…and that’s the TRUTH

When you got nothing but time, the only thing you got are dreams.
Locked up in that cell, I realized I had to turn my life around.
I had to make the nightmare go away.
I had to be strong inside and out.
I had to build a new dream, which started as survival and grew into a passion.

But I had to get there alone. (NO PROMISES!)
All I had was me. (NO HANDOUTS!)

You gotta dream your future before you can build your future.
Otherwise, life’s just living you.

Today I’m strong. Tomorrow I’ll be STRONGER.
….and THAT’S THE TRUTH!!!

Junior the Lion Cub

Encouragement. Motivation. And inspiration at its best. 😀

Despite the inevitable bleak outlook of his situation, this little lion cub WILL NOT let his new physical impairment break his desire to press-on, nor his will to stay alive! Paralyzed from the waist down after a brutal buffalo stampede, Junior, the little lion cub, is resilient and defiant to the end. He chooses to go down swinging. He will not bury his head in the sand like an ostrich!

Personal “One-on-One” Guitar Time Cut Short

Jamaica Farewell

…a catchy & classic song hook as well as one-of-a-kind old-school music video; one of my favs! 😀

from the one and only Harry Belafonte!:

I’m sad to say I’m on my way
I won’t be back for many a day
My heart is down, my head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town 😦

Nda

What’s the Time?

I Want to Learn More!

“I want to learn MORE!!!
With nothing but the BRIGHTNESS of MILESTONE MOON!!!” 😀

UGH-UGHK-UGHK!!!

10/15/2011: almost had a fire breakout in our oven…consequentially inhaled a lot of smoke from it and smoke doesn’t feel all too courteous to allow the fresh air from outside to come in and take over! feels no pressure in taking its merry-precious-little-time to leave…meanwhile “ugh-ughk-ughk!!!”

1 person dies and….

harsh reality. a little tough to accept but true… 😦

1 person dies and 1 million cry. 1 million die and no one cries 😕
