Happy Friday,
Damn we're fully in full swing of 2009. Time is swiftly passing by. All the plans and goals put forth, hopefully we're still in deep concentrate with keen awareness. Kids always complain that time passing far too slow. For adults the world is rapidly passing by MUCH too fast. I find myself being more appreciative, and really basking in the 'here now' moments, even the bumpy roads.
To be a part of a universe where we can matter, and perhaps make a difference is really liberating. Realizing that its not always about one person. To play a part, to seek answers to the unknown questions, that can present themselves on a daily basis. I speak often to mediocrity, to just accept what life offers you. I don't believe purpose is aligned that way. Finding one's soul purpose for being here, is the hardest task for most people. The percentage for those who know exactly, what their purpose is, tends to be very small.
You can look at someone who is a jack of all trades and a master of known. If you dissect that, the talent is there, it's already acknowledged, you must hone in on that incessant gift that you possess, and it lies within you. No happen stance, easy is never the road that gets you to the greatest achievements. Complex and angst, gets the richest rewards. Accolades that come easy, never last for long, and it's only a temporary fix. With struggle come wisdom, and layers to be rewarded in your life's tapestry.
Questions will arise, as they often do. Dwell in the moments, where curiosity is rendered. To whom much is given, MUCH is always going to be required. Reaffirming the legacy of Michael Jackson in recent weeks. Our nation mourned together. I came away wanting to do more, a need to be larger than life, to really find my village, and to inspire myself and others. I know the road is very long, and no one gets there alone. I need help! and I know with vulnerability come cracks, but those cracks are the veins in which nourishment and creativity pumps through, it breeds life to the connection of other's in a universe in which we live. We are sent here to help, and aid as need be.
What are you doing with your life?

As I watch my father in his finally hours, I wonder how different his life could have been if he had followed his heart. His story is unique, inspiring and at the same time a tragedy. He fell in love in high school with a girl who was of a different religion than his family, he continued to see her and proposed to her just prior to joining up to serve in world war II. His family rebuked him for religious reasons and he cancelled his engagement to please the family and went off to war. He came back and married a good Baptist girl. After 52 yrs of a "good Marriage" my mother died. He runs back into his high school sweetheart (her husband died years early) only to establish this blissful relationship as a friend with her. I have seen love before, but never like his love for her. He has asked her to marry him two times now and she refuses. She refuses, but says he is and always has been the love of her life. The only thing I can think is that she is paying him back for denying her over his selected faith and family. She strings him along, and denies him his true love, even as his health fails. Lessons of life teach us -Love can be cruel. Life is too short, and only self determination will set us free.
