Theories of Thought - June 2008

I Sometimes Wonder (LINK)

Favorite Links: www.theoriesofthought.com


As I rise this morning and give thanks to the ultimate Power that re-energizes my soul and kick starts my heart, I relish yet another moment in giving to you my, Theories Of Thought. As I am still trudging along and reflecting on the days before this one, I find myself learning more about living, loving it and all it represents, a bit more each and every day. So today like most other days, I am once again eager to see what I view today, to hopefully talk about tomorrow in a forum I feel best suits my dispersal of what I have gathered. I am eager to wake up as my eyes open to only close all three of them at different times, time and time again throughout the millions of moments ahead of me. Now presently, I am in the upright position, with a temporary hunch in my back to reached the keyboard, to try an accurately attempt to write something kinda special. I am in this position for one main reason, and that reason is to relay to you this information as fast as I am thinking about the thoughts I have on my mind right now. And in my mind while being in this position, I am feeling this force around me, molding me into this man that is about to display to you his passion for life. You see I am sitting down with my new dog, Boo-Boo Kitty and listening to some head bobbing music with two of my favorite vices in arms reach. This is the position I am most prone to, when I do my most damage when wrecking shop in my writings and provoking thoughts. That last statement is based on my experience in writing about the things that move me, and right now I am what seems to be, more prime for having the present potential to pump out something kinda potent. I am due (smile). Now in terms of what I am now doing as far as learning a new craft and doing so as a eager-ass-non-monetary-receiv ing-intern for this man that I have grown to love and respect, last night and the image of it today, makes me a bit more confident on my selection to get paid in more ways than I can explain to you right now. I validate that claim because for some reason, this morning created a moment to make me throw back my shoulders, because I am proud to say to you at this moment that in my humble opinion, " I am moving in the direction on my new path with a newfound confidence and focus". An image, or should I say "The Image" came into my mind like never before last night, well today as I write about it, in meeting these two people that are soon to be joining forces. The way I see it from an outsider looking in, is that these people are craving each other like Boo-Boo Kitty bothering the hell out of you for some passionate and soothing attention if you came to my house and sat on one of my couches to relax and chill. But last night, I met a classically stunning looking woman name Tiffany, and her soon-to-be stoic reflection she will turn to see each and every morning named Jamaal. Now I have not explain who they are yet, but if nothing else, they have made my stay where I am at right now within myself and how I look at life, great, and I thank them. If I am right or they are where I wish to be when I am married, and plan on excelling from it when I get there because of it as an individual and person, it would and will be an honor, well worth it and the ride of rides to me if I am selected. So humbly I say hello to you again, and introduce to you my man, her man, Jamaal and his soon to be sidekick and ultimate love on earth, Tiffany. Hey, why we met only God knows, but for some reason, we all came together in this place where each of us came for different reasons, and you and I, are going to do the same in this theory, so hold on. But the thing that spawned inside of me in the aftermath of meeting them, was the image of marriage, love, commitment and more things along those lines. In many ways it had nothing to do with them, but on what they were representing to me at that, and this time, of my life. You see they just got engaged a bit earlier in the day and the glow of each of them together, was overwhelmingly powerful this evening when I seen and met them. You see I wanted to sit and talk to them. No, that is wrong, I did not wanna talk, I needed to converse with them universally and find out what is making them do, what they are about to do and doing? I wanted to unconditionally converse with what they represent via them, and see if what they are about to do and doing is the same, is it more or less, different or whatever than the way I feel about what they are about to do. I needed some small piece of validation to make sure that this is what I wish to do someday soon. Is it all that it is cracked up to be? Is it what they imagined before meeting each other. Is it all or more since being together, or was things less when they were a part? You see they are a cute couple and I am in no position to judge or label them, but I do have this feeling that they would and will tell you they are grown if you asked them a premature-private question on life and love. They are in their mid-twenties and each you could tell, have been through some wars, with very little visible scars to reveal to the naked eye not looking close enough to see them. I am wondering did they just meet by chance and fell in love like you hear or read about in the movies, writings and theories of thoughts. I am wondering are they fact or fiction, real or fake, what I think or what I do not. Did they become who they are by following and writing the unwritten rules on dating, or some other way not known by others. I am even thinking this is a set-up, and for some reason, I was meant to see what I seen, just like you seeing this at this time of your life. But I seriously have now and had so many questions I want and