weightless we are,
fallen of birds,
breadths within soft palms;

our spiritless flesh,
once crowned,
monarchs over the heavens;

fed from the golden spoon,
bathed in pearled beds,
clothed by spoils of war,
and that, not our own;

in dust we reign,
like withering pedals,
the wind reaps our treasures;

"oh, how the mighty have fallen"

where then is our hope ;
The mistakes I've made
Would put these new age girls to shame

Am I proud?
Nope

Am I embarrassed?
Not at all

It is because of my very flawed past
That I can currently stand tall

It is because of the beautiful mistakes I've made
That I know that I'll stand up again
Anytime that I fall

So they ask me
Are you ashamed of your past?
And I answer
No, not at all
Its very hard, but not impossible to keep on Loving others.
It may be hard, but not impossible to keep on blessings.
Those that you feel do not even like you at all Family,
The blessing might even be praying for them to be blessed.
I know that life here is never easy but it does not matter.
We are called to live as an example of what Christ means.
So when he tells you to bless someone that spitefully use you.
He shall give you the strength that you need to do it too.
For where he sends you, he shall bless you and strengthen you there.
He might even just use you there, this might be the blessing to them.
For them to see his strength in you from him as you persevere there.
