This World

Another child is born
Another race is won
Another dream is shattered
Another day has begun
This world is still afloat
No, not in Noah’s boat
We’ve only lost the vision
Of the stars we’re meant to be

I made it home. After 18 of the longest years of my life, my time spent in Oklahoma makes sense. Everything I experienced there, the good and the bad, was a preparation for my next chapter in life. I decided to start a blog site as part of a campaign I've created along my accidental spiritual journey .I believe having a site dedicated to recording my daily life, including both the simple and grandeur events, will help me reach my ultimate goal: To write and publish a literary work that lives on even after I pass.

My Notice of Disclosure

With this blog, I'm hoping to become more honest with myself, with others, and within my writing. I've learned the past few years that everything and everyone is edited. The things I've said and done in my life have always been filtered, and it shows in my writing. Worrying about ridicule is like living in fear, and I've resigned to not live in fear ever again. It hinders growth and after having an insane 2009, I realize there's not enough time to hold back anything. You just never know if today will be your last day, and I don't want to leave this planet with regret of any kind.

My goals with this blog are to deliver the truest and most genuine accounts of my life, from now until January 15, 2011. This gives me a year to catalog my exodus out of Oklahoma and to begin exploring the destiny of my return HOME. I will do my best to open up about myself and my life, in hopes that I can find some solace within my restless soul and become a better writer through this project.

I don't wish to offend anyone with the contents of my blog project, (that's Eminem's shtick, not mine). It should be known though, that in order to begin breaking the walls I've built around myself and my writing, I have to learn how to deliver and communicate raw thoughts and ideas in their natural state, regardless of other people's reactions.

Your part in my blog project

If you're in my life, especially on a daily basis, surely you will be mentioned in this blog at one point or another. Relax though, because this is my project, so your personal life will not become the subject of my writing, nor will I ever use this blog as a means to attack my friends, family, and those I love. If you're still up for tagging along with me on this impromptu spiritual journey, that's awesome!

I hope everyone who reads this will at least be entertained with the accounts from my life. It will be neat to read the January 15, 2011 post, just to see where I am, spiritually, mentally and physically; because with me, there sincerely is no predicting where I'll be in a year. I'm hoping to stay here, since its taken me 18 years to get back, but I know myself all too well.My life is in a state of endless construction zones. Fortunately, for me and YOU, these never ending construction zones lead to interesting detours along the path.

For now, "Salud! Baila!! Baila!!!" I'm just happy to finally be HOME.

This world is full of love
we still have hope♥
