Present, Past, or, Future, What Teaches the Most?

I have enjoyed life to much. It has gotten to the point that I am starting to live to fast. I do not slow down enough to realize what I am enjoying while I enjoy it. I have to say that for the one who lives to fast they don't remember what a slow moment feels like, and the one who rushes has no mind for the present only for the future; then the past will be forgotten and all that will be left to see is what can't be confirmed.

If one person cannot see the present as what they are supposed to enjoy then all they will see is a dreaded or expectant future. Nothing will seem worth the time of the person with a life; the person who has fewer expectations for themselves in the future will have more joy in the present. That would be if they can look past the faults of an imperfect life the inability to prevent mistakes that come with a imperfect personality. what will happen cannot be stopped by planning ahead, and what has happened cannot be changed by ignoring the past; though the present reflect the best and worst of both sides with the potential to be influenced by the past and the ability to change the future.

the most amazing part of life that can be experienced is the present. Not because of the idea that the present is what we must experience; but because the present is what we have to use in order make new experiences to and learn from them in order to be something more for ourselves in the future. If we choose not to use present experiences and to learn from them in order to become better people for ourselves in the future then what use do we have for being who we are?

Flip Me off the World

He’s fallen down the waterfall
She’s climbing off the sky high horse
The laughter as clear as a bell
The roar deep as the biggest bass drum

I want you to do me one favor
So I may see these sights
Flip me off the world
Throw me into the reaches of space

I want to see Saturn’s rings
To be able to view Pluto’s ice
I want to find life holding planets

So I ask for one favor
Flip off the world

Maybe I’ll discover a Jedi
Or perhaps I’ll find little green men
Perhaps I will be dissected
Or maybe become a mortal god

I don’t care about the risk
I just want to ask you one favorable request
Flip me off the world

The Flawed Mans Cry

He follows a road no one can follow
He falls to his knees and he cry’s

He shouts for tomorrow
Yesterday won’t seem to die

His hysterical screams
And the waterfall of tears
Cause people to stop and stare

We can’t come to grips
With nightmares he can’t share
He’s laughed at by friends
And he’s taunted by foes

While all he can do is just cry
The fears of a flawed man
Work to cause him pain
As he struggles and strive to find his way

He follows a road no one can follow
He falls to his knees and he screams

“Can’t anybody help me?
Won’t anyone rescue me from this hell?
I seek and I search
I scream and I cry
The pain is becoming too much to bare

I want to end this
I want to something to break
The ties to a past I can’t release
But I can’t just let go
And I seem to forget
The fears of a flawed man are taking me over

So I cry the flawed mans cry
I scream to a world that doesn’t care
They’ve thrown me straight to hell
A hell that just won’t seem to end


They all let me fall
I don’t want to die
And now I must pull myself out

I say good night but not goodbye
I failed and so I cry
But I will fight to try again
As I cry the flawed mans cry

So I cry the flawed mans cry

So Where is Here and When is Now

So the people move
Everything goes about its life
Worrying
Being carefree
And yet I don’t feel like I am among everything
So out there
Nothing makes sense
I feel I’m between here and there
I’m lost in the now and when
So I can’t trust myself with others
And in turn others with me
I fly through thoughts
And I get drenched in brain storms
Yet I can never figure out why I feel so set apart
Perhaps I’m just over reacting
So I don’t know where I stand
And I don’t know what time I stood there
Maybe I’m in the air
Whatever the case I must ask
Where is here and when is now
And why the persons mind is so single minded in so many ways

Bonds and Love by Friends and Family

Friends among friends
The love of those whom have known each other for years

It’s amazing;
The subtleties that exist between those who are close
It extraordinary;
The connection that forms between people

The times seem too good to be true
And the beauty of the relationship often goes unnoticed
So when they finally disappear
There just doesn’t seem to be anything to fill the void that opens in the soul

Such a scary realization when a family member disappears
When they leave you in the world of mortality
There just doesn’t seem to be any drug to make the sadness go away
The broken heart can only heal over time

Family among family
It’s different the connection of those who were raised together
It’s beautiful and serene

No fights, no bouts of disrespectful words
Nothing can completely cover the feelings that exist
Or existed between brother and brother
Or mother and child
Or even husband and wife

The fate of those moments that showed what love was like
Was to create memories of what should exist between family, and friends
It is true beauty to create the bonds between people
A beauty that can be seen, felt, smelled, tasted, heard, and related to
Only the mortal world could be so simple,
As to believe in love and the bond between people

Moving On and Finding the Way

time passes by
and people move on
living lives that never cease moving forward

no backwards steps
just a one way ticket to the next step of their life
not many want to recognize this
even though they all live it

ignoring the facts of life,
gives so much freedom
lifts so much pressure

no fear of the future forcing itself upon them
no predictions necessary
just a present time and place to focus the mind on

finally the freedom to plan the future
even though there is no guarantee of what will come
daily routines done for a time

just the time of the present to relax in
and the quiet of reminiscence to calm them

embrace the idea that everything comes in time
but only live in the time that has already come
don't focus on what might come
that is unnecessary
they'll find they're own future
and they will embrace it

Successes and Slip-ups

Celebration for a graduation
Punishment for a mistake

We love to live in success, and spotlights;
And hate to be seen as failures

Which causes a question
Why don't we always try our hardest?

Constantly beating ourselves up
Just because we didn't do something right

does it seem right,
to be so harsh on ones self?

We may not always be able to try again
But can't we try new ideas and learn?

Perhaps we deserve what we do to ourselves
Perhaps we feel victimized by others

But our successes make us so happy
They are achievements that we did

Why should all those bad thoughts and failures weigh us down?
Forget them they don't make you feel good

Just think of all the people who are proud of you for what went right
Think about what you've done to make yourself happy

if the lives of people are good then they are successful
then they can proceed with more successes
