Tomorrow.

The sun will rise, the birds will sing, the day will start anew.

The wheels will turn, the young will learn, what’s growing will have grew.

The lips will curve, the ears shall perk; the news will make its round.

The pain shall cease, or start again, what is winding will have wound.

Tomorrow, all these things. Tomorrow. 

Hope will live, dreams will drift and hover close to reach.

Life will start and end alike, and in between shall teach.

Plates will shift. Breezes blow. Hands will surely toil.

Sounds shall bounce around the earth, then fall upon the soil.

Tomorrow, all these things, tomorrow.

Lives will change, paths will cross, and chances will appear.

Peace will flirt and chaos tease, while time will disappear.

Some shall add, whilst some will take, while more shall neither do.

Few will reap what many sow, and visa-versa too.

Tomorrow, all these things tomorrow.

I’ll rise again, my soul will sing, prepared to meet the day.

My tides will turn, my youth return, with strength to make my way.

My lips shall smile, my ears alert to words that bring me life

My pain will leave, and leave again and take with it all strife.

Tomorrow, all these things tomorrow.

My hopes and dreams will not defer, but call to my command

The day will start and end alike, with freedom in my hands.

Thoughts will spark, ideas grow, my hands, they will create.

I’ll steak my place amongst the greats, and  not for once deflate.

Tomorrow, all these things, tomorrow.

I’ll change lives, and lead the path where dreams have gone before

Betroth with peace, whilst chaos leave, return to it no more.

To some I’ll give, with more I’ll share and humbly I’ll receive.

Expand my field, and gain great yield yet still for others leave.

Tomorrow, all these things, tomorrow.

Always a day away,       never a moment soon.

Presently on the way,     quietly keeping tune.

Daring us all to dream,    challenging us to try.

Whether todays requiem, or a landmark reaching triumph 

Let us value tomorrow, keep it close, again and again as we may,

For as long as we keep it entrenched in hope, let us try make tomorrow today.

Her-Ass-Meant-to-Holla-Back.

"What up ma'."    "looking good honey."

"God bless ya'."     "wanna talk to me?"

Yo' Head turner, lemme walk with you?

Are you deaf lady, can't you hear this wolf whistle?

It means my pure intentions begin with a willingness to conversate,

means you've met my lofty standards, means you should be feeling great.

means I've paid you attention now kindly pay it back.

cos no return on this investment really would be wack.

I mean,

You should see all of the women I let by!

display your Joy of being chosen by way of reply.

Do you not see this chance that i've just given you?

....saving you from loneliness and ridicule.

huh?

You could be above, besides, perhaps below me.
You could be my love, my wife, just get to know me.
You should be aware, my intentions are sincere
you should stop and give me your time. nothings to fear.

Cancel your plans, meet my unselfish demands.
If you have a man, I guess that I understand.
but even in this case, unless your headed to his place
Listen to this pitch I make, to try to take his place.

Don't be offended, afraid, apprehended, harassed.
feel befriended, coveted and complemented, K lass?
This cat call is displaying how emphatic your attraction is
so please don't get all panicked and dramatically feminist.

Just Give me your number you rude, up your self Fitch,
You're not even that pretty, and your attitude stinks.
I bet you'll end up desperate, middle aged and on your own.
As if, id even call you, i'd delete you from my phone.

so run along, with your attention seeking attire.
Why dress up nice, if you don't want me to admire?
using me to boost the self esteem you clearly lack
And if it's so offensive why not cat call back?

Holler Back?!?

Pretty Girls Dump.

Pretty girls take dumps too. 
That's worth thinking about for when she dumps you,
Rejects, disrespects or straight thumps you,
With that dismissive attitude that affronts you. 

They don't exist to get run through,
Matter fact, understand they get runs too,
Real runs, real bad, well they must do
Cos as far as I'm aware they've got guts too!

Ask one. If you got the guts to.

And cute girls fart.
smells like the beans too good for their heart,
Sell you a dream like the song from the charts.
Caroline... roses....  by Outkasts.
see the stink make you think, reevaluate the beauty.,
Think a different thing when considering the booty...
could you believe, its sole purpose ain't to twerk, 'put in work' no its got a different duty.

