MPsays, Things We Lose to the New Year.

Written by Mister Promo | January 10, 2016

Last year, someone lit a fire over my world and burned away all matter that served absolutely no purpose. A great deal of matter was destroyed. Let's just say, the only thing left can fit in a one room apartment. Memories have been erased, pictures deleted, jobs replaced. All to make way for what is to come.

I remember 2012. I was excited to graduate from a dead end job, to prosper in a company with professional growth. I remember moving up quite rapidly. From dietary aide, to short order cook, to cook. All promotions I never asked for. Yet upon receiving them, the pay rate would increase. That was a plus.

All the while I was never happy.  Why was I never happy? Simply put, it was entirely because I was not in control of my own decisions. In fact, I have never been in charge of my own groundbreaking decisions. I have always been forced to do things that have made me feel uncomfortable. All because I lack a man-like backbone.

I am here to confess that this will no longer be an issue for me. Mark my words in this blog post.

"I Am The Ruler Of My Decision Making."

The only reason you find it easy to treat me like a child is because I act as such. I can only pray that you weren't actually fond of that boyish way because that boy died yesterday.

Are you prepared for what is to come?

I guess I don't really care if you are or not.

This is my life and I plan to live it how I see fit.

MPsays, Life Is Passing By.

Written by Allen Mark | November 11, 2015

When you place all of your focus solely on the wrong things, that when the right thing approaches you, they will not stop and wait for you to notice them but simply pass you by.

This happens to me quite often. Whether it be on a job offer, an opportunity to travel, connecting with others on a professional level, or even making the right choice on who to fall in love with. I have hit the snooze button on many occasions that could have changed my life for the better. Which is why I am here stuck in this rut. Mentally believing that, "it is what it is", simply because "it is what it isn't." Or is it?

I know (at times) I can speak in circles and mostly not make any sense. However, bare with me because I promise you that my mind is much more intelligent than the words I may present to you.

What happens when you are fed up with the life you are leading and you do not care to indulge yourself in the same silly antics that you typically perform? 
Stop and evaluate your situation, subtract yourself from the equation and view the situation closer. Place yourself back in and determine what does not work. Then finally consider options of change. What did you get?

I, personally, do not care to sit in solace or drown in the depths of emptiness that is created from within my own problematic mind. I, much rather, would prefer to come up with the best positive sollution and begin releasing its power into my life on a daily basis. 

Sometimes, it's not what you do, but it is how you do it that seems to be most effective. Make sense? I hope so. 

MPsays, It's Over But You're Still Concerned.

Written by Mister Promo | October 13, 2015


We began innocent, with knowledge of first names and no background check. The first couple of months were exciting. Nothing was predictable. It was as if we were actors in a stageplay. Each meeting was eventful. A party as you would call it. It was a smooth and yet delightful engagement. This being, whenever we were together, working together. Before long, that would all change. Beginning with attitudes. Happiness became frustration as smiles turned to frowns. Daily communication grew to non-existent.

Yet, here it is, so much time has passed and I am still concerned. Thinking, wondering. How can I help, assist? Am I wasting my time? I'm sure that I am the only one holding on to a rope that is limp on the other end. My hand is already sore from these restraints. I believe it's time I loosen the grip and consider the option of letting go.

Wow! That wasn't hard. Next, my mission is moving on. This should be much easier. There are many other prospects much worthier of my attention and time. I must breathe life into my future and discontinue supplying air to my past. I cannot do it if I have any inkling of an idea that there could be something when there is nothing. So, from now on, I must believe wholeheartedly that there is absolutely no chance for us. Ever.  


Goodbye.

MPsays, We Are No Longer Friends.

Written by Allen Mark | September 13, 2015

A few days ago it became quite clear to me that we are no longer friends. I know this because conversation ceases to exist since you left. I won't lie to myself, I miss you like crazy. But, this is my reality now. I just have to accept that you are no longer apart of it. Simply because when standing in front of two very opposite paths, one extremely difficult for you to maneuver yourself through and the other where the action of it would be effortless. You chose the easy route. This route you chose ended us. Now you're gone and I'm alone. When we were together we had, what some may refer to as, good times. We've connected on levels higher than I have with anyone else I know. Aside from my mother of course. You and I were good. A little too good, if you ask me. It doesn't matter now.

Although you are no longer around, I can somehow feel your presence within every sunrise.

This is how I shall remember you always.

MPsays, Things We Lose Forever.

Written by Allen Mark | August 22, 2015

It is a tough thing, sometimes, to think of the past and reminisce on the thing you had. Even when it is still fresh and seems as though you can easily reconnect with it. When, in fact, you cannot. Because it is gone and will not be returning. Ever.

I feel like this sometimes. Which is one of the main reasons why this blog was created. I get to be open. Not only with myself but with others as well. I've come to accept that some things can never return to being the same. I am slowly becoming okay with that. I have come so far and have learned so much. Only to let it all go. But it must be done. For I cannot deal.

Guess you can say that I am being selfish. But aren't we all in some way?

Before I go and leave this topic alone, I will leave you with these fabulous photos which I have snapped myself. They are from a time long, long ago in May 2015 for sure.

I call this collection, "Things We Lose Forever."
