Poem #2

Onto the sea
I sailed my boat
And prayed that it
Would stay afloat
From dawn til dusk
From dusk til dawn
In search of loveI drifted on
What happened then
I don't recallI think it was
A sudden squall
For when I awoke
I thought I died
At the sight of an angel
At my side
But lucky for me
That was not true
For I found love
And love was you.

Academic success

In the world we live in today, education is a vital part of succeeding, but is having an academically competitive atmosphere a help to us the student or will it hinder our studies? The reason one becomes a student and further ones education is to live a happy and successful life. But, does the key to academical success reside in a competitive atmosphere?

Being in a competitive atmosphere does not mean that a student will push his/ herself to their limits and try to surpass themselves or everyone else. A competitive atmosphere is a fuel of sorts to motivate the student and that’s about it, it does not help in anyway at all in most cases they can destroy a student. In order for us to succeed, we need to be in an environment that we are able to cope with. A competitive atmosphere will only lead us to think “In order to succeed I need to compete”. But that thought is totally inaccurate, do not forget that students are human beings and we have feelings and emotions just like everyone else, and a competitive atmosphere will only lead to stress and doubts in our mind, we will be more concern about competition between our peers rather than concentrating and doing our best in our studies and scholastic activities. Placing us in an environment suitable to our personality will lead to better results. School is just like the workplace, if an employee does not feel content with his work environment his work will be less effective than if he were in an environment suitable to him, in this case both the employee and the company loses, the employee loses since he is not happy, as for the company it loses its production because the employee is not working to his full potential. The academic environment is the exact same thing, if we the student are not happy with our surroundings we will not be able to work. Why not? Because once us, the student is not happy or cannot cope with our surroundings, we will go into a depression phase which will lead to rejection at everything we do and straight to failure and just like the company, our society and economy will not be able to flourish due to the failure of students. With the pressure that is being put on us nowadays: exams, social status, trying to fit in etc. Do you honestly think that having an academically competitive atmosphere will help us, the students? No, not at all it will only add insult to injury.

By definition, happiness is an emotional or affective state that is characterized by feelings of enjoyment and satisfaction. Thus, we the student cannot work to our full potential if we are not in the state of happiness or content with our surroundings (peers, environment etc.) even if we have an academically competitive atmosphere it will more likely hinder us than help us due to the lack of satisfaction to the student.

What is anger?

By definition anger is a strong emotion; a feeling that is oriented toward some real or supposed grievance, it’s a state: the state of being angry. But what does anger do to you? Not only anger blinds your, but also stops the way you think and you become another person. Just like the Hulk, when a human being gets angry he/she can destroy anything, not only material things but also the feelings of your love ones. We know different kinds of anger but it can be separated into two categories: short term anger and long term anger. The difference between the two of them is quite simple, short term anger lasts for a couple of minutes or hours, this is when someone says something negative about you or the ending to your favorite show got messed up. Now long term anger is much more complex we see this type of anger mostly when you lost someone or something in that genre it can last for months or even years.

But how can we take control of our anger? Anger can lead to many things, such as stress, doing something regretful etc… Anger is something hard to control. Why? Because remember anger is an emotion and emotions are close to impossible to control. So if we can’t control it, all we have to do is channel the energy from our anger to something positive, in other words use it as fuel for your motivation, whatever that motivation should be. For example, when you play sports for example let’s say basketball; if someone dunks in your face or keeps scoring on you, you will get tired of it and it will anger you forcing you to do better than that person, during that instant you get an adrenaline rush and you feel like you can do anything in the world. Well we can use this example in real life, using your anger to beat the obstacle creating that anger. So whenever you feel upset channel that energy to fuel your motivation and fight that anger.

Love Poem #1

Your lips, your eyes, your soul

Are like a work of art,
The most creative thing of all

Is your beautiful heart.
If you were a painting,
No colours could express
The beauty deep inside you,
A rainbow, nothing less.
If you were a sculpture.
The clay could hardly make
Your figure of an angel
Without one mistake.
If you were a euphony.
No choir could really sing
All the beautiful music
Your eyes could possibly bring.
So here I am, an artist,
With inspiration beyond belief
But to capture such rare beauty,
I'd have to be a thief.

People and music

What is your favorite kind of music? Ever sat down and asked yourself why is it my favorite kind of music?

My favorite kind of music is Hip Hop and RnB. Why? Well I listen to Hip Hop in a normal day or a stressful day because the beat just makes me want to dance and I smile when listening to it. Now as for RnB I listen to that to feel the love flowing through my veigns. But sometimes I ask myself do I love those kind of music because of that or is it because I want to follow the crowd?