wanted to ask them, because on the surface from the depths I am standing and speaking to them, I feel that maybe they learned something a bit more earlier than me in their lives, which is okay. But if so and they did, can they teach me now and what the price is for admission, because I think and now know, I can now afford it in more ways than just money. I am now available, and I mean that in the terms of being open to love and what it means to be lucky enough to even have a real and true chance of feeling or even being touched by it. I am wondering how long they dated, were they still seeking other options while limiting their choices to the one they made. I wanna know if they swayed away from whom they both are, to only be drawn back by this force that taught them the lessons on life. Have the many lessons on and of life, prepared and applied to them in a very unique way, ways to handle whatever happens when they faced it. If they had fights, battles, manipulative moments, struggles and make up to break up episodes that rival the many civil wars we all have daily in trying to get where they are seemingly at. Have or did they bypass "the go being sneaky" phase. Did they meet up with the animal called, "deception". Have they always been open and honest, and fought through a lie to find the real truth? Did they finally see that in the eyes of its reason for existing, marriage is a ceremony and celebration for life? Their life, their mates life and beyond what they can not yet see for themselves, but have seen through the lives of others. Man, if I would have only asked them one of these questions at this birth of marriage between me and them just meeting, they would have been into some real serious shit! I would have taken them so long and far on this road of questions, that they would have forgotten why they traveled with me in the first place and now questioning, is this what I signed up for in meeting this crazy mother-fucka with his theories of freakin thoughts? Seriously, I would have ruined their day and evening, but maybe help better their perspective on marriage later on if I had start asking them about things the way I really wanted and needed to know. Things that really and literally, had nothing to do with them, but what they are doing and represent to me. They would have been floating mindlessly up "Da Nile" river, because with what I have seen in my lifetime of thirty odd years and counting, I would recycle my information with and at them, and at and with me through them. I would have done it with a massive force to give and receive what ever comes my way once the moments meshed and was over. Because everything on what they are about to do that I represent in my mind whenever I am blessed to do it, is showing its self to me again via these two lovely people in front of me. And I do not mean ruin their day or moment as in ruining it in a bad way, but a dream style reality of all of the nightmares we call invisible and visible scars, when we select the things we do when looking back on them later. I am wondering if he was more concentrating on her shapely figure, bank account figure, did he figure anything or if her FICA was in better shape than her "Seven" Jeans from the back, when he asked her to marry him and what he also has to represent in the same way? I am wondering if they lustfully love each other as a way of taking on the world as one, as they continue to grow as individuals or something much less or far from my definition. I am wondering if each of them before they met each other, seen an image of them in their mind. Who do they pattern their likeness to in their own lives? Who was their influence, who inspired them and whom did they fear of becoming? If each when masturbating at some significant time of their life in building the mate they lust for in every cosmetic way in utopia in a imaginary world, was the other what they thought they would be in the flesh in and on this world. If they were at some time or are the same person or image they imagined. What was on and off in your selection when you cashed in your vote in this ultimate election of beings. Was it height, skin tone, race, age, battle plan on life, sex, money and more. What did they settle on, compromised, was shocked to find better or worse, and the other way around. I am wondering when they reached that pinnacle of that orgasm, was what they seen then, who is in front of them reflecting that image for them to see and become part of. If they realize that what they are committing to, says to me and my definition, that all of the bullshit is over, and this is who each other is, will be with or without them, and a part. Where all of the lies are gone by the truth and how you define it. Man, if this is what they have in each other and if this is the love my grandmother always told me to find, then like Wyclef and Mary J. say, "Someone Please Call 911!". Because if this is it, this is where the superficial impressing part on who you are not, is gone and how it has diminished, takes on a new life while you start living yours. This is where the climb to whatever mountain, is a walk in the park, as long as it is done with each other in mind, body and soul. Where one will face everything from this point, together. Literally from this point on, we have no doubt that we as a unit, have the ability to agree on dis-agreeing, and we can handle that, because we love, respect and trust each other. We will proudly and mindlessly do it together, step by step, inch by inch and moment by moment with each others help. I think about that and sometimes wonder what they really felt in our conversation, told me and will become after getting a dose of me. And not more times than I should or should not be thinking about it, I sometimes wonder, about things and moments like this.

