More..and time to breathe?

The weekend has passed, yet the fun times do not. It is the city that never sleeps. Always something to do, new people to see and meet.

This weekend, I must admit was fast and furious. There was so much nightlife and a whirlwind of activity. Also, the weather here is amazing! I met a wonderful and likable girl at the Tribeca Grand Hotel. She really took a liking too me, and mentioned how LUCKY I was to be a single person living in the center of Manhattan. This made me not want to take it for granted. She was friendly, blonde, young and playful.

My southern hospitality is one thing that is foregin up here. It's like I'm the nice that guy that wins? Does this make sense? The girls and ladies must be used to the opposite, or perhaps the male psyche and manners need a makeover as whole?

Last night I met a friendly gentlemen visiting from England. He had the accent and everything. We chilled at my apartment for a bit. He told me about his trip to the Midwest. He liked Columbus, Ohio. We tried listening to Bloc Party and watching videos. I told him about my recent happenings and how enjoyable it is here. I also shared with him the last resort possibilities of 8th Avenue.

The parade in my neighborhood this weekend was excellent. I bought a T-shirt for my younger sister and witnessed first hand the diversity that lives around me. The streets were blocked off and people roamed around freely. It was excellent.

There's definitely more to say and write about, yet do blogs comes with ratings? Like in the movies? Should I keep this PG or can we bump it up to R sometimes?

1) If he's from England, he's not African-American.

2) We're all adults here, George. R. Definitely R.

What does being Open Mindful mean to you???

Image
Liberal and Open Minded to me almost seem to be pseudonyms. I would guess it could be possible to be conservative and open minded, just in my eyes those two ideals seem to be juxtaposed. What in my upbringing and brain, elicits this open minded worldly outlook, and positive, friendly mindset??? It could have either been my parental affluent hippie 60's upbringing or perhaps my University Liberal Arts Education, or yet again my 5 full years of daily life in Manhattan and the mecca that is New York City. What does being Liberal and Open Minded mean to you?? Personally I think of it as being accepting of many different lifestyle choices and varieties. For example, I am pro choice and pro abortion for women before the 2nd trimester. I am pro gay marriage, for both male and female sexes. Being a Free Speech & Born here American, I also believe in the freedom of style, culture, home location, choices in dating, restaurants, music, culture, movies, music and all. Anythi

MORALS.... Who is to Judge your Actions?

Image
As we've discussed recently, each person is individually, physically and intellectually unique. What are your personal MORALS? Do you even have them? Should we, are they necessary? Let's not confuse morals with simply following the LAW. It is understood that the USA is a wonderful, prosperous splendid country with a plethora of freedoms. Of course, we are asked and try our best to faithfully follow our country's law and rules. But what about MORALS? Are you OPEN MINDFUL to morality? Whom is to judge what is right and wrong? Personally I would say just follow the Golden Rule. Simply treat others as you would like to be treated, with respect and kindness. Does having morals induce a better life? Often times, the BEST MOMENTS in my life, have occurred while having fun, living life with NO SHAME, and not upholding to a moral compass. For example, whimsical nights of care-free fun, randomness, friends, and newness. I do believe it is immoral to cheat on a spouse or r

There are a number of ways, we as fellow humans transport ourselves from one destination to the other. Whether you are going somewhere for a work commute, visiting a friend's place, traveling, or exploring our world, there are a multitude of ways to get there. Let's discuss! Which method of movement is the most economical? efficient? Which mode of transportation is the coolest? the Healthiest? Some obvious transportation examples that come to mind include using a regular car, walking, train, bicycle, subway, plane, moped, motorcycle, cab, bus, boat, pedicab, limousine, hybrid car, the segway, and more I'm sure. Feel free to add on. What is your favorite or preferred method? Recently I asked a client if she minded the windy drive to a particular neighborhood. She proclaimed, it was fair, pleasant, easy going & bearable. Personally, I am an avid believer & fan of walking. It would be my #1 vote for the best transportation method. With walking it is healthy and a
