Living Mother, Living Life

Tuesday, March 20th, 2007

There’re so many bridges in this world.
So many reasons to take that fall.

But, there is Roy.
Lying in a hospital on a bed.
A life confused and unsatisfied.
Does he find peace in his life?
Or does he find it more on his death?

There’re so many bridges in this world.
So many reasons to take that fall.

But, before I jump.
I think of Roy.
More like his mother’s eyes, crying.
She lives, is confused and unsatisfied.
She watched her son die in pain and agony.

There’re so many bridges in this world.
So many reasons to take that fall.

But, I think of mom.
And her mother.
She prayed to die before her children.
She never saw her children’s dying eyes.
She didn’t and died with beautiful contempt.

There’re so many bridges in this world.
So many reasons to take that fall.

And there is me.
Living in a pursuit of life.
A life unsure and unmodified.
Do I find peace from my own life?
Or do I search for it in my death?

There’re so many bridges in this world.
So many reasons to take that fall.

But, before I decide to jump.
I think of Mom.
I want to die contempt and satisfied in life.
I want to find peace in my life.
I want to live life by living.

There’re so many bridges in this world.
So many reasons to cross them alive.

A New New

Friday, March 9th, 2007

So here I am, almost a year since I moved to New York City. I walk down the street toward my local subway station passing the Multilanguage store signs. Being the pluralist, the diversity is awesome. I’m a hometown country boy in love with the big city. This is my new home. Even though my old home has a place in my heart.

I still can’t believe after a year and a haft, I feel teary eyed when I think of New Orleans. Luckily it’s only a feeling and not a flood. That said; I must focus on the balance between the past, present and future. So, much has happen since my last blog entry. My view has changed from destruction to a view of Lady Liberty and the skyline of the Big Apple.

Since I was a child, I always wanted to live in New York City.
