10:56 AM - Bird life in Mexico- funny family squabble pictorial..
Current mood: dorky
Category: Art and Photography

A rather peaceful sunrise in Mexico Except this bird Couple...
the one.. i believe it was a female, was squawking to high heaven..



The bird on the top leaned down as chirped back
please shut up .. and watch the sunrise...



That was all it took.... the bottom bird chirped back shut the f&*% UP...
You don't tell me to shut up... how dare you.,...
who do you think you are chirping to?
( Of course this is all in bird chirp... ( i studied this in biology in '77.)



Then to top bird got tired of this noise and took matters in wing...
He had to keep the peace in the quiet courtyard, this all took place in..
He dropped down a branch and landed on the birds head...



I believe this helped put his point of view in place...
because the bird then just stopped and sat back and enjoyed the sunrise....

9:38 AM - i read this today on relationships...
Current mood: cheerful
Category: Romance and Relationships

EVERY relationship has a cycle. In the beginning,
you fell in love with your spouse. You
anticipated their call, wanted their touch, and
liked their idiosyncrasies.

Falling in love with your spouse wasn't hard. In
fact, it was a completely spontaneous
experience. You didn't have to DO anything.
That's why it's called "falling" in love - because
it's happening TO YOU.

People in love sometimes say, "I was swept off my
feet." Think about the imagery of that
expression. It implies that you were just
standing there; doing nothing, and then something
came along and happened TO YOU.

Falling in love is easy. It's a passive and
spontaneous experience.

But after a few years of marriage, the euphoria
of love fades. It's the natural cycle of EVERY
relationship. Slowly but surely, phone calls
become a bother (if they come at all), touch is
not always welcome (when it happens), and your
spouse's idiosyncrasies, instead of being cute,
drive you nuts.

The symptoms of this stage vary with every
relationship, but if you think about your
marriage, you will notice a dramatic difference
between the initial stage when you were in love
and a much duller or even angry subsequent stage.

At this point, you and/or your spouse might start
asking, "Did I marry the right person?" And as
you and your spouse reflect on the euphoria of
the love you once had, you may begin to desire
that experience with someone else. This is when
marriages breakdown. People blame their spouse
for their unhappiness and look outside their
marriage for fulfillment.

Extramarital fulfillment comes in all shapes and
sizes. Infidelity is the most obvious. But
sometimes people turn to work, church, a hobby, a
friendship, excessive TV, or abusive substances.

But the answer to this dilemma does NOT lie
outside your marriage. It lies within it.

I'm not saying that you couldn't fall in love
with someone else. You could. And TEMPORARILY
you'd feel better. But you'd be in the same
situation a few years later. Because (listen
carefully) THE KEY TO SUCCEEDING IN
MARRIAGE IS NOT FINDING THE RIGHT PERSON; IT'S
LEARNING TO LOVE THE PERSON YOU FOUND.

SUSTAINING love is not a passive or spontaneous
experience. It'll NEVER just happen to you. You
can't "find" LASTING love. You have to "make" it
day in and day out. That's why we have the
expression "the labor of love." Because it takes
time, effort, and energy. And most importantly,
it takes WISDOM. You have to know WHAT TO DO to
make your marriage work.

M ake no mistake about it. Love
is NOT a mystery. There are specific things you
can do (with or without your spouse) to succeed
with your marriage.

Just as there are physical laws of the universe
(such as gravity), there are also laws for
relationships. Just as the right diet and
exercise program makes you physically stronger,
certain habits in your relationship WILL make
your marriage stronger. It's a direct cause and
effect. If you know and apply the laws, the
results are predictable - you can "make" love.

Marriage Fitness a step-by-step system for making
and maintaining love in your marriage. And the
program works for any marriage even if only one
spouse does it.

So what's your first step?

10:56 PM - Number 6 of the 10 POWERS OF UNCONDITIONAL LOVE AND RELATIONSHIP
Current mood: awake
Category: Romance and Relationships

The Power of Passion.

Passion ignites love and keeps it alive.
Lasting passion does not come through physical attraction alone,
it comes from deep commitment, enthusiasm,
interest and excitement.
Passion can be recreated by recreating past experiences
when you felt passionate.
Spontaneity and surprises produce passion.
The essence of love and happiness are the same;
all we need to do is to live each day with passion.

