Hidden
My territory keeps me warm, calm and striving,
complications arise when I try to make sense
of what lies inside, and why it's so deep within
It has its positivity, favourable to those around me
giving to those I love to see smile
Using my power to take favourable steps
in the direction of an improved humanity
Every person is a mere foot step
but each step matters in history
You question me and my position in life
Why I am the way that I am
But I just am, like you, like all , like humanity
Created from love, striving towards destiny and self please
If i knew the answer to your question, I would have ammended
my own self stomach sobriety
Or perhaps it's my personal uniqueness
that element each person has
Yet it appears I have a flaw, like a normal human being
It's obvious to you because I'm still
Yet what it makes it different from the flaws you hold within
the ones not present in your daily personal interactions

Dress and Shoes
Like a random dress, experimenting
my inner child
Strong enough to peel the band aid
and try something new
Questions and questions
wanting to know what's on his mind
It wasn't personal, he was like a child
Felt like a mother, forcing on a soft side
It doesn't breakthrough, the provocations
only serve to salt the left foot wounds
The ones you don't see, don't know
and will never hear of
Forget his ego, it's all he's learnt
Waiting to be carried, gaining emotional and 'I'm right' comfort
Forgetting he needs to nurture
instead of running out to play
If only I'd stop playing around
With somebody too young for me
Grow up, and stop allowing one to be a lady boy
But be a lady and stand by his side
perhaps a judgement but its cool
what I say I know comes back to me
I take that responsibliity
It's like wearing stilletos, what envious shoes
Internally bleeding, tattered, losing inspiration, bound to motherhood
As if the game of life weren't enough
for me to cradle the games you and I love
for game... in hope
of gain..
p.s... I still believe

Parallel Realities
X runs to Y, Z runs with A
Emotional attachment leads one to be 'good' for the bad
Whilst detachment allows one to be 'bad' for the good
When your plate gets filled with that which isn't even yours
People playing games to feel stronger than the 'opponent'
Yet it only enhances personal ego, further encouraging hidden cowardice
Strength can be found in several aspects, it's the way you choose to act
at any point in time, whether by retaliating, letting it go or simply choosing to be quiet.
The game lies within each individual, a personal game, maybe a flaw
A lesson to be learnt, an obstacle to be overcome
a mere growth process
The resistance to let it go, further creates so many circumstances which force you
to relase it, yet wanting the opposite of the game, is the Biggest Challenge
that only lies within the self, perhaps the mover and shakers of personal emotions
which creates very circular rollercoaster circumstances paralleling that which
is revolutionising within!
22
A purpose allows me to stand tall
The dreams are necessary yet likeable to be
the right place, right time, destiny and my creative mentality
The more I think, the larger becomes the approach
the awareness of creating things on a positive note
It starts to fulfill when I am self fulfilled
Noticing the only treasures I have in life
are those that mirror what's already within me
The unrequired walks always, leaves me
making me free
Time is all that is, the rest is all the beginning

The occults
a science rooted in creative worlds like Harry Potter and an old age religion deriving
from witches and those who worshipped Earth.
Witches have always fascinated me, perhaps something about their unique powerful ability to attract what they want simply because they have faith in their beliefs. Their extensive use of potions and herbs to create that which they desire in their lives and the powerful love they have for nature's own beauty, the sun, the moon, the stars etc.. Well I've been reading up on it, and met those who have reached that stage in their life where they get what they want simply because they know they can and will call for it.
It's 2009, and the occults are more powerful than ever, not only can one find members
working in this 'religion' all over the world, yet the practice itself is so powerful
and this attractive all-embracing energy can be felt in the presence of 'light workers', in certain centers of worship, somebody's house or even a particular person. One simply has to be aware. Of course those who have been aware of energies for years may even tap into your personal energy and the oneness source which provides light.
The journey is pretty incredible, one discovers the use of tarot cards, divination, translation of energy aurus which are around each person and indicate what they are going through in life or what they're recent thoughts reflect. The third eye and its power is used in the name of intuition. Like any set of beliefs, it has to be experienced to be understood. By far the most interesting 'religion' that has come to me in life, and the one I've enjoyed the most from the various I have studied and the various I have experienced in the countries I've resided in or the centers of worship which I've visited over the years.
Based on Law of Attraction, one is able to pick out tarot cards and meditate and understand the position one is in, in this route of personal life. It's not exactly a fortune telling device, but rather a key to understanding where your self is situated, on which door and which circumstance. The use of energy to heal one another is fantastic, and simply done with the power of the mind and body. Of course a field which is so vast, there are various types of arts in this field of impressive occults, and one must experience it to notice the results, which in any case have changed my life perhaps thanks to the wheel of life which has the power to turn your world in a minute!

