♥ Live life with no regrets. There is only one
tomorrow and it is always headed your way. Take
advantage of all that has come to you in this life, because
you never know what lies ahead.
♥ Take pictures. Don't take them to remember.
But, rather, take them so that you will never forget.
♥ Kiss and hug those that you love. Stop saving it
up for tomorrow. Do it now. Sometimes, the opportunity is
gone before you know it.
♥ Respect yourself. You will never have the
ability to fully respect and love others if you are unable
to first respect yourself.
♥ Immerse yourself in whatever you do. We have
been given gifts that we rarely take advantage of. Use
your mind. Think, really think.
♥ The past is the past. Leave it alone. You may
look back, but please, don't stare. Look ahead with your
head up, eyes forward. If you aren't looking, you will
simply walk into something that normally would not have
gotten in your way.
♥ Appreciate sarcasm. Laugh. Make fun of
yourself. Stop getting embarrassed when something happens
to you and take a step back... Realize that funny things
happen. Take them as just that, comedy, and move on.
♥ Listen to music, all of the time. Sing out loud.
Dance until your legs turn to mush. Listen to intelligent
music that will provoke thought... And make sure that it
can make you move.
♥ Look into the eyes of a child. See the innocence
there?
Take that and learn. We were all children once and
occasionally, we still need to take a step out of our
mundane 9 to 5 lives and really live. Go get some ice
cream. Go on a bike ride. Think back to when chocolate or
vanilla was truly your most difficult decision to make.
Take that feeling and give yourself the chance to feel it again.
♥ Think outside of the box. This is the only way
you will get anywhere.
♥ Do something, anything, to change the world.
♥ I love my friends. I love my family.
I love life. I am not an over the
top giddy dizzy girl that twirls her hair. Intelligence is
one of the largest factors in my liking a person or not. I
love conversation. I love to dance around like I've
totally lost control of myself when I hear good music. I
love DJ's. I love vinyl. I love DnB.
I am the girl that will
always forgive you if she loves you, even though I know
that I shouldn't. I am small, but only on the outside. I
am seven feet tall on the inside. Take it all in stride...
sometimes, that is all that you can do. I am half Puerto
Rican, but some would say that the Puerto Rican is quite
dominant in my personality. I have a big mouth, and I will
back it up if need be. The people that I love come first,
all of the time, no matter what. I am the girl that will
take care of you while you are sick, give you her shoulder
while you cry, or beat someone up for you if you want me to.
When asked why the sky is blue, Leonardo da Vinci said...
"I say that the azure that the air makes us see is not its
proper color, but this color comes from warm, damp air,
evaporated into minuscule and imperceptible particles,
which, being struck by the light of the sun, become
luminous below the obscurity of the mighty darkness which
covers them like a lid."
"All our knowledge has its origin in our perceptions."
Def Jam Poetry, Erykah Badu
