Squeezed by society,
But not getting crushed.
Morals tested and despised,
Not appreciated,but degraded.
Deeply perplexed by nowadays,
But not in despair.
Therefore do not lose heart.
Nor grow weary of doing good.

Always be hopeful of what's to come.

She's proud to be African,
She has no bleaching plan,
Her focus is on life,
She doesn't want to live in strife,
She works hard,
Her life isn't centered on finding a man to keep her,
She believes there's more to life;like chasing her dreams and inspiring lives,

Its not selfishness,
Its self recognition,
Self respect and self worth.
Loving yourself is the first step to loving someone else genuinely,
How can you love someone if you don't love yourself?you're the only person whose thoughts you know and if you can't love that person,how do you love the next person?besides you can't give what you don't have. Love yourself.Not to be selfish but to realise yourself and what you can offer.

Don't force things,life has a way of making things work. What's meant to be will be,whenever,wherever,however.

I give God the glory
For all my victory.
Because without God,its the end of my story.

The beauty of nature baffles me.,
So natural yet beautiful..
I mean isn't this a lesson enough about beauty?
Its sad how this synthetic and soon to be pathetic world of ours seems to portray natural as ugly,
God made me more important than the most beautiful flowers and natural scenaries,
So its automatic that my natural beauty beats them by far,.
Not that we shouldn't wear make up,
The lesson here is that we must acknowledge how beautiful our natural state is,
And love it.

It just came,
Noone saw it coming,
Maybe others did but they kept quiet because they were too scared to say it,
Its effects affect all,
It brings questions and worry,
It scares everyone,
Makes all think poverty is knocking at their doors,
It breeds hopelessness because the solution seems too far to be reached
And thinking of one isn't an easy task
but all will be just fine,
Time will surely pass it on to history.

Intelligence spiced with beauty,.
Integrity filled and peace loving
Self respecting,
Goodness is her duty,
Shes not to be taken for granted for she knows who she is,
Respect is not demanded,it comes naturally. She is a woman,a power woman

Perfection is an illusion,
All that seems perfect isn't as it seems,
Flaws flow through all perfection,
In humanity perfection is an illusion.

No weapon formed against me shall prosper,
Because He who protects me is the greatest,
And He puts to shame anything that tries to make my life miserable,
He allows trials to strengthen me but never to defeat me,
Nothing will frustrate my life for He is the greatest,
His joy is my strength,
His love my armour,
His favour my hope
No matter what the enemy plots,he can never succeed because my Protector is greater.

Priorities
Birth
Principles.
Changing your principles,
Without counter-checking your priorities,
Can cause a huge mess,
Very confusing one,
The two - principles and priorities.
Go hand in hand..
Your priorities detect your principles,your principles protect your priorities.

Be an individual,
Make your own choices,
Create your own beauty,
Don't let anyone determine who you are,
Do it for yourself.
Beauty is everywhere if you ask me,
But TRUE BEAUTY;the real deal,
The ideal kind,
Is not everywhere,
Its ignored,simply because its not easy to attain
True beauty is knowing who you are,
Defining yourself,accepting yourself and loving yourself.
Being loved by the whole world at the expense of your own dignity is NOTHING close to being beautiful.
Be who you really are,love yourself before you start searching for love,only then will you know by which standards to actually live.

Build an idea,
Organise your mess,
Recognise your strengths,
Elevate your soul searching,
Denature negative thoughts.
Only allow great ideas,
Mimic the best person you can be.

All things are possible perhaps including an ***/AIDS free generation?
Yeah I said perhaps; because,so far moral decay is at its peak,
So I wonder what chances the coming generation will have in eradicating ***/AIDS,
I mean we just do things without thinking of the upcoming people,
Young innocent children are infected and some of them aren't even told about it until they're too old;they end up living in denial hence messing up,
And everyone is affected..
What can we do??
Could love be of help?,
Maybe it can bind us enough to unite and do the right things selflessly thinking of the next person.

