Dreams
Do not give up on your dreams,
Let them be the reason you wake up everyday,
Give them life by working towards them,
And give them a chance of coming alive by daring.

Temptation
It gives us the yearning for something we know isn't right,
The force is so strong that it gives us instant excuses as to why we should give in to it,
Falling into temptation isn't necessarily weakness,
Its tolerance.

#BEAUTY ^_^
Beauty is empathy,
Its love,
Its a heart that cares,
Its the eyes that see beyond the appearance,
Its the lips that speak peace and laughter and love,
Its the body that feels the beat of good music,
Its simply beauty.

The best revenge,
Is happiness and success
Be happy on your pursuit of success,
Your enemies will be infuriated but still won't harm you because you're not alone.

New day
Its a new day!
Be happy
You've gotten a brand new chance,
Not everyone has woken up to see this day,
Don't waste your life,
Use it,
Even in the comfort of your bed or couch you can still use your life even through your phone
You can make a person smile.

#Curiosity indeed
I was told to try it out,
That everyone was doing it,
That it was awesome and the sweetest thing ever,
They told me the risks behind it were a myth,
I did it!
My very first time,
Used no protection,
Was drunk and couldn't recall how it even felt,
What a waste,
It was supposed to be awesome,
But it wasn't,
I decided to think for myself
And change my ways after that day,
I went for ***/AIDS testing,
Lo and behold,I was given a second chance,
I was negative,
Though I'm not so sure yet,it could be that I tested during the window period!
PS:Nothing of that sort happened to me,just a thought..not a true story.

There comes time in life when we feel hopeless,when we fall for someone and we think that persons too good for us,or when we dream a dream and think its too good to ever be true,why can't we reason that we also deserve the best?as hard as it is to change our mindsets we really should work on them.

May your name be glorified,
Forever and ever through Christ

Amen.

\_\_\_\ _Reflection
You're perfect the way you are!
You're someones missing puzzle piece,
And a jigsaw puzzle piece as we know is specific,
It is the way it is because its meant to be that way to fit perfectly to complete the picture,
Don't let words bring you down,
I bet people would take back some of the words they've said about you but they just can't
Because words can't be reversed,
Listen,you're incredible.
One of a kind,
Don't try to change what you can't change because if you can't change it;its simply telling you its meant to be there.
Wouldn't you love to fit perfectly on the part you're supposed to be?
If yes,let yourself be..
Something for someone who must know that he or she is perfect,I'm referring to physical perfection..yes we're perfect the way we are.if we can't change it,guess what?its here to stay and its high time we accepted it.

Why do you need...
Why do you need popularity when the most superior being;God knows you deeply and loves you greatly?
Why do you need to be the topic of peoples conversations when God already knows what you're all about?
Why do you need to feel ****** perfect when your creator being the greatest artist makes no mistakes?just know you are perfect the way you are!
Why do you need to waste your efforts trying to get the attention of the whole world when He's always listening to your souls cries?
Why do you need to be accepted by everyone when He loves you the way you are and has placed the people right in your life who will love you for you?
Why do you need all the worlds wealth when at some point you'll leave it all behind,
Why do you need to read this?because you were supposed to..

What's life all about?
Impressing the whole world?
Just so I can be more likeable?
Be everyones "yes man",
Because noone wants to hear the truth?
No need for that

;;;@$#
If you wear make up to filter your appearance,
Realise that,that won't change how you feel about yourself deep down,
Accept what you perceive as flaws and embrace them,afterall with our human eyes we all find faults on our bodies,
Don't waste your efforts trying to impress people who aren't there to build you or encourage you,
Don't waste efforts to impress people who think your natural look *****,
Surround yourself with true love and positivity.

You're wonderfully beautiful
But you don't know
Because you can't see what's inside your soul,
And you're scared of whom you might find within,
Perhaps someone who could turn to be too great for you to handle,
Well that's not the case,open up to yourself,search your soul,find your dream and chase it.

Beauty hurts
When you begin
To strive to be the image
Society would refer to as perfect
Then beauty will hurt..
Jun 2015 · 302
#B_E_A_U_T_Y
If my body isn't what society labels as "ideal",
It wouldn't affect me anymore because society is just society,
And we're all part of society,
Filled with opinions,
Which are usually dogmatic!
What matters is how I choose to view myself,
I may not be the so called"every guys dream"
But hey,there's so much more to live for than "perfection" to impress a crowd which actually doesn't even care,
Its all about gossip and headlines these days,
But they all fade within hours,
Even when I become what society has termed as"ideal" or "perfect",
I'd still struggle when I leave the public scene if I haven't fully accepted and loved the true me,the inner me.

As much as the truth hurts,
Denial hurts more,
The truth relieves you of unnecessary anxiety,
While denial actually gives you unnecessary anxiety,
Accept truth,let denial go.

