I wonder about the reasons why people do what they do. Sometimes, I think about my life and the path I've been taking.
It really is about choices. Each choice a person makes leads them to the next choice. It's our choices that define us.
I think, by being born in the '70s, I make choices that are reflective of those times. Turbulent times they were. A decade of change. I also think that being born and raised in Baltimore is reflected in my life choices as well. The biggest one being getting the hell out of there.
The one choice that I truly believe is my guiding force in life is my choice to be Muslim. My beliefs keep me stable. My faith in God is my anchor. It's also my rudder. And, the wind in my sails.
I belive that to have faith in God is human instinct. So, trust your instincts. And if they ask you why, tell them that it's human nature.
My Favorite Lyric This Week:
"Human Nature" by Michael Jackson
Looking out
Across the night-time
The city winks a sleepless eye
Hear her voice
Shake my window
Sweet seducing sighs
Get me out
Into the night-time
Four walls won't hold me tonight
If this town
Is just an apple
Then let me take a bite
If they say -Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature
Why, why, does he do me that way
If they say -Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature
Why, why, does he do me that way
Reaching out
To touch a stranger
Electric eyes are everywhere
See that girl
She knows I'm watching
She likes the way I stare
If they say -Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature
Why, why, does he do me that way
If they say -Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature
Why, why, does he do me that way
I like living this way
I like loving this way
Looking out
Across the morning
The city's heart begins to beat
Reaching out
I touch her shoulder
I'm dreaming of the street
If they say -Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature
Why, why, does he do me that way
If they say -Why, why, tell 'em that it's human nature
Why, why, does he do me that way
I like livin' this way
