I have no trouble stilling my mind as I move my body through Yoga, but when I sit to meditate, even for just a few minutes, my mind dances from thought to thought. I try. I really do. But whether I’m sitting for the first five minutes of a yoga class or for a longer stretch at home on my own, I very rarely find even a moment of peace. Those thoughts, they plague me.
But at least I’ve noticed some themes in the ways my mind wanders. That’s an important step, right? To identify the thoughts without judgement, and them let them drift away?
Namaste...

He is your friend...
He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion...

I want to...
I want to speak with these words,
that bombard me when I think of you.
I have more to say when I've been around you
I think more interesting thoughts.
And you?
I watched you smile, sleep and breathe
in my company, under my watchful eyes.
I saw you feel those mysterious things.
I touched beyond your guarded gates,
I saw you feel so many things….
I want to sleep in your body warmth….
I want to lie in the grooves of your flesh….
I want to smell you on me…..
I want to taste all of you….
that bombard me when I think of you.
I have more to say when I've been around you
I think more interesting thoughts.
And you?
I watched you smile, sleep and breathe
in my company, under my watchful eyes.
I saw you feel those mysterious things.

I saw you feel so many things….
I want to sleep in your body warmth….
I want to lie in the grooves of your flesh….
I want to smell you on me…..
I want to taste all of you….

Dreamer. Nothing but...
Each man has a dream image of himself and his lover. As lovers it is our purpose to answer that dream.
The challenge is that it is not readily apparent which man has which image in his mind. He may not even know it himself. It takes a genius to discover it. All great courtesans were geniuses that way.
They pull out what is deepest in other people and give it a face and form. Such is magic. Forget whether you're tall enough, buffed enough, smooth enough, tanned enough....
The spellbinding comes in summoning forth this deepest desire and dream, and making it live. And in doing this you may find yourself changed as well,and you may come to love him.
For there is the possibility he may answer your deepest secret dream.
Always that possibility...

The answer...
Why do you give the impression that you'd rather not be loved?
You almost tell me not to bother.
Why are you neither one thing nor the other?
Why do you fluctuate between ticks and crosses,
Won't you confirm or contradict my guesses?
I know you're real, which means you work, pay taxes,
drink and suffer hangovers.
I know you know what sex is.
Still, there is something in you that never mixes,
something that smells like the air in silver boxes.
It makes me suddenly afraid of asking,
suddenly aware of all the things I'm risking.

Who'd know...
As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken, probably more than once, and it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend.
You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back.
Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot; who calls you back when you hang up on him; who will stay awake just to watch you sleep. Wait for the guy who kisses your forehead; who wants to show you off to the world when you are in your sweaty gym gear, who holds your hand in front of his friends.
