3 Years
Dad passed away 3 years ago today.
Sometimes I still wonder
what he would say to me
if I tell him my worries.
I miss you, Dad.
All I ever wanted
Today, my kid asked me this question.
“Dad, why did you choose to have your job on computers?”
I answered, “Because I like it and it’s a good job.”
“Okay.” He replied.
“If you weren’t working with computers, what would you have been doing instead?”
“Well,” I paused.
“I always wanted to be a musician.”
“A Rock Star?” He beamed at me.
“Yeah! A Rock Star.” I answered as I laugh.
“Awesome!” He smiled.
“So, if you weren’t a Rock Star, what would you have been?”
I stopped and thought for a moment.
And I took another moment.
And another.
I actually have no answer.
I couldn’t think of anything else that I’d be doing.
I wanted to be a Musician.
A “Rock Star” if you please.
It’s all I ever wanted.
Not much of the glamour or the lifestyle.
Just the Music.
Me and Music.
I believe in the love for it.
The passion you feel when you hear it.
The inspirations that comes when you play it.
The beauty that makes you feel when you’re in tune with it.
As my son looks at me, waiting for an answer,
I said, “I think that’s it. I don’t want to be anything else.”
He continues on playing with his stuff.
I think he got his answer.
It may not make much sense to him right now,
but when the time comes,
I am sure that one advice I’ll be giving him
when he thinks of what he wants to be,
is to find his passion.
Find his dream.
Find his Love.
And not just follow it.
Not just to chase it.
But to Grab it by its face and own it.
By then, he may not have everything,
but at least he has his happiness.

Just Because..
You have to understand..
Just because everybody likes you
Doesn’t make you better than me.
Just because you are friends with the boss
Doesn’t mean you are the boss.
Just because you drive a fancy car
Doesn’t make you a better driver.
Just because your house is beautiful
Doesn’t mean it will be filled with love.
Just because you can go to a lot of places
Doesn’t make you a traveler.
Just because you look nice
Doesn’t mean you are clean.
Just because you have the perfect girl
Doesn’t mean she loves you.
Just because you have nice things
Doesn’t mean you are rich.
Just because you’re OK,
Doesn’t mean you’re not hurting.
Just because you are devout
Doesn’t make you holy.
Just because you’re never alone
Doesn’t mean you’re not lonely.
Just because you’re honest
Doesn’t make you truthful.
Just because you have patience
Doesn’t mean you have peace.
Just because you’re satisfied
Doesn’t mean you’re happy.
Just because you do Charity,
Doesn’t mean you are Generous.
Just because you have Hope
Doesn’t mean you don’t doubt
Just because you have Love,
Doesn’t mean you don’t Hate.
The world is always double sided.
Yes or No.
True or False.
Black or White
Good or Evil.
Just because you made a decision
Doesn’t mean you’re decided.
Either you choose for others.
Or you choose for yourself.
And just because I wrote this
Doesn’t mean I make sense.

Time off!
Out of town for the weekend.
Just for the sake of argument, let’s just say I deserve this break.
I just want to see if I am going to set the alarms off at the airport
with my new Metal parts since the surgery.
Watch the news tonight, Ok?
I’ll try to do some updates on my Twitter feed
if I get the chance.
And that’s a big “If.”
And by “If”, I mean..
“If, by any chance someone actually reads this crap.”
Are you still reading this crap?
What’s wrong with you?
Later Peeps!
As needed
One funny thing about life is that a good percentage of people
fall under the “As needed” category.
You know what I mean?
The ones who you remember, or like,
only when you need them.
The person who can hook you up.
The one who can help you with something.
The individual who can get you out of a situation.
But after that,
once the favour has been done,
they are nothing.
Nothing.
Just like that time when I got treated badly by some folks who
didn’t think of me as an equal or as someone who matter.
But when they need some computer help or any technical questions,
I become their best friend.
I guess it’s my fault for letting them treat me that way.
No matter.
I don’t really care.
Maybe someday, the “as needed” people
Would learn how to say “NO!”
Because there’s a fine line between
“As needed” and “Abused.”
And I feel like I am crossing from one to the other.
