Part of a "True" story...

I was 13 years old
Alone in this sinister world...
No one to turn to except the four walls and god...
I saw angels in my dream every night, wishing they could help me
I shivered, tried to force myself to sleep!..as my dad's car pulled up in the garage...
But I could not sleep, the fear was too intense, "please god can you help me? I cannot take another beating today!"....crying
He openend the door and I wanted to run away again!
But to where?....no one wants to keep me, I always ended up back at home in the arms of the "monster"....there was just no way out!...I wanted to be dead!.... I thought,"Today, he will not catch me,I will jump! I will jump off the precipice!" end all my sorrow..
I tumbled down the hill hoping to be dead.
The huge hands grabs a hold of my small arms and drags me up the hill...."damn!" I thought, "I did not die?"frustrated
He made me walk on the broken leg, beat me on it...
Am in pain!...helpless!....the neighbours were furious and demanded he stop...did it stop?....No!..I forgave him!
very mad

Birthday Prayer
Thank you, God, for giving me another year of life.
Thank you for all the people who remembered me today
by sending cards, and letters, gifts and good wishes.

Thank you for all the experience of this past year;
for times of success which will always be happy memories,
for times of failure which reminded me of my own weakness and of my need for you,
for times of joy when the sun was shining,
for times of sadness which drove me to you.

Forgive me
for the hours I wasted,
for the chances I failed to take,
for the opportunities I missed this past year.
Help me in the days ahead to make this the best year yet,
and through it to bring good credit to myself,
happiness and pride to my loved ones,
and joy to you. Amen.

~The Cold Chill~

I entered my bedroom..the room temperature was normal..but I felt awkward, just an uneasy feeling...I left the lights on, because I was afraid...afraid of what?...I had no idea

I layed down to sleep..but felt a very cold chill in my legs, not normal, so I twist and turn and rub my legs together to generate some heat....that did not work....I fell asleep

I was awoken, conscious, half awake and half asleep..I saw my bedroom door slightly open, I felt a dense energy...I saw no one, I had gone into a paralyzed state...I could not move, I was afraid... I foughtt my way out of this...finally!I was free...'FREAKED!"..I got goose bumps...I glanced at my bedroom door, all the hairs on my body stood up!doh

I grabbed my blanket and ran up the stairs,sat on the chesterfield shivering....I read a prayer in my mind, asking the higher power for protection


HAS THIS HAPPENED TO ANYONE?confused

A little black girl





A stranger was seated next to a little black girl on the airplane when the stranger turned to her and said, “Let's talk. I've heard that flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger.”


The little girl, who had just opened her coloring book, closed it slowly and said to the stranger, “What would you like to talk about?”


“Oh, I don't know,” said the stranger. “Since you are an Afro American, do you think that So-called President Barak Obama is qualified for the job?” and he smiles.


“OK”, she said. 'That could be an interesting topic. But let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff - grass -. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose that is?”


The stranger, visibly surprised by the little girl's intelligence, thinks about it and says, “Hmmm, I have no idea.”


To which the little girl replies, “Do you really feel qualified to discuss President Barak Obama...when you don't know shit?”

~A strong woman~

A strong woman works out everyday to keep her body in shape....But a woman of strength looks deep inside to keep her soul in shape....A strong woman isn't afraid of anything, but a woman of strength shows courage in the midst of her fear....A strong woman will not let anyone get the best of her....But a woman of strength gives the best of her to everyone....A strong woman makes mistakes and avoids the same in the future...But a woman of strength realizes life's mistakes can also be blessings and capitalizes on them....A strong woman walks sure footedly...But a woman of strength knows when to ask for help....A strong woman wears the look of confidence on her face....But a woman of strength wears grace....A strong woman has faith that she is strong enough for the journey....But a woman of strength has faith that it is in the journey that she will become strong....
I am a woman of strength........As I stumble through this life...help me create more laughter than tears, never let me forget my total effort is to cheer people, make them forgot at least momentarily, the unpleasantness in their lives. And in my final moment, may I hear you whisper..."when you made my people smile, you made me smile".....bouquet shimmy rollers teddybear cheering daisy rose

~USED VS LOVED~

While a man was polishing his new car,
his 4 yr old son picked up a stone
and scratched lines on the side of the car.


In anger, the man took the child's hand
and hit it many times not realizing
he was using a wrench.

At the hospital, the child lost all his fingers
due to multiple fractures.

When the child saw his father.....
with painful eyes he asked, 'Dad when will my fingers grow back?'
The man was so hurt and speechless;
he went back to his car and kicked it a lot of times.

