This is just a random piece....
I've been doing alot of thinking and i came to a conclusion....
Life is life...you take what you get and you get what you give...
Ups and downs & round n round....
it never ends soo we have to learn to work with it....
Complaining and whining doesnt solve nothing...
Tossing your problems behind you doesnt help you in anyway either...
Life's full of stress n it depends on the individual n how they can handle it...
Love is a game...U either win or u loose...its dat simple.
U either trust or u dont trust...
If u dont trust, u'll never know...u'll be out before anything happens, u wont get hurt!
But then again, if u do trust, u might get hurt...Its a 50-50 thing...
Family are the only people that stay by ur side no matter wat happens...
Dont toss ur family to the side for any reason bcos if ur friends disappear guess who's gon be there?
Yeah....."blood is thicker than water" That aint no lie....
Another thing, treat everyone around you like you would want to be treated...
You're not better than him or her, you got the skeleton in ur closet too!
You might wear the true religion & the polos now....
but u dont know wat tomorrow holds in store for you...
Dont look down on others...becos u dont want anyone else looking down on you...
If you judged someone while they lived, then stick to ur judgement wen they die...
Dont be a HYPOCRITE....they dont get too far...
APPRECIATE ME while i live, becos wen i'm gone i dont know if i can hear u n wat ur saying...
LIVE LAUGH & LOVE N DO IT WITH THE PEOPLE YOU CARE ABOUT WHILE YOU CAN....
This isnt much but its just enough...
ONE LOVE!!!

It's a brand new year...but are you new? by Maria Domenica Tavera on Friday, January 2, 2009 at 2:29am
Here we are...finally its 09,i've been waiting!!!
But have you ever wondered what's gonna be different from last year?
2008, we all went through some stuff...I personally went through alot.
Those close to me know i made some good decisions
and i also made some awful decisions.
Some caused me pain & from the rest i gained.
I made alot of mistakes as well, learnt from some and still learning
from a couple & from others i might never learn.
I changed alot in 2008, grew up & woke up to face reality...
It was hard but i did it & alot of you out there need to do d same.
I lost a couple of people that meant alot to me...
Some passed away as for others, we just grew apart...
But that never meant it was the end of the world.
People come & people go just like the seasons in the sun
never the less we have to push for tomorrow
to make sure it becomes brighter & better than yesterday...
In my 2008 there were a lot of negative forces around me,
most of which, i created for myself by myself
i was constantly mad, depressed & frustrated.
I barely smiled & i hardly laughed ...
The happiness that once existed within me was stolen...
I knew this was happening but i often found myself in denial.
The good thing is, i accepted my faults & realised that
the only person that could help me find my happiness
was me.
I promised myself that 2009 would be the beginning of a new me
& a new me would change & brighten up my world.
I left all my burden and pain in 2008 & shut the door behind me.
Its history and that's what it'll always be to me.
I feel restored and free...now i can breathe
I have alot of goals set for myself this year & plan
not only to achieve my goals but to overachieve them
"Shoot for the moon even if u miss, u'll land among the stars"
That's my motivation for this year...
I have alot ahead of me and the journey's just begun...
I've got a new me & my new year planned!!!
I hope you do too???!!!
Even though it might mean letting go of someone or something
that you care about sooo much...
If it'll make you be a better you...
Toss them behind you, never look back
And head for your breakthrough!!!

A Piece of my Heart.....By Maria Domenica Tavera · Monday, December 15, 2008
Seems like lifes just full of bumps
We get confused and just feel slow
Sometimes we get stressed out
and sometimes we let others stress us out
i dont wonder why its like that
cos this aint la-la land ma dear its reality
life's long been know as a roller-coaster ride
if you didnt know, i tell you now
i have feelings...dat u gotta believe
i'm not as mean or as heartless
as you may think
but when you tryna flip the script,
be rest assured it'll flip on you
now we know no one would gain from that,
you think you got friends
and find out you got fiends
you find yourself in trouble
your hommies split on the double
Can somebody tell me why?
we cant just live our lives right
if you smiling, smile from your heart
if you dont like someone, dont pretend
it aint a game, it wont bring fame
but honesty does spare some kind of pain
I mean, i aint saying i'm perfect
but the fact is i try...
i'm myself
i'll let you know how it is
and i'll tell you how i feel about it
now if you cant define yourself
and that's why you act the way you do
that's something i cant help you with
But one thing i can tell you is
be yourself and only try to please you
dont pretend to be a friend
when you know you wont be there
dont tell nobody you truly care
when you know its so not there
Pretending will not only hurt
someone else but might hurt you as well
We get confused and just feel slow
Sometimes we get stressed out
and sometimes we let others stress us out

Look & Observe By Maria Domenica Tavera · Wednesday, October 7, 2009
Things are happening all around you
People walking all around you
Laughters of joy
Burning desires
Depression is roaming as well as the lighters...
Just take a look around you
What can you see?
The answer that you give to me
"i see alot but i don't know"
i see things and i see people
i see actions as well as reactions
Take a minute! Pause!! Turn around!!!
Now what do you see?
Yes, it's a looking glass...but what's in it?
Right again!!! It's YOU!!!
You tell me that you see yourself
But Who are YOU?
Are you the person that you've always been?
Or are you becoming what they want to see?

