LIVING FOR TODAY

Living for today is not always the easiest thing, but it is the best thing to be happy. Leave the worry and stress where it comes in and park it there. Do not carry it or drag it around with you. Today is what you have and live it! Tomorrow is NOT promised to any of us.  We cannot live in fear of what tomorrow might bring. We can be hopeful of the possibilities that may present themselves. How exciting is that?
Today if it's raining, smile and grab your umbrella. If you get stuck training to dodge the raindrops, just consider "singing in the rain" and have a great laugh! It works wonders for the spirit. Laugh out loud often! Then remember to always keep a smile in your heart and on your face.

Never Too Old To Learn


One never thinks that after years of schooling, you would discover that you really are not well learned at all. In fact, you might surprise yourself to know you "don't know jack". It really is quite shocking to discover that everything you thought you knew and understood is all quite distorted to say the least especially if it has anything to do with our knowledge and understanding about our family or dear friends.
Maybe we can benefit to learn best by constantly changing our prospective or vantage point allowing us to gain a better prospective on the reality from each vantage point because there are so many. The truth is that each vantage point holds its on reality and it is its truth, not ours!
I know without a shadow of a doubt, I have been shocked, pleasantly surprised and down right dumb-founded as to what may have seemed obviously clear. Wonder if that just has to do with aging or maybe we just lose faith in the natural coarse of things. But regardless your point of view, you are never too old to learn. In fact, as long as we live, there is hope and with that we are always learning.

A Path Made of Faith

                              I hope that you enjoy original poem of mine!

NEW BEGINNINGS

New is always nice to have no matter what it is. But a "new beginning" is even better because it has the promise of continuing. 


Just like the new rose bud that blossoms into its magnificent form. The first stage is delicate, but gentle. With nurturing it will continue to grow. Carefully its petals will open and show what secrets lie beneath. 


This "new beginning" young but aware of its surroundings, waits to be appreciated as it continues on. Promises of tender loving care is its daily requirement to become all it can be.

In The Stars

There it is, up above. Over our heads like a carefully guarded crown that each of us wear. As we lift our eyes to gaze upon the wonderment of it all, we suddenly are adrift amongst the stars above. 
No matter where we are, we wear our crowns. It proudly glistens throughout its range each and every one a precious gem. Holding fast to its station, never faltering, what responsibility to this crown do we bare? 


We move about our lives indifferent of the crown we bare. Bestowed upon by the heavens themselves, how do we honor this crown? We make sure that the vessel that wears it be recognized as sacred; for we are our own temple. Within us our spirit assumes the responsibility of this illustrious gift. 


Hopefully throughout our daily dealings we hold fast to the crown we wear and honor it by honoring each other. For we all are glorified by the same gift and are crowned each the same. Respect each other and honor our true gift.

CONCESSION


Here lost amongst all the other stones
I lay
Wondering how I will be seen from all that 
are on top
I struggle to stand out despite we're all 
the same
Some think that they are greater just because 
of their size 
Others just keep you pinned locked in just
one place
Daily it's a struggle just getting equal access
like all the ones on top
But time has shown that some things never change
It's concession time to just lay among the others
and be seen or not.
