Perception, Perception, Past Perception

Last Night a Lil' Wayne song came on while driving: Miss My Dawgs
Listen Here: http://youtube.com/watch?v=FJpdZWLst-Y

This song always pulls me into illusive memories and bad nostalgia! Sometimes I can't even help but to tear up thinking of the friends, family and lovers I've lost to life and the evident change that accompanies it. Yet, I stay positive by thinking what I have gained in those experiences.Lately, I have been challenging the perception of my past. . .those bad times and heart breaks and beginning to perceive them as part of my positive life journey!

So my dear reader, I give you a challenge, to post or contemplate. . .think of a past experience that brings strong emotion and change it in your mind as positive force in your life, a force of progression (Does that make any sense)!

Here is a poem made a long time ago about past perception friends love and lost:

The way things are ending

I never knew things will end the way it is
Dear friend and love If I ever knew
Itll be like this for us
If I ever knew
we werent going to travel the world and live this love
If I ever knew money and success would come at this cost

If I ever knew my loves my friends

If I ever knew the friend ship we had would end the way it did
If I ever knew we werent gonna make it out together

If I eva knew maybe I would of cherish my timme even harder

Becasue this reality we are living, I know I cant face it
(and i think am living the easier deal)

The reality you are living, my love my friends
Is harder than the day I cant get ut of bed

I love you all and I wish we could travel the rainbows we dreamed of
The places we believed we see

Feel the love that we once had, or maybe still have

If I ever knew this is how things would of ended or

How reality was to begin. . .

To my lost ones, loved ones, friends, and to all
This is how its ending and I havent caught on yet

Dream? Purple? Love?. . .So who are you? "Im a dose of reality"

Imagine: You and I are laughing "jajajajajaja"
But pause, we look around and we see, we are performing on a studio stage of a sitcom
we take the time to step into the audience, because we are not performers, we are not part of a sitcom.

As we sit in the audience and laugh "lol"
We pause and realize this situational humor, only lightly based on reality, is oh so not amusing.
so we leave, through the TV, lights, tech-savy words and electricity.

We end up outside of the TV screen, on your couch. Books around us, TV on, art, breath, sounds of outside. . .life, real life that cannot be encompassed by 26, 48 or 108 minute intervals, only a lifetime!

Thats what and who I am, a person that will write about real life, a stumbler when I notice one, a commentary when I am aggravated or relieved, a poem of mine others, art of others, mini- biography of amazing people I know personally or not.

Welcome, to my world! My opinions and random thoughts! Things I am forecasting for this journey: tirades on reality, other peoples words, links, my awe of a new place I travel to.

Who am I? Dream Purple Love! Not satisfied? Stay Tuned!

Bless
