Poetry of the Past.....

So while cleaning out my infamous car trunk... I found an old tablet with a couple of poems I wrote for my Sabbath school class back in 2002. I had a little bit of skill..hope you enjoy.

                                Who Was There?

When The Clouds Hang Low and You Can Hardly See The Road
Just Thought You Should Know, God Is Always In Control

If You Take The Time, time to realize... Who
Who was there to wipe the tears away?
Who was there when you didn't know your way? or what to say?
Who told you to pray?

Was it your family or your friends?
Neither... you say?
Then who was there?

It Was He Who Sticks Closer Thank a Brother
He Knows The Secrets hid deep in your heart

If they still ponder upon who was there....
Be sure to tell them that it was he who died upon the cross
Just to save those who should be lost.

He, Jesus was there.

                                  The Life Unknown

 Lives are stories that we read each day
Some we comprehend, others we throw away.

Lives are biographies, some are written down, some are incomplete and the others... buried six-feet deep.

One's words are deep....
Others put you to sleep
But there is only one good enough for me

The Word.

We heard it from the beginning
It's pages never end.
It's syntax is so plain, that even I can feel..
I can feel the rain when HE flooded the Earth
I can even see Jeremiah.. ripping his shirt and pouring dirt.

Its author is known... worldwide
He has written biographies, he has recited poems, he has given us advice to stay away from evil and harm.

There is only one piece of literature missing from the collection.
His autobiography...
When was he born? When will he die?

Never will it be written until he comes to receive me..
Me and the others in perfect peace and harmony, so that I can see that his life, his story, his time goes on for an eternity.

Single But Ready: Greater is Coming

So I am up doing some grass roots research into pursuing some passions of mine... hair and fashion.  While texting a guy who is interested in me. And it hit me. I am ready to date again! Finally. Lordt I thought I was going to be stuck in that negative stage forever! By the way the title of this post is inspired by a podcast that I listened to- that helped get me through entitled: Single But READY.. check it out it is eye opening. So if you read some of my post from the August/September period you will note the harping of the breakup and my efforts to rebound date. Well I never wrote about my perspective of trying to rebound date. Let us just say it was horrible. I truly do not recommend trying to rebound date, while being celibate and on the tail ends of a heartbreak... Nothing good comes from Nazareth right? HA.. ok. Basically as I sat here thinking back to that time period I was sooo negative. Negative Nancy welcome to the party. These guys were showing genuine interest in me an

The importance of boundaries

As I sit here in DFW international airport reading "Don't Settle For Safe" by Sarah Jakes Roberts, I am compelled to write on the importance of setting boundaries. Boundaries keep us safe. Safety is a primary foundational component of Maslow's hierarchy of needs. Basically, we need boundaries at our core in order to survive. Relationships are one of the hardest areas of our lives to create and maintain boundaries. Why is this? Our need for acceptance tugs at our inner being to disregard the natural boundaries that our conscience created for us. Whatever it may be- friends, significant others, parents or siblings we want to be accepted. But at what cost do we pursue acceptance? As I have grown and matured in all things called life, I realized that I had created boundaries that were too loose as well as disregarded others all together. I had to realign myself to think in terms of boundaries when approaching any situation. Here are a few of the questions I asked myse
