Ours is a world where everyone wants to enjoy being special to someone, but rarely does anyone ever aspire to make someone else feel special to them.

I hope I am to my friends, the hope and beauty and love, they are to me. I hope they each, indiviually feel unique & special to me.

Shame & Love

Ever felt shame cover your spirit & heart?
Shame so thick, you could cut through it
Shame & pain
The pain of adding salt & lemon to an open wound
Yet you were in love?
It's not quite anxiety or fear
But shame
Shame of loving & the risk of not being loved back
The shame of loving just a bit more
Embarrassed by how much you care
And how much they come to mind
And how much you talk about them
Shame
So ashamed

This!

Last night my emotions were all over the place, and it took a drive through McDs for a McFlurry to make it all better. It was THIS kind gesture by a stranger, now friend, that brought me back up. He drove out of his way, gave ear. Out of his mouth flowed honest timely wisdom & love truths. " Nothing beats communication ",he said.

When you find love, whichever type,
When you do eventually find love
Cause he walks into our lives in varying ways.
Man, grab it by all of you, love it, nurture it and enjoy it. And never let it go. 'Cause it is this love, whichever type, that will go out of his way, get you ice cream, listen. And by just being there, give you.

Thabo, friend. I celebrate you. Thank you.
