Friends in need, friends in deeds.

"Let deeds, not words, be your adorning"
Showing love in ways other than words is hard goddamn work. But it is also never more effective at striking bullseye into the hearts of people. Actions weigh more in the fact that they are not passing, they are laid down, they become fact. Words and whispers ride the wind, actions ride your history textbook. it goes down a long way, every deed.
So my message to you will be: open your eye. open your heart. See beyond the words. See the person. See the sincerity. Make your judgement from there. No words are needed now. Just close your eyes and feel that person, holding your hand, never letting go. If you trip, we fall together. and we get up together.
Listen to yourself. Look upon your own deeds. Where your words may come and go, your deeds will make and break. Watch your step, think, and act in the spirit of love. Of sincerity, and kindness. You will know yourself best. And only you are the master of your own deeds and thoughts.
Love is two-way. Someone close to me once told me that there is grace and merit in BOTH knowing how to give, and knowing how to receive. The spirit is essentially the same. Give generously, accept humbly. To give and refuse to receive is denying the love of others. Then there is no love from you to them as well. Love is two-way.
And for you, that special one, you will be remembered in my prayers.

why try?

i just heard this comment today.
"In life, we must try everything to see what it feels like."
this sentence can be held true and false in many many cases....but in this case it was related to trying cigarettes, certain more common drugs etc.
when i heard it, i got so turned off. my mind is straight away "WTF??"
but then, how do you try to convince someone out of it?
"try once only, just wanna try!...it won't kill you. it's not like i'd get addicted."
so what? so what? so what?
having studied science these years, it's hard to believe that after knowing all the facts, anyone would even want to fill their body with such filth. it's your body! respect the damn thing...it's you!!
think about the extent you will be true to the first statement. it's not applicable out of a certain un-settable limit, and is so unstable. will you try cutting yourself? will you try eating shit? will you? try only wat. won't die right? rite...............................................
anyway, enough said. my philosophy in the end is "let them learn by falling"....hopefully not too late by then.
as for me, the body is something very important. sacred and a creation of God. Imagine you got a car. brand new. you treat it better than your wife right? well, my body is like my 'car' to drive in while in this mortal world. my soul, which is the essential 'me', is the driver! so that's why i love it. so you better love yours too.