Cover Ups
Accessorized, decorated, one to suit the perfect ball
Yet one may find masks on every human being
Be it the mask of strength, the mask of power, pain and manipulation
Underneath each mask is a heart protecting itself, putting up a barrier and self portraying
what the being wishes for all to see
United in a cosmic world dance, separated by personal concerns
Concerns each individual has to a different degree, formed by distinct experiences
Let the self emerge.. for that is by far the most beautiful I you can decorate yourself with

The truth
When actions are done in this state, they lose their results and secondary concerns, they become actions of love
The experience is perfection, grace becomes so apparent
Service in the world becomes selfless, unique and an act of Creation
So many internal patterns change, as revolving life which is constantly changing
Truth grows larger everyday.
The seed which is based on creation and derives from the one creator manifests into the most beautiful fruits. Nurturing the elements, maintaining the condition is the work of NOW.

3 aspects of the SELF
The lad, the paternal and the patriarchal - boy
Each individual self has 3 aspects which need nurturing and attention each day.
When one aspect is ignored, life itself ignores that very aspect.
It all begins with oneself choosing to nurture each aspect , be it good or bad
right or wrong, how can anyone deny anything about themselves.
So much of which part of us we choose to accept and be mirrors
what life presents to us in situations and circumstance
The bad situations are created to alter and make one realize and accept their flaws
or perhaps obtain the change of releasing that negative pattern
The good situations balance out the very bad in order to give one abundance
and support for beliefs and intentions.
If you feel negative in any way, it is only because your denying your demons, or
have a belief rooted in that destructive pattern.
If life keeps throwing the same lemons at you, it's time you face what it actually is
within you that is attracting that same need again and again, release the need within yourself
for negative destruction, and observe the life changes that succumb around.
Allow the body to speak for itself, for its wisdom is divine, guiding one to what it needs,
it'll even communicate with you on why a certain part of the body pains. When something hurts there's a reason!! Last night during meditation, I found my left upper back in so much pain. I questioned the very source, and found I lacked emotional support. Yet it wasn't external, it's something I needed to pay attention to myself.
Every day is a new day. The old goes, the new comes, a problem is dealt with a new one arises. Yet it is only to remove all sense of ILLUSION, ( maya) which denies the soul from growing to its highest potential.
Every day is only a lesson for the soul to grow without interference from external sources and resistance of the mind to achieve and tap higher consciousness and to live in SELF awareness. This doesn't mean being an ascetic, it is a matter of being empowered enough to stay centered in the face of disaster and achievements knowing things come and go, hence there is nothing to weep or celebrate over but the SELF!!!!

My very own song
If I never cried, I wouldn't know what it feels to smile
Throughout it all, the thick and thin, I have myself and life which is all I have faith in
To be alive, to share a glass of wine, and heal my wounds
while I shed my old patterns
I'll grow and grow, for thats what life guarantees for sure
My eyes are new, each time I learn, about myself from all the turns
The very traits, I so denied, are ones I'm changing, to attract an abundant life
So what is there to regret, to share tears over done fret
When the new is new, and the old is old, it only gives one
meaning foretold
To live for now, for that's what's there, to celebrate,
the pondering has been done, by the one up above
who orchestrates the divine dance
The choice is mine, to breath and prance, to take my stance
to claim what's mine, which starts with me, and follows fine...
It begins with freedom...
To be

The Game of Life
from the Universal world bank
The game of life is a board game one plays much like monopoly or games of those sorts.
The irony of these games is that it shows one how one deals with life circumstances
in the face of ups and downs, and how one reacts to the players that surround
The ability to stay alit in the face of disaster, aware that there is more to come
or that things will eventually change. Relationship with other players going through
the same experience in their own unique ways according to the cards life plays each one and
the experiences one creates with the mind!
The game of life is so external, natural circumstances which come and go, much like people, choices, situations which keep changing like the weather. The only thing that matters is the self, and how one handles and deals with all that appears knowing that the source of abundance and peace lies within the heart chakra.

