See the following picture. One of my former collegue and a good friend
Lorie Koop was among these women who made a world record for women in
the skydiving. She sent me this picture in an email and I forgot to
open it. Enjoy the picture.
Right from the word go work is getting better haha. This is good in
many ways. I like it. I haven’t moved around this place much just
office and back to the hotel. This is so nice that the company pays for
everything. Well… I haven’t done much what I enjoy doing here
in Xanga, commenting. Last night I thought I would do that mmm nope. My
old lazy bones did not held up much longer. But the following did not
stopped from pouring out of my heart. I don’t know why I wrote this. I
don’t care, I liked it.
My Sacrifice.
Shed those tears of happiness you will,
When life opens up the blessings before,
You as your thoughts perfects into life.
Though through the confusion of mind you wander,
Dragged in and out, stereotyped,
And labeled as you will be thrown down
To that thin line between sanity and insanity,
Morality and immorality, all by life.
In paths of life alone you will be left,
When the clouds of uncertainty,
Covers and blinds every step ahead.
But sure I promise you those happy tears,
Sadness may be an ocean you may plunge,
But happiness is the unseen ocean of love,
Oh’ every man’s heart opens a path to that ocean,
Where the salty sad drops will dissolve.
If it is not to my open heart you walk,
I will catch those salty drops before,
They fall on the cursed grounds of,
Uncertainty of the crooked life,
And I will walk away with pleasure,
Of seeing another life passing,
With joyous smiles and happiness spreading,
Like a cool breezy summer storm,
From the age of innocence taking,
The first steps of life not knowing,
Your sadness will remain in my heart ever after.
i’m glad your move went well!! and that is a way cool sky diving picture, haha.
your poem…
“where the salty sad drops will dissolve”
“your sadness wlil remain in my heart ever after.”
these are my favorite lines but this whole poem is marvelosu, probably one of my favorites by you…i odn’t know, it really reaches out to me. beautiful!!
What a sad, yet melodic poem. “If it is not to my open heart you walk” That line hit me the strongest.
I suppose in a way, I can say I understand being an immigrant, but, truly I don’t. My father was and I can only understand as far as what I felt from him.
He struggled and struggled to come to this country. To get a job here and make money. Then, he ended up dying for this country because the places he worked were mines and factories processing those long sheets of asbestos.
I wrote a poem called Immigrant about that. It was published in a magazine and later in a book.
I’m glad you were able to really feel that poem.
Hopefully in a positive, meaningful way!

Wow. Great poem, cool picture, congrats!
The power of words may be mistaken,
For a lesser, unimportant meaning.
But one has to read between lines,
To understand what is being sayed.

Hey Riaz…the 180zone is a christian based youth group, a place for kids to come and hang out. I am one of the youth leaders. I love being with the teenagers. I get to spend every Tuesday night with them. Take care….Kimmie*
Hey man!
(Oh yeah, don’t worry. I knew I wasn’t one of the readers you were referring to in your past post. I was just apoligizing for being a lazy ass!) Anywho, I’m afraid I’m going to have to shut down my site, if only for a little while…I’ll try and keep reading on here, but if I can’t…well…It was nice typing with you on here, dear Xanga friend. Thank you for all the advice you have ever given me. God bless…
It’s my secret xanga, the one I hide myself on. If you’d like to be added though, I will add you, but this one is mostly for my poems, stories or other simple writings. I don’t want to go too into detail about myself in a public post.
Done.
very cool picture and mahalo for your kind comments…i look forward to reading the poem you referred to when you’re finished.
thanks for the comment
my schedule is tre busy, but vair fun. I love the show I am in right now. it is definitely my favorite one out of 29 that i have done. have a great day!
Horray for your skydiving friend! That is amazing. And congrats to you for a new job. I hope things continue to go well. I know from experience traveling for work, the love of the pen comes in handy in the evenings at the hotel 😉 Hopefully we’ll get lots more of your inspired material here soon.
I really enjoyed this piece. It builds nicely to a point of acceptance.
Hi…Thank you so much for taking the challenge. Your words are beautiful as always. You have a wonderful way of putting emotions to words. Good Luck on new job, but the skydiving thing gives me chills. I hate heights. LOL Have a great day.
=TBR=

lol aww yeah i figured i’d put up a pic of me smiling for once because i finally feel like my time of mourning is over. This next coming year is going to mark a BRAND new year for me…a year to move on, rejoice for new starts, and just be HAPPY! i’m looking forward to that….hopefully me and jason can make this thing work.
That is so awesome about your friend in the skydiving! What boggles my mind is how they form such an awesome design! And you poem is incredible, as always. I always admire how someone can string together words in such a breathtaking way. I could never do that.

I’m glad you enjoy it so! It’s something I’ve been reading a while now daily. I hope your work continues to improve. 🙂

That’s the thing, I don’t allow people to randomly add me. I do get the alerts. I thought it might be someone I knew, so I figured I’d ask before I deleted them…and that’s when I got the “who r u???” thing. You are right, messaging should only be used for close people. I’m learning that the hard way. >.<

Great poem. I like the photo, don’t think I would ever want to sky dive, hate the idea of falling and hoping I land safely.
