Cup of Rainbow.
That Monday afternoon on my way to the train, a lady pushing a shopping cart stopped me and pointed towards the clouds. She said, "Look! A rainbow in November!" And she gushed and parlayed for a moment with a fixed gaze. I looked toward the heavens in the direction she was facing and there it was.
*You helped me see it.

Beautiful Lyrics: Everything.Lifehouse
Speak to me
I want to feel you
I need to hear you
You are the light
That's leading me
To the place where I find peace again.
You are the strength, that keeps me walking.
You are the hope, that keeps me trusting.
You are the light to my soul.
You are my purpose... you're everything.
How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this
You calm the storms, and you give me rest.
You hold me in your hands, you won't let me fall.
You steal my heart, and you take my breath away.
Would you take me in? Take me deeper now
How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this
And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this
Cause you're all I want, You're all I need
You're everything,everything
You're all I want your all I need
You're everything, everything.
You're all I want you're all I need.
You're everything, everything
You're all I want you're all I need, you're everything, everything.
And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
Lifehouse Everything
*I love you.

Heaven holds you.
Lover.
to the moment
where we connect
down where the barriers fade
with the elapse of time
and you are all that matters
my lover's kiss
that awakens me
arouse this intensity within
im drawn to you
my body responds
to the notion of your love
the idea of your touch
sing my song that you know by heart
stay right here
seize my craving
devour my time

Lost Without You. Robin Thicke
Can't help myself
How does it feel?
To know that I love you baby
I'm lost without you
Can't help myself
How does it feel?
To know that I love you baby
Tell me how you love me more
And how you think I'm sexy baby
But you don't want nobody else
You don't want this guy
You don't want that guy
You wanna touch yourself when you see me
Tell me how you love my body
And how I make you feel baby
You wanna roll with me
You wanna hold with me
You wanna stay warm and get out of the cold with me
I just love to hear you say it
It makes a man feel good baby
Tell me you depend on me
I need to hear it
I'm lost without you
Can't help myself
How does it feel?
To know that I love you baby
I'm lost without you
Can't help myself
How does it feel?
To know that I love you baby
Baby you're the perfect shape
Baby you're the perfect weight
Treat me like my birthday
I want it this way
I want it that way
I want it, Tell me you don't want me to stop [Don't stop]
Tell me it would break your heart
But you love me and all my dirty
You wanna roll with me
You wanna hold with me
You want to stay warm and get Norwegian wood with me
I just love to hear you say it
It makes a man feel good baby
I'm lost without you
Can't help myself
How does it feel?
To know that I love ya baby
I'm lost without you
Can't help myself
How does it feel?
To know that I love ya baby
Cause you will tell me every morning
Oooohhh all right baby
Ooooh yeah
Oh baby
Oh darlin'
All right right
I'm lost without you!
Can't help myself
How does it feel?
To know that I love you baby
I'm lost without you

How does it feel?
To know that I love you baby!
Ooh yeah
Oh baby
Oh darlin'
All right right
Oh baby

Ooh ooh baby

Love After Love
when, with elation,
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror,
and each will smile at the other's welcome
and say, sit here, eat.
you will love again the stranger who was yourself
give wine, give bread. give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you.
all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.
take down the love letters from the bookshelf,
the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
sit. feast on life."

311. Amber
take me away from the norm
I got to tell you something
this phenomenon
I had to put it in a song
and it goes like
Whoa, amber is the color of your energy
whoa, shades of gold displayed naturally
you ought to know what brings me here
you glide through my head blind to fear
and I know why
whoa, amber is the color of your energy
whoa, shades of gold displayed naturally
Whoa, amber is the color of your energy
whoa, shades of gold displayed naturally
You live too far away
your voice rings like a bell anyway
don't give up your independence
unless it feels so right
nothing good comes easily
sometimes you gotta fight
Whoa, amber is the color of your energy
whoa, shades of gold displayed naturally
launched a thousand ships in my heart, so easy
still it's fine from afar, and you know that
whoa, brainstorm take me away from the norm
whoa, I got to tell you something

Sending My Love To You. Zhane.
Right to you, I would
I'd pack it up, seal it tight
And I'd send it over night
Every time I hear your voice
And I look into your eyes
Sends a burning sweet sensation
Oh, inside of me
The look in your eyes
Has found me
I am sending
Sending my love to you
Praying that you are home
Sealing it with a kiss
Sending my love
Sending my love to you
Praying that you are home
Sealing it with a kiss
Sending my love
With my heart in your hands
I'm as helpless as a baby
I'm in desperate need of your love
So just send it right away
I've been thinking 'bout you, boy
Because you're so far away
Makes me want to send you all this love
Inside of me
The look in your eyes
Has found me
I am sending
Sending my love to you
Praying that you are home
Sealing it with a kiss Oh, ho
Sending my love
Sending my love to you
Praying that you are home
Sealing it with a kiss
With a kiss
Sending my love
If I could mail my heart
Right to you, I would
I'd pack it up, seal it tight
And I'd send it over night

Lykke Li. Little Bit
I'm too proud, for love
But with eyes shut
It's you I'm thinking of
But how we move from A to B it can't be up to me
Cause I don't know
Eye to eye
Thigh to thigh
I let go
I think I'm a little bit
Little bit
A little bit in love with you
But only if you're a little bit
Little bit
Little bit
In lalalala love with me
Oh ah
Uh ooh ooh uh ooh ooh uh ooh oooh
Uh ooh ooh uh ooh ooh uh ooh oooh
And for you I keep my legs apart
And forget about my tainted heart
And I will never ever be the first to say it
But still I, yes you know, I..I..I..
I would do it
Push a button
Pull a trigger
Climb a mountain
Jump off a cliff
Cause you know baby I love you love you
A little bit
If you would do it
If you would say it
If you would mean it
That we could do it
If it was you and I, not only I
Ha hm
I think I'm a little bit
Little bit
A little bit in love with you
But only if you're a little bit
Little bit
Little bit
In lalalala love with me
I think I'm a little bit
Little bit
A little bit in love with you
But only if you're a little bit
Little bit
Little bit
In lalalala love with me
Ah oh
Come here, stay with me
Stroke me by the hair
Cause I would give anything
Anything
To have you as my man
Come here, stay with me
Stroke me by the hair
Cause I would give anything
Anything
To have you as my man
Little bit

