What Is It?

Do you see what I see?
A light to the world, vision of hope from a broken past.
Do you see what I see?
Someone to guide me on my lost path. Someone to protect me, provide for me, motivate me.
Do you see what I see?
Respect and admiration of whirling experiences all melded together. A single being held with high distinction from any other. Proven in his drive.
Do you see what I see?
Love like no other. Passion. An unlikely story driven by emotion. A reason. A meaning.
Do you see what I see?
Utmost concern and bits of worry surrounding my life to keep me together. Holding me from falling, safety to my touch.
Do you see what I see?
Not just meaningless opinion and judgement, not just passing thoughts and feelings but building through differing character. Learning. Growing. Changing. Not just words.
Do you see what I see?
My sunshine. My light. My desire.
Do you see what I see?
Push and encouragement to make those leaps, be sure of brighter days, be willing to get better and mend.
Do you see what I see?
The future. Together. A world surrounded by immense love. Shared lives and experience. Floating souls traveling the same cloud as one.
Do you see what I see?
Able to see past the flaws, sometimes embedded, sometimes as a result of the past. Able to forgive and move forward. Able to accept and realize our differences make us want to fix for the other.
Do you see what I see?
Fear of breaking, fear of you releasing from my strong grip. Fear of your disbelief and not understanding me.
Fear you will be just another to walk away from my life.
Do you see what I see?
Never finding another, never another love like this. The last to love and give.

What is it you see?

Do you see what I see? Feel what I feel? Unable to fully compose a complete and solid finding of this love, this meaning, but knowing it is right in every way. Keeping that trust and faith. Belief and acceptance. Do you see it too? Do you want this life? Changing for the better as a result of you revealing to me. Revelations which make us different and unique yet special to one another and willing to be patient. A love to maintain bonded and strong. Do you see what I see?

What is it you really see?

All We Are Saying, Is Give Peace A Chance

Maybe it's time we all took a lesson from John Lennon and just give peace a chance.

I'll Admit...

I've never really been compelled to write about celebrities or athletes or prominent, societal figures in this blog, but I've come to change my mind. Also a close friend, writing regularly about women she admires, gives credit to not only their strikingly good looks and accomplishments but also who they are, what they do and fully captures inner beauty (thanks Sus!). Despite how over-paid actors, sports announcers, athletes, talk show hosts, etc. etc. are, many go unnoticed for their acts of kindness, humanitarian efforts and overall down-to-earth personalities. For that, I'd like to pay tribute to a duo I've always admired.

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. Been a fan ever since I can remember. Even through their stages of drug abuse and rumored eating disorders, I knew they'd overcome the frowns and stares and media efforts to bring them down. And they did persevere, with beauty still intact.

They're young (only 24), multi-millionaires, successful in television, film, books, fashion and beauty cosmetics...and obviously they're twins (they're fraternal, not identical though!).

Very few young women professionals at this age have accomplished and fulfilled the goals these girls have. They started their acting careers at a mere nine months old all thanks to Full House. Not to mention I was a die-hard MK&A movie series fan growing up too. The girls have grown to starting, building and owning their own company (Dualstar Empire) to include the various books, films, fashion and music that have hit many tween faces and impacted their worlds.

Yes, so they might not be the all-stunning and peace bearing humanitarians like I truly admire and follow, but they've charged through society at every age and stage imaginable. Being in the spotlight from nine months old through 24 years old marks them as not only intriguing but well-worthy of their success and fame.

Kudos girls, keep on doing your thing.