Loving and accepting yourself will eventually put you in a place where you won't doubt yourself anymore
When you're called "fat" but you love yourself and you think you're ****;that shouldn't crash you.
Stories of greatness aren't fairytales,its all blood,sweat and tears,then courage
Of course at times,you may feel you've lost but as long as you're breathing and willing to take further steps;victory awaits.
When you're called stupid but you know you aren't and your dreams are important,you go ahead;don't give up
Besides;"stupid" is just an opinion!
It all starts from your mind;
Beauty,victory,courage,love.

Happiness isn't found in alcohol,
Its not found in drugs,
Its not found in ***,
Its not found in anger,
Its not found in tantrums,
Neither is it found in bad moods,
Happiness is only found within,
Only you can decide to be happy,
It all begins from within you,
Its a choice,choose it!
Realise all the benefits of happiness;you live a healthier life,more energised and vibrant and more fulfilling,
The search for happiness elsewhere  apart from you inner being is infact in vain,.

The only time I get to really see and appreciate the beauty of the night sky is when there's a powercut and its dark all over,
That's when I appreciate the power of the moon,and beauty of the stars,
Indeed every dark time of life has something beautiful to it,
There's always something to illuminate it,you just have to look for it,.

Bold and beautifully painted,
Lovingly created,
Artistically put together,
Coloured with loving thoughts.
K**eenly complete.

Not all single people are sad,
And not all taken people are happy.
Life in general is what you make it
It doesn't matter how others see it,
If you're happy in your state;that's great,its your life afterall.
Crazy how to some ears single rings misery,
Meanwhile to others it rings yeppy!joy!
We view life differently,
We might aswell just respect all views anyways.

I have you wrapped around me,
My head,my body,my soul...
Not for anyone but for me,
You're special,
You're golden and rare,
Having you in mind is no easy dare,
But its worth it,
You're purity,
You're innocence,
You are cleanliness.
You are undefiled.
You're possible.

Each and everything happens for a reason,
God has each and every detail in place,
Whether in a good or bad season,
When you walk with him,you're walking the right pace..
Its beautiful how everything turns out to happen for the good of those who love God,
So in worrying we gain nothing,nothing,nothing.
But in trust we become bold,
And have nothing to lose,for in our minds he has it all under control,therefore we do not lose but gain everything.

                     Tiny hat
                My forefathers
            Humble beginnings
        I somewhat envy them bec

          And rules not trying to
          Copy others but living
          in utmost grace and si

          in those days,I respect

   Their intellect and wisdom,yes.

She holds for dear life to the ends of the sleeves in her hands,
Covering up lies that she wrote with a razor sharp pen,
And the sting of the blade is no match for the pain
Of the loneliness she's going through,
But we've all been there too.

Praise God we don't have to hide scars
They just strengthen our wounds, and they soften our hearts.
They remind us of where we have been, but not who we are
So praise God, praise God we don't have to hide scars

You can still see the mark on his hand where there once was a ring
He watched decades of history dissolve when she wanted to leave
And the hole that it left there inside of his chest
Is a canyon a thousand miles deep
We all know how that feels.

So praise God we don't have to hide scars
They just strengthen our wounds, and they soften our hearts.
They remind us of where we have been, but not who we are
So praise God, praise God we don't have to hide scars

There once was a King who so burdened with grief
Walked into death so that we could find peace
He rose up with scars on his hands and his feet
By them we are healed, by them we are healed.

So praise God we don't have to hide scars
Yeah we know His are covering ours

Praise God we don't have to hide scars
They just strengthen our wounds and they soften our hearts
They remind us of where we have been, but not who we are
So praise God, praise God
Oh His are covering ours
So Praise God we don't have to hide scars.

Thought it was the answer to my prayer,
I saw it,and started to like its short term effects but it faded.
Only then did I realise that it was just a mirage.
A reflection of my desire which I could see but not seize.
Indeed it was just a mirage..
The reflection of my miracle..how deep!
Maybe to test my reaction when I have it or to show me that there's something better.,
But it seemed so real,it was just a mirage though.