A little bit in love with you
But only if you're a little bit

Smashing Pumpkins. Today
Can't live for tomorrow
Tomorrow's much too long
I burn my eyes out
Before I get out
I wanted more
Than life could ever grant me
Bored by the chore
Of saving face
Today is the greatest day
I have ever known
Can't wait for tomorrow
I might not have that long
I'll tear my heart out
Before I get out
Pink ribbon scars
That never forget
I've tried so hard
To cleanse these regrets
My angel wings
Were bruised and restrained
My belly stings
Today is
Today is
Today is
The greatest day
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you round
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you
Today is the greatest
Today is the greatest day
Today is the greatest day
That I have ever known

difficult to explain- this space in my chest, this frame in time
right here and now. while those eyes are looking back into mine
i wonder if you see it.
you've captured my attention.
every song reminds me of you. the way you touch.
the lingering of your smell after a sensual session together.
like the rock & rhythm in my favorite song. i'm the melody and you are inside the beat. the musician. playing me. yes, just play me.
at night, thoughts of you flood my sensual switch board and i'm alive.
the depth in your voice... spellbinding.
how are you doing this to me?
and in the morning, i greet the sun with a smile as memories parade prance & stomp heavy
all inside my bosom.

Eyes on the prize, baby...
Got a nail appointment today with my one & only bella nail tech from Astoria [on Steinway]. I have been going to her for about a little over a year and I refuse to let anyone else even paint my nails, let alone do work on them. She's know that I'll wait hours if necessary and I believe in the value of showing appreciation-- tipping is an art! That's the loyal lioness is me-- when I know where to go to get it good, you better believe I'm coming back. Strictly business or otherwise. [wink, wink] lol
I'm so excited about Stacey McKenzie bringing her Walk This Walk Workshop to New York City! I am beyond ecstatic. Totally have my marketing switch on full effect and strategizing on all of the new and innovative ways to develop this brand.
Monday is my big final presentation from my professional course and then Tuesday, I'll be attending this event from Full Circle NY. See me there!
Busy, busy worker bee.
**Currently on page 144 of Act Like A Lady, Think Like A Man...

What's that right there?
"What exactly are The Velveteen Principles?" Well, remember that children's story The Velveteen Rabbit?
What does it mean to be real?
For the velveteen rabbit, becoming real meant learning to be truly himself and not a version of something he thought he was supposed to be. Because it's based on our individuality, the concept of real is different for everyone, just as the purpose of life is varied in perspective. In a society consumed by Euro-centrism, assimilation, and an abundance of destructive social constructs, The Velveteen Principles begins with the argument that it is possible to be a true individual and a genuine entity in this illusionary world.
And if there's anything guaranteed in life it includes feelings of happiness and contentment, work that is engaging, relationships that feel satisfying, and enough love that we don't feel alone in the world. The Velveteen Principles can help you discover and develop your real self, live with empathy and establish satisfying relationships. The qualities that make us real help us to connect with others and live in a more deeply satisfying, engaging and appreciative wavelength. Once you truly tap into your geniune essence and you know that everything you say and do matters to others, you can also understand that we each leave an impact on the world that remains long after we're gone.
Hmph. Def food for thought.

Good Friday.
Today I got The Secret in the mail from Netflix and as soon as I got the chance, I put that sucker on rotation. Of course, by now everyone is up on the inner workings of 'the secret' and how it functions. The whole "thought frequency" concept and the law of attraction are constantly reiterated throughout the documentary... and one of the examples they use is how you can suddenly have an encounter with an individual you were thinking about simply by focusing on that person. Not surprisingly, I have managed to attract quite a number of people into my life including people whom I have always wanted to meet based on their artistry. [Jennifer Hudson, Robin Thicke, Stacey McKenzie, Danica Lo, and many other inspiration muses.]
Ever gone through a particular circumstance where you just wish you had a chance to try again? Whether it be a conversation you wanted to attempt again or an entire day you wish you could just erase and start all over, I think we've all been there...
especially when it comes to dealing with someone who you secretly or not-so-secretly admire.
After a restless Friday afternoon, I suddenly caught the urge to go out and at the very last minute, I threw on my little black dress.
[a girl's best friend]
And in the course of the evening, I found myself saying, "I was just thinking about you."
Let's just say I had a good Friday.

At Last
It's been almost a year since my initial post and my dreams are just now coming to fruition. This is how it unfolded...
My severely neglected IBM laptop circa 1990 which has been collecting dust on top of a stack of old beloved magazines.
I cracked it open clam-shell style, to reveal the screen that spawned the original post below and to my pleasant surprise, I noticed something that I hadn’t before. Against my desktop image is a beautiful drawing by one of my favorite artists [Kurt Halsey] of a woman with her hair in the wind and the silhouette of her four-legged friend right beside her. Coincidence, I don't think so...
I'm thrilled to delve into this whole blogger experience and unleash the diary within because ultimately none of you, “have any idea.” [Reference to the now obsolete MTV documentary series Diary Of...] I'll spend much of this weekend dedicated to mapping out the blueprints.
