Devorando Como el Mar
Happiness: Something to love, Something to do, and Something to hope for...
Cheek to Cheek
Last night I dreampt of us
I whispered your name and felt your response
I endulged in your caress
closed my eyes and let my other senses take over
We were cheek to cheek
Hand in hand
and yet
I knew it could never be enough
From your tousseled hair
to your rapid heart beat
I tried to drink in all of you
In what would take a lifetime
I aimed to know you
For this night you and I are together
basking in eachother energy
together at once.
I closed my eyes for eternity
siltently protesting your departure
So I cling
I cling to the few moments we shared
I hold onto your touch
And I embrace the faith I have for the two of us
Not focusing on your immenent departure,
Rather envisioning our souls re-united
Whether it be ten days or ten years from now
I hold on to the stead fast truth
that we have been created for one another
our minds made to share with one another
our fears, hopes and dreams, confided in eachother.
Perhaps, one day,
with all of nature in balance
we will fall asleep
and wake up
still together
cheek to cheek
hand in hand.
and then...
sometimes I wish I had never met you.
then I could go to sleep at night
not knowing
there was someone like you out there.
New World Disorder
It's amazing the way policies in gov't impact global busines..."Ironically, the second President Bush put the final nail in the coffin of the new world order. Even before September 11, the administration was signaling that it had a very different vision of international engagement from its predecessor's, one based on security, not economic concerns. And security was now defined not just in the narrow Cold War terms of safety from attack from a hostile, though stable, superpower, but very broadly to include safety from terrorism and weapons of mass destruction, as well as vital economic inputs such as oil....The changing political climate is also overturning conventional marketing wisdom. For instance, many pundits argue that the current consumer backlash against U.S. products in the Middle East is here to stay and may spread to other countries. For instance, Coca-Cola--perhaps the most potent commercial symbol of America--has a new competitor in the Middle East. That competitor is Mecca-Cola, which is produced by a Tunisian-born French entrepreneur and is targeting Muslim consumers. Mecca-Cola's value proposition is to mimic Coca-Cola's branding (complete with the red and white label) but to promise 20% of its profits to Palestinian and Muslim charities. Mecca-Cola is rapidly establishing its brand as the anti-Coca-Cola through such publicity efforts as its sponsorship of an antiwar demonstration held in London last February. Currently, it claims to have received orders for 16 million bottles, including a million each in France and the United Kingdom."-Nicolas Checa author of The New World DisorderIf people need proof all they need to do is read...Irony is a serious thing....And isn't it interesting that no two countries with a McDonalds has ever gone to war. Now ask yourself where the power lies...
shouting from my heart
Its twenty past nine and i'm told to invoke the 48hr rule. Here's the problem: i envoked it 20 minutes ago... and now...I'm pissed. I'm pissed at everything that's been going on in my life right now.Hypocracy is a disease and it has spread across this campus and is attempting to destruct the unity and strength of my team.Brainwashing is rampid, and I am holding steadfast to my beliefs, clinging to the vision i have made for myself.I will NOT be kept silent!I will NOT turn the other cheek!I will NOT be convinced that whats been done is right!I am a business major, and therefore have had a massive amount of bullshit come before me and I am NOT BLIND. I know how to create bull shit, and spin it off as the truth, i mean my goodness i'm a marketing major, so gimme a break and just come clean.You can not count on me to be SILENT. I am standing before you stating my beliefs, fighting for what I believe in. And to my lovelies that hate "being in the middle", can't make up their mind, or stay silent. I feel sorry for you, and wish no ill on you for you are suffering, a slow death of the spirit.I too can play politics... and you'd be surprised at what i can do in the next 46hrs shouting from my heart
they call me wonderwoman
I am just trying to make sure I get the most out of my investment in my education. That's why I take 19 credits, trying to get through the 14 hour days. No one understands the reasoning behind what I do; put simply, i'm not satisfied.I'm still hungry, still starving for change and improvement. I have a family name to ressurect, a future family to think about, and a career to begin. How am I to understand the need for change if I don't get involved in what needs to be changed. While those don't see it, i'm fighting; working from the inside, getting my opinons through. Change comes from within, and its through these means that we have the peoples attention.For those that look at me and see nothing but a "goody two-shoes". I feel sorry for you. Sorry that you are too self absorbed to stop and take a closer look. Too blinded to see what it is that I really do. For I see how cold of a world it can be, and i'm aware of all the injustice and politics, but I can only hope that instead of talking about taking action, you do it.For i am not wonder woman. I'm just doing what I have to do, and maybe its time for you to catch up.punto.