Devastated by his own actions......
sitting in front of that car he looked at the scratches;
the child had written ' I LOVE YOU DAD'.
The next day that man committed suicide. . .

Anger and Love have no limits;
choose the latter to have a beautiful, lovely
life & remember this:
Things are to be used and people are to be loved.
The problem in today's world is
that people are used while things are loved.

Let's try always to keep this thought in mind:
Things are to be used,
People are to be loved.

Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character;
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.





I hope you have a good day no matter what problems you facehug teddybear bouquet

~Never make someone a priority when you are only m

I am sure you have heard this before....but it is so true,You spend your time thinking about someone, make sacrifies to be with him/her, and to them you are are nothing more than an afterthought. Someone to fullfill their desires....you are sad and frustrated and you wonder, what can I do about it? how can I make him/her look at me diffrently?confused



Really and truly you cannot do anything about it, but "STOP!" making them your priority when you are really nothing more than their option[/size

~Accepting who you are~

Knowing who you are and accepting who you are is indeed powerfulprofessor

Sometimes we are critisized, and some of us take it as a negative, so right away our self confidence has been affected, but I think it is wise to listen to criticism, do not dismiss it, but ask yourself questions..'why was I critisized?"maybe it is true?...so examine yourselfconfused

I say this because in my past, I have been critisized and took it really badly, I felt anger at the person pointing out to me my faults or bad dicisions etc. ...I made excuses, but now I have learnt to address my weakness...yes sometimes we I still fall short, after all we am human..^^giggles^^grin

OK
We are all different, right?dunno confused laugh so I think it is better to accept we are unique than wish to be like someone else. Feeling good about ourselves can really boost our self esteemyay banana <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<banana my lil fellow..^^giggles^^he is confident......

Making a change....OKI miss EB, am this bubbly, short lil rascal..hehe, I am happy with who I am...I always look for the things in me I like, and the ones I do not like, I try to work on them...for example, I love my smile,eyes,hair,complexion,height,lil round booty..yay!!!!..the rest is personal grin


But there are things I hope to change, for example, lose a few pounds, not that am fat,but I want to be smaller, so what I do?....I work out occassionally and try to eat right...Some things we can change and some we can't....accept the flaws

If we worry about perfection, we are going to be unhappy forever because "NO!" one is perfect!...there is no way you are going to fix every flaw that you have.doh comfort

OKso you are scared out of your wits to join in a conversation or post in forums or blogs...confused Why?....because you lack personality or afraid people will judge you for saying something stupid?...come one..."SPEAK UP!"....This is who you are, say what is on your mind, be yourself, no need to be shy....people will accept you for who you are, we all make mistakes and say stupid things.."SO WHAT!"

One just has to be more confident in their thoughts..I was once very shy, and in a shell, but, with time and meeting life's challenges, I have broken out of my shell, though at times I am still very shy, but I have learnt to accept who I amwine wink

Look in the mirror, and say this is me, this is who I am and I love "ME"..I have accepted who I am...I do not have to prove myself to anyone...I may do and say wrong things that does not make me a bad person.

So now we need to focus on the positive and laugh at the negative and accept the fact that we cannot change some things about ourselves....have a good week peace teddybear bouquet boogie dancing danceline

~Unhappy miserable people!~

Some people make it their duty to make other people's life miserable. They strive on that, it's their way of life and for them, this is fun!.....They need THERAPY!..

They are unhappy and they want you to be teh same. You need to isolate yourself from these people, or they will do their operations on you big time!.....
laugh


A wise man once sais"The blues ain't about feeling better, it's about making other people feeling worse"


I personally call them TOXIC People,they are all around us, they are annoying, abnoxious, irritating, and depressing. They can dampen your spirits. They can get you fired, on a job, ruin your relationships with spouses, friends, relatives, lovers. They can erode your self esteemdoh

Be careul of unhappy miserable people! chances are you have encountered one in your time....they are not noticeable immediately....but overtime,their true nature is inevitably revealedwow

They just bent on being chronically miserable no matter the circumstances. so if you are in the presence of a miserbale person, ..."RUN!!!"....you are probably not going to change that person....


when I am faced with miserbale people, I simply tell myself that "I am OK"...or having a postive attitude, even when those around me are negative. I have learnt to laugh and not take them too seriouslygrin

But be careful not to laugh in an unhappy miserable person's face, he or she may think you are laughing at them...Just ^^CHUCKLE^^ quietly insteadrolling on the floor laughing

If you tend to blame others, hold grudges, envy others, be critical and complaining, you are miserable, so recognise it and take steps towards "CHANGE"..humble yourself and start asking people in your life for forgivesness

POSTIVE VIBES ONLY...PEACEpeace