When you think about changing the world,
Remember to start with yourself,
Its the little things you do that accumulate to big things,
Be the change you wish to see.
Not everyone will get to read books but lots of people will definitely get to see you and get inspired.
Actions afterall speak louder than words.
That's why silence is the loudest shout.

Procrastination is the biggest enemy of progress,
Negativity is the biggest of happiness,
Laziness must be the biggest enemy of success,
Let's do things right away,
Be positive,
Be hard working.

Think about it
Its very funny to think life would actually start with a ball of fire,how ridiculous!
There's a creator,
That's why the earths creations are orderly,
If evolution was the answer for the beginning of life,
I bet humans would have had wings by now or even scales to prove our constant change due to evolution,
But the view of a Great creator,
Its simple and very evident,people are still people,animals are still animals,
Everything was made as it is,
Have you ever wondered why plants haven't evolved,yet?
Or why dogs are still dogs and birds still birds?
Because they were meant to be what they are!not by evolution but by creation
Think about it,
Believe it or not.
And He loves you as He created you in His very own image.
Think about it.

#1 Beauty
Beauty is beyond the mirrors view,
Beauty defeats peoples opinions,because its more than that.
Beauty is learning to be satisfied with self and not comparing yourself to others,
Beauty is loving and respecting yourself,
Beauty is a loving heart,
Beauty is a beautiful soul..

A father
Every little girls first love,
Every little boys best hero,
Fatherhood takes effort,strength and lots of courage,
Others have proved to be too weak for the title,
But for those who have taken up that position and embraced it,
I say congratulations!
You the man!
Stay blessed.

Blaming others only wastes time and energy.

Clarity
Opening the eyes of your heart,
Seeing things as they are supposed to be,
Being clear about what you want in life,
Setting goals,
Running after them,
Creating deadlines but not giving up if things don't work as planned..
Knowing that life won't always give you what you want,
And realising that whatever life throws at you,you can handle because life itself is enough hope..

Have your own opinion,
Don't let people think for you.
Don't follow public opinion if you know deep down your heart that its not the right thing,
Be an individual,
Guard your morals,beliefs and principles and respect them because that's you.

Do not regret your mistakes,
Because if you regret them,
You won't have the ability to clearly see why they happened,
And to learn from them..

Being beautiful isn't about dating the most guys,
Or having the most trendy outfits,
Respect itself is beauty,
Self acceptance is beauty
You're priceless!
Don't cheapen yourself by giving in to every guys ***** desires over you,
Noone can treat you like a queen if you don't see and present yourself as one,
Define who you are,
And have self respect and count yourself worthy of true respect.

Dear Lord,
Forgive me for all my sins those I commit knowingly and those I commit unknowingly
Lead me in your paths,
Heal me of my illnesses,including the prevailing ones,
Oh Lord deliver me from evil,
Protect me throughout this day
Be with my friends and my family,
And everyone around the globe,
Lord heal the sick,let your grace shine on them,
Through Christs name I pray,amen

A dark cold night,
I lay down to think.
My thoughts wander off to places they've never been,
And I fail to trace them back,
Then others just fall back on my mind,
And remind me that I'm mortal,
And quite hopeless without faith,
I try to brush off those thoughts because I want to feel incharge of myself,
But I eventually get convinced that I'm not.

It doesn't matter if I never become famous,
My deepest desire is to be an asset to the world,
Even when my experiments on life may turn out disastrous,
I don't regret them because its from them that I gain knowledge,through thorough thinking and search for answers.

No matter how much you love someones physical feature(s),don't let that block your view of the persons inner being,don't let that, takeover the reasons for your feelings,
Physical things usually don't last long,
So learn the heart and love it more.

Stars never struggle to shine,
Consider yourself more valuable than them,
And realise that you don't have to struggle to succeed,
Don't take challenges as struggles,take them as opportunities to strengthen your mind,
And also as ways to improve yourself,
Taking challenges as struggles,will only wear you out and make you feel inferior to them..
So its not a struggle its a challenge,meaning;you can win at it!

At the beginning sin may taste so sweet,
It could be shocking how it ends up disastrous,
Carrying it out may feel like bravery,
Though the end result leaves you feeling cowardly,

LIFE
Life is so precious that it has no price,
Value it,
Keep it safely,
Not that you shouldn't take risks but be realistic,
Once it slips out of you,
You're gone forever,
Don't take it for granted,use it while you still have it.
Use it to add value that will live on even when you're gone.
Live a life of fulfillment,
Follow your heart,
Run after your dreams and capture them,
Nothing should stop you because you only have one life to live with choice,
Choose well
Live well..
Oh you can actually read it from the bottom as well.
