An Ice Cold Beer

An ice cold beer, that sounds real nice.
Wish I could have one now; however, I need to wait,
until...
I get out of this place and get home for the night.
An ice, cold one,
feels so soothing and smooth as it slides down the throat.
The after effects, after not so bad either,
that numbing feeling at first, not a care in the world,
not a bad way to feel.

I Wonder Sometimes...

I wonder sometimes,
why I am still trying,
I also wonder why I am still hanging on.
I know everything has a reason,
I also know that God has a plan and purpose for all that he puts in front of us,
but does it have to be so damn tragic?

Some do and Some Do Not?

God loves us no matter what.
He will never give us anything, that we cannot handle.
Sometimes, we may think we cannot make it through the day,
then something happens and we do.
That is God guiding us,
steering us in the the right direction.
However, what happened to those who thought they couldn't make it,
and didn't make it, they just couldn't hold on?
Why do some of us hold on, and others do not?

Something Old

The sound of the typewriter keys has they hit the paper, just makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. When I retrieved my typerwriter from behind the desk, and dusted it off, opened it to see if the ink was still good. It was, and as I was typing, listening to that sound, I remembered what made me fall in love with writing. The sound of the keys of a typewriter, and the fact I love it and I am good at it.
I enjoyed it so much, pressing the keys, that I decided to write my first novel on the typewriter.
The kids in this generation now have no idea how easy they have it. They think they have it so rough. Although, both generations have their tough times, but as far as tecnology, we have it so much easier to do things with less work. However, there is nothing wrong with a little blood, sweat and tears every once in awhile to teach some discipline, a sense of responsibilty, and appreciation for the small things.

Peddling

Riding the down the open road, the wind at my face,
cruising down the monstrous hills,
peddling slowly up those monstrous hills, feels like I am not even moving.

Feels good to be back in the seat again,
need to be in it more often.
Just sometimes I need that little extra push out the door.

Peddling along, daydreaming, feeling like I could peddle on and on,
for miles and miles.

The sun is out, a light breeze blowing to make the temperature just right,
a beautiful day for a bike ride. Feel good now, feel like I can do anything.

Hypocrites

Marriage: a symbol of love between two individuals who love one another and want to commit their lives together. To be there for one another, support each other, help one another grow as individuals.

Yes, God created Adam and Eve. Man and woman commit in marriage and reproduce. God knew that humans were going to live their lives, there was going to be sin, mistakes made. He forgives, as long as we as humans, understand, accept and love him. Let him into our hearts, let him have control, complete, utter control. It is his plan in the end that is executed, not our plans.

Why are there so many hypocrites out there? They honor and love God, or so they say; however, how can they if they hate their "brothers and sisters"? We are all His children. He does not hate, he loves all of us, good, bad, sinners and non-sinners....He forgives. Therefore, shouldn't we as His children model after Him?

Dissent or Disruption? | Teaching Tolerance

Dissent or Disruption? | Teaching Tolerance

Today...

Today is the day that matters, not the days to follow. We do not know what is instored for us in the days ahead. Therefore, make the best of each day, beginning with when you first open your eyes in the morning, to the first foot you put onto the floor and take the first step of the day.
We all have a bad day here and there, and we are allowed that, we are not perfect, after all we are only human. God will understand if you have a bad day, make a mistake, HE will forgive you; therefore, forgive yourself and stop being so hard on yourself.
Today is the first day, to a new beginning. Yesterday is the past, it will always be there to remember, but the trick is to let it go and not live in the past because if we live in the past, then we cannot move foward into happiness, peace, and success.

Your Birthday is Approaching Rapidly

Your birthday is approaching rapidly,
keep walking the past the birthday card isle,
thinking I need to buy a card.
Oh how I miss you terribly.
You are always here with me on your birthday, this I know,
you are in my heart and soul,
but I want you home for real.

The Time is Now

The time is now to succeed.
I have a purpose here on earth,
although I may not know exactly what the purpose is,
just be sure I have a purpose.
This I know and believe,
however, there are those days I seem to forget.
The time is now not to have any more of those forgetful days,
and just believe and know.
Out with the negative,
in with the positive,
easier said, then done,
but it is possible.