Now to even go a bit farther and further into what I am feeling, thinking and writing to you today, I need to explain what happened to me the day or night before I met Jamaal and Tiffany. I was mindlessly doing what I do in my internship, and seen this classically beautiful woman that was sitting and socializing with her friend. Yes, we made eye contact, flirted without obviously doing so and somehow did not interrupt the natural flow of rhythm in the midst of other people when we connected telepathically. We harmlessly grinned, smiled, nodded and acknowledged the moment, and silently screamed to each other from across the room without saying a word. Now to take you forward, I need to take you back to the day before this one, and all that I am going through in terms of my life right now. I am retired, but now working more like never before on things that I could not or did not allow myself to see while working in and on my career. My current focus has become a bit torn, and I am really now like I have been saying, listening more, absorbing even more and more selective on what I release back out into the world. As I became involved in this conversation about life and love with this woman in ways that did not bring up those two words, I start noticing that I was a visitor to the moment, not the creator of it. We were talking about how we define todays world, and how what was then, is not now, but really still is, in different ways. I spoke mainly about passions, desires, wants, needs, what I am, and what I wish to be and things like that, in our talk. Then while turning the simple talk to a conversation, I noticed that while she agreed, disagreed and learned how to see my point of view while I did hers, something here was forming. But what is important in this segment of the theory I am writing to you, is that you really and deeply get this from this point on. Fully understand if I really had to explain why I am writing this, I would have to tell you about this moment, what made that moment, the many life altering moments a day before and the day before that and so on. So just imagine my course right now based on yours, and lets continue this thing like Jamaal and Tiffany are about to do. Okay, I am a little confused myself, oh yeah, thats right, I was talking about the woman I met. Got it, lets go. Now the woman I had flirted with and now conversing with, basically was the natural and stimulating type I crave if or whenever I am craving, in a woman. She was perfectly flawed in the most classic way, and was basically your not so typical above standard, "great look", if you were or are turned on by what may not turn others off. I write about her look in many of my earlier theories as the ultimate soccer mom slut with a twist, so let me keep going forward in this one to see if the two come together, because I think you all know what I mean (smile). Now before we engaged in conversation, we both went through the rest of the evening doing what we were there to do. But somehow, we both found a way to cross paths to see who would speak, by-pass or act out first in a fashionable, respectful, most close to the real person we wish to show in the beginning. I think everyone goes through this when meeting a stranger and in a coyish way when you finally crossed paths and meet, you make it be known, but not over blown. So when we came close and far enough to both know this moment was about to happen, I stood in and played the part in my role in this real life movie. As I reached out my hand and introduced myself as a gentleman, the little boy, teenager, young adult, male and young man came flashing back through my mind at that moment. Now, with just the touch of her skin, I knew then that I was entering into an arena that I may not be prepared for or have no business being around. Within seconds upon speaking, I am looking at the environment we are meeting in, my path outside of a personal relationship, the good, bad, lines that can be crossed and the ones that could be drawn. Like I told you before, I am where I am at for a reason, to make what I am doing longer than a season, for the rest of my life. My own commitment to something larger than me is not even factored in yet, and I am introducing myself to something that if I am not careful, could tear down years of blood, sweat and tears, faster than it came. But I went for it any way, call me foolish or stupid, but I gave in and came out with a lot more. You see, I later found out that if I had not, I would not have learned a new lesson on the will of a person, and the love they have for something greater than themselves and my definition of it as it pertains to me. The woman I met introduced herself to me after me doing the same a few seconds before, and spelled it out because it had its own unique spelling and phrasing to it. I threw my lineage of examples at her with my signature smile, warmth and passion, and let her know in more than words that yes, her look was "Orville Redenbacher" that night. Yeah it was "poppin like popcorn", and if nothing else, she has a new fan for her selection of attire and the elegant way she wore it, not her being worn by it. But as I asked a series of trivial mainline questions and we became innocently engaged in our conversation, the topics became more specific, detailed and filled with substance. During this romp of verbiage, I had learned that the reason she was out with her friend that evening was to celebrate something she had just accomplished. I was out watching the game and was at a "sports bar" catching the closest thing I could to a real life game without being courtside. But she was there because she was celebrating an award that will never be given materialistically given, but emotionally and morally given out to those that deserve this trophy. She had gone back to college to further her education, but it was for something other than herself even though she will benefit from this experience. She went back to school, college, after dropping out over a decade and a half before this moment, and went back to show her son that was not thinking she understood the level of work it takes to get through todays school system, it was possible to get good grades. She buckled down, prepared to be a mother to her son in a way he could understand, and applied the words she would never have to speak it to him, in her actions. He honestly did not think his mother understood she said to me, so with her being who I have become acquainted with on a whole new level, this woman, his mother, went back to school herself to show him and I quote," If I could do it, You can do it!! You are a part of me Son, and that part I gave to you through me along with other parts, is working just fine". So yeah, now I am not looking at this beautiful woman any more, I am respecting viewing a person with substance that has taught me yet, another lesson on life. Well to help you out a bit, nothing went on beyond that moment or evening in terms on furthering anything on a surface level. I just wanted to acknowledge her to all of you, for the sake of paying it forward, and the sake of applauding her new arrival. But then again, there is a lesson in that moment, and though it may never seem like much later on to those that are now about to face her son that she showed this example to, 20 years from now, I will tell you what I feel can never be forgotten. This young man was taught something by someone that meant something to him. She did something about something, and made nothing something in every single way, and passed it on to many others. And