Respect
How ironic, that one spends searching for a way when the way lies within the very self
Every question that is asked with truth to the self in quiet contemplation
is most definitely found when one listens, and at times there is no answer
but simply asking for that answer from within leads for the answer to reveal itself
in due time at the right time, and sometimes the answer is found in a song that reveals itself,
an experience, a situation, something one sees with the eyes and sees within!
What's lacking externally is usually lacking internally. Once one makes a commitment to changing
or releasing a certain habit or defiance of the self, the world changes, all changes! What a simple thing, and yet at times in the face of chaos one goes whack influenced by externalities. The small things one disagrees with are at times denial of traits within oneself.

Battles
The irony of this is that by what standards? and by what method?
What a judgement!! Isn't life's battles about aiming to win, but at times you lose, and you get right back up again and continue training, and doing what you do best!!
I personally, passed a few things, failed a few things, what allows me to do the best of my ability is the fact that I continue BEING ME regardless of outer situations and circumstance.
My favorite football team, FC Barcelona aren't straight up consecutive winners, they lose matches as well and they're class!
The judgement just takes away all meaning from being alive! It beats the point, it encourages you to focus on results, when the enjoyment of life is the journey to the result. A football match isn't enjoyed for its 90th minute final result but rather for its 90 minutes of full on joyous experience! That is the difference between seeking victory, and EXPERIENCING VICTORY!

Dream journaling
A great time, when the mind surrenders itself completely to the spiritual realms
For the past few months, I've set intentions on my dreams just before laying in bed
When I wake.. and no no baking anymore, lol, I write down these dreams in a book.
A great way to notice certain themes in life, needs, or feelings which one is ignoring in the day, it also clears up the mind in concern to events or situations and helps straighten up thoughts.
Dream works is a true thing, it works, and unleashes the very soul from daily limitations.
It's also an animation company, which explains in consideration to the theme of enchantment
which humans have sooo lost, everyone, including myself is so engrossed in attachment
to desires, or situations, or people, that the heart loses touch with its inner peace!!
The mind has a life and heart of it's own, a creative sphere, which opens up to present all the things
dug in the subconscious.
Consciousness has way more appeal.. Treat yourself to dream play..

What is the mind?
That very source that thinks, provides affirmations, judges and knows
or is it all in the body, the soul, and the liner chakras
that unite one with the very light and energy source of the universe
It is so single minded, that each individual has the power to provide the world with their own essence whilst tapping into the one love of knowing all is one
Sources, history, books, inspiration, does one ever accept those very things into the system
and if so, is it for improvement of weaknesses or lack of strength
The mind is constantly involving, or perhaps it is
constantly CREATING
Is life, a journey of lessons, or a deeper creation rooting from emotions
and beliefs
Power, light, work, children, mere words that compromise each being
Yet each individual is so distinct, like a bed of roses where each rose
has its own scent, colour, texture and thorns
Perhaps those thorns are what allow the rose to bloom,
whilst it is deeply rooted into the very bed of mother nature
The earth on which one resides and inhabits
Essence is so unique, and so much of what is, is to learn that very essence
of one's own being, and mind. In order to create and manifest a beautiful life
and bloom like an amazing flower that soars towards the sun and sky

Be
Change..
Change is the current favourite term for everybody hopes for happiness. Yet true change won't be found with new societies and new presidents. It will be found when one undoes the outer causes and takes the soul back to the world where it originally came from. Don't stop or freeze for others to seize your power that is one of a kind, allow that energy to overflow so that you may create and shine.
Seize the day individually and be who your heart entails, all will be provided if labels are forgotten and the truth of life prevails. Generation after generation has fought for a country, and treasures they longed for. Yet all was lost as a tragic history it became, for ambitions were large yet desire, shallow.
To fight in the name of lord has proven individuals mights. Be it Che Guevara, Mother Teresa or princess Diana who were never appreciated till they were out of sight. Humans who provided flowers so that others would bloom and grow, healers who suffered whilst aiding humanitarian concerns. The more one grows, one realises that strength can only be attained from light hence all other forces will not destruct if not let in. Karma forms cycles and one gets what they give. The influence of previous lives or the construction of the mind's thoughts. Each person has the might to overcome this force and fight for their personal duty. Each soul, nature and object, a creation with a beauty which exists yet may not be seen.

