Love is patient,
love is kind.


It does not envy,
it does not boast,
it is not proud.


It does not dishonor others,
it is not self-seeking,
it is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs.


Love does not delight in evil
but rejoices with the truth.


It always protects,
always trusts,
always hopes,*
always perseveres.


*Love never fails.
---------------------
The above is very old
And
Has never changed
-------------
Love is not lust.
Love carries you through
The difficult times.
There is
Faith
Hope
and
Love
To complete your life.
The greatest of these
Is LOVE

Without Love
I am nothing.
What better
For Valentines Day

Nothing hurts more than an insult

Nothing hurts more than a misunderstanding

And here I am

Ready to accept all the hate

If you hate me of what you think I am

Then, yes I accept all your hatred

Even mighty God has to face some hatred

Am just nothing under his holy feet

But, your hatred makes me stronger than you ever imagine

And thank you for your kindly hatred
Yes am distressed and upset a bit

But, my strength is immense

Which help me come back like

Anything you ever seen

I don't scold you because that's not what I was

Thought from my childhood

I pray for you instead to God to bless you

I have so much love with me

So there ain't no space for hatred

Thank you all for reading

So simple
So sadistic.
Satirical and
Sad.

A storm of emotions it
Seems I'm going mad.
Concept: There is so much noise around but I am in my own small world and it is blissfully quiet. No one's words can touch me here.

Love

If someone asks me

What it was,

An undefined and unknown meaning

My vocabulary is poor
My sentence framing is bad

I only can show
at the right time
at the right moment


Not by words
But by silent actions

filled with original emotions

Like heart beats
Like lungs purify


Unconditionally
Yes, it's unconditional

And access is unlimited times

My world filled with negatives
But, I choose to

Multiply pair of negatives to
Make them positive

Yes, you do need some negative
In order to achieve something positive

Conceptually, a negative going sine wave
Too have same amplitude of positive that's what
supporting our appliances in collaboration
With positive
So when you have negative energy

Try multiplying them and make them positive

In a glass bottle
of cerulean blue
sent out to sea
a message for you

Floating on tides
finding it's way
across the blue ocean
are the words that I say

The bottle holds wishes
some hopes and some dreams
of which you are needing
to sew up your seams

They are sent with a kindness
and a hope for one day
you will open the bottle
and again find your way

The wishes inside
are for you to find peace
for you to let go
for your sadness to cease

The hopes are for quiet
like a balm for your soul
to find once again
a way to be whole

The dreams are of silence
to be still without sound
for a mind that will settle
and serenity found

The very last wish
is of healing and care
sent with all hope
from this Little Bear.
After receiving a message to say...
"seems kind of arrogant and patronizing, just constructive advice." I wanted to apologise for maybe coming across as both arrogant and patronising. I really hadn't intended it to be so.. I appreciate any constructive advice, but unfortunately I cannot reply as the sender has blocked me. Should you read this, I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to message me.

For Bill... While I wish for you every hope for future happiness, I must also keep myself sane and whole for my children, my friends and myself. I wish you well and hope you find peace, stillness and quiet in your life again. I believe that in time, you will.

Nang buhay pa si Itay,
May tubig pa ang balon.
Kanilang tinabunan ng lupa
Ang tubig sanang bukal.

Lumisan ako’t yan ang utos Niya,
Pagbalik pala’y
Siyang tubig ang pagpapantingan ng tainga.
Inangkin nyo, sa inyo na.

Una’t pangalawa’y pinag-awayan pa natin,
Bagkus sa pangatlo’y doon pala ang biyaya.
At doon Siya nagpakita sakin,
Nilatag Niya ang pangako Niya
Na minsang para kay Itay lamang –
Ngayo’y buhay na rin ang pangako
Sa aking henerasyon.

Did we make it home
After years of wandering?
Can we see the lights?

Bow down my soul in worship very low
And in the holy silences be lost.
Bow down before the marble man of woe,
Bow down before the singing angel host.
What jewelled glory fills my spirit's eye,
What golden grandeur moves the depths of me!
The soaring arches lift me up on high
Taking my breath with their rare symmetry.

Bow down my soul and let the wondrous light
Of beauty bathe thee from her lofty throne,
Bow down before the wonder of man's might.
Bow down in worship, humble and alone;
Bow lowly down before the sacred sight
Of man's divinity alive in stone.