just think, when I first seen this woman, I was not seeing her with the eye that is right above my nose. I was looking at the shell of the person, and when I met her physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually and heard her story, history was made and I proudly met the substance the shell is protecting. It almost reminded me of this woman I met long time ago that told me something that I have always remembered. We were not going out or anything like that, but found solace in each others company. But she told me that she is who she is, based on who she was and wants to become. She told me that to many, she may come off as cold, hard, snobbish, bitchy and more, and in many cases, it is a very accurate description of herself. It is her based on where she is at in her life, and the way she wants to spend it and with whom. But she said it is not something she is doing to harm, but what she wishes to represent in allowing the few that she allows inside of this heart, how big that heart is to them and what they may need. She seriously has a heart of gold that is protected by layers and layers of amour, and that shield will be protected by the same shield they just penetrated if they get in, and it wont be easy to get by. She stressed that those she loves, she loves deeply, not just like a lot or tolerates. And if you do gather and gain her love, it will be well worth the stay there if you can get inside. I think about that and the woman I just met and sometimes wonder what she really felt in our conversation, told me and will become after getting a dose of me. And not more times than I should or should not be thinking about it, I sometimes wonder, about things and moments like this

So now to the theory I want to write about (smile). Naw, I am just stretching right now, getting the kink out of my back, drinking a little bit of coffee, and thinking about changing this Moodsetter CD to go into another thought zone. Boo-Boo Kitty is passed out on the loveseat, and maybe instead of relaxing, I should start writing even faster. Lord knows when she wakes up, I will have my hands full. She is only a puppy, and has all of this energy to get rid of, and lucky me, I am the closet thing she has to spend it on. But man is she cute! She is a blonde haired Pomeranian with the face of a head-turner in South Beach on a summer day. But is not it a trip that she does not know anything materialistically about the man that feeds her daily and picks up her droppings when we go on walks. She just loves her Papi, and plays with me unconditionally out of love at the drop of a hat. But what kind of love is this that she has for me? Is it ignorant love or an unconditional one? Do only what matters to her is that I feed and cuddle her, or that all of the things she ignorantly has at her disposal as far a seeing a vet regularly, eating awesome food, grooming to keep her pretty and more, meaningless? Makes a person sit back and think, is she really stupid because she is ignorant to what matters, or extra smart because it in the end, does not matter at all? Maybe we as humans can learn about ourselves more through watching animals. Maybe they know what we do not or maybe do wish to learn what we are teaching. I tell everyone that speaks to me regularly that the most stimulating and enjoyable time in my life was when I was climbing the mountain, not when I reached it. To me, it is a lot like making love or romancing a person, not just being romantic. I have written before that to me, being romantic, is for an isolated time frame, and is driven by a motive or expectation. Being romanced is everlasting and permanently a brick in the foundation of love, life, communication and passion. For me, making love is a process of many little things that are forever climaxed individually in a recycling type of way, not as one big flash in the pan rush when just having sex. Now I did not always know this, and I am hoping that the couple I mentioned at first, either knows this or learns it along the way. You see, throughout my life, I have met and now reflect on who I was when I met all of these people, and who I am now in evaluating our existence and my part in creating whatever comes or came out of it. Even the people I have been recently been fortunate to meet, they are who they are based on what they envision and have gone through. Who am I to tell tem about me, and hope they understand the many scars that I have gone through. I mean how can I share or even accurately define my vision, when I can sometimes barely see it clear myself? How can I explain something when maybe, they or whomever hears my silently screaming voice, can or can not see or hear where I am at, and trying to go at this phase of my life, because they have their own life to live and figure out? I am not saying I cant or wont keep pushing forward, but I am aware that in some cases, even going back sometimes, allow you to see a little bit more so when you do go forward, your options are more abundant. Take Boo-Boo Kitty for instance, do you really think she thinks about roaming the streets begging for meals out of garbage cans, or does she relish living in a home that could harbor many of her-kind in multiple rooms on three floors in one of the most beautiful cities in The United States Of America? Do you really think she knows the difference, or does she and it does ,not really matter to her that she has got it like that!!. So in all reality, what is it all about? Is it all a bout me looking and viewing this cosmetically beautiful woman, to find a woman that is more beautiful on the inside? Is it about this young couple taking on the world, and facing it as a unit? Is it about my travels, love or Boo-Boo Kitty? What is it really all about? Is it about loving someone blindly, or ignorantly lusting after them with no knowledge on what you are looking for? I honestly get tired and deeply frustrated when people say, "Oh how lucky that you have this or that". I tell you like I tell everyone that will listen, I do not know it all, do not have it going on like that and I am trying to figure out all of this shit myself. All I can tell you is this, I just left that street over there (metaphorically), and what I seen there either steered me here or there and I do not need to go down that street any more unless I want what it had to offer me when I was there before. The right answer, yeah I got the right answer, not the correct one I think, because the right answer and living life is easy. All you need in my opinion is focus, dedication, knowledge and passion. Work hard, work even smarter, and place yourself in a position to best deal and cope with whatever comes your way, good, bad or in-different. Find a partner, establish a solid foundation and keep the lines of communication beyond open to close out the noise. Be willing to lose as much as you can win, and if by chance you do leave something behind, either kill it so it wont bother you later on, or help it so it can maybe help you later when what is trying to kill you, shows its face. What is it all about? That is the question I would like to put out there, because I do not have the correct answer. I have the right answer, the universal answer that is perceived on the surface, but I am not sure that is the correct answer. I think about that and the moment I just met and sometimes wonder what it really felt in our conversation, told me and will become after getting a dose of me. And not more times than I should or should not be thinking about it, I sometimes wonder, about things and moments like this.

