I had a conversation with my mother yesterday and as usual
We send each other away
We talk about this that and everything under the sun
I am her friend just as I am her son
This time we talked about life and how fascinating it is
To experience it with such depth
And to have the excitement of a little kid
To be able to love with every fiber of our souls
To know the direction of the warmth in the midst of cold
To recall things just by feel
To know love, to know pain
And to know that we will heal
How we could think of the taste of a fruit in our minds
And taste it in our mouths in real time
Every memory given to me is a gift
Because I have this powerful ability of recall
That I have finally learned how to live with
You see my worst enemy used to be my own mind
I was lost and unaware of what to do with mine
I created my own prison as I committed these sins
My life became a nightmare that I was stuck in
That was before I knew what to do
And now I am here sharing that testimony with you
The memories that I used to create
Are many of the same memories that I could not stand to face
Its funny because now I am like my children
I day dream all the time
And its no longer about some world outside of mine
I am finally here, I am coherent
I can hear
I am present and aware of space and time
And with that awareness I know what to do with mine
I know the word mine has been used multiple times
But the the truth is truth
It is our duty to walk that line
You have to create they type of life that makes you keep wanting more of it everyday
You can’t live right and do wrong
So if your life is out of tune
Time to change the song
Turn the stereo to something that makes you move
Create memories that you can look back and smile upon
Because in the end if you spread love and died with a smile
You won

Reblogged this on David Chi and commented:
Carl is my favorite writer!! He flows lessons of insight from the soul. He extends a spiritual realness that is direct and not over bearing. He is like you and I trying to spread the light. His light is his words. I cant wait to get a autographed book signed to “my fam”!!
