Everyday we write a new chapter
Along with traveling on a journey
We build strength and character
While sailing about on the sea
Moving with a forward motion
With the pleasant sceneries
Everything is taken in stride
While feeling the gentle breeze

Another morning is upon us
We start over again
There lies another opportunity
To better yourself my friend
Enhance your mind
Move towards the light
Put effort and energy into everything
And make things bright

Continue to try
Push yourself harder
Be that power source
In order to make your world sharper
It all starts with you
Always be on the move
With strength and vitality
You can find your inner groove

Everyday that we live
There will be a test
Manage your time wisely
In order to give it your best
Potential pitfalls will appear
Rise above those obstacles that try to deter you
Keep your head upward
And guide your way through

I sipped from
Your cup Swami
like a hummingbird
perched precariously
on the edge of the universe
and fell head over giddy heels
into whirling starry bliss of that nectar


...***...
I have never been the same
the world calls me a fanatic
and You a figment of my imagination
But I don't care!


I'm Batty for Baba
Gaga for God
Jumping with Joy for Jah!

It totally blows away

Every speck that we think we are

Our proud plans, delirious dreams,

frightened cries, desperate prayers

Crystal dust settling on the moonlit face

of the Sphinx

All That Remains is God

Stay dedicated and determined
Continue to lift yourself up
Believe that you can do it
Always rise towards the top
Excellence is within you
Put your mind to everything in order to soar
Fulfill your obligation
Edify yourself some more

I lay on the ground ****** and bruised.
Momentarily dazed and confused.
Looking up at my opponent, that which we call Life.
Standing over me, filled with heartache and strife.
Trying to hold me down, foot upon my chest.
Taunting me to stand again, to manifest.
To reassess my situation, the choices that have to lead to this moment.
I lay battered and broken, silently moaning things left unspoken, wistfully hoping for another opportunity.
The possibility to show my determination and ability to overcome such adversity.
My opponent steps away smiling, encouraging me to get to my feet.
Yelling that my time is not over; telling me I have much to complete.
I look up to see Hope in my corner, that which fills me with light.
To stand again determined and continue to fight.
Knowing good and well I will fall again in this brawl.
That I will have to crawl, struggle, and give it my all.
For this opponent, Life, he ain't easy.
Though he smiles, he is crazy, quite unfair, at times ******.
I must remember the things I am fighting for.
Love, friendship, happiness, the things I adore.
Hindsight is 20/20, regret is meaningless, time cannot be reversed.
I look forward, smile back and yell ,"I am right here. do your worst!"

Girl, just find yourself
And be your own sunshine
Be that positive motivating force
In order to keep everything in line
Rise above those obstacles
That simply weigh you down
Let no one dull your sparkle
Lift yourself and adjust that crown

I've always had a soft heart.
People often find ways to use it
against me, but still, I stay soft.
They say it's a weakness, to care.
I say it's a strength.
To stay caring about everything in
a world where it's far too easy to
close up, turn your walls into
brick and never let anyone in.
My softness is not a weakness.
It is the best things about myself.
I whisper into sunflowers and
they grow out of my skin.
I have a garden in my lungs,
blooming under the warmth of
my delicate care.
My softness is what makes me
human, what makes me so
uniquely me.
I don't know who I'd be without it.
My heart on my sleeve is one
thing I carry so proudly,
and **** does it look exquisite on me.
