What Love Is 4

Every man has the capacity to love. But that is not all. Everyone has the need to love. From our youngest years, we cry for attention; we want to be noticed, we need to be appreciated. The desire to be great is the desire to be loved. That is the essence behind the want to be needed. To be special is to be loved. And we always want it, because we have always needed it. After an individual has got to a certain age, life starts to become meaningless when there is no love. A girl may be very serious with her studies, try so hard to excel, be so hardworking and industrious, be successful in business and other endeavours, and put up an appearance f being happy. But deep down inside, in the core of her being, she feels empty. She is sad; life becomes vanity, because love is absent. Wives of very rich men love social clubbing, join many organizations, trying so hard to get meaning out of their lives, because they need a little bit of love in their world. There can be sense of fulfillmen...

What Love Is III

Life is full of opposites, positive and negative, male and female. These can be in such subtle forms that they are not easily seen and understood consciously; like I can write but cannot draw and I can draw but cannot write. That kind thing. Like Moses and Aaron, one can receive but cannot speak and the other can speak but cannot receive; the opposite sides of the same coin. Complimentary qualities; Life is full of them, opposites, male and female, polarities! And when they get together, they tend to attract. There is love between them. A positive charge loves a negative charge. When it is alone, a charge is searching, seeking to be neutral, seeking for the part that will complete it. A positive charge seeks a negative charge. This is the reason for chemical reactions, and subatomic unity. Even the formation of electrically neutral substances does not mean it is really neutral; they just produce a new form of polarities on another level. Just as magnetism is a form of polarities th...

What Love Is II

Matter is anything that has weight and occupies space, generally speaking. And every matter is an element, a mixture or a compound. If a substance is a compound, it is made up of two or more elements, held together in a bond, generally electrovalent and covalent bond. There is attraction between the elements at the atomic level. There are over a hundred elements that have been recognized, but a particular element does not combine with just any other element to form a compound. A particular element can only combine with a select few, and among these select few, there is one or two with the greatest degree of compatibility. In other words a particular element only loves a select few among other elements and there is one or two it loves the most. And it cannot be with the one it does not love – only human beings have been found to be able to do that. So compounds are formed between elements that have love for one another. The atom is the smallest indivisible part of an element w...

What Love Is I

Love is an everyday word. We say it a lot, many times as a part of the common statement; ‘I love you’, which we do not really mean sometimes. We use the word, but do we know what it is? I always say that love makes the world go round, literally. And it is a fact. Love is the building block of the universe. It is a fundamental that is so subtle that it is beyond the physics but is responsible for it. The world is always in motion. The earth is always going round the sun. The sun itself is revolving around a central orbit in the galaxy. The galaxy itself is also revolving. The world is always in motion. The basic cause of this motion is gravity. It is a force of attraction between two bodies. Let us take the earth for example. It seems as if it wants to get away from the sun, being pulled by a force. Whatever exerts the force on the earth wants to draw the planet to itself. It ‘loves’ the earth. The sun at the same time exerts a force on the earth. It draws the earth to itse...

One Funny Day

Usually, I'm not funny, but the other day I found myself looking like the funniest clown. Maybe I was not looking so, but I do not think so. I really think I was looking very funny. I think I was funny because I think I looked silly. And this gets me to think at this particular time, is it better to look funny or to look silly? But leaving my mind to figure out which is better, I go on to relate what happened. I decided it was time to talk some sense into my girlfriend. Not a girlfriend as in personal girlfriend, at least not yet, but a friend who happens to be a girl, at least that is the way she wanted things to be. Now I don't know what she wants at all though I know I want more than that, thank you! Anyway I went to talk some sense into her, make her know I am a man and not as weak as I (tell myself I deliberately make myself) appear. She never said so but I have this feeling she sees me so. So I had to 'discover' the reason I 'allow' myself to be so. So I...

The Psychology of a Man

The Psychology of a Mad Man Christianity is not a set of dos and don'ts. It is not traditional, it is not conventional. True Christians have the Psychology of a mad man. A mad man does not care about who you are. He doesn't care about your feeling towards him. He doesn't care about his surroundings and immediate circumstances. He could be naked, he could be unwashed, he could be dirty, but he doesn't care. Who you are doesn't matter to him. He does not even matter to himself. The only thing that matters to a mad man is the voice in his head. It gives him instructions and he obeys. He doesn't care if it is logical or not. He obeys promptly. People sing 'I am a radical for Jesus' but it does not end with the song. The gospel when fully lived makes you behave like a mad man. You take decisions that are not logical, take steps that are directly against the CONVENTIONAL TRADITIONAL ways of doing things. Imagine God telling a man to go and marry a harlot. Hos...