And pretty girls think too
Got goals, thoughts, fears and a chink too,
Got aims, hopes, joys and ambition,
Perhaps, pains, woes, ploys and affliction. 
They got the right to have none of the above.
the right to fall out. The right to fall in love. 
The might to carry on, but then they might not
Either way they're taking dumps. Regardless if they're hot.

So,

Shout out to the pretty girls,
Who had the wool pulled over all across the world. 
In every town, in every village, every city
All believing that you all were just pretty.
if I can get the truth out though its obscene,
You take dumps making you another human being,
And to give this a twist unexpected
Prettiness is thing that's projected,
So If you think its all fresh with the 'unpretty'
Like this poem I guess you are ummm, Silly. 
Beauty lives in the eye of the beholder. 
So she too uses the loo roll holder.

she takes dumps too.

Bows and Arrows

               Blunt Arrows, Blurred Targets and Bent Bows.

Where Leadership has Failed Young People

There are numerous factors that are affecting the prominence of leadership amongst young people and some that are difficult to readjust. However developing skills, creating targets and coordinating networks are areas that can and should be used to boost the relevance and visibility of leadership amongst young people. If we can sharpen their arrows, set clear targets and provide a strong bow that can propel them, there are no limits to where our young people can go.


When I wrote my application for the 2011  ‘Uprising’ programme (a programme that develops leaders in London aged 19-25), I cited that the issue I believed to be most pressing about the state of the local community was the degree of apathy amongst its people. There is a great deal of disaffection within communities that is caused in part, by a feeling of lack of belonging and an extreme lack of self-value.

I wrote that growing up in London, a built up city with it’s own life and relentless pace could be intimidating for an individual. Standing in the face of it and bowing to the feeling that it can and would go on without him or her was belittling. The perception that he or she can be easily replaced, dismissed or forgotten; a disposable piece on a ruthless conveyor belt would cause a damaging perception of self-value and self-worth.

            A self-worth that is crucial to the productivity of the current generation. A person with out self-respect quickly loses respect for others. People who have little empathy for themselves will similarly have little empathy for anyone else. The ill manner in which they treat others and their environment is often just a projection of their own self-worth. The cost of which was demonstrated so aptly during the summer riots of 2011.

            There is a higher price also. The sub plot to every scene of dysfunction and destructive pattern of behaviour is the lost opportunity of fulfilled potential. Between the lines of every negative article or sentence spoken about youth unemployment, crime and delinquency is a tale of starved talent- a misused, misrepresented and blunted ability drifting in obscurity.

            When talents are made to lie dormant they are invariably diminished like a blunt arrow slowly losing its effectiveness. There are a generation of young people so demotivated that they are neither honing nor utilising their skills. This definition crosses boundaries of race, gender and class. It is a generational problem that faces a downward spiral. The more people who lay their talents to waste the less examples there are of the skills being operated at the highest level and the level required to be at the top of the pile is reduced. Since iron sharpens iron the lack of competition only deepens the issue.

When one has an arrow, what would naturally follow is the expectancy to have targets. However many in this current generation have so far detached their abilities from what they feel is required to ‘get into work,’ that it is often the case that they do not set any. Even when one is aware of their own potential it might still be a challenge to identify where that potential could take them. The lack of good targets can lead to a demotivated aimlessness. Careers then lack cohesion and are often inconsistently and haphazardly approached.

Furthermore when one is aware of their strengths and is able to identify clear aims and objectives, there can still be many barriers on the way to being a successful leader. Although its true that one can get far on individual skill and hard work, it is also clear that having the right people around or assisting you is paramount to any true success. A lack of role models, mentors and facilitators is damaging to the current community and leaves many a young persons potential unfulfilled. What young people need is the environment to develop their skills, create clear passages to their goals and have in place key facilitators to help set them on their way.

Many young people are unsure on how far there skill set can get them. Some settle for constantly sharpening their arrows (through excessive studies and qualifications) but have no plan of passage to follow. Having access to relevant knowledge and a network, which can provide it, is often what can propel a person from one stage of their career to another; like a bow in the hands of a skilled archer that is used to make use of the sharp arrow and hit the target whatever it may be. All arrows should point towards opportunities that are derived specifically from the individual’s skill set. The clear targets mean that all efforts are harmonious and working towards a common goal, strengthening the chances of success.

