Although
My thoughts vacillate.
I am adrift in a sea of numbness as the world spins around me, to at other times possessing feelings of being broken beyond repair. Somehow I thought there would be more. The lie creeps into my head that I should be more, despite the repeated counting of my many blessings.
What currents have brought me here, to this place of desolation and formlessness?
Was I heartache from the first time I saw my own reflection? Or was it written bef

A Dark Moment
In my dark moments, which threaten to consume me, You maintain an ember within me that refuses to die. The darker the night, the brighter it appears, guiding me back to You.
In my dark moments, the weight of existing and the pain of loving those who, in their own moments, do not understand lo

Unbroken
On today, Mother's Day, it is humbling to think on all the mothers that have preceded each of us.
To think that our very existence here today is the result of a series of mothers who refused to give up.

My Prayer
My God, I am humbled by thy faithfulness unto me.
To the One who was, is and is to come, bless me with thy Holy Spirit, that I might have thy peace and let go of all these earthly things. Let my thoughts be your thoughts, that I might serve thy purpose. May my life be a prayer unto thee and a blessing unto your creation.

Those who Get it
Have you ever noticed how some people just seem to get it? Be it on the job or in their personal lives, they just seem to have it all figured out.
Being an observer of people, I have found that people tend to fall into one of four categories in their professional and personal lives (of course, there are people whose success and personal behavior defy description).
As professionals you have:
1) Those who get it,
2) Those that don't
3) Those that don't want to hear

A magical girl,

who could walk through glass

What Remains
Fadora hats
wishes for what could have been
a green case of moments frozen in time
Emptiness and fullness in the same breath
Tan Alligator Shoes
Hopes and dreams made of flesh and bone

Open Up Your Eyes
open your eyes and see, that your destiny lies not within the chains of your past,
open your eyes and see, that this is just a moment and will not last.
open your eyes and see, your limits are only the ones you set.
open your eyes and see, your barriers are only the ones you accept.
If you are of the Spirit of all creation, how can anything or anyone deminish His reflection?
If you are of the hands of the Creator, what marvels in all the earth and sky are any greater?

Pookie 'em
Through joy and woe, your soul she knows. does not matter where your life may go, through your veins she flows.
She hustles to get paid, but she' ain't for sale, still you think she's for play, but she'll never tell.
Pookie never hesitates, Pookie never deviates, Pookie never carries hate, Pookie is imaginative.
Pookie might clown you, when you're not around. But push come to shove, Pookie is always down.
Pookie got game you've never seen, her skin is almond cream, her lo

How I live....
In the midst of prayer tonight, God's Spirit said to my spirit, "You should be less concerned with how long you live, and more concerned about how you live."

It is Better...
Better to entertain the doubts of a wise man, than the certainty of a fool.

Echos
I am an echo. The evidence of lives gone on, I am what remains of their joy, their pain, their tears.
I am an echo. A reverberation of all the love spoken into me.
I am an echo. The source of nothing, except a willingness to serve as a conduit.
We are an echo, resounding through the darkness, lest any of us think we are our own creation.

We don't Trust God
As children we were taught to place our trust in God. But it seems obvious that we do not trust God.
If we trusted God, we would not judge others.
If we trusted God, we would not fear death.
If we trusted God, we would not be jealous of others.
If we trusted God, we would not seek revenge.
If we trusted God, we would accept his call on our lives.
If we trusted God, we would accept all His creations for the masterpieces that they are.
