Mr. Ganda

Rebirth, renewed. Words are never easy. Pain is always a good teacher. Pictures say a thousand words. Experience is a good marker for lessons learned. Blogger, writer, small business owner, son, brother, father, black man. Sharing my soul with you guys has been a privilege. You've helped me express thoughts and feelings I was once afraid to. Allow me to share even more.

I want to thank the team at @burtonsgrillsterling for having me the past Friday. Fred and his team were phenomenal. I had a great time. If you've not already been out there, make sure you stop by. #burtonsgrillsterling #goodfood #goodthings #greatteam

We live in a world where people are more concerned about what society thinks of them than about what makes them happy. We get stuck in situations we don't want to be in or do things to ourselves because we want to fit in. Everyday I turn on the television or listen to the news, there's one poor soul out their who's committed suicide because he or she believed that was the only way out. Women stay in abusive relationships just to be labelled as married. Men get involved in stupid things just to prove they're real men. For once, just be you. #lifelessons #poetry #loveyou #loveyourself #poetrycommunity #writersofinstagram #writersofig #writerscommunity #writing #hewritestoo #beyourself #defineyou (at City of College Park)

People tell us all the time that we've got to love ourselves first. You need to be in a good place with yourself. You've got to believe in you. Be your cheerleader first. If you've not been doing any of this, it's time you start. Date you first. Put you first. Make you smile. Most importantly, listen to your heart. Only then will you be able to be there for someone else. #thoughts #ideas #writersofig #writerscommunity #writersofinstagram #poetsofinstagram #loveyourself #loveyou #poetrycommunity #poetry #lifelessons (at College Park, Maryland)

Don't mind me. I'm just a thought. An idea waiting to be explored. Just a creation in your mind. I exist only to fill a need. Your need. So go ahead and think about me because I was your thought in the first place. #poetsofinstagram #poetrycommunity #writersofinstagram #writerscommunity #writersofig #ideas #thoughts (at Lanham, Maryland)

Hello world. So I heard my heart whistling a melancholy tune this morning. I asked him to tell me the words of the song and this is what I get. #writerscommunity #writersofinstagram #writersofig #writer #poetsofinstagram #poetry #poet by the way I'm excited that my heart's book is coming out soon #mylittleconnivingheart (at New Carrollton, Maryland)

In our world it's a blood moon today so here's one from Shadows. #poetry #poetsofinstagram #writersofig #shadows #demons #wishes #poem (at Wynfield Park Luxury Apartment Homes)

Ladies and Gentlemen apparently my little conniving heart believes he knows the laws of physics. I'm sitting here being my nerdy self watching a documentary on the laws of physics and he goes "I know Physics". Being the patient one, my Soul asks him to define Physics. Looked at her in the eyes and this is what he spat out. My Soul and I just rolled our eyes. By the way the little guys book will be out in 3 months so keep an eye out. #myconnivinglittleheart #writersofinstagram #thoughts #writersofig #poetsofinstagram #poetry #hearts (at Wynfield Park Luxury Apartment Homes)

Maybe it's just the fact that I was hungry but I managed to convince myself that this was some profoundly deep thought. So don't try to change my mind about it. Just accept it. #poets #poetsofig #poetsofinstagram #writersofig #thoughts #hunger #writersofinstagram #night (at Wynfield Park Luxury Apartment Homes)

Ladies and gentlemen. Apparently my little conniving heart has his moments. I walked in on him this morning telling my soul how patience has died. Here's an excerpt of their conversation Heart: I'm serious, patience is dead Soul: Sure genius. Who killed patience? Heart: We all did. No one wants to wait anymore. We all want instant gratification Soul: You're just full of it Heart: Really? Tell me you've not given up on something just because you didn't want to wait. Go on tell me Soul: ... #heartsandsouls #poets #poetsofinstagram #poetsofig #writersofig #myconnivinglittleheart #hearts #souls #conversations #patience #patienceisavirtue #patienceisnotmyvirtue (at College Park, Maryland)

It's the second day of the father miniseries and today the words are from the lost father. You know the one who never claimed us from the start. He was either too young to comprehend his new reality or was never interested in having a child in the first place. Don't let your life be controlled by the absence of someone who never wanted you in the first place. #fathers #blessingsindisguise #pain #lifelessons (at College Park, Maryland)

Being that Father's Day is coming up soon, I thought I'll channel the voices of some of the fathers we've lost over the years. This piece is from the father who was taken by reaper before he got the chance to say these words to his loving daughter. He wants you to know never meant to leave you alone. You are his joy, a part of his soul. #fathers #daughters #pain #loss #loveofmylife #fatherdaughter #fathersanddaughters

It was bound to happen eventually. That is the separation of my writing and my personal page. @mr_ganda will be dedicated to my written words whereas @life_of_reuben will be my personal page. I'll keep updating you on my upcoming publications. Unfortunately, due to some rather unforeseen events (on my part), my publishing company was dismantled. However, I promise Shadows, Letters to my Muse, and now My Little Conniving Heart will be published soon (of course not all at once). (at College Park, Maryland)

It's nighttime and the dark souls have come out to play. I don't usually do after darks but let's see. She'll be your smoke and mirrors tonight boy. In her you'll experience your soul. Just for one night, let her feel your thoughts. #mr_gandaafterdark #writersofinstagram #writerscommunity #writer #poetsofinstagram #poetsofig #poetryafterdark #poetryporn Thanks to the lovely @vzski for embodying this piece tonight. Who knows what the next after dark might bring. (at College Park, Maryland)

This conniving little heart of mine is a manipulator and also very ungrateful. However, being without him is worse than his constant betrayal. Happy Saturday people. To my fellow May babies, Happy Birthday. #ungrateful #myheartthechatterbox #myconnivingheart #mrganda #writerscommunity #writersofinstagram #hearts #poetsofinstagram #poetsofig #conversations (at College Park, Maryland)

If this makes sense to you please let me know. Like I said before, the things my heart says puzzle me most of the times. I want to thank you all for letting my hijack your timelines briefly. Now back to our regular scheduled programmes. Good night from me and my conniving heart. #Poets #WritersOfInstagram #writerscommunity #Poetry #PoetryIsNotDead #PoetryOnInstagram #PoetryCommunity #myheartthechatterbox #myconnivingheart (at College Park, Maryland)

Ahah here is the fifth part of the puzzle. After this, I'll put this randomness together and see if it even makes sense. #Poets #WritersOfInstagram #writerscommunity #Poetry #PoetryIsNotDead #PoetryOnInstagram #PoetryCommunity #myheartthechatterbox #myconnivingheart (at College Park, Maryland)
