Compromising


Who am I? Who are you?

Are you pretending, just like I am too?

Then there is a pair of us, don't tell!!!

Then they will know, then they will see...

Just like Adam saw Eve and they hid

because they saw that they were naked

and were ashamed.  
So why are we ashamed?

To be who we are? Why do we settle?

To please others at the compromise of ourselves.

Why, oh why, does this tale go this way?

Like Don Quijote, I've been searching for 

 adventures, but no worries hasn't taken me 700 

 pages to get to it. I am still walking through this 

 life and today I  made a choice: I will not 

 compromise, just like my roomate Faith would 

 say 'Never settle for less.' Because when you settle 

 oh boy, the good thing you were waiting for, now 

 you won't get it.  But when you refuse to settle 

 you are walking along this road and then one day 

 someone will join you and walk it with 

 you without you forcing them to, just because 

 they want to.  And you would have found what 

 the whole world's been looking for: love and 

 friendship together.  So no more compromising! 

 No more broken promises that leads to broken 

 tears of broken dreams.  Instead my days will be 

 filled with the joy of your kisses and your smile 

 along with the daily dose of your acceptance. And 

 that's the way love goes.

    I like it. It made me think about compromising with others about the truth.

    That's nice. It makes me think of my brother, you must be talking about him because you really like him.

Hooking Up

When I was in college, there was something called 'hooking up.'  I'm not sure if people still use the term now, but back then it was an inconspicuous term. It could mean anything. When you asked your roommate, 'so what happened between you and the guy last night?'  And she would reply 'We hooked up.' It could mean anything from first base all the way up to home run.  It could mean a kiss, it could mean that they did it raw. Who knows?  You would have to ask a series of  follow-up questions to get to the bottom of what happened. I find it interesting in today's day and age the way women and men treat each other. Seems like no one wants responsibility. Where are the good men that stay until the morning and call the next day?  Where are the good women that can cook and keep a house? Does anyone know what do to after the hook up? It seems to me like our culture and hip-hop songs glamorize the temporary pleasures of sex without mentioning anything about r
