Imagine that, and then take your own personal opinion out of things, and deal
with the facts, and apply it to you and me and how we see things that deal with
"time". How would you explain this, you and I, to someone that doesn’t know,
you and I or how we really feel about something? Tell me, and then tell me, are
we what you think, what you know or what you hope to become? Then, tell me,
are you doing whatever you could to make it happen, define it, show how
special or trivial it is, and what are you expecting from what you know, feel and
hope? If I had to explain how I view things and the things I associate myself
with, I would explain it something like this below, so there would be no
mistakes on what I mean, what it means to me and what I hope I means to
someone or thing I am involved with. I would say this;

Dear Such and Such,

First of all my, thank you very much for simply being you. There are many
things I could say, many more I could write and try to display, but to be
completely honest with you, if I tried, it would only ruin how I really feel, based
on what I know before you and this moment. It’s such a vicious cycle, how we
learn what we have been taught, and really only miss things when they involve
the other things that are involved with them in an ignorant and indirect way.
What I mean is, though I am doing well, surviving and not yet fully living life to
my full potential, it is my experiences in life and the way I live it, that has
illustrated things that have alerted me to my pro’s and con’s in wishing to add
to my life. You see I know me, how I am, what I will think, feel and do from
certain things, and though they may or may not be fair or understood by
others, when a certain line, that is invisible mind you to others, but when that
invisible line is crossed, I have no choice based on what I have experienced,
but to become something I know, will be from my own acceptance and doing,
what I will be because of it, what I need to be while within it, and who I will not
be in dealing without it, to deal with the situation I got myself into. So know that
throughout my day, I have many things that productively occupy my time, feed
my ego, make me feel giving, unconditional, positive and humble. Within each
of those moments, I do my best to select the best things that can make me, a
better me from other angles I can not control. I don’t know everything, only the
things I know, therefore, having the ability to learn, absorb and deflect things,
comes with what we know we can handle, will handle, wish not to and more. In
my daily routine of living, I more than likely meet, talk, chat, email and
converse with over 500 different people a day, each and everyday, on a
personal basis. I blindly interact with about 1500 and ignorantly affect about
5000 people a day, directly. Many are friends, some business related
associates turned friends, random, strangers, fans and my family. I also read a
lot, pray even more, dream when I am awake and constantly think about my
next step, as I unconditional leave another, for whomever wants to enter,
needs to leave or doesn’t know there are idle within it. So as I have explained
to you, time to me, is the only thing, I find myself obsessed with. You see time
to me, is the only thing in life, we can not control or get back when it comes
and goes. You can fall in love, be in love, hate, lie, tell the truth, make money,
buy and sell things and more, over and over again. But time, that is something
that is so valuable to me, that I do not waste it; I do my best to invest within it.
This is not how I feel or purposely try to concentrate on, this is how I have live
my life, period. Hundreds of thousands of people in this world, die each day
and night, and I bet you that if you had a chance to ask them, did they know
today would be their last day, 99% of them, would say, "No, and I wish I would
have been doing this or that more, and spent my last moments saying this or
that, even less". That will not be me. I give my all to everything I do, if a person
understands or not, I could care less on what someone thinks, sees me as or
whatever. My heart is in the right place, based on the many times I have
learned and put it back together when it wasn’t in a situation similar to the one
I am about to enter.
