Losing Someone You Loved
Wouldn’t it be odd to lose someone and never acknowledge that person, especially if it were a close friend? At least a phone call, a text message, an email, even a Facebook message right? It may seem impossible, but millions have already done it, and many more continue to follow. If you think losing someone you love is hard, try losing someone you loved.
Try losing someone only you control, and yet feel no authority. Try losing someone made “perfectly”…imperfect by God. And I hear people crying about losing petty jewelry and cash. How bout you try losing someone so beautiful, so powerful, so unique, just the way they sit. Try losing…you.
Many of us find ourselves lost at times, not in the event we claim, but in the fears we’ve built to protect ourselves. We’ve created a nightmare within our own dreams. We look to be accepted, but yet, have failed to accept ourselves. We consider our dreams fairy tales, instead of possible realities. We continue fighting an army we lead.
We’re so focused on how to get along and build relationships with different people, we forget about building one with ourselves. Not that sit alone to self type of type of building, but that self-awareness. 
That how do I live free with myself as to not be thirsty of the acceptance of this world, but rather, a contribution just by living and appreciating my life type of building. Just to realize, that these problems we continue to build our world on can be evaporated, just by showing appreciation, for life.
Our we complaining, or are we thankful for this life we currently live? Think about it, if you can afford to complain, you’re doing something that many would love to be doing, at your very moment of complaint, living. What ever it is you love to do, just do it, and acknowledge the many people you meet along the way, because you have one responsibility, and one responsibility only. That you maintain a smile for every time you’re given a chance to wake up in the morning…and you’ll be blessed with a day you deserve.
Close your eyes and go back to that place you were first formed, and recreate yourself to whomever you feel fit, breaking free from the fears that continue to hold you back from living. As we look to be accepted, why not accept as well. We’re all beautiful, and we all shine in our own special way. Ever think about a puzzle? Before and after? Now look at the people around you. Would they be that interesting if they were just like you? Don’t complain about your neighbor, there’s something special you just may be missing out on. Open up, guide your fears and stop slaving for them. Live, learn and grow…it’s time you gain back that someone you once loved, and fall in love all over again. All we have, is this very moment…live it!

The Truth Is
The truth is…we all yearn for that one special someone. Regardless of the conditioning the mind goes through, the heart never budges. I hear it all the time, “Marriage? Me? Never!” The truth is, no matter what the mouth speaks, the heart continues to burn for that one true connection that naturally keeps it beating to it’s own tune.
We continue to run with no where to hide. We continue to speak with words of contradiction, for no other words speak louder than the heart itself. You’re saying, “I’m done,” meanwhile, your heart is saying, “Save me!” The truth is, only the truth can free you from the world of lies you continue to sleep in. I see the toughness you camouflage yourself with in order to protect your interior emotions from being “misused, accused, and abused,” you say.
The truth is…the same thing you continue to run from, is what you, in turn, bring to yourself. The truth is…our every experiences are contributions to growth, nothing more, nothing less, only if utilized wisely. I see the power in you, but I also see the fear. I see the heart’s acknowledging of truth, but I also the the mind’s constant combat from pain. Be careful from the things you run, as they may be the things you run into. The truth is…the lies eventually fade, but the truth is something that lives on…

How Do I Regain Her Attention?
Question from Joel, Hollywood, Ca
Q: “I have a question about this girl I like back home in washington state; (I’m at school for music in Hollywood). This girl I like is actually one of my buddies ex’s and I’ve known her for a few years. When I went home for break about a month ago, we were hanging out a lot and I stayed over at her house like 4 times, no sex, but went out to some bars and got a little drunk a few times. But each time I stayed over we cuddled more and were making out more, and I ended up almost having sex with her; but she apparently has some kind of a born again virgin church thing, that I really don’t think is going to matter because when I got back she texted me about how much she regrets not messing around with me and how hot for me she was. At first she was hitting me up like crazy when I got back and I even got her to send me some very sexy pictures that were pretty much nude; and she had me send her a couple basically nude pics which she said she really liked. Then we were talking back and forth (at the beginning of the quarter the first week back) about how she missed me and the things she wanted me to do to her, how she thought I was probably good in bed, how she wanted to shower with me, how she hopes I can breathe through my ears (my mouth servicing her) next time I see her, hows she thought about me when she ‘took care of herself’, and how wet she was, ect. We halfway made plans to have her fly down for thanksgiving and she was going to stay with me and we were going to “really have some fun”, and also go to some different places and how she was going to jump into my arms at the airport. I’m not very good with girls but sometimes I can pull em in, and I tried to keep things hot until she got here. Things cooled off a bit, and I’m not always sure what to say over text messaging. Then I talked to my buddy that went out with her for a couple years-(I know, this is a pretty if-y situation)- and he said she was blowing his phone up for a couple days at least, but he wasn’t interested. I gave her a break for about 2 weeks because I felt like she wanted to talk to me for some reason, so I gave her space. We’ve been texting a bit lately but she doesn’t have the same vigor as she used to-possibly due to me. I still want her to come for thanksgiving. I do like her romantically and as a person, and definitely want to make her come. I don’t really know who to talk to. This could be a good learning experience and I think if I do this right it will work the way I want.
–How do I get her warmed up again the way I did back home, get her texting me and giving me feedback(maybe some more picture too), and get her to come down here on thanksgiving??
Any advice would be VERY MUCH appreciated!”
A: It’s funny you mention this because it was a topic of discussion a couple of days ago. The truth is, the fire the phone brings is only temporary. See, talking to girl on the phone is only story telling, until every spoken word turns into action. Remember when you were young and your parents told you that you’d get this toy you really wanted only to end up with nothing? Well, after a while of receiving these empty promises, you begin to lose faith. Even if this event were to come up again, I doubt that it would still matter to you. The same goes for these constant phone conversations. At the beginning, you speak of how wonderful things were when you were together. Then, you speak of all of the things you’d like to do again, and more. After that, you speak on making it happen. Unfortunately, after constant talks of making it happen, it’s a apparent to you both, that it just ain’t happening. What does this mean for you? Well, it means that the only thing that can get the wheel to spin is an actual step towards making these prior words true. Words may sound soothing, but it remains temporary unless action is applied in making it real. At the end of the day, she lost the vigor because all the empty words that were given, faded away. One thing I always tell myself is words fade while actions stay. It’s important to always represent your words through action in order for it to remain real and true. I guess what I’m trying to say is…act!

