DISCLAIMER: I just let the words flow. Appreciate the story, don't try to make it a situation that is truly non-existing. It's called poetry and stories for a reason.
Baby You & I could have been beautiful, kinetic energy so rare I would call it unusual
You chose to walk the road where you did what you had to do; now you wake up to something that is usual
Yet alone I wait for what's rare and so beautiful
Unusual suspects never thought this could be
He chose I and I chose he
Reached the highest heights of emotional intimacy that led to his respect for I physically
Without all the words he knew what he meant to me
But sometimes what I meant to he never outweighed what will remain anonymously
I can't look back it cause too many tears
I can't just throw you away it's been too many years
So what do we do?
Embark on a friendship
Yet connections so cosmic it's on another dimension
Maybe not the twilight zone, it can still be understood
I dreamt of us even though it's not but it should
The times we have together was nothing less than good
Most the time great even when I hate Your guts because that what we do
Seen by many but was only understood by a few
People reading my writings right now thinking it's about you
maybe it is but maybe ain't
all I know is now that romance idea has become a memory so faint
Can't have what I thought I wanted so I want what's meant for me
It's yet to be discovered like an unsolved mystery
You're my inspiration, you're my love source
If you were a menu you'd be the meal that's full-course
As I arise out of my dream, I wake up with your inspiration
I can say this one thing without hesitation
Baby You & I we could have been beautiful, kinetic energy so rare I would call it unusual
You choose to walk the road where you did what you had to do; now you wake up to something that is usual
Yet alone I wait for what is rare and so beautiful
One day our love will meet and it will shine
I guess it will have to be in another lifetime
Then we can be
You & I

We must speak on this affliction
By no means is this blog an "Angry Black Woman" venting session. I only hope that my words cause you as an individual to spend time in a reflective mode to see where you are and establish where you want to be.
In today's world we have heard the popular words of @iamdiddy's BITCHASNESS and now with the twitter craze it has been converted into "TWITCHASSNESS." Yet, have we forgotten about the epidemic that has plagued this world since the beginning of time? Yes, you guessed right, it is HALFASSNESS. This is truly killing off more lives than the bubonic plague. So many individuals have a misconstrued perception that by giving a half-ass effort you will somehow produce the results of an individual giving all that they have.
50 = 50, clearly 50 does not equal 100. If you want 100, what will you have to give? Yes, you guessed right again, you must be a genius. You have to give 100. With so many people loosely using phrases, "I keep it 100" "Just be 100 with me" and the like thereof, you would think that the world would not be filled with so many individuals giving an overall sub par effort in life at their best.
By no means is it realistic to expect an individual to give there all, every moment of their life. However, it is important to realize that what you put in will always be what you get out. There are days that "the ball will be dropped." It is then necessary to embrace the fact that we may not see the results we ultimately desired due to that fact.
For my Christian folks, I already know you may be thinking, "well God will do the rest.” Yes He will, but He will step in once you have COMPLETELY given a situation over to Him and have FULL-HEARTEDLY placed your trust in the Lord. Did you realize that complete submission is required? If we partially allow God to do His job or partially trust in Him, the results will not be the same as COMPLETE and TOTAL submission and faith.
This blog was just to serve as enlightenment not only to you, but to myself as well. I heard once, "Life is what you make it, can't nobody tell you different." Wake up with a cheerful heart and joy in your heart, no matter what is endured throughout that day joy will still dwell within if you allow it. I choose to strive for "100" every moment of my life. What about you? You going for 100 or you cool with the 50?
Do not point the blame; I repeat DO NOT point the blame at others. Step up and take full responsibility for your life and your actions. If you only live up to 90% of your potential, you will only complete 90% of what you were placed on this Earth to do and recognize 90% of the gift placed within.
In closing leave the halfassness behind, and embark the beginning of a life of doing things with all that you've got.

A Piece of Wisdom
As part of my morning routine after fighting getting out of bed, a morning thank to the Lord for giving me another day and everything else that I find myself doing, I always find the time to check my Facebook friends statuses.
In a world that is now plagued by social networking, it only seems normal that I get in my morning dose of technology. I often find myself thinking, “Why do I even bother?” but this morning was quite different.
A friend of mine by the name of D. Boyd had (well at least to me it is) an incredible status message. It went as follows: “I used to want it all, but now I just want what’s in my cart for right now. Everything in life you can’t have all at once, it just comes as you grow. Taking it all in at once shows you’re greedy and weak. Nah you don’t know the future is going to hold but it might be better than what you have now.”
On an average day I may have read this, shook my head, agreed and kept it moving, but today was not average. I soaked up every word like a sponge …. Well minus the square pants….and the Bob of course….. But I digress. *insert smile and/or awkward chuckle here*
I can be the first to admit I want everything right now, but after a self-evaluation realized that I would not appreciate it and probably cause some serious damage. That one status made me realize that sometimes what you want is not what you need, well at least for right now. When you have to work, shed some tears, and lose things along the way in order to attain what was meant for you it means so much more.
For one reason or another I was compelled to share this short blip with you. I want you to remember this….. You don’t need EVERYTHING, RIGHT NOW! You only need what is meant for that moment. As each moment passes have faith that you will receive what you need for the here and now. That "here and now" will lead you to what you need for your future.
Be Blessed, Be Beautiful, and ALWAYS Be You
Peace and Blessings,
