Two Words

your life is your life
don’t let it be clubbed into dank submission.
be on
the watch.
there are ways out.
there is a light somewhere.
it may not
be much light but
it beats the darkness.
be on the watch.
God will
offer you chances.
know them.
take them.
you can’t beat death
but
you can beat death in life, sometimes.
and the more often you learn to
do it,
the more light there will be.
your life is your life.
know it
while you have it.
you are marvelous
Jesus waits to delight
in you

literally Fun, literary

...hope you can keep your pace and peace, perpetual peace is a perfect place to ponder and pontificate, perhaps, proliferate some prose pertaining to pomegranets, purple pastures, and pink people...then, perchance, you may propegate a propensity for providing persistent peace to placate those persons who populate your life... the very principle of it would be your prime purpose.



Alliteration is the very best way to start your day (unless an iambic rhyme comes out to play)

*snort*

Jobs for snobs,
work for dorks,
herds of nerds.

More Vibrant than Yesterday

I miss "us" -- how we used to be. Young. Laughing. Blissfully unaware of tomorrow.
I miss how cold wind used to feel "brisk" and "crisp" -now it feels just cold, and bone deep.
I miss the broken hearts and the long long phonecalls into the night. The bittersweet.
But then again I look back on yesterday through glasses tinted.

Today is more vibrant than yesterday. And I am well practiced at ignoring tomorrow.
I can wear a scarf to fight the aching cold -besides, warming up in bed with my wife is very nice.
A heart that beats a thousand times with love, strong and pure -- is of more worth than a thousand bleeding hearts that broke.
Today I face my future with steady feet on solid ground. With nothing to miss, not even memories

Simplicity

Life is intended for lush experiences....just read Genesis if you don't believe me:

Own several businesses...experience making a living on your own.

Spend 2 weeks or more on your honeymoon

Visit India....explore Hamburg, get lost in Leon .

Fall asleep on a hammock

Drink home made wine...

Revel in the mountains...

Eat tomatoes from a home garden..

Pura vida....to quote a friend.

Waiting on Sophia

Sitting up late tonight
Everything is going so right, but I'm feeling just a little bit outside
I listened to the laughter of a little girl playing
I hugged my wife and listened to her breathe

In another world
there lives another little girl, her life became a hurricane swirl
I feel her kicking and I am praying
It's just her mother that she hopes to see

Heartache mixed with joy
the Kingdom plays with broken toys
And all of us angels, we just fly along

Laughter mixed with tears
All the Saints have disappeared
We turn off our tv's and go back to singing our songs.

Talking with Jesus tonight
thank you for my comfortable life, but I'm feeling just a little bit outside
I listened to the dancing of my little girl kicking
I kissed my wife and got down on my knees

Lord I feel

Heartache mixed with joy
the Kingdom plays with broken toys
And all of us angels, we just fly along

Laughter mixed with tears
All the Saints have disappeared
We turn off our tv's and go back to singing our songs.

I close my eyes to dream
I see families as they weep, their children are buried too deep
I felt my daughter dancing
I hugged my wife and drifted off to sleep
