Hello, Hello... Bleeding Sadness
There are several stories that fueled the construction of "Hello, Hello". The first motivating spark was when I was compelled to write a poem in 2009 which I had titled "Hello Good Bye La La Land". It was inspired after spending several days with a friend of mine where through our encounters we had really bonded over sharing life stories connected with our passion for music. I would find my friend to be so interesting, wise and musically talented, yet so held back by internal torture which would make him lose all that wonderful wisdom. He would inspire and frustrate me at the same time by letting depressive reflective moments over take and supersede all the wonderful positive moments we had just shared.

Your physical body is fiction your real body is energy
“The physical body, which most of us have always assumed to be real, is actually fiction. And if only we could see that our physical body is an idea our mind is stubbornly holding on to, we would experience an enormous breakthrough.

The Onion Story
One day in the early 90's I was blessed to spend some time with the very special little girl in the picture above, her name is Red. As you can see she was a very pretty little girl and It was her birthday but she didn't seem to be very happy. So I asked her if she felt up to going to Burger King to get a little something to eat? With a very big smile she replied "Yes, Sir". So we headed to the nearest Burger King. When we got there she told me what she wanted and we got a seat. Even though she was eating she didn't seem to be very happy. Someone had said somethings to her that hurt her feelings. She shared a little of it with me as we sat and talk.

Coronavirus Diaries
Wednesday 11th March There's a lot of doubt around how "serious" Covid-19 is. Rumours about Italy and lockdown, the situation in China, death tolls and cases rising. The mistake is thinking the problem is on the other side of the world. I'm meant to be travelling to Paris for the weekend with family, we go ahead cautiously. "Stock up on hand gel!" Mum's orders. I go to Boots after work, there isn't any, hardly any toilet paper or pasta either. Then Tesco, none there too. I brush it off. "Do we need face masks?" my sister asks. Famous last words.

Love Being Different
Growing up I always felt I had to fit in, in order to be accepted, yet there was a part of me that I knew I was different and wanted different things in life, but always kept it hidden. For years I was living a double life, putting on a mask for school (since secondary school), for work, in relationships with others both personal and platonic, but this grew tiring.

You've Messed Up, again, and It's Okay.
You are here again. You thought you would never be. You were supposed to learn that lesson last week, last month, last year. A never ending cycle going around and around. You live in terror, just praying you don't fall for that same dirty trick again, hoping that for once you can see past the facade of false love, the sweet, but untrue idealization of two spirits uniting; Maybe, it is just the last sickening drink, the "final" job that you are trying to force yourself to fall in love with.

Perspective
Life is always what we make it and having our struggles and deciding how far and how much to endure is individual strength to believe it was worth it. I personally have had struggles 2 bad marriages and a child at 43 with a man still married to his ex. It is so humiliating not to mention to be dragged to his own daughters wedding that takes place at his ex wife house while she has no baby and engaged with a ring and commitment with a man who just loves her for her. I sat in shame while my child, my baby was included in pictures and was the outcast and told I was not family. I learned and grown beyond realizing there is a stepping stone and ladder that always is and never changes. When you can recognize who is your circle, who is your family, and who is your savior life will always turn out to your advantage. When your circle is positive and your family is mother ,father, and children and you live accordingly to doing the right things with the right intentions you can always move on from any mistakes. If your intentions were honest and true and just did not turn out as expected you just need to believe in the end it will come back and turn out as you wanted. Timing can be the unexpected and the heartbreak of all because as much as you want and try and believe if its not ready its not there. I have done so much research where I believe and do see that when you do have all the facts and truth you can truly write your own story and create your own ending but again it will depend on if there is another person in your story. Everything changes everyday and no one person is predictable or ever on same page when not together. All the belief and effort is wasted when there is one and not two trying. Life truly is what we make it and there is no big picture or small picture , there is no light or dark, and there is no miracle or disaster. We all have our own beliefs and own story and have our own spirit to what moves us inside. Where I made be inspired and have faith and believe in my own miracle another my see pity and despair and pathetic. Perspective is life and seeing the silver lining takes faith and wanting happy takes so much effort. Its true what they say if you wake up and say to yourself today will be a good day it will because the bad in it will be tolerated and dismissed but if you decide you want a bad day then the same exact day will be your worst. Our perspective in life and happiness and unhappiness is all in the head and mind to see a dead flower as new growth for next year or a dead flower for now. We have the power and determination always to change our destiny and live our life as we choose. We can either take it and smile or take it and cry but life does not change. We can wake up and believe we see signs and believe all is good or wake up blind and see nothing. I choose to see signs. I choose to connect dots. I choose in life its not coincidence but meant to be. Life is how we perceive it, we either can believe and be awake and have the power to think we made a difference and have purpose, or we can just put our head down and not matter in life and enjoy spurts of fun. I believe my life and trauma which did leave me homeless, jobless, and broke gave me a spiritual journey of wealth and purpose in myself. I feel connected to my higher being and blessed. I believe I had to breakdown to breakthrough but again its all in our own perspective. Life happens and is never fair and always ups and downs and work always to maintain balance. I do believe when you have nothing and lose you have nothing to lose but to believe and it is your strength and empowerment. Being on lockdown and during this pandemic we can either live in fear or see it as internal needed growth to take this break and work on ourselves and not worry of time because we had nothing but time on our hands. Perspective sit home and complain or sit home and enjoy, life has multiple choices and we can always change our destiny and journey. All need to inspire , grow, and change to become part of a world that always evolves. When trauma and loss come in your life you need to decide what is the lesson and change due to the trauma and deal adequately with the loss. When you believe and can confront it all you will see a light and believe in yourself and become new. Its just evolving with the everyday struggles of live. We all can decide in ourselves if we are victim or victory, we can decide if we are good or evil, happy or unhappy. When you do see picture of life you can determine if you see big or small, life or death, positive or negative. When you make the right choices you make the right path, and when your path is positive it evolves to what you dreamed of. Life is never changing and people need to change to move through it in a more enlightened and positive attitude. If we all believed we could believe and have power to change the world with good and positivity it just may become a better place for all. Pandemic has gave me the greatest life lessons and gave me time to understand emotional triggers and communication and understanding different opinions and acceptance and forgiveness. In life we can be who we want to be if we believe and we can have the power to change and save ourselves from anything with our own strength. I do believe this lockdown and pandemic was a stepping stone for all to realize who we are and who we can be. I do hope all took time to see inside themselves and fix what was broken and see what is needed and have a new perspective overall. As much as this pandemic had stopped my life and created havoc I found the blessing and enjoyed the days off , again its how you want to see it. So from now on find the silver lining always and smile because I live on cross street Bridge and Church if that is not a sign in itself I don't know what is but again it how I want to see it so I feel blessed.

Covid-19 Saved My Life
I love minimalism; and not just because I have OCD tendencies. I love walking into a room that is open, bright, clean, and with only a select few decorations. Clutter gives me anxiety and makes it hard for me to concentrate. However, my love for minimalism extends beyond the material. Over the years, even before I knew the term minimalism, I had been practicing it within all aspects of my life. Clearing my mind, body, and soul of either needless things, habits, and people is something that comes natural to me.

It's Okay to Sit This One Out
It’s hard to be so disconnected, but it’s worse to take the damage. Time and time again I find myself in this situation, debating with myself over whether I can absorb another black death on my timeline. But there is no debate this time. After two months in quarantine, I spend the end of every week sheltering, fortifying, and recovering just to borderline maintain my mental health, at constant war with my bipolar depression.