~*~Things I've learned~*~ By Maria Domenica Tavera · Tuesday, June 1, 2010
18 years on earth feels like an eternity
Sometimes I feel like I'm 40...
But I'm guessing that's normal for me
In these few years though...
I have learned a couple of things and others i am still trying...
First thing is first....Find yourself
Dont let me define "you"
Dont try to be what you see on tv
What is your talent?
Where is your passion?
Follow your heart & you will feel fufilled
Secondly, dont try to please anybody...
because no matter how hard you try...
You cant make everybody happy
So what's important is your happiness....
Now, im not saying "be a selfish & arrogant bastard"
but rather "make yourself happy before you forget about you"
Thirdly, what happened happened,
what will happen will happen,
do not sit there and grief over what you cant change
rather learn from it and see how much its made you grow...
Family is very important...yes they get on my nerves too
but they annoy us because they love us and want the best for us
"blood is thicker than water"
its very true...cos when everyone else backs out...
I promise your family will pull through for you...
Also, being a loner is not healthy...
Having friends is a wonderful therapy...
then again you'll meet the good, the bad, & the ugly...
but they'll all have their various impacts on your life...
just learn to tolerate the ones that need your tolerance
Love....Love...Love....
Some say it does not exist....I was once one of those people...
Until nearly a year ago when I met the one for me...
Love is not perfect...because we are not perfect...
there will be obstacles and problems along the way...
but they make us stronger...dont give up on love
Give up on looking for it....
When it is time....Love will find you....=)
Finally GOD! GOD!! GOD!!!!
He is the most important factor of your life...
In 18 years I have seen a lot...been through more...
And going through some....but there is nothing that he has not taken care of....
Keep your faith strong...and get closer to him....
At the end of it all he is the ONLY one that will not judge you nor forsake you...
HE IS ALWAYS THERE FOR YOU AND ME!!!

~WHAT !F~ By Maria Domenica Tavera · Sunday, June 27, 2010
So I was just siiting here trying to make some notes for a class....Suddenly I started thinking what I would do if I was told I had 2 months to live....What would I do?
~What !f~
What if tomorrow came along?
And you find out that your clock was ticking...
"I'm sorry but you dont have too long"
You zone out, lights flashing,buttons clicking....
On the remote control? on the phone?
What do I do? Where do I go?
I think I'd go home...
Lay on my bed and maybe set a goal?
I'd grab a scrap book, some pics, my pen & glue....And recreate what I once called "home."
What if tomorrow came today?
That's one day less from your breathing time...
Of course you can hope for a better way
But will it really get better in time?
I'd help my people babysit...
Maybe me & the kids can take a trip to the zoo...
Looking at their happy faces, smiles oh..so...sweet
Will give me the courage to live & of course smile too...
I'd take em home, & give em kisses, spending time with them would make me partially complete.
What if tomorrow was yesterday?
What did you say that you'd take back?
Maybe go back to that day in May?
When you said that he was whack...
You might not think that was anything serious...
"I called him whack, so what???"
Maybe you hit his self-esteem, maybe you wronged his rightness.
As for me...I'd give her that anklet...
That she had asked me for, & I said no with so much boldness!
What if tomorrow came next year?
You probably wont worry, just keep doing you...
Please wash your eyes and see things clear!
Who ever really knows just when they'll say ADIEU!
We never get a warning so why dont people just live right?
I'd tell the people i love that i love them...
I'd tell my momma that i dont wanna fight...
I'd tell my baby that he is a gem...
And that because of him i appreciate the moonlight...
What if tomorrow passed last year?
I believe there are a lot of things i would have changed...
But tomorrow wasn't last year, so I actually could premier...
My life as it is with some minor exchange...
I'd be more sensitive, spiritual, & thankful for a lot...
Air, food, water, shelter, family, love, friends....
If this was my last moment I'd want the prettiest snapshot!
I'd wanna spend time with my love, family & friends, ME but, it all depends...
On the division of those two months & what will become my plot....
Live like today is your last day, cherish every breath that you take, tell those that you love how much you love them....because,
Yesterday is history and tomorrow is a mystery but today is called "present." So cherish it and share it...I LOVE YOU!!!