WHO DO YOU NEED? III

Every good container has a good lid. The lid matches the container and fits perfectly. When you look at them, you see that they are both made for each other. They may not know it themselves, but every observer sees it is so. A Nokia battery made in Vietnam fits perfectly into a Nokia phone made in India; they are made for each other. As human beings, we need partners that are the most perfect match. You need your perfect match! The most perfect match means the person that is close to the perfect match. You cannot get a perfect match. You can make your perfect match but the work is easier when he is as close as possible - and he allows you to. You see, just as atoms of a particular element can only react with a select few of other elements, under normal circumstances, so is a particular human being able to form a match with only a select few of the human population. So you need to be careful. People usually suffer when they do not know what they ought to know. Some people ...

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

You think you are in control, think again. You are not in control! Did you choose the day you were born? Did you choose the day you will die? Did you choose where to meet your spouse? You may plan everything; from high school to college, and even your marriage. Plans are very ok. But can you choose when to meet your spouse? You can only pray that you meet her before the wedding day according to your timetable and that will be available on that day, either by choice or by chance. Things happen, you know. Accidents, sickness, death. Things happen and things can go wrong. A wonderful plan may go wrong; because you are not in control. You are not in control because you are not in control of time. If you know it, you use it, but you don’t decide it. There are only a select few among the human populace that will be match for you. You cannot meet all of them. Some are leaving so far away in another part of the planet that nothing would bring them your way. But all things bei...

KNOCKING ON HEAVEN'S DOOR

I saw myself knocking on heaven’s door last night. I was a lonely traveler looking for a place to lay my weary head. My head was heavy and my eyes were growing dim. Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light and I said to myself this would be my stop for the night. From the doorway I could see right inside. It was so beautiful like the paradise that we preach. I saw the gardens and the tables that were set for two, a dove cooing in the branch above. The weather was fair, seemed to have been so for all times, a cool breeze and a bright sky, and winged servants waiting to attend to every want. I knocked on the door but they wouldn’t let me in. they told me I could not enter alone. I turned and left, but my heart was still there. I wanted so much to get in so I came back with a friend and they said it wouldn’t work. “This is you heaven, but you cannot come in like this. Your paradise is only accessible with the one you call your own. I am just a doorman but love is t...

LIKE DANCING WITH BUTTERFLIES

Playing hard to get I feel she’s doing Doing a little tease She gives an opening To close it again Inviting and warm one time The next cold and hostile I would have wearied But I call to mind My younger years So much like today She leads me up She leads me down Gives me hope To take it away again Perhaps she’s playing games Or it’s the way she is I would have wearied But I call to mind My younger years Chasing brightly coloured butterflies One time near another time far Sometimes I caught and sometimes not Still there’s one thing one can’t deny It’s always fun dancing with butterflies Thus these very days Remind me of my younger years For the extension of the chase Is a fun in itself

BOPRROWING FROM DENNIS LEHANE

“Life isn't happily ever after... It's work. The person you love is rarely worthy of how big your love is. Because no one is worthy of that and maybe no one deserves that burden of it, either. You'll be let down. You'll be disappointed and have your trust broken and have a lot of real sucky days. You lose more than you win. You hate the person you love as much as you love him. But you roll up your sleeves and work - at everything - because that's what growing older is.” ― Dennis Lehane , Mystic River

WHO GO YOU SAY I AM

Who do you say I am one you just met and said a hi one you can claim to have met perhaps here perhaps there I'm not so sure but I know this guy who do you take me to be someone somewhere in your list of friends somehow you think you like his style ... I think he's good I think he's nice I'm not so sure but I like this guy Who am I to you once a friend but now more than one one you're sure you love in return he's real he's true And I know I can't be without this guy

I THINK I AM A GOD

I am like God. I love even when I'm not loved, I forgive even when I'm not asked for forgiveness, I'm slow to anger, but could be annoyed by seemingly trivial issues. And I believe I can do all things. No wonder the bible says I'm a god!

THE IMPORTANT THING

The most important thing about love is that you have it to give, even when you don't receive you're convinced it exists and it always comes to those who believe, someone like you

HAPPINESS IS FROM WITHIN!

Do not look for happiness in the things you see, you can't find her. She's not in money, she's not in wealth. She visits health but there's no guarantee you'll meet her the day you try. She's quiet as the shadows and as elusive as the neutrino. But there's a door in your heart, you need to open it. For behind this door dwells one of the most beautiful creature ever to grace this life, just like my ... woman, sweet and nice, bonny and cute, charming and alluring. You open this door by being you, by being true, by giving love, by giving a helping hand. When you do, this beautiful thing will come out. That's happiness. It's like the breaking of a dam, the sourcing of a new spring, and it will flow. And she will water your life. HAPPINESS IS FROM WITHIN!

BORROWING FROM WALT WHITMAN

I SING the Body electric; The armies of those I love engirth me, and I engirth them; They will not let me off till I go with them, respond to them, And discorrupt them, and charge them full with the charge of the Soul.

