The Allure Of Leather Jackets: Black Leather Jacket By Motorhead

When you get older, you'd see fashion trends come and go.  One minute, this is what's in and before you know it, something else is in style.  I was never one for the tends or what currently in style.  I have to admit, there some types of clothing that will never go out of style such as:  cowboy or worker's boots, sneakers, jeans etc.  One type of clothing that I know will never run out style and probably my favorite is the black leather jacket.  My obsession with that kind of clothing can best be described in the song "Black Leather Jacket" by Motorhead.

Nothing makes quite a statement when one dons a black leather jacket. Whenever you someone wearing it, it tells that this guy is mean or tough.  I remember when the weather was cold and my friend was wearing one, I felt like I had to have one.  I got first jacket when I was in college but the quality wasn't very good and the leather was soft.  Later in life when my parents when to the States, they bought a bonafide leather jacket as well as accessories to clean it and I was so happy that I took good care of it to this day.

Some people criticize that it's impractical to own here because it's always hot and when the weather's cold.  I don't care so as I own, I'm happy with it and I still maintain it.  At least I have something to use when I go to a cold place.  No matter what the fashion trend is, it can't be denied that when you don a black leather jacket, it makes a statement.  That's what I like about it.

Trying To Stay On The Straight And Narrow: Stay Clean By Motorhead

We all know that no one's perfect and there times that we make a lot of mistakes.  Sometimes those mistakes can be so devastating that you really find yourself in the pits of Hades.  Still if you're determined enough, you will climb out of there no matter how long or how hard it takes.  Just remember to learn from the mistake and keep out of trouble.  When it comes to keeping out of trouble, it reminds me of the song "Stay Clean" by Motorhead.

Yeah well when it comes to making mistakes, I sure made a lot of them which is why I am where I am now.  The worst part of it is that lightning struck me twice and that wasn't good.  Just when I though I climbed out of the pit, something happens and I'm at the bottom of the barrel.  What's worse is that this take took me a lot longer to get out.  Apart from that it took away what could have the best period of my life.  

Though times are hard and uncertain, at least my life has dignity again.  Still I have lot to fix if I am to find real happiness and contentment.  That's the reason why  I keep my nose clean and my head clear cause I' don't, I might get another taste of falling down and I'm sick of it.  A chance at salvation should not be wasted which is why I am staying on the straight and narrow.  Hopefully, I'll get things right at the end.

Nothing Like Metal To Get That Kick Butt Feeling: Killed By Death By Motorhead

One thing I like about listening to heavy metal is that it's good for getting the bad blood out of your system by taking out whatever inhibitions that you have. A lot of times, people are polite to the point of being "too nice" that others just keep pushing thinking that they can do it all the time. Little do they know that when they do that, they light a long fuse that's lead to a very big BOOM! It's because the "nice guys" have been turned inside out into very angry and bulging-eyed maniacs who want to cut loose. Motorhead's song "Killed By Death" is a great song whee those who get pissed and want to cut loose.

It's not like I suddenly want to trash the place or just go berserk, but when people just start pushing your buttons and ruining your day, your good mood starts to run out of your body and your temper's suddenly rising. Then it gets to the point where you start talking back or start throwing back cause you can't take it anymore. This is especially true for a lot of people who have no time for themselves and hadn't had a break for so long. You can already tell that they are at that level when the smile is stiff and the veins start showing in the clenched hand. Add a little heavy metal and let the sparks fly.

I'm not trying to metal into a bad light and I'm quite a fan of the genre. There's no denying that it's good to listen to when you're annoyed at certain things that's been going around you. Just lock yourself in your room and pump up the volume. If possible, punch the bag or do some push ups. That out get the bad blood out before you spill blood. There's nothing like metal to get that kick butt feeling and get that bad temper out of your system.