Talk
Speak to me about the world and its beauty or the countries never seen
Speak to me about the treasures that lay below the sea and the stars that shine
speak to me about religious might and the power to unite
Speak to me about creation and its beauties
Speak to me about current events and political consequentiality
Philosophy is needed in this path of life
For without concerns of 3rd dimension, life is just a boring plight
Enlighten my soul with talks that involve your iq
Understand me because I can understand you
Speak to me like nobody is around
Speak to me as though we were on the moon and bouncing up and down
on the planets that surround
Speak to me like Im the first person you met
Speak to me as though love is just a flame and there are no regrets
Speak to me as a human because your a human too and we all want to be loved
Speak to me through harmony cos I believe first in the one up above
Act with me in the way you wish for me to act with you
You are made of mould yet you have a history and it appeals to my mystery
Ignoring rumours and comments of the ones that surround
You may find me if you see me the way I see you

Love
Life's journey makes one pass several tolls and obstacles
Most of which aim to shatter one's belief in love
The funny thing about life is that most of these transition poles just aim to scare ones might
Whether through attacks or games, each moment becomes a test
where people question whether your in love or you wish to be tamed
others kill your dreams for personal gain
Scatter brains surround pushing your limits
No boundaries exist in this plight, as friends will also disunite
Strangers cease the day with passive attitudes that smile away
Moments of the day change with faith
The winner stands alone, others arrive late
Arrows and bullets, banter and games
Imagination is a craft, secrets may be used against you
by those who love to win in joy of being smart
To know is a blessing, visions just come and go
Bubbles arise themselves, Humanity stands alone
An illusion it is, as I am not the thoughts
I am not the mind, I am not the body
I am the soul connected to the supernatural
Fire doesnt need to strike at all times
It stays lit as it burns the fuel
seeing the future unravel as it discreates the past
Fortune telling certain events, creating imagery that makes sense
Aware of the final destination and the light up above
Underestimated by those who consider such a power small
Religious beliefs are not mere words
The connection is made from the soul up above to the cord in the ground
A streak of love that's visible and stands tall

Power
Stereotype mania, mouths that provide judgement
Without understanding the cure and the cause
Spreading critical energy, without hesitating for a pause
People who lie to themselves each day
Unable to confront their skeletons
Projecting their emotions on others
Hoping their insecurities will fall away
Reputation is a personal review
for one never knows the reality behind material doors
Masks are plenty, eyes that long for power or drive
Humans unable to interact with their own souls
Yet they pose for others, pretending to be whole
Intensity is grand, connecting the supernatural cord, creating a stance
For individual raves come and go, the more you have, the more your known
The grander your facade, keener are those that surround

London dayz
Contrasting city with a bubble sky
Grey and white, particles that collide
Pollution, sirens and attacks on the street
Population, tubes and regulated individuality
Cctv control which pictures every movement
Food joints surround with ethnic migrants
Cold temperatures yet soothing winds
Alcohol intakes rise as cravings begin
Clubs are minor and full of students
Cheap nights out or glamorous trends
The sun is a moody bitch, prices rise, bank account flashes red
Smoking becomes a fad, enhancing the gloomy life a tad
The bedroom becomes a temple, education is lent
Institution provides information about the world
Multi-tasking global causes and personal concerns
Growth of the mind and soul become key
All is put apart, emancipating into a fee
London can be the black hole of the world
Yet it is the place one most discovers the unheard

