(Oh'..) Lord of the Flies

He must have been on a stake out for the past few days, observing it's enemy (namely me) and the habits with which to use upon my destruction.

I could ignore him for the sake of an un-interrupted episode of 'desperate housewives' which only led to irritate him even more so.

teasing me he would linger around my head, screaming in my ear.

ENOUGH was ENOUGH!

I flicked the switch to stun the sod HA HA

it faked an injury only to screw with my mind when it flipped out and starting darting around the room

I grabbed the deodorant and fired it in short blasts......

no joy!
I just couldn't get it within my line of fire.

twisting and turning around the room i emptied my ammo on everything but the blasted FLY!!

until i collapsed back on to my bed defeated.......

choking.....

itching.....

gassed.....

and off it flew nonchalantly out the door!

Maslow's concept 1943



I am not a stranger to the mantra of the mid 90's that is; 'Self Actualisation', an after thought of the escapist attitudes left over from the aftermath of the 70's and 80's Ecstasy and cocaine generation, leading to unmotivated family dynamics or so 'they said' amongst us, the working class the once thought of 'backbone of Britain'.


My strongest recollection of education is remembered not from school but in a mis-shapen youth club where our lessons of respect acceptance and personal strength were at an abundance.
And sometimes by doing so this seemed to have had a devastating effect of reverse-psychological self fulfilling prophecy's where the rich stayed rich and the poor stayed oblivious, but then again there's just no helping some people lol.
Although, the encouragement from my council appropriated mentors didn't always fall on deaf ears. But, I guess the belief that someones environment and social conditions play a fundamental role in motivating an individual towards self growth isn't too far from the truth.

However,

Islam seemed to be the one 'theory' that didn't need a pie chart graph or diagram to understand and or take effect, it's equation is quite simple.

Islam has a two-fold meaning;


  • submission to god
  • peace

-Peace attained through willing obedience to Allah's divine guidance.

And therefore a Muslim is;

-one who surrenders to God and is a sustainer of peace.

Alternatively one can dissect themselves through theory's such as Maslow's concept of 'Self-Actualisation'

or submit to God and have a simpler life...

if only!

with thanks to MK, without whom I would never had ponderd upon the term 'self -actualization' haha

Today

Yesterday was the official end of the beginning,

Like....nursery school,

...which you spend painting rainbows with the continuous amazement of watching the sand as you pour it into the water tray and having the glorious feeling of wearing the only Superman costume in the fancy dress corner for the third time in a row during the week.

...Just like the time leading up to yesterday.


It seems to take forever to end, as much as your enjoying it you just want to get into reception class and start learning all the wonderful things that grown ups know and do.

Like what I'm waiting for now,
now that today is the official end of the beginning.

Like when July comes at the end of nursery school,

Just like yesterday!

And you realise that not all endings are official,
they are just the start of something else...

like a beautifull summer,
like after yesterday.

Cryptoff!!!!! American Airlines Cancels Another 900 Flights

The American dream foiled by as little as a loose wire and concerns of weapons of 'Mass destruction' takes a back-seat to a technological melt-down.
So ironically 2000 Americans are imprisoned in their own so called utopia.

?

The hour I saw noon,
I knew I'd never see dawn,
'cause once my sun had set I had forever to mourn.
I wake up every morning with absent passion to breath,
and every day I ask myself....
....why did you leave?
Guilt for when I raise a smile for a joke you should be hearing,
the pain,
the hurt,
the fury,
all those nights with my tears and....
Although I know you would hate for this..
..but when it's hard to sleep,
I hear myself asking you,
'WHY DID YOU LEAVE?'

OK , so it's another useless thought but I Iike it

An escalator can never break, it can only become stairs.
There would never be an escalator with a temporarily out of order sign,
only an escalator temporarily stairs.
Sorry for the convenience.

Pandora's box

So there has been something in my head jumping around trying to get to the front, trying to get my attention but I won't let it, So I push it to the back, because I cant seem to erase it permanently. And although I have managed to tuck it away in a far depths and crevasses of my brain i still know its there, and have this constant struggle of keeping it back.
I could just confront it but I can't figure my actions to what I do if I think about it and I'm scared about that, so I just keep it pushed far back as it buzzes to get free. The only thing is I think I might run out of space soon and then Pandora's box will be opened and who knows what will happen? If only I had a room 101!

maybe

To lay there, anywhere, in our beautiful mess of limbs, our breath synchronised by the metronome from our cacophony of heart beats. So close that not even a strand of hair can pass between us. Like a whisper immortalising such a moment so that I could feast off of it's memory in the solemn times to come.

Testing Testing 123...........456...7...8.......9......ah come on!

In the last two weeks in particular I feel like I am being tested on alot of things!!!!
Some seem quite apparent at the start, others become understood when I fail and realise that there was a better way of acting, thinking, or speaking and some are just so obvious that I laugh at my own struggle.
So with this in mind I wonder why now?, is it because I am in the line up of some kind of reward in this life but I have to earn it first? or is it because I have been dragging my feet behind me so he's stepping up the game!. Maybe I just need a little slap in the face to know what should be important to me, to realise what IS important to me, and to remember that I don't have much to fight for.
I said to a friend before this all started happening that I wish I had the feeling of when I first took my steps towards him, not that I don't love him because I do but I just lack conscious gratitude of what he gives me, what he gives us, like before, where I would look at the muggy brown leaves on a grey day and feel amazed and humbled by there secret beauty that I now had the opportunity to see.
So maybe this is a more Divine lesson of the age old one that my dad used to give me;
"I'll give you something to cry about" he would say, and he did! although it's execution lacked example but I can see it clearly now in the work of the one I love.

My saving grace


As the screaming Greek and the insistent African rambled through my head, my eyes were sore and everything was thumping. I was ready to cry until I laid back 0n the grass opened my eyes and could only see this:

As I looked over the wet concrete landscape I spotted the 1st Cherry Blossom tree in bloom hidden in its urban surroundings it adorned it's place like a single star in a night black sky

The Covenant of Madinah

  • The Muslims and the Jews shall live together as one people.
  • Neither of the two parties shall interfere with the faith of the other.
  • If a third party attacks, each of the other parties shall be bound to help one another in the event of war.
  • If Medina is attacked, both parties shall join hands to defend it.
  • Both parties shall regard Medina as a sacred place, and bloodshed shall be forbidden there.
  • The prophet shall be the final court of appeal in the event of a dispute.

    The covenant stood as an agreement for peaceful co-existence for all whom settled there.
    By 620AH the Prophet had built the nucleus of a Muslim state within Medina, they lived amongst Pagan tribes as well as Jews of whom were (economically) very powerful and controlled much of the trade within a city that was built upon it. This led the Pagan tribes to become very dependant upon them as a governing body within Medina.
    The constitution mirrors the hospitality that had been shown to the Muslims within Ethiopia upon the first Islamic migration By Negus of Abyssinia.

    This leads me to understand that these ethics and morals were not assigned to a particular time or place but a ruling to which Christians, Jews and Muslims alike have signed to as a pact with one another. I wonder if we all as people of a book remember this treaty and camaraderie between us in a time that so blatantly defies it.

Information gathered from the book 'A Chronology of Islamic history 570-1000ce' By H.U.Rahman.

The points above are just a small amount of the origional treatie.