Sometimes I listen to Rock then again I listen to Blues and there are times I even listen to Opera. And in all cases I like it and maybe even love it.

Now I think that music talks to your emotions and a

human person has so many emotions. And deep down we listen to all music and the reason we choose a favorite kind is probably to follow the crowd.

So what do you think does your favorite music express who you are, what you feel or does it express the group of people you follow? Leave a comment with your answers.

This is where I live. My island, my paradise, my home. The island is called St Martin, it’s a tropical island in the northeast Caribbean, approximately 240 km (150 miles) east of Puerto Rico. The 87 km² island is divided roughly in half between France and the Netherlands; it is the smallest inhabited sea island divided between two nations.

Without fear

Without fear, there would be a lot I could do. First of all I would chase my dreams, trust my gut, believe in myself and make decisions without looking back. But the thing I would mostly do is travel the world and see different places. I would offer a helping to everyone in need. Without fear, I would be there to care and support people with deadly diseases such as SARS, bird flu, AIDS or any fatal disease. Holding their hands, showing them love in their time of need. Society has put them aside and casted them away because of their illness.

I would fight to death to get enough funds to finance research and studies to cure these diseases. And I would let everyone pitch in to help; first of all by walking into the United Nations main office and let them see the truth. All the money that is being used to fund wars, and the lives lost in those wars for what reason?

To have more power or to be feared? Billions of dollars are being invested in machines of death (guns, planes, etc.). But the money that is invested is a waste, a waste of time and a waste of lives. For every weapon created, a person’s life could be saved. For thousands of innocent deaths in war, millions of sick people can be saved. So if fear never existed, I would sacrifice to show love to the sick and make this message known.

True and real love

Most people in the World don't think that real and true love exists, or most of the time they confuse lust with love. Lust ain't love, lust is the love of the flesh. Real and true love is when someone is there for you no matter what, that the person show's that he or she cares for you by doing the smallest things, love is when you feel like the world is going to end and that person is there to pick you up and whipe away any worries or fright. Love is knowing that person from inside-out and not only judging that person on what you see.

I been through alot but I'm not complaining, I know that it has made me stronger, wiser and smarter. I been praying for a sign or something, and then God answered my prayers by sending me one of his angels, the most beautiful girl my baby Kristen. In her I see everything inside and out, I love her to death ... She picks me up when I'm down, she treats me so good and makes me feel like the happiest man alive. To all you haterz and "mackos"... Love, like a river, will cut a new path whenever it meets an obstacle, in other words yall hate all you want we gonna just brush you off.

To my baby Kristen, I love you to death and I promise you never to let you down and always be there to love you. You mean everything to me ... There is only one happiness in life, to love and be loved and of course God, I thank him everyday for putting you in my life and I will forever cherish you baby I love you. I can finally say now that I've found REAL AND TRUE LOVE.

What's life??

Everyone asks themselves "What's life?" or "Why has life treated me this bad?" and sometimes people just cuss life out by saying things like "Life's a b****" or even "F*** life". In reality life is a mystery, but when it's all said and done everyone has a purpose in life.
No matter how old you may be, everyone's been through a period of rough times in their life, people go through different experiences more hurtfull than others but that shouldn't be a reason to hate life or be angry with it. Everyone has dreams and goals they would love to accomplish but if things go astray or don't go to way you want to don't lose it, God has a plan for us all.
Without love in your life one can't really be happy or get things done like it should be done. Like a maze life has so many unpredictable corners that cuts without any warning. I've been through diffenrent things in life, people done me bad, lied to me and even used me but all in all I've survived and became even stronger. I've been blessed with a gorgeous, angelic lady in my life: my baby Kristen. I love her to death there aren't enough words in this world to describe the love I have for her. She's my love and my everything. This "mystery" called life, well it's been solved by my baby. She brought me out this never-ending maze called life and guided me to a cloud covered with love. I thank God everyday for puting you in my life. Thank you God!
Baby to you, I wanna say that I love you and that I will forever cherish you. I've never seen myself laugh so much and be so happy. With you in my life I have no worries or fear but only joy. You love and care for me so much. I may not have all the answers in the world or know the future but I know that I will always cherish you and love you, comfort you and support you until the day I die and even after that I'll go to heaven and wait for you. My life has been changed for the better because of you baby, hold me under your wings forever.
Every time I look at youmy heart skips a beatmy heart is at your feetI leave it there for you To cherish and love it foreverBaby I love you!!
