Cleveland Family 25 Dec

I went up state northward to Cleveland for the Holidays. What and emotional time for me. I haven’t been around such family spirited events in a few years and just when my hope was wearing out and I was believing less in some important values that I was raise with like, ..uh …family values. My woman, Ntombi yegazi, Nkosikazi wami, came to my rescue just in time before I tossed them right out of my life. I think it was taking a toll on me each year past, that I was alone on the Holidays and all …..my friends been my only family around and even them had things to do on the holidays, understandably. I am not whining like a big baby but I cant help be share how moved I was this weekend past when her family embraced me like one of them.
***sidenote: I played it like in was going to propose to her …shoulda seen the fear in her face, the attempts to redirect me and give her my gift alone later in privacy or something. Coincidentally, her sister got engaged on the same day I was pranking , to my advantage. Made me believe this prank is meant to be for sure. With a lil space in the big box with her gift , I slipped in some candy that could be heard when the box was shaking all the time. Meanwhile I did everything oscar-style, to artfully insinuate a nervous guy abt to propose. Talk abt sweaty palms, slurred speech , disorientation and everything. It went down well all the way to the presentation. Well orchestrated*** (Friendly Hint : Ms sweet lady, when the time comes you will not know a thing , you will be very unsuspecting and no one knows the time nor the day. )

Baby, Thank you for all the Christmas memories, they are priceless and frankly I am speechless at the amount of generosity and affection you family displayed. I love the plates from your mama , I needed them and we know that, the gloves from grandma , the picture frames and the colognes from your sis and fiancé ….all priceless. The most special gift of all was displaying your commitment and submitting yourself to me in that 4paged letter, what more can top than. I told Santa I wanted you for Christmas and just when I was believing that there is no white bearded grand pa from the North pole it seem I got what I wanted. God is great!! He is my santa !!! I appreciate everything that you gave me with your heart and soul, neatly packed in the box with you heart wrapped by your soul and being. Sweetheart , I love you.

Missing you while you are at work…..Merry christmas, Happy Kwanzaa and Haanakah !!!

Forever yours

Pinnacle of Felicity

Pinnacle of Felicity

I can feel the clouds becoming dense
As I near the snow capped apex
My visibility is abating with each foot
Felicity belittles Kilimanjaro
To a Southern African anthill
The air is so thin like an abstract apparition
I am as high as Bob ever was
While competing with a 70s hippie
Jimmy per say
I hark au courant gliders whizzing past
I am so weary
So frail

She is right by my side
All the way from the foot of valley
The very troublesome valley
She has my hand in hers
And I have hers in mine
Our hearts are synching
Synching to one pulse
As we keep going higher and higher
To Jimmy Marley hippie land

We set our eyes on the crest
Our souls are craving that pure zenith
Rising beatitudes keep us going
As we look down to our lives in retrospect
We are a few steps away
Still hand in hand
From the Pinnacle of Felicity

Since then.....

Since recent time past, life has been on the north side. The general state of affairs has been bordering on either side of bliss. We have made significant progress in our relations and want to uphold that. It’s clearly nourishment to us in more ways than one. It’s been a steady rise on that rocky uphill which we seem to be handling better than we did at the foot of the valley. Just when we were in sight of the pinnacle of felicity, the X factor had to make one more entry. Needless to say the effect, direct and indirect, toppled the premature scaffolds in place by our own design and architecture and in a domino effect we hit the rock again, in a fashion reminiscent to the 2003 Blackout that was faulted by the old fashioned grid system.

I am on a mission to make this right and bring us back the peg we were at - come what may. This is what this is all about anyway, compromises. Speaking of compromises; I surprised even my self, to accept certain requests with no question. The sort of complimentary X factor on the other side is dearly missed and is clearly an important social element in the equation. The X' factor is not just a coefficient or constant k; it’s quite much a defining variable which can render the whole argument stale if absent. Isu sii 0! kumbe In(e). Yona manje with the compromise se sii 0!+ x or In(e) + x, which will never be absolute p, unless x is 0. Help me understand and do this mathematics Lord and accept the things that are not so inclined to my earthly discrete mathematical logic.

Because I love her so, impossible feats are nothing. Like the man behind me is always saying, "Impossible is nothing, impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they have been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact, its in fact an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration, it’s a dare. Impossible is potential, impossible is a temporary. Impossible is nothing " - maa. Impossible math is nothing.

PS By the way, the legislation of the Abstinence bill went through. The prime factor had a direct catalytic effect.
