There's nothing I can't face,
Nobody but me decides my fate.

I know it seems my head has been out of place,
But winners always seem to look that way
Right before victory
The whole world seems to trouble me.
Lingering insecurities,
Banish themselves when I just let myself be.  

I know nothing is perfect,
but that means it kind of is.
When you don't give up searching,
You learn what timing is.
You learn to fly within.
You finish fifth but still find ways to win.
Darling, that's the world I'm living in.
It's always worth it, beginning, middle, and end.

Everyone of you is blessed.
I was facing a year,
never shed a tear,
I have not a single fear.

I'm always facing these tests.
I will never be weak,
you can can call me a freak,
but through God I speak.

In times of ultimate stress.
I find beauty in the time,
I will never lose my mind,
love makes me feel fine.

I don't care what anyone says, I will hold my moms hand in public. I will kiss my moms cheek when she drops me off at school. No it's not childish, it's just showing the love and respect my mother deserves. One day my mom is not gonna be here to hold my hand so while I have the chance to I'm gonna do it. God blessed me with a beautiful mother and I'm never gonna stop saying I LOVE MY MOM!..

To anyone that says they hate their mom I feel Pity for you. Maybe you didn't have the best mom ever but she's still your mother. You're mom might not be home a lot but have you stopped to think it's because she's working hard because she has to put a roof over your head and food on your plate. You're mom does care about you but we all have problems and your mom just doesn't want you involved in them.

Always love and respect your mom because they're not eternal, while you have the chance to love her please do it. She's your mom and nothing can ever change that!

I never thought banging on these keys until my emotions subsided would matter.

I never thought it would result in things as sweet as this.

I never thought I would ruffle feathers

I never thought I could change the world.

I never thought anyone, anywhere would read my words.

-but if you are,
Take something from it. That's why the words are there. Take hope, love, redemption, but be careful, there are those out there who don't take kindly to your happiness, sometimes I think they're everywhere.

I saved my childish heart for you
and luckily for me you took it
our life of glorious ups and ups
across the world or just next door
I would never have wanted anyone else
I couldn’t have loved you more.

Who could ever imagine
how amazing a person could be
the goodness and love you’ve given
you’ve given only to me
and why I ask was I ere so blessed
we make our choice with a heart that’s free.

There are times even now when I catch
my breath and feel a wonderful sigh
of contentment at my very full glass
and I smile as I think of my riches
it’s as if I’d been given all of that bread
and eaten all of those fishes.

After these thoughts my pains just ease
I’ll deal with those another day
and in your beauty I will bide
I’ll not change a single thing
but listen to your beating heart
and hear my own heart sing.

We are never blessed without reason.
It's not because of anything that you have done,
or anything you deserve.
You're given a blessing to share with others.
That's why you're here.

Woven throughout the passage of time
a life image of every soul
each setting out on its journey
and striving to reach the goal.

Often falling along the way
each choice a test of fate
and wrong decisions that will be made
results we don’t anticipate.

A bitter word here, a kind word there
differences that we settle
choices for peace or violence
oft put us on our mettle.

Encounters on the way we make
can cause us so much ill
but choices that we make for good
will linger with us still.

And so we make our journey
each move is new and fresh
the aim to be true to one’s self
from that day we leave the crèche.

Perhaps we choose a mate ere long
to help and guide us through
the best ones are the ones we love
they help to keep us true.

We have our faith, a private thing
it helps us as we travel
and when we stumble and we fall
we sometimes will unravel.

It’s then we test in our belief
and sometimes we’re found wanting
but guidance from within the faith
can make our tasks less daunting.

And so we pick our way again
our faith perhaps restored
and certainty that lives well spent
are blessed and never bored.

If we work hard and we believe
and keeping faith try not to stray
a time will come at journey’s end
when we will see the better day.

I woke up this morning
I felt like singing

With love and faith
No sorrow, no hate

No pressure, no tear
No stress, no fear

No Why or How
To Him I bow

I must confess
I am so blessed!