              What we need is a robust and dynamic strategy that involves quickly identifying skills in young people, bringing them to the fore and encouraging their development. We need to help them create clear targets and identify multiple avenues of success that make use of their sharpened skills. We need for these targets to be accessible and for there to be considerable guidance on the way to reaching these goals. Whether the support comes from teachers, coaches or mentors our young people are dependent on sufficient provision of knowledge, insight and access. If they are to see further it will be for standing on the shoulders of giants.

It is one thing to have the skills, another to know where you want them to take you, and yet another thing to be able to navigate the journey to get there. There is a need for a new generation of young leaders to spring forth, there is a call to leadership in all aspects  of business and social enterprise, there is a pool of talent ready to answer the call, and it is only a bow and an arrow away.

             


 

Check Check One Two. (approaching a woman)

Testing... Testing.... is this thing on?

Now I ain't some sort of expert, but what I do know is how not to approach a woman.
FIrst off I wanna make this clear, most of the guys who would actually like to improve how they approach a woman are not jerks, they aint creeps just trying to get inside a womans pants.

Those guys are not really interested in improving what they do, they work on numbers. The more women they approach, the more likely they'll get a return. The percentage game, banking on the knowledge that eventually they'll find a girl who is; having self-esteem issues, straight up easy, fresh up on the rebound or just hasnt had their inbetween-relationship-dose of wasteman badboy.

They play the percentages and do their thing. good luck to them.

Seeing as that type of brother doesn't actually partake in menial tasks like 'reading' this is not for them.

This is for the guy who occasionally see's a girl he likes, would genuinely like to get to know her better and finally have a positive response to this rhetoric.
'yeah your doing well career wise, you got your head on your shoulders your a good guy... where's the lady in your life?'

A response other than a blank face, or some lame pacifier that attempts to mask internal frustration and self-pity.

See the thing about our waste counter parts, is that it's well known that they wreck the game for everybody. When a good looking, 'wifey/ wife' material girl has already had 27 over-confident guys trying it on -with their well practised, daily honed material- on the way to the bus stop before work. what chance does the good guy with his.... 'Hi I just wanted to...' feeble attempts to display genuinity have at holding her attention beyond a kiss of the teeth, a polite lie (I don't talk to guys, sorry') or just outright rude dismissal.

No chance... No chance at all.

The wastemen have killed it for everybody.

I know what your thinking if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. Play the numbers game, roughen your edges up and stop being so passive. After all, everyone knows, the nice guy finishes last... and doesn't get the girl.
Well I got news for you, just before you lower your trousers, develop a 'bop' and start using the introductory term of 'Yo, my size!'

The nice guys don't finish last. Losers do.

There's probably a few blogs in that subject in itself discussing the loser like mentalities which are so generally misappropriated as being 'nice', but that's for another blog. what I will say for now is its perfectly achieveable to be a good guy, and incorporate the qualities, yes! qualities, that our waste counter parts so naturally use.

Disclaimer: I wouldn't want to claim to be the guy who can teach a guy how to 'run game'. There are countless books, journals and groups for that. I kind of think that when it gets to the point that you are intensely trying to figure out how to run game on girls you've got it all backwards anyway. These are just my thoughts on the matter, my ten pence. And sharing knowledge amongst the Mandem aiming towards general self- improvement in all areas is by all accounts healthy.

All I wanna do for now is help you out with how you approach a woman. Normal.

It's something I came up with a few years back and while it might not shake the world up. I thought back on it recently and agreed with myself that it made sense. I call it, the check check one two.

For anyone familiar with using microphones you'l know that getting the levels right is vital before proceeding, you'l also know that if you want to see if it's working, you don't just 'tap' a mike. (take from that what you will...) Nope, theres an arbitrary command that is used accross the land. 'Check, check 1, 2. testing...'

Here are the stages of how it works, note: it's all about creating comfort.