Religion
God is one.. the eternal
They call him by different names.. he is found in Krishna, Sai Baba, Hanuman, Buddha, Guru Nanak, Jesus Christ, Muhammed, Abraham, Shiva, Vishnu, Zarusthra, Mahavira, Bab, Confucius .. the list goes on and on......
They say God signifies:
G- Generator
O- Operator
D- Destroyer
Religion is man made and has several negative connotations in present day due to it being used as a tool to manipulate people and as a business to create profit.
Yet religion has preserved culture and identity which one may not find in other parts of history. It allows one to follow the path of God and seek truth in a manner that suits each individual on a personal level. On a social level, it unites people to create collective energy which can be felt in temples, mosques, churches etc..
Religious quotes
Buddhism- 'Whatever harm an enemy may do to an enemy, or a hater to a hater, an ill-directed mind inflicts on oneself a greater harm' – Dhammapada, v.42
Hinduism- 'Just as a person casts off worm-out garments and puts on others that are new, even so the embodied soul casts off worn-out bodies and takes on others that are new. Weapons do not cleave the Self, fire does not burn the Self. Waters do not drench the Self, winds do not parch the Self. The Self is the same forever: unmanifest, unthinkable, still.' Bhagavad Gita' ||, 22-25
Jainism- 'The enlightened world-view, enlightened knowledge and enlightened conduct are the path to liberation.' -Tattvarthasutra by Umasvati verse 1.1.
Sikhism- 'Great Guru whose encounter brought the Lord to mind! With his teaching as their salve, these eyes survey the world. Attached to the other, some traders left the Lord and roamed. How few have realized the Guru is the boat, Which delivers those he favours safe across.' - Adi Granth 470
Zoroastrianism- 'Then I recognised you, O Mazda, in (my) thought as being the beginning and the end.. ' - Yasna 31:8
Judaism- 'Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting thou art God.' Psalm 90:2
Christianity- ' All things are possible to him that believes, more to him that hopes, even more to him that loves, and more still to him that practises and perseveres in these three virtues.' - Brother Lawrence
Islam- ' God dwells in the heart, according to the Tradition, 'Neither my earth nor my heavens contain me, but I am contained in the heart of my servant who believes.' Ibn al-Arabi, Tarjumanu al – Ashwaq
Taoism- 'The highest good is like that of water. The goodness of water is that it benefits the ten thousand creatures; yet itself does not scramble, but is content with the places that all men disdain. It is this that makes water so near to the Way.' - Tao Te Ching
Tenrikyo- 'Looking all over the world and through all ages, I find no one who has understood My heart. No wonder that you know nothing, for so far I have taught nothing to you. This time I, God, revealing Myself to the fore, teach you all the truth in detail.' - Ofudesaki
Baha'i Faith- ' Religion and science are the two wings upon which man's intelligence can soar into the heights, with which the human soul can progress... Should a man try to fly with the wing of religion alone, he would quickly fall into the quagmire of superstition.. with the wing of science alone he would also make no progress, but fall into the despairing slough of materialism.' - Abdu'l- Baha
Once we find our place on this planet earth.. and understand the small significance of our being.. we may live freely. Our existence is a mere grain of sand in the sahara desert where our being is just so small in comparison to the largeness of life and its width and vastness. 7 Billion people reside on this planet.. so many have died .. so many more will be born to live!

Humans are implanted with both, acceptance of each leads to ability

monopoly
The worldwide famous game where players cash out to buy, sell and take over the board!
Its symbolic parallel lies in the world of corporations, where powerful successful individuals are monopolizing the world and maintain the power to attack and take over nations through the government. An era in which the public sector appears to be in control of the nation, yet above them lie the top CEO's who invest in and make the most influential decisions which affect the globe and its inhabitants. Political parties, banks, police, state laws and media are mere tools through which messages are sent to the people by those in power to maintain a certain 'world view' whereby people follow a rigid guideline of how to behave and what to believe.
The system acts as the parent of society as they claim to work for our benefits yet they are controlled by those who aim for power and profit. In the West, the patriarchy has gone to great lengths to preserve 'order'. In the U.K, people are consistently watched through cameras and in the States, several cases of how the police treat members of society has been put on display such as the recent taser episode. The popular news channels of these countries, CNN and BBC are extremely biased in their views and present information in a manner that ignores the real truth.
Monopoly begins with the private sector, continues with the public sector and results in society's actions. Yet within society itself, monopoly is played amongst members of society through the means of manipulation. A vicious cycle of the colonizer and colonized.. rooting in the 18th century with the ambitions of invaders who took over nations whose patriarchy consisted of God. A game created by men to gain power. The brain sex of a man consists in the goal of MONOPOLY.

