Well… Lots on my mind. Too much to write.
Love Is by MwsR
Love is so complicated…yet simple.
Love is looking at my granddaughter’s dimple.
Love is cotton candy sticking to your finger.
Love is taking the phone off the ringer.
Love is possible if ever something were to be.
Love is for you and it’s for me.
Love is ignorant and foolish and blind.
Love is the clock you want to unwind.
Love is a strand.
Love is not numberable like sand.
Love is great.
Love is passion and a full plate.
💘love love……
How many of you have been in situations, periodically throughout your life that you did not really look at with uncritical, un-bias, or jaded thoughts?
I am referring to the struggles with family or friends, or loved ones.
Let me start off by saying, I have most definitely, throughout my own life. I am old enough now that I can look back on my life with somewhat of an open mind. There most certainly was a time when everything I remembered was jaded. I was letting my own personal opinions cloud the reality of the situation or perhaps I let my own bias come into the picture when I remembered back. This poem I am writing is written with this in mind. Hope you enjoy it.MwsR
Just Getting It, MwsR
Often times, all I wanted was to be loved
Never giving any thought to the love from above.
When I was sad, looked for comfort and apologies
But sometimes, people were not ready to give that to me.
Feeling alone mostly with my hopes and dreams
Life is seldom really as we believe
It goes deeper than that, what a relief!
Because if all we had was our own thoughts, we would give up on true belief,
We’d also probably swing in the tallest trees, because we’d not know any better.
We would pursue things that didn’t matter.
If we ever get one thing in this life, it would be to just get life,
Just to get it, in its true expression is a most special gift.
We all have problems, sadness, and regret.
We all have our own opinions, our own way of seeing, its like a bet
Either we give it all to risk getting it, great or small,
Or we try with our best, so to stand tall.
This is something we must teach ourselves,
Life is so much more.
Our perceptions, our reasonings, are our own
That doesn’t mean they don’t count,
It just means that there is more, keep an open mind.
Like me, maybe all you can see, is your thoughts
Then like me, things will certainly be clouded for you
Perhaps jaded and persuaded, too.
Open your mind, seek things from above,
Learn to unselfishly give and Just as important, learn to receive love.
I was never alone, never really without love.
I took my longings and let it lead me to Him, above.
Now I know, I just get it.
Random…Thoughts for today
I hate ever hearing the word cancer and especially knowing the cruel side effects it has on people. And people dying from it.
I am sure that dreams/nightmares, can consciously affect a person.
Everyone will not notice what you do for them, and that’s ok. It is done probably from the heart and that doesn’t need gratification, if it is genuine.
I love that morning coffee. It has been a good friend.
A life worth living has to include forgiving,
A heart that’s broken needs to be healed.
For us to continue, to grow, to love, to forgive, we need to have pain, trials, and betrayals.
Isn’t it crazy how life can change, in just a minute, a day, through time?
Finding the rail while traveling up the stairs of life, can ensure grounded footing while climbing.
Which will get us where we need safer. Isn’t that what we all want?
Blessed to be alive, to be able to keep loving, to be able to be forgiven, and forgive.
Blessed to be able to help others!
Have a super fantastically supreme day!
Never underestimate the power of prayer!
If the path has stumbling blocks or obstacles, go through them or avoid them. The path for everyone is different, the paths are there to get us somewhere. The place we arrive at is still undisclosed, never give up.
I Stand…You Stand…By Michelle
I stand and wonder about God’s plan
You stand and wonder too
I stand, in awe of his forgiving grace
You can stand where there is a safe place
I stand corrected, in that, Love can last forever
You stand, to reap the benefits of that
I stand alone in many things
You stand, still hoping despite what life brings
Where I stand, there you can stand
In standing together
There’s nothing we can’t weather.
As I awoke this morning, there were raindrops hitting the roof of my porch, and I could hear it. I am not a fan of rain, but on occasion, I tend to like it. it has a rhythm if you listen to it long enough. I am scared of thunderstorms that come with torrential rains, or hail, or damaging winds. This morning however, it was peaceful.
I was feeling stressed at my roof that has a leak in it. We need to put about a hundred dollars worth of new shingles on it, where it has been leaking. That causes me stress because I hate new expenses that I will have to incorporate into my budget. It may not seem like a lot to some of you, but I really have to plan around such new expenses. Don’t you?
I am trying to work through some sad news. My longtime companion, my cat, Meow Meow, was diagnosed with squamous cell cancer in his mouth. I have had this cat for 13 plus years. He is my sweetest, most loving cat. Here is a picture of him…
He really is the best cat a person could ask for. Sadly I am going to have make the hardest decision about him and his cancer. Yes, his chances of surviving this cancer is slim. They did not give him any good prognosis. So I will eventually have to have him put to sleep before he starts to suffer from pain or the effects of this cancer.
My heart is literally torn and breaking for the fact I will have to make this decision. For those of you who have experienced this sort of thing, I am so sorry you had to. For those who have not, I am so glad. I pray you never have to. It really takes a toil on you.
Please remember me and my beautiful cat when you say your prayers, or send us good vibes, and love. I would greatly appreciate it.
Sadness…it is a terrible place to be, yet it stems from something that brought you so much gladness and happiness. MwsR
I shall see you on this side of the rainbow~! MwsR
Shadows…by MwsR
Remnants of pain
Scars of mistakes
Debts that you can’t escape
Patterns that have been repeated
Crosses that we must bear
Promises that we have shared
Forgiveness that isn’t deserved
But given despite that
In our hearts is where this is at
Courage to continue
Thoughts and changes
They bring about exchanges
Shadows don’t define our real person
They merely show us some parts of us
You can change your shadows
You can make a different one
It is possible to …
Change, redefine and renew
*When we keep things foremost in our life they control our thoughts. So if we redirect our thoughts, our lives, and learn to forgive ourselves we can have a better life.