1. (first check) Right off, you need to have your radar working. I know that no-one wants to be the bait guy whose eyes... and head follow every attractive girl that walks by, but you at least gotta notice when it happens! The waste man's check is simple. 'does it have a bum? does it have breast? is it a woman?...Proceed!!!'
Well, if you're a serious guy your rules of attraction might go a little beyond that. Obviously though, your not going to see a woman's character or personality at a glance. The whole point of your approach is supposedly to create the opportunity for those to be shown in future. It may be that the situation allows for you to keep this check going for a sustained period of time so that you can see a little more of that in advance. That said, know what you're looking for, what you like and when you see her, proceed to the next check.

2. (second check) Assuming you've seen what you like and you're ready to make an approach, the next thing you've got to be aware of is where you are. Where she's is, why she's there and who and what is around her. Again, to the waste man this is not really that important. Whether she's running for a bus, dining with her mum, or front row in church really doesnt change the obviously nessessary call of 'Yo, My size!'.
You however are gonna come a little more correct than that, adapt to your environment. Acknowledge if she's in a conversation, actively engaged in an activity, or just looking pissed off. Sometimes, you'l see that now really isn't the time to proceed with any sort of introduction. Walking past the girl of your dreams on some dark isolated backstreets, might be one of those times. But, if you can take everything into account, and confidently spot the green light to go ahead. i.e That isn't her boyfriend standing two feet away... proceed to the next step.

3. one (from the one- two)

This is probably the most crucial step. This is the big set up, the sink or swim. Any boxers out there will know that a one- two is a bread and butter punch combination in the sport. The '1' is the jab that sets up the money '2' shot. The same applies here, this stage creates your opening. See the thing is, due to the consistent influx of watse material which is displayed to women, they are set up to not want to be approached. perfectly friendly and sociable women become Gaddafi's Amazonian guard to protect their right to not have to entertain nonsense chat up.

Therefore, to break that guard you have to not be considered a threat, one way to do this is to become overtly gay, another way is to have third party validation. Failing that, you hit 'em with the one- two.

All your going to do, is make a move to have the shortest possible interaction which makes NO suggestion to ANY form of interest. You are NOT going to flirt, compliment or converse. you are simply going to use the checks that you have done prior to form a short interaction. You are going to boldly affirm or suggest something and then walk away, or at least clearly be prepared to.

In short, you are introducing your face to her world, allowing it to register as none threatning and therefore enabling her to be herself and not shut you down. simple.

be interesting without appearing interested.

4. 'two'

This should be the part where you're 'in' and can relax and actually be yourself without fear of being shut down before you get the chance. This is WHY you approached her, or would have wanted to in the first place... at this point you've been brought to the water. Drink.

See, if you've played 'one' right then the next time you see, or are seen by this girl you are suddenly a familiar, none- threatening face. She may not even know why she knows you, but so long as your interaction was enough to make you memorable you should at least now sub-consciously be validated in her mind as not being a menace. And given the female psyche, with the fact that she now has some plausible deniability, she may even now be comfortable enough to approach you. (you know, being polite and all)

*For those that dont understand plausible deniability... basically, you've given her the mental comfort to allow herself to speak to you with her guard down without feeling 'easy'. After all, you're not chirpsing her are you, it's surprising how much people (guys and girls both) will change when they think there actions wont come back to hurt/ embarrass them.... Girls are ALL about the deniability.

Bear/ bare/ beer?!? in mind, depending on what you have gathered from step two, you will be able to decide how far after step 3 to play step 4. It could be for a completely different day if you discover you work or study close by. If you had spotted her at a place you will both likely be for a number of hours, it might just be that step 4 occurs later on in that same time period. If there is an obvious time- constraint, you'l have to use your judgement to leave enough of a gap to re-assert your self, but not so much that you appear intimidated. Or even roll it all into one... it's very possible.



Depending on who you are and where you are in your life, you might just nod in agreement. You might feel like you've learned something you wanted to hear for years or you might just think i've spelt out the blindingly obvious or something inherently flawed. You might see traces of this in your current game or how its a drawn out version of what you do, or think people should do in such situations. No biggie.

Just remember to up your game. It's getting tough for the real men and women to stand up and be counted. It'l only get worse when we don't know how to approach each other and, in essence, wind up being drawn too and partnered with the less serious but more forward men and women. Producing a generation of half-serious to un-serious kids. (bbm Can't watch face)

So what ever it is you do get your game tight. quit whining about how tough it is to meet someone and go out and do it. it's being done.


and remember, at each step she's .... 'testing... testing.'
(or at least she should be)
Don't fail the test.