Seasons
In Spring grows the essence of life. Nature blooms, petals are alive. Thorns and thistle seem less visible as the Sun shadows its presence. People dress in tones that portray less aggression. born at this time.. close to Easter. New creations enhance freedom
In summer rises the urge to dance. One dances with fiery passion as moving feet on hot sand. The sun rejuvenates the body, the rays enter the soul. The element of fire is visible ... Life becomes ecstacy and wings keep fluttering like the bird that is the soul. Summer season is full of love, colour and nations eager.
In Autumn rises hazy energy. commence a new beginning as college begins. The sun being the peaking one whilst the clouds revolve around. Nature's bloom is going downhill, all that was bubbly and fresh is now becoming sober. Wine becomes enjoyable, grapes come into season. This part of the cycle is the cure and the cause. In some ways the end, and the egg..

21st century?
A year ago, a friend and I visited Southall, walking around we spotted a famous bar named glassy junction. We entered the place, got eyed at and called a few names for being women and wanting a drink. Mentioning this to friends a few days later in conversation.. the reaction was one of no surprise. Indians in India are more liberated in this case as it is common for women to be at bars and clubs.
Southall has a famous radio station named Sunrise radio which if one tunes into on Sundays.. women speak about their social and familiar pressures. Many women are forced to move to their country of origin and marry a stranger whilst other cases mention women who committed suicide out of fear of social reputation due what others considered a 'sin´. This whole social reputation is so ironic considering the extreme differences presented to men and women in ethnic minorities. Whilst men in Southall drive their cars around blasting their music and liberated to sleep around and eye women on the streets, women are expected to live according to rules society creates and be presentable as though their sole purpose lies in marriage. Judgement lies in all, yet if people in ethnic minorities, especially women limit one another´s freedom with social expectations, progress will be rare.
This is a broad generalisation but these pressures do exist and are questionable for they are present in one of the most famous Western cities of the world where democracy is meant to rule alongside freedom.
.
Cooking..
Beauty lies in creation for it roots in parents and results in future generations. Cooking is a symbolic term for the rituals society practices. It is the art of combining different ingredients based on senses and emotions. The involvement of colour, texture, flavour and spice is vast. An act performed since the start of time where materials were collected by hunting, fishing etc..
Rituals have been practiced by distinct societies for generations and are commonly understood with the use of religion which puts into place acts, found in the case of Vedic ritual in Brahmanical Hinduism or religious ceremonies conducted in Aboriginal Australian society. People gather to form a collective energy and this is expressed through songs, dances and motion.

Extremes
Extremities lie within you and me.. the contrast which surrounds humanity
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction . . . a creation of harmony
the cosmos which surrounds us is vast, the personal and public realm lie within us all
sometimes they reflect our soul, sometimes they reflect the world
In each major city, one may find a contrast in the way of life of humanity
Be it the clash between the rich and the poor, the powerful and powerless,
the money makers and bread makers or the dream sellers and dream buyers.
They reflect the strenghts and weakness of society and project them on our systematical patriarchy...
words..
Sometimes with emotions.. others that rhyme
Words are the expressions of a heart
They are the tools that communicate in a personal world apart
The world is an interesting site.. a book
Each page describes a different country and its might
and with it on earth one creates moulds
Paper is a symbolic clean slate.. Pen is a symbolic mind state
Together they form, the combination of the yin and the yang
Where both become one and leave a footprints on sand
Sand is found in the desert and by the sea
Each human is a mere grain of sand, unique in structure
The Taj mahal Shah Jahan built with cultural mime
Those made by technological advances rather than those made by man's dreams
May capitalism not kill humankind for the desert and sea are natural abodes
Not the skyscrapers that lay and lie in the sky..