The Return of Self-Confidence
The realities of life speak so much, but we chose to live the life that was handed down so that, we ourselves, remain slaves. We speak of the things we now stand for as if we have any idea where the root of our reasoning was derived from. We lost the most important thing that would refrain us from being vulnerable to this world of “slavery,” self-confidence, for only the return of self-confidence has the capability of affecting many in a such a major way.
We’re living in a society that dictates our every demeanor. The way we walk, the way we talk, the way we move. Blinded by the distractions of the “well-known,” we build ourselves to be a mirror of the person they were “built” to be. I guess they’re just doing their job of handing down “tradition.” The return of self-confidence enables one to regain control of self. Can you imagine what this world would be with billions of confident souls?
Think of a world where a woman respected herself enough to let her inside shine instead of exposing her skin. Think of a world where a man acknowledged and used his inner strength, rather than depending on his physique to solve his problems. Picture a world where the success of our neighbors, equals the success of ours…impossible, you may think, but it’s possible!
Through my life experiences, I’ve come to realize that the control of self empowers you, but had it not been for self-confidence, we’d never break away from “the in.” Think of a relationship with two confident people. Could you imagine how powerful they’d stand? When you’re confident, the words of others neither make or break you. When you’re in control of self, your actions aren’t dictated by the actions of others, rather, by the better judgement you posses. 
The sad thing is…many of us are still waiting for someone or something to serve this confidence to us on a sliver platter, but the truth is, only we can manifest it. Although some may say, “Easier said than done,” I’m here to say that it’s as easy as flipping a switch. It’s nothing but a mere decision we all must make if we are to ever experience life in another light. It’s such beautiful thing when you can, not only grow, but also feel the growth in the process. Oh how I long for the return of self-confidence, don’t you?
Question from Melanie, Canada
Q:Hi! Ok so, at the end of the last school year, at the Country Ball, my crush asked me to dance with him. It was so sweet. He was shy, held my hand, brought me to the dance floor, and we were very close while dancing. He also told me I smelled good. Then, we didn’t really see each other afterwards. We were both really busy, and since all our activities were done, we didn’t cross paths at school. Usually we are on the student council together, sport teams, etc. Then, the day after school was over, at the grade 12 prom, I was volunteering and he was the pianist. His parents are teachers so he had to stay late, as did I to clean up. While I was waiting for my parents, he came and said hi, we chatted for a while, then they arrived so I left. This year, I constantly find him staring at me. His locker is right behind mine, we are on the student council together, his best-friends are my close friends, we play the same sports (but not team, hes on the guys team, I’m on the girls team, lol)… So you can see that there are many opportunities for me to talk to him and I see him a lot. And I’m not really shy. We are good friends. I think he’s into me, but just a little shy. How do I tell him that YES, I like him, sort of thing. Should I tell him I enjoyed the ball last year (even if its been a while). When and where should I tell him? what should I tell him? Should I even tell him? LOL I need some advice, please and thank you! God Bless.
A: I would love to help you in telling this young man that you like him, but the truth is, that isn’t where your problem lies. See, as a man with great faith, I believe that you have no problem whatsoever in expressing yourself. The fact is, there is a fear that is present, preventing you from expressing yourself. Sometimes we choose not to act because of an unwanted prediction we’ve already played out in our minds. We use our minds as a DVR, playing an event that has yet to present itself. I believe that the truth should always be set free. We spend too much time focusing on the outcome of our actions instead of focusing on the action itself and what it means to us. Remember, not every battle is made to be won, but every battle fought should always be a meaningful won. I always say, if I’d ever choose to regret, I’d choose to regret the things done, then the things undone because the past could never be replayed. At the end of the day, all you’re left with is…”I wonder what would’ve happened had I….”
