WISHING YOU HOPE!

 It's annoying when you can't seem to get over a betrayal, heartbreak or disappointing moment in your life quickly enough- I know it is for me. I tend to go over the events, replaying them over and over again, refusing to admit that what's done is done. I go as far as reenacting the scenario and  occasionally try to see what I could have done differently thus sinking deeper and deeper into the mess instead of the opposite.

One wise man said and I quote; 'Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again but expecting different results,' (Albert Einstein).

He must have known there would be moments like this cos I've come close, this close... Ah well! It's time to let go, something better is here, not on the way, here already. The sun's shining and like another wise man said, (this one's still alive, thank God), 'Don't let your environment determine your atmosphere.'

I figure, if I didn't have love or compassion even when the reasons to forgive run out, I wouldn't be here. The good and the bad have shaped me into this super- bad ass female that I've become.

Today, I accept my mistakes, failure and everything in between. So it didn't work out,fine;  something else far better is gonna come and surprise all this heartbreak out of me. Idealist? Yes it is, very and I accept it.

Nothing good ever happened without a good dose of faith anyway- so no matter what any one says hope away!

QUESTION OF FAITH

Don't forget to oil your elbows and cornrows
the caking dryness of your cuts and bruises.
We mustn't reveal the true nature of things.
You cannot forget to put yourself together pretty,
dress up the scars and put on some lip-stick on your dry, peeling lips,
dye dying shoes, weather the changing tide fashionably,
who knew you had it in you.

Let's not forget to speak to things as if they were for them to become,
courage contained comes from the curious ravings of mad men,
sometimes called faith.

Umbrella on a sunshiny day,
waiting for the rain to clear, blue sky.
We cannot succumb to realism
Too harsh to face
we can hardly relate.


When the waiting becomes wanting,
Job's patience combined with David's courage,

Paul's letters reaching out from time past
I become the song of broken, desolate souls.

So until the rain shows up to quench this parched ground
and make the fruit sprout,
I arise each day to my routine and do my thing.
Wait.

Let the herald arrive with my revelation,
Erase the desolation.
He's not late or early,
Write on time.

L.I.F.E RELOADED

Live life and love.
Love life and live.
Life was made for living.
Up & down motions remind you to appreciate every moment.
Be content with what you've got.
Expect the best, hope against all hope.
Be patient.
A little suspense makes it juicier.
Loving yourself with the good and the bad makes you stronger.
A genuine smile at least 10 times everyday makes you younger.
Forgiveness makes us lighter,
Hard work makes us tougher if not wealthier,
to top it all up, the sun makes everything brighter.

Get up, take a big spoon and have a BIG bite of life!
