After careful consideration and many sleepless nights, here’s what I’ve decided. There’s no such thing as a grown up. We move on, we move out, we move away from our families and form our own. But the basic insecurities, the basic fears and all those old wounds just grow up with us. …We get bigger, we get taller, we get older. But for the most part, we’re still a bunch of kids. Running around the playground trying desperately to fit in.
17 Seconds- In life we are taught that there are seven deadly sins. We all know the big ones... gluttony, pride, lust. But the thing you don't hear much about is anger. Maybe it's because we think anger is not that dangerous, that you can control it. My point is, maybe we don't give anger enough credit. Maybe it can be a lot more dangerous than we think. After all when it comes to destructive behavior, it did make the top seven. So what makes anger different from the six other deadly sins? It's pretty simple really, you give into a sin like envy or pride and you only hurt yourself. Try lust or coveting and you'll only hurt yourself and one or two others. But anger, anger is the worst... the mother of all sins... Not only can anger drive you over the edge, when it does you can take an awful lot of people with you.
There are times when even the best of us have trouble with commitment, and we may be surprised at the commitments we're willing to let slip out of our grasp. Commitments are complicated. We may surprise ourselves by the commitments we're willing to make, true commitment, takes effort, and sacrifice. Which is why sometimes, we have to learn the hard way, to choose our commitments very carefully
We are left with a choice. Either let the guilt throw you back into the behavior that got you into trouble in the first place, or learn from the guilt and do your best to move on
The fantasy is simple. Pleasure is good, and twice as much pleasure is better. That pain is bad, and no pain is better. But the reality is different. The reality is that pain is there to tell us something, and there's only so much pleasure we can take without getting a stomach ache. And maybe that's okay. Maybe some fantasies are only supposed to live in our dreams
The body is a slave to it's impulses. But the thing that makes us human is what we can control. After the storm, after the rush, after the heat of the moment has passed, we can cool off and clean up the messes we made. We can try to let go of what was. Then again..
I could promise to hold you, and to cherish you.
I can promise to be there in sickness and in health.
I could say, until death do us part.
But I won't.
Those vows are for optimistic couples.
The ones full of hope.
And I do not stand here, on my wedding day, optimistic or full of hope............
I am not optimistic.
I am not hopeful.
I am sure.
I am steady.
And I know that I'm a heart man.
I take it apart, I put them together, I hold them in my hands.
I am a heart man.
So this, I am sure: you are my partner, my lover, my very best friend.
My heart, my heart, beats for you. And on this day, the day of our wedding,
I promise you this: I promise you to lay my heart in the palm of your hands.
I promise you me.
How could you let somebody lay where I layed?
How could you give her everything that we made?
How could you call her all the names thaat u used to call me?
HOw could You How Could You just forget about me?
How Could You teach her all the things I taught You?
How Could You put her up to the Ghetto Karmasutra?
How Could You put me in the back and give her the front seat?
How Could You How Could You just forget about me?
