[FOOD • 4 • THOUGHT]

"Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it."

-Groucho Marx

FEAR NOT



Isaiah 43:1-2

But now, this is what the LORD says—
he who created you, O Jacob,
he who formed you, O Israel:
"Fear not, for I have redeemed you;
I have summoned you by name; you are mine.
When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you.
When you walk through the fire,
you will not be burned;
the flames will not set you ablaze.

*An amazing promise from the Lord. That which is HIS will ALWAYS be safe, always be loved, always be HIS...FEAR NOT. These verses have brought me so many blessing and have continuously reminded me to keep my head lifted when I'm trudging through the mire. I hope this post will help remind any of you who are struggling to FEAR NOT. Be blessed loves...

Love's Struggle

Hello loves!!! I decided it was about time that I shared another one of my poems with you all. This poem was written a long long time ago and is full of rugged and furious emotion. I love reflecting on old thoughts through poetry. Soooo...have a read and let me know what you think.



Love's Struggle

the past rips through my mind
leaving me blind to this pure love in front of my eyes.
head hurting I lash out continuously
seeing my future fade into the night, this night.

she talks to me telling me I'm losing him
my life grim with the probability of destroying we
contemplating all these words her words
the voice fades into silence as I type my minds reality

he's gone now, taking his light
I'm stupid right? and now its clear that my cheer dies
the lamp on the desk turns on and I wonder
the choices are two...stay and lose...or go, go and find him

tomorrow promises only some
it will be done and then home, proven or unhappily failed
I feel bolted to this spot by my pride
determination seeming unheard to my stubborn mind

arm over my forehead rest
my hand tests the fabric of my pillow frantically
he's back....his choice to make are two
to finish this he started or rip apart the chance with you

my eyes, they close heavy laden
aggravated I sit up frustrated on fetching my love
and then with one word.
he decidedly broke all, making the choice.

my anger boils over to tears
angst sears through my body. I leave...stupid stupid man
why did you decided so rashly
songs play my emotions into torment as a sit to listen

inevitably I must return
no concern seems to plague his mind, over it must be
Sauntering forward I stop
the handle, cold in hand I turn, open, release....and step in

Legacy...What Will Yours Be?

Have you ever stopped to think about what your individual purpose is? What is it you would like to tell people your legacy is? I know I have...in fact, it's something I think about every day. I truly believe that we all want, in some way, to know and find our purpose in life...our reason for being. Day after mundane day most of us interact in the same ole routines, same schedules, same routes...but there's that one thing, that one amazing dream we have that motivates us to get out of bed in the morning...that urges us to move head and keep striving for all that we've wished, hoped, and prayed for. The crazy thing is we are not alone in our daily strive toward being what we've dreamed..and yet for many...a search for purpose is a difficult one.



Just a little food for thought...think about it & share you thoughts if you feel comfortable





I hope this post is finding you blessed loves,

Above The Clouds...




"For I know the plans I have for u," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper u & not to harm u, plans to give u hope & a future." Jeremiah 29:11





This feeling is like I'm soaring ABOVE THE CLOUDS!! Today has been an amazing day!! I'm moving closer to my destiny everyday. I have amazing people in my life that encourage me to be the best person I can be, to chase my dreams, to live life to the fullest and I have the Lord to thank for that.

Life is NOT easy...but the battles of life make the victories so much more triumphant. For me, I know that nothing can truly harm me...nothing can truly stop me...nothing can break me down to the point where I can no longer get up, because I have an AMAZING GOD who loves me, who has plans for me, who gives me the means to prosper, hope and have a future. Every morning I wake up in awe of the fact that I am able to see another day. I pray that for all you too my lovely readers.

Below are just a few of the people who God has blessed me with!!










I hope this post finds you blessed and deliriously happy!!

Roots of Happiness...



TRUTH...

CONFIDENCE...

“Unless your heart, your soul, and your whole being are behind every decision you make, the words from your mouth will be empty, and each action will be meaningless. Truth and confidence are the roots of happiness.”

The Music Of My Soul...

"Music isn't just learning notes and playing them, You learn notes to play to the music of your soul"



"Music is my refuge"



"Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life."



As all of you who regularly read my blog know, I am enamoured by music. Music flows through my like my life's blood...it sustains my hearts voice...it makes the colors of life brighter. So, because of this love I have for music I've decided to share with you some of the songs that never cease to speak to my life at every moment.

ENJOY :)


Song #1 - I Am Blessed by Rachel Lampa

"I am blessed,I am blessed,From when I rise up in the morning,'Till I lay my head to rest and I feel you near me, you sooth me when I'm weary."

"You've given me joy. You've given me love. You give me strength when I want to give up. You came from heaven to rescue my soul. You are the reason I know...I know."





Song #2 Wings of Forgiveness - India Arie

"Had to go across the water just to find what was here in my heart all along. Spend so much time trying to be right that I was dead wrong."

"I've searched for romance, flowers and affection & what I found is a lesson of what love really is. Found the game of love is not about how much you can take,in fact authentic love is about how much you can give."





Song #3 - I Turn To You - Christina Aguilera

"When I lose the will to win, I just reach for you and I can reach the sky again. I can do anything cause your love is so amazing, cause your love inspires me."

"When my world is going crazy you can turn it all around. And when I'm down you're there pushing me to the top. You're always there giving me all you've got"





Song #4 What A Wonderful World - Louis Armstrong

"I see skies of blue, and clouds of white, the bright blessed day, dark sacred night. And I think to myself, What a wonderful world."

"The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky are also on the faces of people going by."





Song #5 Till I Collapse - Eminem

"Cause sometimes you feel tired, feel weak, and when you feel weak, you feel like you wanna just give up. But you gotta search within you, you gotta find that inner strength and just pull that s**t out of you and get that motivation to not give up
and not be a quitter, no matter how bad you wanna just fall flat on your face and collapse"

"I will not fall, I will stand tall, feels like no one could beat me."





Song #6 It's My Life - Bon Jovi

"It's my life. It's now or never. I ain't gonna live forever. I just want to live while I'm alive."

"Better stand tall when they're calling you out. Don't bend, don't break, baby, don't back down."





Song #7 Reflections - Christina Aguilera

"Who is that girl I see, staring straight back at me? When will my reflection show who I am inside?"

"There's a heart that must be free to fly. That burns with a need to know the reason why."





Song #8 Can't Take That Away - Mariah Carey

"But I refuse to falter in what I believe or lose faith in my dreams."

"Cause there's, There's a light in me that shines brightly, They can try, but they can't take that away from me."






Song #9 Imagine - John Lenon performed by David Archuleta

"You may say Im a dreamer, but Im not the only one. I hope someday you will join us and the world will be as one."

"Imagine all the people living for today..."





Song #10 His Eye Is On The Sparrow - Lauryn Hill & Tanya Blount

Why should I feel discouraged? Why should the shadows come? Why should my heart feel lonely and long for heaven and home? When Jesus is my portion, a constant friend is he. His eye is on the sparrow and I know he watches over me."

"I sing because Im happy. I sing because I'm free."





These are just a few of the songs that really speak to my heart and seem to be right for me at all moments of my life...I might do a followup post later. I hope you enjoyed the songs, I have a very eclectic taste in music. Thanks for stopping by again loves...Have a blessed night
