RASTA

Righteous Africa Stands Tall Alone
A dark skinned pregnant woman
Pregnant with natural resources and, ideas and talents
Embryo being fed with very little rich foods if any at all
To be Deprived from the needs and wants of a fetus
Daily struggles of a mother to provide for unborn and young
To provide for them to never want
But then…
He appears, in ..
With tools ready to take prematurely what is not his
He is sometimes suited up and seldom in rugs sometimes he even wears scrubs
He takes, steals and robs
Never to return
So I sob and my heart throbs
For those left behind. Those on their hinds
And those who are my kind
Some hustling on the grind, all weather through the winds
And I ask GOD for one thing
Which is: TO PLEASE REWIND
To give Her and everyone another chance
One to show they can make it and redeem a gift of a kind

Granted

sometimes as humans we take things for granted. Whether we religious or not we know that there is higher power. We live life without necessarily acknowledging that higher power, if asked some say they christians but really are you? you wake up each morning say a short prayer then you head off the whole day u can go without thinking bout God until something bad happens then he is your saviour. people fall in love and neglect God just as they fall out or are heartbroken they remember him.People life comfortably and forget God just as they become uncomfortable then they remember him. They say love is the greatest power maybe it is maybe it isn't i don't know. Whatever your religion maybe or if you believe in a greater power i ask that you devote your time and trust in this power because its the only thing you have no brother, sister, girlfriend, boyfriend, husband, wife or friend can feel the way this greater power feels about you. And guess what just when you think you have it all or could have it all a big bomb is dropped on you then u think and ask yourself why me? what did i do? do i deserve this? through it all just ask the Greater Power and i believe in due time he will grant you your wants, needs and wishes. Have a great blessed day.

Chronicle 1

On this journey of life i have realised that as much as i do not believe that us as humans have unconditional love for our partners i also do believe that we share something "special" betweeen us. This feeling i feel is not to be called love because love in its raw form is unconditional, it is what Our Maker feels for us.
As my teacher in an introductory college class also helped me understand.(Kudos to her)
This feelings just like others must be nurtured positively to not include negative ticks such as Jealousy and its friends. It is my wish that this feeling especially between couples grows as they want it to so that the word has less divorce cases and less children end up with single parents and women or men with broken homes.
If you are blessed to have a partner, then nurture and care for this person, share your life with them do everything not expecting something in return but knowiing that you do it because this person plays an important role in your life.
I pray and ask for God's blessing on all unions.
Be safe and stay blessed

Thank You God

Each day at the rising of the sun I thank GOD, 
for his many and endless blessings 
For the people i know, those i see, and those i am to meet 
For the souls that touch mine, For those i touch and for my shattered heart 
For me accepting the people i meet for who they are and myself for who i am 
For him healing the world especially when he healed me and also for his endless love for us 
Then i go to the next part of the thanks 
It is for what i really don't know 
for whom i really have no clue 
For when i can not pinpoint 
And why i cannot tell 
But the beauty of it all 
IS THAT HE REALLY DESERVES ALL OF THIS AND MORE 
which me, a nobody in his eyes can never quantify.. 
All the same God 
Take your due Thanks and i will continue to give it to you 

We are, You are, I am

sooooooooooooooooooooooo... think think think.................
We are truly blessed whether you believe in God or not, we are part of a very intricate plan to better ourselves and the worls if not the universe as a whole. We are who we are not because of what we have, what we wear, who we associate with. I am who i am because that is who i am supposed to be. I can't be what you want me to be, i can't change to suit you or anyone else. I love you because i just do there is no reason for it. Though i don't believe in love and its overpowering so called power i do know there is something i feel for you, and you and you. I am going to be what God wants me to be. I don't have to stand at a pulpit for you to know i'm a christian, i however believe faith, a good spirit and many other things will eventually lead us to paradise. So i challenge you today to be you the real you not the one anyone else wants you to be. Be you their boyfriend, girlfriend or whatever the relationship. Show everyone right from the beggining your true colours cause from what i have obssesed unravelling urself later especially when it is your negative side brings dissapointment. So be yo, no matter what. only change or modify if you believe it will make you a better you. Love you loads. xoxo

Never forget

Dear All 

Never take someone for granted 

Hold every person close to your heart 

because you might wake up one day and 

realize that you've lost a diamond 

while you were too busy collecting stones.
