A man will treat a woman almost exactly the way he treats his own interior feminine. In fact, he hasn't the ability to see a woman, objectively speaking, until he has made some kind of peace with his interior woman.

Presenting statues of honor to reporters for covering an earthquake is like presenting a first prize to a doctor for performing surgery.

The Man Who Gifted Me Nothing, But A Patronym

The Son of a monster, and a very proud Mother:
I have lived a very humble life, and would wish for no other,
But if I had one regret it would be my blind allegiance
To a man that did not deserve the same-the balance
Of my life since that fateful Christmas day,
Has been filled with bitter confusion-I pray
That I will one day stop blaming myself for what he did
By never cowering from it, the way he hid
From his demons and ghosts, presenting a narrow view
To a Son who loved him, yet who never knew.
Had I known then what I know now,
I would have rid myself of the disdain I show now
For all I know he was, in spite of outward appearance.
I carry shame for my continued adherence
To the image of the man I thought I knew:
An idyllic image of a Father, which got me through
And past all of the hate I thought I had for him-
The man who gifted me nothing, but a patronym.

Art of Symbol

Whether meaningful, or just beautiful
Whether easy to understand, whether full of mystery
A simply shape, or a detailed design
Symbol is created

From nature, from imagination
From dream, from experience
Whether adaptable, whether unchanged
Symbol is taken

For secrecy, for practical
The color, the code
To unite, to protect
Symbol is used

God's sign, devil's mark
Good luck, bad omen
A clear help, or a hidden warning
Symbol is interpreted

A great novel is concerned primarily with the interior lives of its characters as they respond to the inconvenient narratives that fate imposes on them. Movie adaptations of these monumental fictions often fail because they become mere exercises in interior decoration.

Symbol of love

When you and your wife had your baby, he became the ultimate symbol of love that you two share.
He represents a love that will stand the test of time and that shines brighter than a flare.
Some people think that wedding rings are the symbol of love between a man and his wife.
But wedding rings are just pieces of metal and they can't touch the symbol of love that comes from this tiny life.

Hostility pervades

Be they two as friends or kin.
It is a fact that they keep ties
In a disguised hostility
With an outward hospitality.

Outward Bound

OUT upon the unknown deep,
Where the unheard oceans sound,
Where the unseen islands sleep,--
Outward bound.
Following towards the silent west
O'er the horizon's curved rim,--
Or to islands of the blest,
--He with me and I with him--
Outward bound.

Nothing but a speck we seem
In the waste of waters round,
Floating, floating like a dream,--
Outward bound.
But within that tiny speck
Two brave hearts with one accord
Past all tumult, grief, and wreck,
Look up calm,--and praise the Lord,--
Outward bound.

Symbolized

There is a symbol,
On everything you claim you own.
There is a symbol.
Stamp on everything in this life.
Everything is marked.
And highlighted by a brand,
Nearing closer to the forehead...
Of your fellowman.
And you leave your world unpure?
'Let no man worhip any gods before ME? '
Said He.
The Almighty.
And many have replaced Him in their lives,
To deny it but are quite...
Symbolized!

Presenting yourself

Presenting yourself
In all poems
And directing me
To write
This and that
Calling these fine
You made me great.

Living in this earth
I'm thankful to you
I'm just an instrument
In your hand
I'm getting self respect
Honour with family
Kith and kins
Friends and well-wishers
You appreciate me
And you made me great.

Presenting yourself
In everything and
Doing everything
Only for me
You made me great
Thanks and it is
I know not sufficient.
I'm nothing
You are really great.

Elements, Death And Life

Love is like a rose
Rose is the symbol of love
Death is like a wind
wind is the symbol of fading away

Life is like a tree
It grows til it dies
Hate is like a fire
The fire grows intill it hurts somone

The symbol of life is a tree
Trre will burn of hate
The wind blow the hate away
Untill it comes backs

Death is not the opesit of life
Death comes in many natural ways
Like this poem
Like this message

Love is like a drug
You get addicted
You will get burned
At the same time it is good to keep

This love, this hate
The life, the death
Fire, earth, wind and water
Elements of creation

The Cross

The cross is a symbol,
It reminds us of Jesus and all that he did for us,
All the things he sacrificed for us,
To open the gates of heaven for us,
For us not him,
God Gave his only true son so we could go to heaven to find ever lasting happiness,
To live with the creaters of life,
It is a symbol that shows us even in the darkest of places there is light.

Wondering Around

As a symbol of life,
From mitochondrion to anthropology;
As asymbol of life,
From prophylaxis to dermatology;
As a symbol of life,
And of the muse of the birds that sings at times;
For i will dance on this flowing water!
And to take you for a ride on this love.

Wondering around,
To all the women that i have loved before;
Floating in the air,
To all th countries that i have visited before;
But today i am like the course of your problems,
Because you are with a child.

Visions of an open world,
From human hair to learn a times;
But when one thing dies,
Another thing starts to grow!

Fundamental of Liar Chapter V: Fact

A lie with no fact is an ego
A lie with some fact is an argument
A lie with all fact is a plagiarism
A fact with no lie is a truth
A fact with some lie is a gossip
A fact with all lie is a fiction
