Be blessed and extremely happy, not by getting the love of a woman, but by having better than the best of things on offer, just for the momentary feeling of an exalted emotion. Temporary as it maybe, at the very least, there won't be a regret on the death bed haunting the conscience with - 'what could have been?' Or - 'if only I had tried..'

Strangely, the age old saying - adversity will reveal the true feelings and friendships, appeared out of nowhere to ensure the difficult lessons are not just learnt but are also recalled.
--
Many a times, irony plays a wicked joke by making authenticity dependant on the support of the circumstance; without which disbelief and or surprise just won't budge.

Acknowledgement and acceptance are probably the most underused and undervalued concepts and as such, tend to be sparingly understood. By the simple association of ego and the nasty habit of being judgemental, the human nature binds itself to a false sense of honour, superiority and grandiose expectation of getting our desires fulfilled.

Behave
Desire
As cunning as the mind can be, its the so called heart, which is more difficult to satisfy and please. Unlike the mind, the heart knows no reason to accept, no rule to follow and most certainly has no qualms about proving itself to be plain stupid.
They say, best thing you can do in life is to follow your heart. So what is this thing called heart which is apparently supposed to automatically figure out the best solution? Is it separate from the creative processes of the mind we think we are aware of?
Whatever it might actually be in reality, the only truth we can actually account for, is that - which fulfills our core needs., thirst and hunger. All the rest is the result of having excess brain power left over and is just circumstantial.
Over all, during the ~17 years of conscious witnessing, torturous lessons and incessant but mostly unnecessary passion - there came a point of realization when certain aspects of living in a judgemental society, became apparent. Not only are wants wanted desperately, they are to be acquired in an acceptably pleasing manner.
The conditional response generated, by experiencing reality from an individually unique point of view, as a reflex is extraordinarily sensitive to how it is perceived irrespective of what it actually is. Simply put, there are no 0's and 1's with universally constant values. How much and what those 0's & 1's represent is not a result of logical deduction to be arrived at in principle but is dependent on what is already fed into the conscious. Simpler still, its not that 1+0=1, its the answer 1 we want, which forces us to create the 1+0!
'Half known is completely confused' said the realization., 'Still working on it..' replied the progression.

World of View
Glycerine - Bush
Must be your skin that I'm sinkin in
Must be for real cause now I can feel
and I didn't mind
it's not my kind
not my time to wonder why
everything's gone white
and everything's grey
now your here now you away
I don't want this
remember that
I'll never forget where your at
don't let the days go by
glycerine
I'm never alone
I'm alone all the time
are you at one
or do you lie
we live in a wheel
where everyone steals
but when we rise it's like strawberry fields
If I treated you bad
you bruise my face
couldn't love you more
you got a beautiful taste
don't let the days go by
could have been easier on you
I coudn't change though I wanted to
could have been easier by three
our old friend fear and you and me
I needed you more
when we wanted us less
I could not kiss just regress
it might just be
clear simple and plain
that's just fine
that's just one of my names
don't let the days go by
could've been easier on you
glycerine
