I Ain't Afraid To Be Me.

I ain't got to be
What nobody else want me to be
And I ain't afraid to be
What I wanna be
So does that make me
A rebel?
A revolutionary?
Well then so it be
That's cool with me
Cause I refuse to live life
On terms that don't satisfy me
And I refuse to answer to anybody
Who wants me to be
"More like them" and
"Less like me"
You see
I am my own man
Built by the hand of God
And so to not be me
Would be quite odd
It's by his hand
That I can accomplish all
And with His strength
I'm able to rise when I fall
It is through His gift
That i have vision to see
That's why I ain't got to be what nobody else want me to be
And I ain't afraid to be
What I wanna be

Found Only In Love

“To love means to commit oneself without guarantee, to give oneself completely in the hope that our love will produce love in the loved person.”

Isn’t that some truth?! The scariest thing about loving someone is letting go. Letting go of our pride, letting go of our insecurities, letting go of all those devices we use to protect ourselves for fear of not being loved. Ironic that the very things that do not allow us to love fully are the same things that we hold on to for fear of not being loved…

I have loved before. I have opened my heart up and given it to another only to have it, what I thought at the time, broken.
Was I wrong!
You see in allowing myself to ‘lower all my defenses”, even if only 20% I strengthened my heart and prepared it so it would be ready for the moment where I found what I was truly looking for – the amplification of emotion and energy, of strength and self found only when giving fully. Found Only In Love.

To steal a phrase from D. H. Lawrence
“I am in love - and, my God, it is the greatest thing that can happen to a man. I tell you, find a woman you can fall in love with. Do it. Let yourself fall in love. If you have not done so already, you are wasting your life.”

So if you haven’t been there – I strongly suggest it. If you have been there, get back whenever you can. If you are there, my hope for you is continued dwelling in the neighborhood. Wherever you stand believe that their is immense power in this world that we all have access to... Found Only In Love.
Just a thought.
Bless
Mark

Breath. Believe. Become...

Be.

It's quite amazing to think of all the things that had to go right in order for you to wake up this morning. I mean your heart had pump, your lungs execute gas exchange, your blood flow and so on and so forth. The fact that you are up is reason enough to give thanks. BREATH and know that you are alive and along with life comes the ability to do whatever it is you set out to do. Many will tell you otherwise but those are probably people who either don't have enough faith in themselves and the Universal power that we all have complete access to or those who simply choose to not pursue their own personal legend and in turn feel it necessary to persuade you to abandon your pursuit. If you BELIEVE you can do, so start doing like you believe. Only in doing like you believe will you be able to BECOME what or who you desire and deserve to be. Only when your doing what you ought to do, fulfilling your purpose, your passion, your positive intention will you be satisfied with your pursuit. Only when you are BEING can you transcend the pitfalls of "try".
Breath. Believe. Become...B(e)
Just a thought.
Bless

Poem - Sex For Love. ©

It's a sad truth.
It's why I wear a white ribbon.


She spreads her legs in search of love
Waiting for him to say those words.
But he plunges deep into her
Like her screams he hasn't heard.
She gives him her body in hopes that he
Will trade her for a piece of his soul.
But he has no ambition of uniting their hearts
He only has one goal.
To come and go and come again
Never to her to commit
And he'll say "I love you baby" sometimes
Even though he treats her like shit.
She let him be the first man
To ever touch her there
In fact he's been the only man
But he doesn't seem to care.
He slaps her in the face at night
Accusing her of not being true
Of course he himself smells like alcohol and sex
Cause he didn't shower after he screwed.
She knows that things will get better
So she never thinks to go
Until he comes home way too drunk one night
And delivers that fatal blow...

My Birthday Response. Thank you.


I wanted to take a moment to let all of you who wished me blessing on my birthday how I feel, where I'm coming from and where I'm headed...

All the facebook posts, emails, notes, text messages and voicemails not to mention the in person wishes and even stuff sent in a mailbox (yeah I know people still do that sort of thing). Wow.

I have worked very hard to create the launch pad in which I will soon be blasting off from and I want to share that as hard as my battle may be, as high as the mountain may sometimes seem I know that I am blessed.

Most of you don't know that I've been laid out on my back and left for dead on more than one occasion. Literally. Then I questioned God, and more my life.
Now I know that those times that I spent laid out on my back were only to teach me where to look for help and for the blessings that would rain down from "somewhere up there".

I grew up in religion but a religious man I am not - I am; however, a cat who strives to be spiritual, to do more good than bad and who strives to speak the truth as often and as boldly as I can. I don't know many things but I do know a few and the one thing I know right now is that I've got a lot of work to do.

The wishes, the blessings, the words of encouragement. Thank you all who shared. Don't think that they are any less powerful than they are.
To my inner circle, well you already know what I say cause I’ve already said it.

To my family - good decisions, bad decisions, questionable decisions. Thank you for loving me regardless.
To my inner circle, well you already know what I say cause I’ve already said it.

Ps As the clock struck midnight and "my day" arrived, I spent it in a way that a few years ago I could have only wished for, a few weeks ago would have never know and now looking back would have spent no other way.
