Building my future....

I've been day dreaming...
It's been more than a year since I've been day dreaming like this; but of course, sometimes it's better not to indulge the dream so that I don't become too anxious.
Some people comes to our life very slowly, without intentions and they bring peace and comfort.
Others enter without asking for permission and causes tensions, insatisfaction and unhappiness. That's crazy, huh?!
But whenever peace and comfort are around, then I like to dream... By the way day dreaming is so good for the skin and the heart. Isn't the creative imagination, what builds our future?! Used to say Einstein and many others...And it's like that, that I want to cultivate relationships in my life. These days, I'm fighting hard to eliminate all that brings me fear. Some people are great, but not so great to people, and it should be simple like that, without persistence, without a lot of questions. I want to dream of what brings me a warmth in my heart, of that is more simple and magic at the same time. Of what is lacking evidence...I deserve to live of what is more beautiful, more truthful, of what is more solid.
Some people confuses truth with convenience, others confuse education with pretending and I....I don't have to judge anyone, but to me the truth is what matters. Certain people still believe that life is made out of reason and not of emotions. I come around not to judge anyone, but to cultivate my emotions with comfort and peace.
I only accept the relationships where the sincerity that each person has to maintain with themselves is never affected by others.
I deserve the better of the best! I deserve the luck of a serene love...and just like that, I keep dreaming.

What Makes Me Happy?

What makes me happy?

What makes me happy?

Those who want my well being,

Having God’s blessing;

the love of my family,

the sympathy of my friends.

Life makes me happy,

I’m happy for my well being,

My state of mind,

For the peace in my heart.

I’m happy because I can be happy.

I’m happy to have you in my life.

I’m happy to say Amen, when we scream loud: peace on Earth to mankind.

I’m happy because I can breath,

Because my heart beats,

And for the blood that runs in my body….

I’m happy!

For the simplest and smallest things that exist,

For a sincere smile full of grace.

My health,

My love for art, music…life,

They too make me happy.

…and I still ask myself,

What makes me happy?

Why am I happy?

…and with all my sincerity, I say

I am happy because I am a Human being,

Living more than ever.

I am happy.

Time Traveler

Today's lesson was thought to me by Dr. Noel S. Anderson and Dr. Haroon Kharem.
One of the things out of many, that stood out to me was Dr. Anderson's point of view on traveling.
He said "the more your travel, the less you know." I have to agree with him, we need to start conversations and interactions with people from different backgrounds, and get to understand where we all come from.

"If you don't know where you've been, you don't know where who you are, and you don't know where you are going. "- Dr. Haroon Kharem

Educate yourself, there's a world of possibilities out there.


I start now!

Inspired...

Inspired by a poem written by Arnaldo Antunes, a writer and composer from Brazil.

I wrote in response to his poem, posted by Borbuletas no Estomago.

It's written in Portuguese, but I will translate it, afterward.


O Que Me Faz Feliz

O que me faz feliz?
O que me faz feliz?
Faz-me feliz, os que bem me quer.
Sou feliz por ter a bençao de Deus; o amor da minha familia, a simpatia dos meus amigos.
Faz-me feliz a vida,
o meu bem estar,
a paz do meu espirito.
Sou feliz por ser feliz.
Feliz por ter-te na minha vida.
Feliz por dizer Amen! qdo todos gritam PAZ NA TERRA A TODOS OS HOMENS!
Sou feliz pela minha respiraçao,
o meu coraçao que bate,
o sangue que corre nas minhas veias...
Sou feliz!
Pelas coisas mais simples e pequenas que possam exister.
Faz-me feliz, um sorriso espontaneo e cheia de graça.
Faz-me feliz, a minha saude.
O meu amor a musica, a arte...a vida.

E ainda me pergunto,
o que me faz feliz?
Porque sou feliz?

E te respondo com toda a sinceridade,
que sou feliz, porque sou um ser Humano,
mais vivo do que nunca.

Sou feliz.

Words of Reality

"You may think I'm a small person here, I'm 28 years old, for the record. Just for those who are saying, who is this small person telling us or teaching us... I'm not teaching anybody, I'm just sharing my experiences. That's what we call O.D.D at home [Nigeria] ... What I'm trying to say is...I take everything so serious, I find myself taking everything so serious (this year), like, it's good to be focused, is good to be serious, but it's also important not to forget, to feel, to really feel. And i decided to take a break [...] I went back home, and so many things happened within that one month in Lagos (Nigeria)...so many serious, like...accidents, I see people dying, I go to the general hospital, and I see how people are packed, together in one room, with all sorts of sickness and stuff like that...and I'm like...Nneka, your life is good, and God is good, and I'm not saying that if one is going through hardship, that God is not good...God is always good. Important is that we live life to the fullest, that we love. The only thing, that is important in life is to love, and that's the healing to every thing, to every sickness, to every whatsoever. The answer is LOVE, begin, end, middle...so that's my own. [...]"

These words of reality, were spoken by Nneka, live in Philly, before singing Heartbeat.
Her words, speak to me, as I live my everyday life.

Power on the Rise

Nneka was born in Nigeria, and at the age of 19 she emigrated to Hamburg, Germany, to follow her singing career while she was at a local university pursuing her BA in Anthropology. After meeting DJ & Beatboxer Dj Farhot. her secret to success, she has risen.
Her music reflects her life in Nigeria, but also the time period, lived in Europe. The distance from her homeland to her current city reflects in her voice, as well as her music influences. As key references, her compatriot Fela Kuti, Bob Marley the Reggae lend, and recent rappers such as Miss Lauryn Hill, Talib Kweli, Mobb Deep and Mos Def.

I was introduced to Nneka in late 2006, by a friend who lives in Germany. Since then I've researched about Nneka, about her life, her story and her music. I've found myself, listening to her music non-stop. I've learned to embrace her lyrics as part of my reality. Her voice is so angelic and rustic, that I've recommended her music to other people.
Before, she became well known in the US, she had fans all over Europe, and her mother country Nigeria.
