Happiness of Pain
…not everyone can relate to happiness or joy. Some may even despise you for having something they can’t seem to attain. Many don’t feel deserving of such “pleasures”. PAIN is something that everyone can relate to…

Who Are You?
You wake up one day and you don’t remember a thing. Who you are, where you’re from, or what you’re supposed to be doing. Your family, friends, and acquaintances try to remind you of who you were. In fact, they expect it. The uneasiness grows as you question yourself, your identity, and the meaning…

Always Fill The Void
The universe seems to abhor “Non-Change”. Generally speaking, one must be in motion; moving, changing, interacting. Stillness allows us to “capture” the moments and reflect on what is.

Especially, when you claim that “someone” or “something” else told you to choose XYZ, you have selected to NOT make…

You Are A Work of Art
Art is an expression of yourself. A limited, crude external representation of your thoughts, feelings, fears, hopes and desires. A self-expression of what’s inside, manifesting outwardly.

Let’s Feel Good
It appears that everything we do in life is for the purpose of making ourselves ‘feel good’. Call it what you want, whether it’s inner peace, happiness or joy, it comes down to just ‘feeling good’ NOW. Think about it for a moment. How do we do this? Whether you enjoy watching sports, eating, being…