IF YOU ARE

If you're my girl, I'd like to know much about you, little things ppl don't bother to know. Like your birthday without facebook reminding me. Your favourite colour and your favourite drink. I'd count your 'days' wit you, thus be able to understand your mood. Know your perks and the teeny quirks, your mama and papa whom you like the more, the things you love and the reason why. That my heart is safe even when you're away. These I'll know about you and more, if you're the girl who is mine.

MY SONG OF THE MOMENT

My songs of the moment are songs of fear, fear of love that may stay for good, fear of good that must come from it, the fear of the road I must be forced to take, the new lessons I'll be compelled to learn. my songs of the moment are songs of fear, fear of a love that has come to stay, anticipation of the part I'll be made to play, for I may fail and it's not the end, there'll be patient from the queen of heart, but as always there's a price to pay. Whether it's a gain or a loss in love, the bank is ready to pay the cheque.

IRONY OF LOVING

Joy can bring you tears but tears does not bring you joy. Even as I cry today, I will not hide it. For you do not know if it were tears of joy or tears of sorrow. Love brings tears to eyes like mine, whether it is gained or lost. But one thing is clear, the gain of a love or the loss of one is enough proof that love exists. And the tears for love may not matter whether it is gained or lost because the most important thing about love is that you have it to give.

JOY AND TEARS

Joy can bring you tears but tears does not bring you joy. Even as I cry today, I will not hide it. For you do not know if it were tears of joy or tears of sorrow. Love brings tears to eyes like mine, whether it is gained or lost. But one thing is clear, the gain of a love or the loss of one is enough proof that love exists. And the tears for love may not matter whether it is gained or lost because the most important thing about love is that you have it to give.

THINGS WE SAY

God's time is the best, so we say, but do we believe it? Do we go according to God's time table or do we expect God to follow our own? It seems we deceive ourselves. When things don't go our way, when an expectation seen delayed, we say God's time is the best as if we believe it. But we know our true attitude when God wants us to do today what we want to do tomorrow. In this situation, we don't think of God's time being the best, because we never believed it. So check yourself, is this popular phrase just TAKEN AS A  consolation or a genuine expression of faith in God?

A THIN LINE BETWEEN LOVE AND HATE

They call me Mystic. There's a very thin line between love and hate, and we don't know when we cross it atimes. When you put so much effort to hate a person who lover you, trying so hard to be indifferent, then probably you so much love that person. And if you succeed, you may not have lost the love of that person but also the ability to love at all. You have proved to your very nature that you don't want love and it will grant you your wish. So be careful what you do and how you do them. Love is mystery, and only to a select has she decided to make clear some of her ways. Mystic is still my name!

KNOCKING I WAS

I saw myself knocking on heaven's door last night. I was a lonely traveller, looking for a place to lay my weary head. Then I saw a shimmering light and thought this would be my stop for the night. From the doorway, I saw right inside, and it was really the paradise of our dreams. I knocked on the door, but they wouldn't let me in. They said this is doorway for two. I came back wit a friend but they said it wouldn't work. You either come wit your love or kindly stay outside. And you are my love, so I beg you come wit me. Take my hand let's go knock on heaven's door. Only wit you can I really enter my paradise. So let's go dearie, take my loving hands, we're gonna walk, don't look back!

IN MY MOOD

I'm in my mood, that special mood the thoughts of you evoke in me. I remember the flavours, the treasures in and colours of you. I keep hoping and praying that the little flowers, the romantic gestures and the pieces of care will trip you and make you fall. Yes dear, don't be afraid to fall in love, for here I am to the rescue, willing and able, to catch you.

A Possible Reason

Somethings ought to happen to us so we'll know we're not as good as we think we are. They hurt us, emotional ppl like us cry, we have real sucky days. But when we get right down to it, we will know there's always a lesson to learn. And we don't get only more humble, we also get wiser and stronger. I just pray that my lessons will never pass me by, so my tears will never be in vain.   There are things you knew so that they'll be lessons today. Things happen to make you apply the knowledge you have. This application of knowledge is wisdom. So some things happen to contest our knowledge to wisdom if we can learn the lesson intended. And what have I learnt? That love is like a butterfly. If you want to enjoy it's beauty, you let it go. If you close your hand around it, it is hidden, it is not enjoyed, it may be smothered to death. But if it flies, the beauty will be seen. If it's yours, it will come back to you. Love is free, and should be allowed to b...

Mystic is my name

In the days of every man are the days of his glory. In the life of every man is an object of fear. In the love of every life is an atom of hate.   Some things make sense, some things do not. There is life, and there would be death. Right and wrong, good and bad. And what is?   Whatever is was, it is, and will always be. And that which is, is the truth. The truth for which we live to die, many atimes, without knowing it.   Mystic is my name!
