Remembrance

2008-11-30T00:36:00.000-08:00

In life, there is death...death only from your physical being, as we have observed for so long-your physical design.

Death is just a new birth...a birth that only people who have crossed over to the other side can explain.

Much pain is associated with losing a love one...a most dreadful thought!

Yet, our spirits will always connect. Our love is everlasting. The warmth from your smile and the glow on your face will be missed. The hugs from your arms and the kisses on the cheeks are not any more...

Go far and rest the physical body. Keep your spirit alive. There will be rain and rainbows; sunshine and joy for you as you begin your new journey of life.

No need for good-byes to be said; only the strength to connect our spirits beyond what my eyes can see!

Between The Wind Blows

2008-11-14T07:58:00.000-08:00

We share many things,

during times of sorrow,

during moments of anger,

your cries are heard

and understood…

So far, so distant

between the wind blows.

We spoke of our needs,

our wants, our have-nots,

our fears, and our joys…

So far, so distant,

between the wind blows.

A love that’s ever lasting,

go on with growth…

So far, so distant,

between the wind blows.

What will tomorrow

bring for us…

So far, so distant,

between the wind blows.

Father

From your childhood, having some estranged family members; you became a great leader, educator, and parent-respected with many followers. You created and supported your family, which today, consist of more than 100 people-Your own "Little Army.”

Your successes in life are contributed to your natural talents. You are well educated, although not via the traditional school systems. Your knowledge appears in your behavior across your life-span. You taught your children well-implanting strong family, spiritual values and beliefs. You selflessly provides for them, even, after many reached adulthood. Your multi-talented careers set the path for all to follow.

Because of your love, understanding, and leadership, your family grew from babes to Authors, Business Managers, Counselors, Educators, Entrepreneurs, Ministers, Nurses, and White-Collar Laborers-YOUR GIFTS–keep spreading! You may not recognize all this, yet, it’s proven in proceeded second and third generations.

Thank you for being my disciplinarian, my leader, my educator, and my loving dad. I shall continue passing on your wisdom. Except for God, there’s no one greater, my friend and parent, than you are dad. I am thankful for my date of inclusion into your life.

May God keep blessing and watching over you!

ANGELS in Disguise!

2008-10-30T07:19:00.001-07:00

If the reader(s) of this post do not believe in giving, you might think about starting. I have always said it's a blessing to give. A person not willing to accept gift(s) from a giver, then, this prevents that individual(s) from receiving their blessings. Be kind, generous, patient, and loving, towards everyone. Unexpectedly he or she might be the person who rescues you, in time of trouble.

Over the pass few months, I have had many blessings. They came from an unexpected source. On more than one occasion I was bailed out of difficult situations. They gave freely, dedicated many hours and hard work to my cause. I know, someday, the consequences of their efforts will come to them, as they came to me. ANGELS in disguise!

Peace and Love Be with You Always...

God's Love

2008-10-29T19:55:00.000-07:00

Our life is in God's hand. We have no authority to force people to believe in him or walk along side of him. The one thing we can control is teaching his words. "LET IT BE KNOWN, BUT NOT FORCED IN ACCEPTANCE." Everyone can decide when the time is right for him or her self, hopefully sooner than later! All we can do is accept what is put forth and discharge all things that serve no purpose with our work.

Wake-up and realize that we need to stick together. Our world is corrupt and will not change. According to scriptures, the path is paved, so much so, we are more materialized, commercialized, etc., and have forgotten some of the old teachings. This is only part of the deception that lies ahead. The bad thing-one day it may be too late to change the direction of the forces within this world.

Tomorrow, let's work towards a better day!

"Mother Said"

2008-08-18T17:03:00.000-07:00

“Life is made of simple things,” Mother said.

“A freezer full, a roof, a bed…simple things”, Mother said.

“A loving touch, a friend, a neighbor being there whenever able.”

“Life is made of simple things,” Mother said.

“Love your neighbor as yourself, give your all, give your wealth;”

“Life is made of simple things,” Mother said.

“Treat everybody right, never get uptight. Share what you have with the good and the bad.”

“Life is made of simple things,” Mother said.

Jesus said, “By this, shall men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have loved one to another.”

Remember, what Mother said!

"Mother's Grandchild"

2008-08-18T16:25:00.000-07:00

A quiet peace overcomes me, when I think of you.
We had a special bond between us that began with my birth and continued until your passing away.
You've always touched, engaged, and intertwined your life with mine, whether we were face-to-face or at a
distance.
I look at mom, I think of you! I look at me, I think of you! Generations of you, that no one could match.
Your gentleness and love so sweetly enlightens my longing soul.
Engrossed in life...lovingly set free to love and be loved.
You were always at peace with yourself and life for what it is and was...Your values and beliefs were strong, and through this, everything you stood for was passed on too me!
I've reached out my hand to your tenderness; you're my friend, companion, mentor, and most of all... "The Greatest Grandmother Ever!"

Mother,

I see you, yet as you lay sleeping, just as you were before...
I will miss and love you always!

You See, We Are The Same

2008-08-17T20:29:00.000-07:00

What measures the differences between us? I am like those of the air I breathe. From above, breaths we inhale. Air is evenly divided, among those who dress, speak, and walk differently.

You see light–lighter; brown-browner; or dark-darker, complexions. You see straight, wavy, curly, short, or long hair. You see small or large teeth. You see slim–fat and tall–short bodies. Are we not the same?

Limbs are two by two, liquid red blood, and mouths for speaking. All crumbles, just the same. Limbs can be broken. Blood can be lost. Mouths can be speechless. Are we not the same?

I live not in the box of difference. I enjoy the same air. I wear cloth made from the same fabric. I speak with a dialogue dictated by my environment. I walk as required to get around. I will not breathe, when the air is gone.

When we breath no more, our bodies will decay into the earth… in the world that belongs to us both….You are my neighbor...Are we not the same?

Deception Is Only With Self

2008-08-17T20:25:00.000-07:00

Those who deceive lie not to others, but to thyself…

Keep track of the mess you speak…

Seek to be straight- not possible...

Deception is only with self.

Look in the mirror what or who do you see?
Your mouth move...
Words are strong and full of tones that reflect back to you…
Seek to be straight- not possible...
Deception is only with self.

Turn around and feel the tones that reflect from thy throne…

What is built through thy words is what lives…

Seek to be straight- not possible…

Deception is only with self.

Many will believe what they hear…

But what is built through thy words is what lives…

Seek to be straight- not possible…

Deception is only with self.

Go ahead keep track of the mess you speak…

In the end, the count will be lost...

The Essence of Destiny

2008-08-17T01:35:00.000-07:00

Watch your thoughts for they become words.

Choose your words for they become actions.

Understand your actions for they become habits.

Study your habits for they will become your character.

Develop your character for it becomes your destiny.
