You Gotta Be Careful: Love Roulette By Don Johnson



As I've said before, love doesn't happen in a flash.  Though you shouldn't be passive, rushing is not the either.  You have to know when you should and shouldn't do things.  One wrong and you're going to get dumped again.  I got that thought from listening to the song "Love Roulette" by Don Johnson.

This was taken from his "Heart Beat" album back in the 80's when he was at the top of his career.  I have to admit there are a lot of truths in this song, especially in the "one wrong move" part.  A lot of us want to feel loved again especially after a break-up.  Still just because you've found someone doesn't mean that person is automatically yours.  Remember to learn from your mistakes or else you'll wind up getting dump again and your broken to a million pieces.

Yeah falling in love can send you flying to the heavens but one mistake can cause you come crashing down to  earth.  Like I said earlier, remember what you did wrong.  Falling in love is like walking through a mind field. if you make one false move and kaboom.  Still if you do all the right moves or play your cards, right things might look up and you win that person's heart.  Just remember: trend carefully and good luck.

Speak It Your Mind: Tell It Like It Is By Don Johnson




One of the reasons why some people don't get anywhere is because they can't express what is that's inside them. A lot of times, we let doubt and apprehension get in the way of saying what it is we really want or how they really feel. It gets worse when the fear overcomes their resolve and they wind up keeping it all bottled up inside themselves. I guess this is what William Wallace meant when he said about in your beds every night. The importance of expressing what you think and feel reminds me of the song"Tell It Like It Is" by Don Johnson.

Why is it that we can't say what we really mean? Is it because we are afraid of being ridiculed? Maybe it's because it runs counter to what is prevalent at the moment. One thing's for sure, when you let the chance slip, don't be surprised if you feel like crap afterwards. That lost opportunity will sure gnaw at your insides for failing to do so. In the end, you have no one but yourself to blame because if you were serious, nothing and nobody would stop you.

I remember B.J, Penn said something about pleasing other people can lead to your failure or something to that effect. Not speaking what you think and feel is one good way of going there. For those of you who still have the chance, don't afraid to speak your mind. It's one good sign that your headed to where you're going instead of keeping things inside you which can make you feel stranded in nowhere land.
