LOST

LOST by Niko Peña

Alone in the world Alone in your thoughts Your passions Your interests

Deserve the dump All your work All your time Down the drain

Isolated Unstable Unshareable Not worth looking at

Stuck In a world Where you are not welcome Where you can’t fit in

A place Where others Prefer garbage Low-mindedness

They prefer Short term Quick fix Easy

They follow Non-thinkers Carelessness Shorts…

Wealth and Luxury

The most expensive dye In all of history Kings and queens Have conquered empires for it

Royalty, Grandeur and Power

Only the most expensive For the most royal For the most noble For the most divine

From Egypt To Persia To Rome To Queen Elizabeth herself

Monarchy

Imposition of divinity And power And arrogance Over a multitude Of slaves

Renewal

Fauna come together For a chance at new life Seeds are dispersed For their survival

START

START by Niko Peña

“Someday I will do it” You say to yourself Thinking that there will always be time

“I’ll work on it tomorrow” You say as you put it off For another day

“Now is not the right time” You say, but when is it ever The right time?

“I’m not ready” But when are you ever?

“I don’t have the resources” “I don’t have the skills” “Other people are already doing it” “Someone will always…

Food of the Soul

Food of the Soul

“If music be the food of love play on” Says a line that Shakespeare wrote A line he toiled to keep in a work he cherished A line he worked to keep the meter To keep the sound To keep the rhythm

But music could only feed the soul Not the belly Love can only feed the heart Not the body

Music, painting, literature, performance All arts elevate the patrons All arts feed their audience But who feeds the…

Clarifying Financial Freedom

“What does financial freedom mean to you?”

I’ve had clients before who told me that they want to be financially free. But of course, financial freedom can be quite vague in our heads sometimes.

Lack of clarity often prevents us from taking action, so I help my clients out and help them make it clearer and more concise in their heads by asking that question…

“What does financial freedom mean to…

Singing: A Pastime Common Among Pinoys

Singing: A Pastime Common Among Pinoys

I’ve always believed that one of the best forms of therapy was singing.

Singing always got me through many of my difficult moments in life.

Even when I wasn’t always in tune, it didn’t really matter as long as the song fit my situation. It was the best way I could express myself and go through a form of catharsis,  a form of healing.

Then I remember reading a few articles before about how many…

Redefining Success (a.k.a. Forget Positive Thinking)

Redefining Success (a.k.a. Forget Positive Thinking)

I’m more open to a different view of success and how my life should be like.

  I’ve given up on the ideal, because it’s infuriatingly stereotypical.

  Everyone wants lots of money, a perfect relationship, a perfect family, a perfect job, a perfect lifestyle, a perfect social life, a perfect life…

  But reality is just not like that.

  It’s completely opposite and the sooner we accept this the…