(I'll Write a blog on how girls should 'TEST' the guy that's approaching her in the near future...)



It's been a long one... but here's my customary corresponding poem.


This ain't about a mike, or nothing of the like
this bout how you sensibly approach that girl you like
this bout how you delicately differ from the norm
let other brothers act, you perform
And form,
A different sort of connect.
cos some abort the respect
and others just neglect what is morally correct.
And leave the 'nice' guys to take the hits and hit the deck
turned down, by the girl who turned your head. in a sec.
but they say, where theres a will theres a way,
no need to be a jerk, nope no matter what they say
neither should you be hurt, if the girl should walk away
everybody on this earth has a right to choose the places where they pay
their attention.
so while I mention.
what you should do.
when you see the kinda lady that you might like to pursue
you haven't got a chance if you havent got a clue
so next time you see her coming, buss a CHECK' ONE TWO.





Check one-two, who got more style then son do?

Check one- two!

Love Me For My Money.

Honey,

You may as well love me for my money.

It's something I can grasp that is tangible and at least I'l always know how much you love me.

That's if you'll love me for my money.

Everybody loves someone for something right, no one loves someone 'just because.'

So love me for who I am, money being a big part of that. Its something I spend a significant amount of time chasing, amassing and accumulating, you may as well love me for it.

It's not that I don't want you to love me for my looks, handsome as I am, but these will fade. Try as I might to stay in shape and wrinkle free; what if your perception of beauty changes? what do I do then? When fats the new skinny, short is the new tall, and pretty is the new handsome.

What about when the dark skinned brother is out and an athletic physique is for losers?

What then?

I need more assurance than that.

It's not that I don't want you to love me for my personality either. After all, loving my strange, borderline schizophrenic characteristics shows the full limits of your love.
That you bundle my manly ambition with my childish foresight, my strong will with my weak scruples, my fascinating future with my shameful past; and still love me is a credit to you. You and your capacity to love me wholly, fully.

Yet I prefer that you love me for my money, its just so much simpler that way.

As my desires change and my qualities take on new shapes and identities.

As our relationship evolves and the years take their toll on our union,

When you forget what caused the initial spark between us long after it disappears, just take a look at our bank balance and remember you're in love.

I do, however, still want you to love me for all these perishable things. For all the different lights in which you see me. For my swagger, my kindness, my family, my friends.

It would be nice also if you see me in my element and feel your heart strings tug gently in response to how effortlessly I pulled it off (the event I'm in my element in), how natural it seemed. I'm kind of hoping that you'l notice this latest endeavour I have been successful in. How my clothes co-ordinate.

It would make it more worthwhile if you noticed. Noticed how kind I am to others when you are around, how good I am with children under your gaze. I'd prefer you didn't notice that I save the meals I cook best for when your present. I'd prefer that you just thought my cooking was consistently great.

It's frustrating that my funniest jokes come off awkward when your near me, so you probably shouldn't love me for that, you probably should not remember those jokes at all, just remember how good I am with the children...

It's tiring being me, the version of me that you'l love anyway. I'm not sure I want to be with someone who will love me without all the extra effort I make to dress it up. To quote Groucho Marx 'I just don't want to belong to any club that accepts me a member.'
I'm tired of giving you all the reasons in the world to love me, I'm fed up of putting my best foot forward and attempting to play to my strengths. That's all long.

It's much easier when I know exactly why you love me and what I have to do to keep your love, To not have to scan myself for what may cause you to fall out of love.

Long.

Who I am changes when I'm around you, one day you'l figure that out. So I want you to love me for my money, for me, in terms of my net worth. There's no better reason to love me, not really.
It's simple straight forward and will save us a lot of time, posturing and backtracking.

Just love me for my money honey.

Truly then, I will work for love.



Poem.

Love Me For My Money.

