This morning i just want everyone to reflect on their first love.

Before we ever "fell in love" with a person, there was something that opened a window into ourselves and allowed us to see into that. Allowed us to feel important, competitive, significant, or able despite all the pressures of life.
For some its music, others its sports. What brings you nostalgia, what brings you back to innocent childhood and true bliss?

Mine is gaming. Lets talk.

    His smell intoxicated me. where I would long to be near him for a brief moment. I know it's cliché, but I was ? in love with his essence, personality, and smile.

    Oh! His smile can light up a whole room. How beautiful his soul beams from within...with just a smile.

    Not many things or people interest me, but got me in awe.

    Certain Hiphop/Funk songs and playing ball brings me nostalgia.

    I used to be the ? who brought the big ass boombox to the court lol The pool was right next to it, so all the honeys would come to the court when they were done =P~ The good ole days.............


    I remember playing this album for weeks straight at the court one summer...

    Mines was def. Bball,..the sounds of the court. the ball bouncing, sneakers screeching, practicing and getting better at ya skills. My defense was Gary Payton status, handles was aight and jumper was wet.

    Me and my friends lived for the NBA, trading cards, watching the playoffs at the boys and girls club. Going from park to park till we find people tryna get a run.

    Cutting the bottom out of a milk crate and nailing it to the power pole. Wasn't no back board so u had to know how to shoot to be able to score.

    32...telling a ? that score don't count cause he ain't check ball


    21...ain't not feeling better than hitting that far away 1 point shot when u got twenty. ? be boxing out, looking to fee, then swish. Cause u far away you able to see every last one of their souls exit their body when that ? it. And don't let that ? bank, and hit rim...? die in midair thinking they got the ree

    Reading and Football(soccer)

    With reading I could get lost in my own world. Just find a quiet spot to myself and I could be in the jungle, space, or riding out on a ? ass sentinel with Gambit & Wolverine.

    With football(soccer) twas about the camaraderie as well as developing your skills and learning new tricks. I used to miss class because I was in a heated game during lunch period and a winner had to b decided.

    Both loves came back and helped in my later years during my travels. Reading about other countries culture, geography and language helped navigate through international lands a lot smoother than my then colleagues.

    And being adept in football(it being the most popular sport in el mundo) had me communicating in a sort of language similar to music where a common tongue wasn't required just a genuine love and respect for what it takes to be a good player in the beautiful game.

    @DTF‌
    ? used to be about to square up on that bust argument, ? I called no bust at the beginning of the game, ? ain't nobody hear that ? . The ether be so strong when you got 18 and forget and hit a 2. Everytime I had to go back to 13 i'd still win though. Oh and don't let ? be playin straight up, that seperate the men from the boys haha. You try to go back up with that ball with all them people around every part of ya body gettin hit and you better not say ? . Ain't no fouls in 21 ? . Take that soft ? to the tether ball court.

    @HafBayked‌
    Man, it took me to be an adult to understand "Stay out of the basement" was about growin weed, that ? ? me up because it was my favorite one as a kid.