I was recently asked by many of my viewers one way or another individually, why do I think the divorce rate was so high in the world? Now let me firmly say that I am no way, an expert on this subject. Second, while wanting to comment on this and have been blessed to have travel around the word a few times, I wasn not really trippin on who was married and who was getting divorced. Now yeah, somewhere in the background of the noise pollution we have somehow learn to block out, I have heard this or that on the subject. But it was never really a priority for me to really find out why, though I hope I do not fall into that statistic whenever I do walk the isle. I feel that the question I just asked you to ask yourself, is something that all first depends on the people, the circumstances, the age range of those getting married and much much more. In may ways and even though that question seems at first to be pretty specific, when you actually take the time to give it its just due and try to answer or define it, you start realizing that like with everything else, there are many sides, angles and more you need to look at, before even looking at the initial question. But for the sake of argument and cohesion, lets just start with one subject or side to the whole that has more sides to it than we know, and confront this question as one, piece by piece. But maybe we wont need to do that, because I guess they did not ask me to research and find the actual answer, but phrasing it in its true manner the way I might see it. So I will say and start by stating the facts, I have never been married. I have been close a couple of times, flirted with the word to a couple more women or less, and hope to travel down that road one day sooner than later. Being single and never really married, I do not think I can honestly speak from experience or very accurate on the subject. I mean yes, I have my views and theories on the subject like I wrote before, and in many ways, can think that maybe an outside view in looking in on this, may be useful and insightful. So yeah, what the heck, let me put my two cents in the pot, and lets see how much we can take out with interest, when this is over. Is that a deal to you? Cool, but if you do accept that deal, I better back up and tell you a little bit more about me to let you know my path, my experience with the subject and how I have viewed those I have met, married, existed, still are together and or broke up. Now I said that I really have not been married before, scratch that, I said to you that I have never been married before. That is what I wrote so excuse me for lying, but in so many ways I am a bout to explain, that is still and really true. I was married once, when I was young and hungry, and when I did this act, I manipulated the system to fit my own selfish needs. I am not saying I am proud of this act now that I am older, but at the time, it seemed like a good idea at the time when I did it. I guess in starting off this theory in the manner I did, I guess it would only be right for me to briefly explain what happened. When I was young and like one of my favorite groups "Rage Against The Machine" sings in one of their songs, in my youth, I would use the title "Calm Like A Bomb", in some of the choices I made. I have never been a bad kid or got into trouble to where I could wear that jacket many wear everyday as an asshole, in my opinion, but quietly inside of me when I was testing the limits of life, I did some sneaky shit on the down low. Like while in the military and wanting to live off of post, I just had to do it and in my opinion, just needed a way to do it once I found out how. It was kinda of a mini challenge in a way, but mostly, I wanted to live by myself and have a little bit of freedom in the Army. So I married a childhood girlfriend for about, 45 minutes, that is what I did. Yeap, thats right, I had a memorable, passionate long-term relationship that went from pillar to post faster than you just read that last statement. This sacred ceremony lasted from the time the city clerk at City Hall said, "Hey Mister, Do You Take This Woman" on that Friday day in San Francisco, to the time it took for me to leave that room, walk to the elevator and go up two floors to hear the clerk in the annulment section say, "Thank you, here is your receipt and have a nice day". This 5-minute ceremony was a one-stop relationship that was the courtship, sexual escapades, engagement, marriage, honeymoon and divorce all rolled up in one little nice and neat package that I experience about as long as you have been reading thus far. You may think I am crazy, smart, insensitive or whatever, but I did it for many reasons that you may or may not find offensive, funny or smart as hell. Now I know one thing I might wanna know if I was reading this, and I would wanna know, is if money in the formula? The answer, yes, but not the deciding factor is what I would answer to you, whomever and myself. I would then wonder was this a tantalizing thrill ride seeking seeker looking for a superficial rush on a ridiculous self ramifacating ride to be or legitimize his title as a bad boy, naw, not really, thats not me. But I can tell you that what I did then, I would not do now but do not still do not regret it then, and that also has many reasons I can write about now. But the two main reasons were this; the girl I was messing around with could not get by on her half full ride scholarship for being a cheerleader at UC Berkeley, and was having a hard time studying to get good grades while needing to work a part time job to get a little bit further beyond her own expectations. We were already friends with benefits, so by her getting married to me, she got free medical, dental, got to shop at the PX and other little things that added up to a lot. By me getting certain allowances and extra pay to live the married life, I had a few more tools to build this life I was living, and could share it with the one that helped me get it. I was on one end of California and she the other. We were in two hours travel distance of each other, but not too close to just drop by and see each other on a whim because we both had schedules that were demanding. Not a bad deal if you are young, kinda like the person you are hooking up with at the time and smart because you are now making ends meet, on many levels. Reason Two; this is the dominating reason and deciding factor, because I wanted to live off post and have a place to call my own. When I was in the military and you were single, you just could not live off post freely because one, you did not make that much extra money and two, the chances of you getting in trouble were much higher when you add it all up. Thus comes in that I have never been one to get into really big trouble, and I have never really been a big party guy, drinker, drug user or shit starter. So seeing how I thought I was grown when I was just a few years from being able to vote, I