Be Patient - A true story
A man came out of his home to admire his new truck. To his puzzlement, his three-year-old son was happily hammering dents into the shiny paint of the truck. The man ran to his son, knocked him away, hammered the little boy’s hands into pulp as punishment. When the father calmed down, he rushed his son to the hospital. Although the doctor tried desperately to save the crushed bones, he...

Forgive & Forget
Truth be told, its simpler than it sounds, simple but not easy. As hard as it is; we do it not for others, but for ourselves. To forgive means to accept, to move on; so that we don’t stop moving forward - no matter how slow we go. To forget, does not mean to erase from our minds - but to place it in the realm of the subconscious. To not leave it lingering at the foreground of the mind-stage....

The heart regulates the hands. “Watch your heart, for everything you do flows from it” - The Bible. Unity is essential, liberty not so much. Our charity is our belief, and faith is an attitude. This is the sotry of the last year in my life, the story of my beautiful struggle. The necessary storms in my life. Listen, and don’t be afraid - there is more than just blood that flows...

Erotic capital doesn’t set us free. It yokes women’s careers to the whims of men
by Autumn Whitefield-Madrano
Before I actually read Erotic Capital, sociologist Catherine Hakim’s treatise on how women should flex their powers of sexual allure in the workplace, I wanted to like it. As Hakim presents it, erotic capital is a combination of physical assets (beauty, style) and...

A bird’s feeling →
Every morning I woke up to the songs sung by birds that lived in the tree next door. I had always wondered if birds sung in a language other birds could understand, but even if I couldn’t understand the language, it had a smoothing sort of melody to it. The tune relaxed my body. I wouldn’t get annoyed like my neighbours did. They told me how much they hated the birds that lived in the...

Lonely Ghosts
Life can be like a bad dream sometimes, we all want comfort - the ones who can get us through long nights, we all don’t want to sleep alone. Everyone’s scared in the dark, but I will not be afraid. The light is always there, it is all around me - nothing is missing. I am not waiting for the sun.

The beginning would be nice, but tears have flown down so much today from the inner core of my heart, that there is nothing more I can say (sometimes you don’t have to say anything, just listen to the right people). I can’t speak to anyone, about anything. I have lost my connection to being able to talk to people (who don’t matter to me, who don’t treat me like I should). And...

The Night before Christmas
‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there; The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads;
And mamma in her ‘kerchief, and I in my cap, Had just settled down for...

You’ve got the making of greatness for you. Just take charge, and stay your course: and when the time comes you will be all that you were destined to be. You are: the stuff of legend.

Its been a while since I’ve needed to vent my thoughts through writing this much. I don’t care much for grammar or the order of my words right now, so I’ll just jot down my thoughts in whatever order they come as I go. Somehow I knew this would happen. It happened somewhat the time before, and the time before that. This time might have been worst however,it was a sort of Deus ex...

Your hair shimmers like sunlight in the ocean
You always remind me of the good things in life. You always bring back my peace of mind. I love you like the waves of the sea that never fail to stop kissing the shore of sand which every time pushes it back away. I love you like the sun loves the earth - who’s never asked for anything in return after rising up each and everyday. Look what happens with a Love like that - it brights up the...

Psalms 102:1-2 The speed in which your God moves, has to do with the Faith in which you have in Him. Today, that Faith will ignite in your Life. (Luke 17) Do not limit your God to a mere partial move in your Life. After all, He is God. (Mark 5:27) You have the kind of God that you believe you have. If you believe He cannot help you, then you are not allowing Him to help you. Believe, and it...
