WUSAH....I have to do that from time to time, I don't know if it's just me but lately I have had trouble focusing. It's funny because when I was younger teachers used to send letters home saying I had trouble focusing. I used to think "no I don't your just boring the hell out of me"..lol See when your a kid in class you do lot of daydreaming, you think about the life you want for yourself. You have thoughts of what your going to do for a living, the perfect love, the most expensive car , the big house and the best thought of all how much MONEY your going to have!! You have no idea the twist and turns life has in store for you so your goal of complete happiness seems attainable. So what happens when you become an adult? I'll tell you you stop living in your fantasies and start dealing in reality. Then you end up just existing...quick question when was the last time you were at work,home,or school and felt completely happy in your situation?..I don't mean grateful, blessed, thankful,content, comfortable, or appreciative..I mean truly happy? Take a moment and give it some thought....I'll wait....you see that, if I were a teacher I would be giving you a letter to take home saying you lack focus ...lol It's true as a child you dream big and don't understand the challenges life has for you, But as an adult you are fully aware of the twist and turns,heartache and heartbreak that life has in store for you. So then people would have you believe that complete happiness is unattainable...WELL SCREW THAT!!! I am challenging any and everyone that read this to check back in with that kid for a minute. Run hand in hand thru the mental fields of your mind with that kid. Take a trip to fantasy island spend a day at the daydreaming spa, take a boat ride under the unfocused falls, and get some rest at the complete happiness hotel...then come back relaxed , refreshed and rejuvenated. Bottom line is this if you find yourself not focusing DON'T PANIC!! It's just that kid telling you are not where your supposed to be yet, whether it's your work or your living arrangements,your finances, or even your love life. WHATEVER it is now is the time to get FOCUSED as an adult you have the tools to get your goals accomplished...Start living and enjoying your damn life, BREATHE DEEPLY, THINK FREELY, SPEAK TRUTHFULLY, LOVE WISELY, SPEND TIME ACCORDINGLY, KISS PASSIONATELY,and MAKE LOVE UNCONTROLLABLY!! No more notes to yourself for not focusing let your imagination run free and don't try and chase it. It is OK as an adult to dream big that life you dreamed of is still attainable, you know what obstacles are out there meet them head on and get passed them. Remove that weight so you can run toward your goals faster, put your hater blockers on so you can avoid the hate( because once you start running they gonna try and stop you) place your trust and faith in your GOD and let him help carry you there and GO GO GO!! Let the child in you meet the adult in you, GET FOCUSED on what you truly want out of life and together y'all can find complete happiness....WUSAH...thanx for reading...Hazel Luciano!! |

I totally agree. As a child you map out the life that you want to live. You look to television, movies and magazines to create the "perfect" life. They all make it seem so easy!!! Then reality steps in a slaps you right in the face. Yes it is time to get focused and become the person our inner child wants us to be. Good job baby...keep up the good work.
WoW what can I say you have a calling from GOD as a writer.
what is interesting as i read it one things jumps out at me and that is how the world we come from (the hood) and the world our counterparts come from (the burbs) is so vastly different. the life we dream about is one that is foreign to us in that we don't know it, we dream it because we desire to have it. the life they dream about is an extention off the life they are already accustomed to. we dream about big big houses, fancy cars while they live it so the dream of having it one day themselves is not so far fetched because there is a blueprint infront of them. we have no blueprint for those dreams, our blueprints are of a life of public assistance, welfare generational poverty. we try to be architects our dreams but without a blueprint our road to realizing those dreams considerably longer. i too remember being that kid that kid that dreamt about the life i wanted... well i guess i never grew up because through all the troubles and struggles i am still dreaming about that life which i am determined to make a reality. so to all who read this, next time someone says keep dreaming you respond with i never stopped.
