My Mouth, Hold On

There are mouse traps & there are mouth traps! One may catch you rats, while the other is to catch you ratting. The traps make victims of the simple & simpletons. And as with all snares, going in is easy & unintentional, but coming out, even with utmost intentionality, is difficult!

Under The Influence!

It was Buck Owens that wrote the song titled, “Under the influence of love”. Here’s the second stanza: “For I was under the influence of love; I wonder now what I was thinking of; Yes I was so in love I let her hurting me though I knew better; under the influence of love”.

Being criticized is not an emergency situation! It may not even be critical; unless it is for killing unarmed young protesters! Chei!

Ready For The Journey

Mountain climbing is supposedly a fun activity. And it’s not Brazilian samba. It may be fun ascending to the top of the world & having a clear view of everything for miles all around, but getting there takes strength, skill, supervision, steadfastness & succor.

We Move

“We move!” as meaning any of these three: carrying on regardless of the situation; coming in agreement with your ‘peeps’ to go for something; or letting slide something that was supposed to happen, to continue your hunt.
