Tangle

Sometimes i wonder, are we living our lives?
We are all so caught up in the tangles of our current lives,
Dreaming about the future too much that we,
Have forgotten, all together, to live, right now.

Isn't living about the present,
Isn't the future about hope, but not forgetting today?

Sometimes when i see you,
I see the strong side of me
The side of me that i wanted to be

I'm not sure if you have seen me, really
I'm not sure if we ever see each other bare, as we are
Without ambition, career paths, materialism, and pride

If we both were to put it all down,
would we still be together?
I wonder

What if love, was all it takes,
and those who criticized were the unfortunate ones?

Safety net

This crazy crazy schedule is just insane. Haven't been writing in a while, but this time, its because I hardly have the time for it. It's tiring, no doubt about it. No matter what you believe how far this will bring you in your future, your body is trying very hard to keep up with your ambition.

But this crazy crazy schedule has given me something other things has not been able to. It makes me treasure the little moments more. 15 minutes of a good chat with my family is worth the rush home, even if i need to continue working at home. Coming home at 3am from the office on Friday night is worth it if it can give me quality time with my man on Saturday. Not going to church is worth it when it gives me an hour of car-chat with my dad from the airport. It's heavenly earth coming home at 10 and to have 2 hours of tv and free time.

But most of all, it is in this time, you see, truly, how much your loved ones support you even when you dont have time for them. They watch you work, keep you strong and believe that you can always do anything, anything. When you say in your heart you cant take this, he told you that you can. when you tell them you're tired, they say that ur potential stretches more than this. its true, family and friends are like a safety net. Dont be afraid to fall back when you cant stand no longer.

For the good safety net will bounce back and make you stand, again.