tested the system. But I wanted a place of my own. You know what I mean, I mean it was cool when I had a roommate in college and we partied, had fun, people over and shared the microwave and stuff. But there comes a time when and where you just want to have a place you can walk around the house naked and call your own. Yeah I said it and yes, I mean naked, kinda. I do not mean naked all of the time, but whenever you might want to and do not think about it. Think about those times when you can not sleep. Wanna snack, watch some mindless television in the wee hours of the morning on the front room couch or take an ole midnight stroll to take a leak. Its not that you wanna wave your Willie Wonka around to all of the Peeping Toms in your neighborhood or complex. Or flash your headlights to the kinda cute pervert that watches you when you pull up to your home, but the freedom to roam within your own home at will without any thought. Yeah, like that. Anyway, to put it all in a nutshell, that is why I got married and that is my experience on the subject, first hand. Lets move on (smile).

So back to the question on why I think the divorce rate is so high. Well I can start by pointing out the difference to me in many relationships if they happen or not, are in ones perception on fantasy and reality with the person they decide to take this plunge with. Though many times a fantasy can become a reality, to me, it is in the choice you make to select which one you tackle first and how you handle it and the next one, second. To me, when you mentally imagine your partner or mate, you paint this portrait in your mind, even before you meet them. You argue with them when you are with someone else, and love them unconditionally when you are all alone. You create this invisible person, and then calmly start painting the colors of their character to fit what you think your shade of the array of colors is, in your own mind. You play with them seriously, and joking with the fact that they may or may not exist. You then go about your day, mindlessly looking for them in crowds of people that pass you daily. You look for signs, signals and or drift towards areas unconsciencly, in hopes of discovering this person you have created in your mind. You stand firm while sitting through date after date, meal after meal, watching others doing the same thing in different ways and do your best to re-construct one image into another. You become disappointed that where you are not in life, is where you want to be. You think of your opinions, why you have them, where you just left and if it was so bad to not feel so good. You start defining the word good. How you define it, others you know and the world and wonder if you are aiming your sights a bit too high or getting scoped out a bit too low. You are firmly flexible in your willing to bend and not break, and from further involvement, you remove your spirit from the situation you find yourself in, while allowing your body to wilt in the chair, two feet from where you have just left. Now this is in your mind, and you are still searching and settling, and losing yourself in a place you have now found to be your new point of reference. This all goes on when we are young, and what we start discovering through trials and tribulations is that what we thought happiness is, just might be something else. So then you go through life. Filling in empty time slots with things that entertain you. You hang out with people that are like you or see things the same way that you do, and then you discover, we may have the same interest, which is why, we are in the same situation. So now you back track, and start pressing the issue on if this is worth that, or that not worth this. Now remember, this is still in your mind and self-absorbed thought process in dealing with daily life, and you are still looking. This is a trip, and you have not even boarded the plane yet (smile). So now you meet someone. You see them, sum them up faster than my wedding ceremony and with much less meaning, and smile, frown or keep things mutual. You are doing it moving, and if it can somehow catch up to you, you might give it some time to show you what they are or may be, working with. You see things in them that meet certain things you think you are looking for, and they see the same in you, so now the game is on. Not game you play, but one that is playing through you. You talk, not converse, but talk in a manner that is universal and throw out hints, trigger words and more, to gain a reaction you can further this recycling of emotions you have not yet displayed on. If things go well, you move closer and open up a bit more. You test the waters, push the boundary walls you think you can see and touch and do it slowly to see how far they will move. You then back up off of them because at this time, you do not know who built the walls and how much of your weight, they can stand. Also at this time, you think you know what and where those invisible walls are, so if need be, you can find them later on if you feel you might need them adjusted to the building you are now starting to construct. You see potential to improve certain things, and see how you could improve also if you make something that is not there yet, something that could be there later. You sum the person up again, and then you step a few more steps closer to where it seems to be a bit better than where you are at. But where are you right now, you do not know. All you know is that it is starting to look better than where you were at, so you keep doing it moving. Then you reflect for what seems like the gazillionth time for the first time within this moment, step back and move forward in how much you trust that your choice was better than your last one. Then you reflect on yourself, beat yourself up while loving everything everyone else says is your best quality, and then you sum all of that up. Now along the way, you have gathered a little bit of baggage, but its okay because in some of those situations, it was not your fault and you got distracted. Some good, some bad, but you then think and understand that someones garbage can be someone elses gold, and then you try an figure out, is the person you are not concentrating on in the jewelry or waste disposal business. You reflect again and sum that up, and now you are formulating another image, but this time, it is a blend of the fantasy you already had and the reality that is facing you. So which one should you satisfy now is the question, and that is why I said in defining the two and the results of your actions, is vital. I mean vital in every way imaginable, because that choice is based many things, and it all starts with and on you and your situation and how you see things. So before going to where you want to be, the one you select first and second, can and will determine the one that ends up being your last. But back to the theory, I think I am on a roll. But do not tell any body.