There's a lot of different reasons to love, or be loved,
reasons which, a lot of grieving goes in to find out.
Some things are bait, some things are vague
there's some things that some cannot wait to say...
'I love her for her smile', 'him for his ambition'
'love him for his style', she's a woman of vision'
some think they love off of some inner-intuition
soul-mate type love like spiritual collision

but the shallow and the honest are the same.
they love the good looks, the money and the fame
they love for something they can get from and can gain
an give back as much as they can offer, to make it a fair exchange
so don't love me for perishable qualities and things that change
love me for my net income, salary and my change.
And I mean REAL love, In-Love type love which they claim
is deeper than material things but what the hey...
God forbid i'm ever broke our love can still crack-on
Cos we'll have all that other stuff for us to fall back on.

:)

Love you too Beu.

HEAVEN SCENT

Something smells good.

Real good.

i'm moving to it.

I’m a daydreamer by nature, its a big part of what makes me, me. I did stopped daydreaming for a minute, but I've started again, but with the bonus of actually taking the steps of jumping into it to make it real. I took the time that I used to spend so much of in my head and started using it to do what was in my head. Sometimes I get to the lil’ thinking bit before I sleep and I aint quite sure what bits what between my dreams and reality.

I’m a bit crazy that’s a given, but I genuinely feel the only difference between the two things is just what I have done and what I haven’t done … yet. To some that’s a huge difference, but to me it’s just a case of planning and time. Things can happen so fast that to me, God willing I maintain my health this year, I’m going to walk through my dreams like I’m playing an RPG with a guidebook.


Anyways, what I’m saying is I don’t know whether you should take me literally or figuratively, but I mean what I say, and I say what I mean; for the most part.

Well, getting to it...



I know you may have already begun to think, ‘you talk to much, know your role and shut your mouth!’ Well, to that I say, ‘IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT YOU’RE THINKING JABRONI…’ Sorry, but I mean it. Recently I’ve been thinking of the millions… and MILLIONS of the rocks cash and realised that he didn’t just get where he was out the blue. I don’t know if he- or others like him- ever expected the worldwide acclaim they enjoy but they sure as anything acted as though they believed it. Remember, there’s going to be people who have something to say about anything you do as long as you’re not doing nothing.

I’m a wordsmith, so I have like a million motto’s a recent one being, ‘be humble enough to accept help from anyone, but proud enough to expect it from no one.’ At the moment, I’m tryna help myself, I’m going to accept that help, no matter what I or anyone else can say about me… that’s humility… right? So if you don’t like it, I respect your opinion, but you can take that opinion, turn it sideways…shine it up real nice… ... you know the rest.

It takes a level of undisputed arrogance to seriously consider yourself for anything BIG. You might not consciously go through the thought process, which enables me to describe it like that, but essentially, you are saying; of all the millions of people in the world, many of which also have similar talent or abilities, I think that this ‘role’ should be taken by me. I have something to bring to this situation that no one else could and believe with out a shadow of a doubt, -not knowing even a small percentage of these millions of other people- that the best person for it is myself. That’s some special doses self-assuredness/ confidence in the least. It's necessary though because quite frankly, if you can't get a picture of succeeding in what it is your jumping into before you jump into it… there is not much point jumping!

The rock never actually told us what he was cooking, but 15 years, several movies and world tours later, it’s pretty sure he was cooking something. What’s more, before anyone else did, he must have smelt it. How could he have asked if people could smell it if he hadn't smelt it himself? Matter fact, asking anyone to believe in you or what you’re doing before YOU believe in it is semi-retarded. (I don’t know if I’m supposed to use that word, or if it’s still used. If it bothers you replace with something else, if it offends you, it’s meant to, it’s that simple.)
Do you see what the ‘VoicEofReasoN’ is doing?

Forgive the obvious Dwayne Johnson references, but don’t forget them, I wrote them for a reason after all…

Let me take you to the kitchen, as far as I know we have 5 senses, the main purpose of these senses is to help us navigate and improve the quality of our subsistence or survival, some of us don't use them effectively. Bear with me through the analogy.

We need food to survive, anything that lives, that doesn't get food, dies. I say if you ain’t living your dying. Living (a full and purposeful life) is the win… eating is the win. Let’s equate eating to winning.
You don't eat just once and win the game, no; you have to keep winning, continuously. You don't keep winning just one thing either, that is not a balanced win. Several things go in to the win, sourcing, preparing, and consuming being three.

