens up again and is actually stronger. You were made to been, not break. God promises to give you’… strength that endures the unendurable and spills over into you…’ Colossians 1:11. God’s willingness to promote you is always in direct proportion to your ability to endure.
Its depth exceeds its height. While the roots of the average tree to go a few feet under, the roots of the palm tree go deep in search of water. David said, ‘As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you…’ (Psalm 42:1) God’s plan for you is to go deep; Stay connected to Him, and never be uprooted, barren or blown away. If you are facing trouble right now do not ask “Why me?” instead ask “What do you want me to learn?” Then trust God and grow stronger through it!
For some weeks now I’ve longed to experience some form of freedom – a different and special one, I searched and in that scripture alone I’ve I found it, so I decided to share.
Remember good thoughts brings good decisions, think on what you’ve read then ask the right question and follow the instruction then see your blessings before you.
Believe it or loose it!
Quote of the note: “Trouble never leaves you the same, it either leaves you a better or a bitter person”.

Motivate inexpensively...Just thinking
Hey there, how’re you doing lately?
Just been thinking on these things lately
Check.
Does money motivate people to work harder? Answer this question for yourself by picturing in your mind the hardest working people you know and judging whether they perform as they do because of the money they make.
Whatever your conclusion, the more important question may be: Can you motivate without spending a lot of money?
I’m out…your comments matter.
Take care of you.