Now one other reason I think the divorce rate is so high, is because there are now, more people, more options, more avenues to search and travel to find what we think is lost and most importantly, less reasons to stay together, once you reach a certain level. Our society, the human race, has been so accelerated, that we are spending more time on trying to make more time, that we forget about the time we do not have when we get it, once we give it away to the very reasons we are doing it in the first place. Its amazing on how we forget that the reason we are more than likely in the position we are currently at or in, is because we did not remember why we did not want to be where we were at when we left there. It is a reckless abandonment we often do to ourselves, and maybe it is a motivational tool we all have inside of us that triggers this, or maybe it is just we are all stubborn in many areas. It might be because we often forget or do not fully acknowledge in an honest way that we never took out the time to keep looking for what we had imagined before the situation faced us, and settled some where along the way in trying to get there. That is just life, and part of the whole in trying to answer a question that has many parts. Now take me for example, I am literally drawn to a certain type of woman. I am one of the most strongest man I know, and can back that up by telling you that I have seen, been through, created and dished out some shit. Some of it warranted, some not, I am no angel by any means, but also not, a devil. But based on my experience, the shit I have faced, did not see coming, dealt with and still struggle to free from my mind, good and bad, was heaven and hell all rolled up into one. I am not praising it or planted it in the ground, but I am just putting that out there. But as strong as I am and as strong as I think I am, I am helpless to a certain look, demeanor, thought process and history of a specific type of woman. When I have came across this type of woman in the past, all logic goes out of the fuckin window, seriously. Its not personal on how I will act, it is not planned, staged or anything manufactured by a preconceived notion I have trained my mind and body to do once stumbled upon. I simply, lose my fuckin mind. Now in saying that, also understand that to or for me to see this type of woman, I must be in a certain mind frame, time in my life and conducive situation for me to even see and view her for what she truly is or want me to see. If I am not in balance at that time, or if two of the three is working and the one not, I can not see her because I myself do not have my full sight. I can see part of her, or sections of the whole. But until I can see that what I am seeing is whole from my own personal perspective and perception, I will always see those parts of a female, not the whole woman. That might seem fair, unfair or whatever, but I am just saying that the person I just wrote about, is me. So in knowing that, once I can find my sight to see the whole, anything before or after that, will always be parts to fill a void, and the whole still waiting for me to see it for what it is. That is another difference in a fantasy and reality to me, and like I said before, the one you select first and second, is vital on who you end up selecting last. So now when two people come together in my opinion, there must be a combination of things to keep this one thing going. There must be stability in important, but not all areas, and I will explain what I mean later if you hold on. But there must be the ability to generate, maintain, store, invest and imagine yourself in every situation good or bad, with this person, forever. There must be a hidden mystery that is always answered in pieces that make up the whole, and confident trust factors that range from being reliable in many important levels, and supported in others. Now once again, that is my opinion, once again, so hold your dam horses, I will explain what I mean later on once you calm the hell down (smile). I know I can string things along sometimes, but have you ever thought that the other people that read my stuff might not be as quick as you? Sorry I had to go there, but some people are really impatient and I can respect that. But have you ever talked to a person that you could see asking God to grant them patience, and they want it right now!?!? Thats who I was talking about, not you. But back to the theory. Now attraction can come in many forms, and what maybe important to another, may not be high on the list for the other one, but there needs to be a stimulating balance to keep things equal. I have always said now, that one of the most important things in a relationship, are the things you deem important to you and the other person. Even though one person may not have this, if it is not important to the other that does or knows how to get it, it does not really matter unless it is an issue by the person that has it. You have to be with the person according to the moral God you unconditional praise, and live your commandments according to the laws you lay down before even thinking about taking things this far. You have to share this person as the most suited person for you to the world, when you are talked about quietly and seen by those that are still blind. This is the person that annoys the hell out of you, calms you, loves you, puts up with you and have selected to share or leave your name and what you represent to this world when you are gone. This person is it for you, and even though many other things are pulling at you to do this or that, you are pushing them away and saying, "I am cool. I am just fine where I am at and good luck to ya". This person you are now with, in your eyes, is not a person, but the fantasy you never forgot, before it became your reality. Now if you were wondering how I was going to break it down, there it is. See. I told you I was going to explain it. Hope you got it. If not, read it again. Next page.