So many writings and descriptions of it,yet no satisfaction..
Verbally its undefined..
Its something to live out,
Its only true when lived.

Living is once on earth.
Live by your rules,
Don't hurt,don't hate.
Heal,love
Care but mind your own business.
Compare yourself to no one but yourself.

Pride hurts loved ones of the proud,
Pride kills love and patience,
Pride destroys harmony,
Pride irritates!
Pride,
Pride,
Pride,
Pride,
Oh pride;I wonder when "I'm sorry" became a tongue cutting statement that its become so hard to use,
Pride!you defend yourself even when you know you're clearly wrong,
Pride;I hate you so much,
But perhaps there's an element of you in me because I'm only human,
Wish I could scrub each and every inch of me in order to have nothing to do with you!

Patience is hope in waiting.
As we wait,we develop.
Waiting without anxiety,
And knowing that God has it all under control.
Patience is never in vain.
There's time for everything.
Yours too.

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.

One gift we take for granted is life,
And we only realise its short
When nearing the end.

She's  beautiful  in her own way,
She  smiles  even when she's having a bad day,
She can be  delicate  but she's still   strong ,
She's not  proud ,she admits her wrong,
Words don't bring her down,
She knows noone is worth turning her smile into a frown,
She doesn't look down on others,
She feels how it would be like to be one of their mothers,
She speaks her  mind ,
She believes in it there's wisdom someone could find.
She's a  hardworker ,
And she wouldn't ever want to be a heartbreaker,

But a heart mender she would be.
She can pray..
She's a woman,a great one.

Before you sleep tight,
Tell the person,who's usually the last on your mind before you sleep goodnight..
Wish him or her a beautiful nightmare,
In which life will be totally fair,
And let him or her know how much you care..

Created by perfection,
Not from without but with great intention,
Physically,you're flawless.
From your toes to your face,
Upto the longest strand of your hair,
Believing this may be a great dare,
But its true,
Its true that the flaws flow from within you,
Not your body,physique or biological make up but the mind,
And to this notion;most of us are blind.
Accepting and loving yourself the way you are,
Makes you shine flawlessly like a star.

PEOPLE PLEASER..
Is that a way of life to take up??
Living your life on a fellow humans terms??
Dearest people pleaser,you may think its love you're showing when in the actual sense its slavery..
Choose your path and live on your own terms.
The people you try to please wont even be there to regret with you the day you'll leave this earth.
We humans are never satisfied so trying to please humanity by all means will never satisfy,
People pleasing only ends up in losing self,self dignity and self respect,self love and self trust.

I am a woman,beautiful and divine.
Living not to impress men but to live in preparation for eternity,beauty is within and out.
With integrity I choose to live my life,with respect,love and honor I choose to treat people.
I am a beautiful soul,
Make up doesn't make me better,my mind developing makes me better. To live is to accept the fact that you're not here to stay but to prepare for eternity.

Beauty is real when it starts with your mind,
Set your mind to accept what you see in the mirror,
To love and to embrace it,
Its you,
Its the only place in which you live,
Clean it up,
Take good care of it
Love it.

You
                     either
                   grow or
                 depreciate.

Provide,
Never wish to divide
The family,
They always want to see us live happily,
These are great people,
Who deserve so much respect,
In the bible,
Its only the commandment concerning them which contains a promise,so inspect
Yourself,are you honoring them as they deserve to be honoured?
Having them is a blessing,
Love them.

I'm referring to actual medicine -

They say the best medicine tastes bitter,
So you have to take it to get better,
How I wish the word was sweeter!!
As in "the best medicine tastes sweeter",,
So what happens is;the little pill,
Goes into my blood stream with great thrill,
Unlike me when taking it in ; with no zeal,
But we thank God
For the brains that create those precious pills of "gold".
