Concise and very direct.
I think I know someone like this; I wonder the identity of your muse of this thought, you made me think really. :)

We are on the same page with this conviction Kabayan. In fact this one reminded me of my poem Stigma wherein I was trying to convey that beauty (not just the physical beauty but also of the skin deep ) depends on what the individual portrays and depending how one self declare.

I stand with you that one need not to pretend to impress nor even one need not to impress other just to be somebody. Just be with real self is more than enough to prove importance of existence. If one has the ability, the skill and most the conviction to stand for these, then that will speak for herself/himself and that definitely will let him/her stand out to inspire everybody.

i really don't want to exploit my muse in this write...lol.. but then again inspiration comes from everything you see around you and also yourself... anyways your very observant dear kabayan... and i always admire that in you... the words came-out out of the blue... after i watch my favorite tv show.. her character is blooming with rejections and optimism despite the long process of failure in her life... that really struck the cord of my wondering mind... its a US comedy tv show with a lot of heart in it and fun along too..
"the middle" ~ a great show now on its third season...

I agree, everywhere and every moment can be an inspiration; try even walking and you will never feel alone for inspiration can be within you, shrouded. My last two poems posted are both from within. Thank you BTW for the review. :)

I am not a fan of Tv series except for Criminal Minds but i'll do check on that 'The Middle"

[Belle]

I forgot to thank you for revealing your muse on this write, so I thank you. ;)

[Pax]

i like that show... but then i naging boring kasi yung second season... abandon ko na.. mas gusto ko yung Bones and Dexter...

[Pax]

salamat rin kabayan...

[Belle]

Bones and Dexter, obviously you are a TV buff. I am not, uh I do not have an idea of these two. I tell ye, I am only a fan of History Channel but I cannot even watch as much as I want because my kid rules with his NatGeo Wild. :)
On the other thought, Dexter sounds familiar, is it a kid show? Sounds like a kid show to me.

[Belle]

But do not be mistaken me as a boring lad, neither my son lol. We both love to watch movie instead because we can do it by schedule according to ours unlike TV series :)

[Pax]

hehe... your not... i love watching discovery and national geographic... though di naman cable yung tv namin noon so i stick to watching dvds of shows na tapos na... dexter is not your typical child show..sorry... kaparihas lang yan sa criminal minds the things is his the criminal killing criminals alike...

[Belle]

Nooo, Criminal Minds is not about killing criminals alike :P
The series is a team of profilers from the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit. Ah I love the complexity of the teams' work. I find it very perplexing and engaging how they analyze criminal minds/behavior in order for them to track down the culprit's next victim and avoid the crime from happening again. The series characters/team focus is on the criminal and not on the crime itself like of any other show ( CSI to mention). I love them especially Dr. Spencer reid :D :D

[Belle]

*next action I mean :D sorry for the mistake I get too excited again. Dr. Spencer Reid gives me silent scream always that I can't focus on what to say..
. LOL

[Pax]

i know... dexter is a blood splatter analysis working at the nbi with a psychopathic mind... he has his code which his adapted father taught him to channel his urges to kill to criminals only....i think the difference is that criminal minds analyze criminals with their mind... while dexter analyze criminals by his killer instinct and analytic pattern base on his own investigation...those criminals who got pass the laws he kills them... killer nga sya..

[Belle]

Hm interesting, its just that your Dexter kills so I am having a second thought of watching :) My team does not. They are genius and good and hardworking and wholesome and handsome(s) people. They work to catch the criminal and prevent crime from happening again. :D See, that is how good they are.

[Pax]

yup he kills... its just like watching the life of a killer... his facade that he wears everyday.. what's exciting now that his secret is getting on the edge by people around him discovering his ways of killings... and always my ways talaga na nakaka escape siya sa law... so i say intelligent rin siya like ..hehe.. criminal minds on the other hand are good guys who study criminals... which is also interesting because of their analytic skills on how a criminal mind works... diba... hehe..

[Belle]

Oh well, every action has consequences. I hope he will be caught sooner :P :) Sorry, Hudas must pay. :P. Your interest just reminded me of this series (book) from James Patterson : Alex Cross. I have read a lot from the series and I think you will like em too. :)

[Pax]

oh... i remember the movie very well... they have adapted it to a movie... haven't watch it yet.... yes every action has a consequences... law of karma i suppose or fate perhaps... i don't quite recommend it because its question morality and how some people really gets away with all their sins... but i would recommend Bones than csi...
i have been wanting to have an audio book of james patterson's novels... but i don't mind reading it as well... very expensive kasi yan dyan sa pinas...

[Belle]

ooops I need something to be done, don't go okay. I'll be back. The conversation is quite engaging , I'll be back, I promise...:)

[Pax]

hahaha... no problemo..

[Belle]

Aha, I am back. The momentum has flew away, I guess. :)

[Pax]

yeah indeed... and i fell asleep... just woke up and its dinner time already...lol

[That_Girl]

Always nice to come across a sweet little piece that makes you smile. Thanks, Pax. :)

[Corset]

This is true Pax, but I wonder how many people really know who they are, I think self is constantly forming :)

[TLK]

Self is constantly foaming,
beating against the shores of happenstance and
writhing itself into new seabound forms.

[Pax]

Dear friends,

Sometimes i look in the mirror and i see myself that i have change alot physically. But then when i look at the window of the eyes, i see everything that despite everything that has change I'm still the same inside. The very me that despite the changes and life experience everyday there will always be one thing or a piece of me on my soul the remains the same.

You both are amazing, I thank you for that. And blessed by your shining insights. Like i always said keep shining.

your friendly neighbor,
w.Pax :)

[Lonely Islander]

So true...such a simple fact people forget so easily...being somebody else, showing off, what's the use? And how long can u carry that that image? The truth has to come out somebody.
Great words my friend.

[Marie]

That's true. I'm really put off by people who try to impress me. Although I've been guilty of it myself.
