My mind and it’s sticky notes. – Nina
Inside my mind is about 30 or so fairy princesses constantly frantically placing sticky notes along the walls of my skull. From matters of extreme importance to utter nonsense.
AND I DONT HAVE THE TIME OR THE PATIENCE FOR READING ALL THIS SHIT.
Lol
Love Nina
A little about Nina. At 3 AM
It’s morning time again, 3 am ;feeling absolutely amazing to wake up this early.Yesterday was a spectacular day with my girlfriend and I, we cooked for each other, cuddled and did random stuff but; everything was “just right”.This morning it’s great to have such serenity in the midnight hour to write away, I feel extremely care-free.
Life is interesting how things can change, turn around, for better or for worse. I’m extremely blessed to be where I’m at and I should try and use it to better myself ( and I am), over 60 days sober and no longer living in a homeless shelter as I was a few months ago ( it’s complicated) . Now…Being with the woman of my dreams in the house of my dreams. I took myself off of facebook, finding wordpress to be a far better creative outlet. Loving whom and what I’ve found here.
Doing a lot of traditional art and throwing videos on YouTube My YouTube Channel . I find all forms of art extremely addicting, perfect for avoiding idle hands. I know my work doesn’t go unappreciated but I think most artists are always striving for more and more. I don’t even have a computer but I still strive to be posting videos. The thing about videos is once saved, it’s content you can always use… forever.
So I’m in my new house! Having moved in on January first we put this whole house together almost from scratch under $200 and it’s just oh so perfect. We have 1 floor almost brand new everything and I live on almost like an island in the middle of the inner city, I cross a bridge down the street and I can hop on the sky train (subway) to anywhere in the City. I’ve always wanted to live in this neighborhood, my cousin lived here and we were always kind of close. I’ve had many adventures here, always saw myself living here… manifest Destiny?
Here I am in the manifestation, it feels good and I think I know where I am going. I’m going to great places with the one I love, creating beautiful things, building with the community, being sober, being a teacher and a role model, being my genuine self and sharing this love and love of life with the world.
With love,
Nina
:) Smile or nah? :) – Nina
Smiling is contagious, and smiling releases positive endorphins. Changing the world one smile at a time.
So I ask you… “Smile or nah?” – Nina

Why life is amazing. -Nina
Every morning anew
Forever changing skies grey or blue
Rain or snow, it can be plain and dull
Fulfilling, exhilarating, heart racing amazing and full.
Of life…
Open eyes to wonder and ponder the vastness
Alas this beauty spans our atlas
Sometimes we cry and fret, shortly forget; another step
To be free once again and play pretend with our friends
Remember our mistakes and make amends
You can’t turn back time so take each step…
Discover ourselves, inside the soul that we dwell
Grasping aspirations and fascinations
We are alive in this grace, I’m grateful
This is why life is amazing.
We all are awakened.

Why?… a ramble. – Nina
An interesting thought.
I’m content in my body n that’s cool cause like… I was a boy once
I am rambling because one must ramble as a writer.
Cooking is a delight, I do it with love.
I miss the summertime when I fell in love, although I never fell out it was a beautiful time.
The never-ending sunshine I had the tan of a goddess, bikini on constantly.
Now it rains and seemingly only rains, it will pass.
I do a lot of art to keep my mind preoccupied by this weather prison.
What am I even rambling about and why are you reading this?
Go home.

The rambling concrete – Nina
I’m beautiful with Audacity, “They call you Shade?!” He said. ” You’re shaded indeed…”. She’s nice with the raps. In depth, the homies in disguise he liked to say…
I’m up many hours before the sunrise to explore myself. Dreaming of fleeting escape, no longer trapped. The raindrops scatter my city and it won’t be long before I’m unseen in the masses; trainbound. You don’t need fare for the Zion train just hop on board.
I’m beautiful with audacity indeed. I love my markers and spray paint; my skateboard and my slap sticker collection of winking flowers and dripping calligraphy. My magnum markers leave them to manage the damage; I’m constantly redecorating the City.
I’ve found my comfort in the dark places and euphoric ignorance. Through the streets and alleyways, trains and buses. I watch this shit twists and turns over many years amongst this science of drug trade and gentrification . It doesn’t take long to be immune to the needles scattered along the pathways, human feces and drug trade swap meets. We got it. And it’s all for sale.
“Come here girl…”.
I found my home in the streets at a young age; my concrete playground. I’ve found… something… I see something. The streets are yours was the message written along the tattered wall. I want nothing from it, perhaps peace or a sense of purpose. Surely not money nor a drug rush, I have left such in the past.
Just “Be easy going,”.

The Inner Child by Nina Yin
In a sense I am lost; feeling childlike in constant exploring of earth and oneself. I am, in a sense found; by my morality with love…and with compassion… I find myself restless in time, for time is complex. The mind cannot comprehend time nor comprehend anything in completeness. The Tao of existence unwordable, incomprehensible…
We are not all knowing beings but the fabric of existence has underlying comfort whether it is productive or not. Even terrible mistakes create great lessons. The child knows love most, your inner child craves it.
Life is complex in a mathematical sense but extremely simple in the aspect of conscious thought.
That being all that we have.
I trust this universe more than I trust myself. I say this in a sense that I do not feel in control, but the rain outside my window… it is bringing life to the earth; as is the sun, moon and the stars. Endless bounded in infinity… ; that is something I can trust. Allowing the universe to take control helps me in meditations and allowing what I cannot change.
Simplicity is bliss and sometimes in my childlike absence of self awareness, like when I draw a picture I am not drawing a picture. If I am absent and I perhaps simply am: the picture.
But as my inner child finishes the creation.
I must return to the grounding incomprehensible earth.
Here I am again.
-Nina