So in closing this out, I do not know if I am qualified to answer the question giving to me by you my loyal viewers, and ask your opinion on what you might think. You do not have to write to me, you can if you want, but maybe to someone else, yourself or mentally think about it and do it when you have time. Because this question is kinda cool, and I could go all day on this topic. Marriage is a big thing to me. Its the cornerstone to stability. It is the ultimate thing two people can do as individuals to make up a complete unit. It is special, sacred and far from what I did when I was young, stupid and greedy. Marriage to me, says to the world, "fuck you or fuck with what I am all about in what ever way you do it! My world is over here!" It is cool, fun, a job, career, excitement and more all rolled up in one". But like I said, I do not know that for sure, because what I remembered at my ceremony was, "cha ching" and freedom. But maybe that was it and what it was, not what I made it out to be to fit me. Maybe I had it for a few minutes and let it go. Maybe that ceremony that brought to me freedom, helping out somebody else and money, was it? Wait a minute, I am trippin just like you because while writing this, I am finding out something I maybe, purposely lost for date after date, night after night in the single life. What the fuck!?! Okay, I am back, sorry about that, I kinda went to that place I just left. But maybe marriage is a combination of many things not yet defined by us I think. Maybe our world has become so polluted, that we are cleaning it up to only make the same mess our ancestors created for them for us to see. Maybe this is a cycle, and even if it is a good or bad re-run of your life, you are living it. Maybe the fantasy can never become reality, but then again, maybe it can. Maybe right now, you are reading the same thing you read a while back, but now only understand that what you are reading, you wrote and never put it down on paper. Maybe you are laughing, nodding your head, smiling and tripping off of the fact that I am actually writing down some shit that has you keep reading the words, theories and thoughts I sometime call, diarrhea, because it is smooth (smile). Maybe the divorce rate is high, and the ones getting divorced, are looking at those that are not and saying to their mate, "we do not have that, and I love you enough for both of us to be happy and at least, seek that kind of love out elsewhere" Maybe if we really get enough time to find out what the divorce rate of animals were, that could help in our research like many schools and institutions do. What about researching birds, fish, animals and insects. Yeah, that would be cool, lets create a device that translates Ant language. Yeah, there are billions upon billions of them, and they come and go like the many moments in life. So thats where I am going with this. I had finished another writing / theory, and after doing so, went outside and sat in the lawn chair to recovered from putting my all into my thoughts on paper before this one. I was sitting back, coffee in one hand, cigar in another, inhaling and exhaling to try and find the balance I call, my balance. I had just left my reality, and now going to my fantasy. A place where I could find peace and stop the civil wars I sometime fight with within myself. A place that I know will stimulate me when I get lazy. My place, my reference points on where I am, where I was and where I am going. But there I was, looking at the trees, the flowers and then, some insects. They were interacting from a distance, being aware each other was there silently, while doing what they feel and think, they are supposed to do at that time loudly. Then comes a butterfly, floating with its beautiful color and grace. Minding its own business, and just going through the air I had just in or exhaled. In a strange way, it moved and floated in a way that hypnotized me for a few seconds, while awkwardly dancing to perfection, as I admired this moment. Then came out a bee. Doing the same thing as the butterfly, but in a different way. Flying, bumping off of more shit than the flies I see in the corner of my eye on my dogs shit I forgot to clean up yesterday. I made a different noise, but spoke the same language, more or less. And at that time like never before, I started to think about life, the question, my place in it and how absent I have been in savoring it. The good times and the bad. The things I have done and the things I want to do. The things I did then and how, and the things I do now and why. My path, my trail, my footprints and more, all come to the forefront when I first started this theory. The image of life, the dreams, nightmares, and reality. The different things that are really the same like the two flying things that inspired this theory. How the butterfly was once a cocoon, and went through this process to become something was all view as beautiful. Then the bee, born into this life and will sacrifice its own life to protect what it believes in more than anything, its life. The Butterflies and Bee Strings, sometimes, joy, sometimes pain. But still, its something that makes everything, what it is. Thats my comment and theory on the subject, and take it for what it is worth, a fantasy or reality. And please don't forget another aspect to all of this, I havent even touched on the fact on how the other person besides you or me is looking at us, this, where they are at, what they see, the situation and more. That's a whole other animal, question, theory and more on the same topic, and a even more indepth question we can not answer because we can not honestly speak on how someone else deeply feels or really thinks. Think about it. Thanks for joining me and do not forget to remember, the choice is yours. Make it or it will make you. Enjoy The Moment.