8:03 AM - WHen i met you..
Current mood: cynical
Category: Romance and Relationships

another quick thought... no editing...sorry

It was suppose to be fun...
it was suppose to be easy....
it was to be just a convenient relationship...
you were ready....
i was not...
i created a relationship thru words and images...
i created the passion with my images of love...
i manufactured the image of "OUR LOVE"
thru words running on poems and photos....
the canvas was my heart.. but the heart i built...
not the one that is actually there....
i built and created the Love....
and when i stopped .... it stopped...
for it was not real...

but heck it was fun while we danced in the light...
the flames were built with kindling of thoughts ..
of what it would be like... to be in love....
and the fire went out when the kindling was found out..
what fun it was...
but it had to end ...

When a foundation is built of false premise...
it will crumble ... it is enviable....

shadows on the wall are reflectional images from my mind...
not the reality that it really is...



ok thats all...

10:10 AM - 5 principles for being happy... sorta 5 well actually 3
Current mood: accomplished

Five Principles for Happiness in 2007




You don't need me to tell you what will make you happy --
--------------only you know that truth.-----------
ok ill ramble a bit ...

Principle 1:
Give Yourself a Break- you know where i am going with this one.
its the shoulda couda ramba... i see so many dance this in life.

We all tell ourselves the story of the one that got away.
you can't move forward if you spend time focusing
on what you shoulda-woulda-coulda done in 2006 or before.
It's over, and its time to move on.
The fastest way I know to do this is to write
all of your regrets down on paper...
If is money...
Make a list of all your personal and financial if-onlys...

For example, "If only I had saved more money.
If only I hadn't quit that job.
If only I hadn't taken the job I have."
You get the idea....

After reading the list aloud to yourself, for 1 hour... really!! it works..
SO after you do this.-get rid of it.
Let it all go by literally burning the list (safely).
Now you're ready for a fresh start -- a new beginning.

Principle 2: Get Connected with Your Truth
The hardest thing to do is be honest with yourself.
Asking yourself some key questions
will lead you to some amazing discoveries,
and possibly motivate you to do what it takes
to create the life you envision for yourself.

I suggest writing your (honest) answers to the following questions

What makes you happy at work?

What makes you happy at home?
What makes you happy with your friends and family?
What makes you happy when you're by yourself?
What do you love to do?
What would you do with your life today
if you weren't afraid of failure?

What's not working in your life?

What are you currently doing that prevents you
from experiencing joy?

What's working in your life?
Who's not working in your life?
Who in your life is subtracting value from and adding misery to it?

Can you fix any of these relationships,
or should you let them go from your life?

What relationships are working in your life?

If we were getting together one year from today,
what would have to happen for you
to be able to tell me that you now have more joy in your life?


You'll find that by putting your answers down on paper,
they'll become clear more quickly and the actions
you need to take more obvious and easier to initiate.

Principle 3: Stop Judging Yourself

Be nicer to yourself . Many people talk to themselves
in a way they would never accept from a stranger,
friend, or loved one.
If this describes you,
try stopping the negative conversations
you have with yourself immediately.RIGHT NOW=.... i hear this all the time.

For one week, simply commit to saying
"stop it" when you think a negative
thought about yourself. If you're in the habit
of saying negative things to yourself,
you'll find this is one of the most difficult exercises
you'll ever do.
Carry a notepad with you and make a mark
each time you catch yourself thinking negatively.
You'll find that as the days go by,
your negative thinking can quickly be reduced.

Principle 4: Stop Judging Others -- ill add this later




Principle 5 : -- ill post this later

Current mood: energetic
Category: Romance and Relationships

The Power of Thought.

Love begins with my thoughts....
I become what I think about....
Loving thoughts create loving experiences and loving relationships...
Affirmations changes my beliefs and thoughts
about myself and others...
If I want to love someone,
I must consider their needs and desires....
Thinking about what I want will attract that...
Thinking about...
or concentrating about that which I must have in a person,
will attract that..

and thinking about it will help me recognize her when she arrives..
