Keep Moving Forward

If something is important enough to you...you will find a way to accomplish it.

If it isn't...you will find an excuse.

Motivation is what gets you started on the right path.

But you require practice of this ideology to keep you moving forward.

My Mask

My Mask is very hot and I can hardly breath in it.
Hiding the hurt, hiding the pain
I Hide the tears that stream down my face 
and cause me to feel like I am drowning.
Saying I'm fine, when I'm anything but.
This ache in my soul rips me apart from within.
My skin is on fire, I burn from within.
The calm on my face is my mask.
The world must stay away, I have built up a wall...a tall and strong one.
Loneliness consumes me, it eats away the years and tears.
It is like a bad nightmare...but you do wake up from it.

Depression has a different quality than the normal range of sadness that you may feel throughout the day. When you are depressed you do not feel like being with anybody. You either sleep way more than usual or you can hardly sleep at all. Similarly, your appetite is either nonexistent or increases dramatically. Your energy level goes way down and you have a feeling of hopelessness about life. As difficult as it may be it is important to get out of the house and get some help. You are not alone.

9/11

 9/11

I remember watching it from my apartment building...

I was sleeping in. A friend called me frantically to get out of bed and turn the TV on! I watched in disbelief. I thought it was a random and terrible accident.
But when the second plane hit.......it hit me deep in my gut because I broke down. I then knew that this was not a case of consecutive accidents. I looked outside my window and saw all the ambulances screeching to the 3 hospitals I lived by. There was a thick pile of dust on all of them.....just debris.
My friend went there to take photos. He showed me some of the most graphic and horrifying photos of a hand......not attached to a body. There were an array of horrifying photos which captured the intense destruction. I lived over looking the Empire State Building....I feared it would be next. It felt like the world as coming to an end. Those despicable individuals did not do that for religious purposes, because Islam condemns such behavior! They were and continue to be mass murderers. It seems like this just happened yesterday to me and it has stayed with and will continue to stay with me forever. We New Yorkers banded together and there was a mutual understanding that one wold help others who could not help themselves. It truly gave me a concrete example that New Yorkers truly do not deserve the bad rap they receive by ignorant individuals who only listen to the blah blah blah. I could write a book, but will end this with a request that everyone who reads his: please have a moment of silence for the victims of this mass murder and destruction of any feeling of security and constant fear of what was next...Let us not forget the victims and the most brave firemen, police officers and ALL who did even the smallest gesture of kindness and feeling of solidarity. They say that , "...time heals all wounds".......but not for I.

God Save America.....and the rest of the world.
We never know when these sick and inhumane individuals.....actually they are are worst than vicious animals.
Complete Sociopaths:
No Remorse
No Conscience
No Regret

Sociopaths are the most frightening individuals there are. They can do ANYTHING and not feel badly at all.
Psychopaths are better than Sociopaths because, after they commit their crime.....they have some sense of remorse. Not at all with a Sociopath.

Let's stop despising and destroying each other!
We are all a member of the same race: Homo Sapiens. We are all from the Human Race...however the sick sometimes overpower the innocent because they know who the weak are that they may inflict their evil upon them.

I never ever imagined that the US was such a lame duck. What kind of national security does the US have? What has the world become?

I love my fellow human beings....I am a humanitarian so it affects me even more harshly. I was a volunteer.
May I never see or hear of any more evil in this confused world.

Let us all love each other.......despite it all.

Uneducated Gossip...It's Always Complete Strangers who have the Most to Say!

I am writing to comment on slanderous references to me, communicated by individuals who do not know me. Since I live by Eleanor Roosevelt's assertion, "Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people," I will not honor ad hominem attacks with words in kind. I can only state that people who engage in defamation against someone with whom they are not acquainted (or, much less, apprehend the facts, which they do _not_ take time to verify) do nothing more than waste time and fill a pitiable void in their own lives. I wish them well, while categorically refuting their falsehoods.

Stephie Pahlavi Zan

Do you torment yourself?

The jealous are an annoyance to others, 

but a torment to themselves.

A self-imposed hell;

Draining what is necessary

to truly be happy and content.

Instead they suffer from

Obsessive thinking,

Insecurity

and

Paranoid personality.

Let these be your strengths!

It is so easy to allow this fast paced world and it's often propelling speed
to completely wear one down.
In life,one is pulled simultaneously and frantically to the edge of darkness.
 Synchronously tearing at you into multiple directions...
like a deafeningly loud and overwhelming roar of a fierce lion, who has finally captured and commences to devour it's prey.
What a frightening existence for the target.
Refuse to be anyone's target!
If you fall prey to anything threatening again:
Calmly remember that
"Silent" and "Listen"
contain
the same letters.
These will serve as your fortitude.

A Slow Death

California

A Slow Death.

There must be a reason that such a visually pleasing place,

is spilling over with crazy, self-absorbed, phoney fake flakes...

who are in essence living in their miserable existences...

failed lives.

They are so busy trying to keep up appearances, 

without the matching wallet.

Fake begets Fake.

No one keeps their  so called word...

No one will feign caring about you...unless it in some way benefits them.

As soon as they acquire whatever they wanted,

you can be sure that the darker uglier side of these people is almost immediately quite apparent...

Exemplifying the sad and false truths become visible...

like an avalanche of morals, humanitarianism, etiquette and basic human kindness

come tumbling down harshly

and leaving you under an enormous and heavy pile of horrors.

I can not believe what poor judgement I have unusually displayed...

However on a grande scale.

I thought I would be moving here to California for a better quality of life...untruth

People would be more caring of each other...untruth.

How could anyone be able to be nasty or depressed in beautiful weather?

Everything I had imagined was like looking in the distorted mirrors at a haunted house.

According to many acquaintances:

You know what your problem is?

You are too nice.....and NOT street smart!"

I have to escape Cali...

No one deserves to be treated

poorly.

Especially by Sociopathic, Self-Seeking, Dishonest, Uncaring

and

Disgusting excuses for human beings.

Destroy without conscience, regret nor remorse.

I am from New York City...

We New Yorkers are given a very bad rap...

When push comes to shove:

We band together and are much more caring.

9/11 proved this point.

I will pray for these pathetic excuses for human beings in California.

This is a quote I wrote after months of being here.

The title is "People"

I dedicated it to the people in San Diego.

"Sometimes you have to give up on people, not because you don’t care… but because they don't."