Not only do we want to win though, we want to enjoy a win. One of the things that give you an indication you are going to enjoy what you eat is your nose.
When you are hungry and you've headed towards your kitchen, the smell of freshly prepared food is enough to whet your appetite, to make you walk towards your win with confidence that something is yours for the taking. Obviously there is the chance that what's being cooked is not for you, in which case that smell is a deceptive, teasing irritant only serving to stir up your hunger even more.

Growing up in my house you had to stake claim to your food to fend of competing 'winners' senses, because if you are not careful, someone WILL eat what you have cooked!

I don't know if I want to decipher all that, but it's in there if you look for it.

Equally, we can use our nose to guide us through certain situations. When we stop using one of our 5 senses for a time, it heightens the others. If we take our time and pay attention to our senses we can actually get a much clearer picture with which to make our decisions, trust your senses. Why do you think we have phrases like, 'something’s fishy'? Well basically, if something smells bad its normally an indicator that something is bad, when food goes of its smells bad, when things die they smell bad, throw up and faeces smell bad. Your unwashed armpit stinks. Ironically fish is good for you, WHEN it is prepared and cooked, smelly raw fish can do you some serious illness so once again... trust your senses.

Not everything that smells good is good, just like not everything that glitters is gold, you do have to be Sensible with it. Generally though your senses do serve as a good barometer to what is going to be good for us. For instance, how many people sit and deliberate when there sense tell them that they need to go to the toilet, or the water coming out of the shower is too hot and you might wanna jump back... NOW! Nope, certain times we tend to listen to our senses other times, we totally ignore it. Saying stupid stuff like, the signs were there... I should have seen it coming!

Well, me, I'm liking what my senses are telling me at the moment, I’m liking what's in the air and I’m reaching for it. You should have gathered by now that I've used the smelling sense as an umbrella for all of the 5 senses. What I have not been speaking about are emotions, emotions can sweep you, or knock you off your feet to the point that you ignore you're senses. Knowing what's good or bad for you and letting a feeling over-ride what you know is the sensible response to it isn't the money! Yes emotions most definitely have there place, but that's a different blog, a different day, I have already amassed enough words in this one.

If you understand what I have written you will understand this simple formula. Pray it, plan it, and then follow your senses. It's a win. That's why I'm a winner.

But concluding all of this jargon?... wisdom?... stuff?!? Just remember emotions are great and have their own amazing little purpose that isn’t to be ignored. That’s why I mess’ with emotions, sometimes. But more time, most of the time, when something happens or doesn’t you can ‘smell it coming before hand. You wont always get it right but you can learn that. For me, am smelling days of heaven on earth so I’m boldly walking towards it, I’m claiming it loudly too so every time I get there cant nobody tell me it aint for me neither.

I don’t know what’s ahead of you, and I aint normally gonna have my nose in your kitchen, but seeing as you got your own. Close your eyes for minute make the senses extra strong.

Can you smell it?

Can you smell it?

Can you SMMEEEEELLLLLLL, what it is that you’re cooking?

TO GIVE ME a reason to proof read i will now normally read my writing and give myself 5minutes to write a poem which summarises what i understand from it... Here's it...

Heaven scent... The poem

Breathe Deep before you ‘go in’,
Sumfin smells good.
Exhale just as you zone in.
Sumfin smells good.
Delight in life, in living. Revisit your favourite vision
Then plan ahead stop missing what could be ur new beginning

When sumfin smells fishy, take ur steps with caution
Cos only fools and horses, find a fortune in the auction.
Live a little love a lot. Look up, look to look hot.
Look for your favourite spot. Find it, keep it, get it got.

When following senses. Do not leave urself defenceless
Cos feelings are pretentious , leaving u falling of fences
With indecisive and imprecise, crisis enlightment.
Define it like a psychic whose story telling is cyclic.
So round in circles you go, following scents in ur nose.
Been walking columns and rows.
Misunderstanding my prose.
just cos it smells pretty doesn’t mean it taste nice.
The Bolognese was gritty but the cook just added spice
Your stories always being written, you choose how you tell it.
Sumfins, surely bout to happen for ya, can you smell it?
