For Granted

poetry, , , , , , , , , ,

In the quiet hum of everyday

We walk paths together, yet apart

Forgetting to say the words that stay

Lingering in the chambers of the heart

We assume tomorrow’s sun will rise

Illuminating the same shared space

Neglecting the gift before our eyes

The warmth of a smile, a gentle embrace

But time is a thief in silent shoes

Stealing moments, we thought we’d keep

Leaving us with memories to muse

And hearts that suddenly learn to weep

Let’s cherish each second, speak love aloud

In the end, that’s all that’s allowed

-For Granted-

Blessings and Love

Social Media II

Prompts, thoughts, , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Do you think that social media hurts or ruin relationships?

Do you think that social media has taken over some people’s lives?

I do not think so. I think it is the person who is being irresponsible on social media, not just social media itself. I have been hearing for a few years now that people blame social media for some of their relationship problems, and sometimes, I do not understand it. I feel like those types of people should just stay off it if it will help their relationship.

For the second question, I do believe that social media has taken over some people’s lives. Everything that they do goes on social media, they always feel the need to get attention, and advice from people on these apps. I also feel like some people expose themselves and their families. Getting advice, I don’t feel that is a big deal, but people who put all their business out there I feel it is too much. Some things should be kept off the internet. I do feel social media nowadays is a big deal to some people, and I know some people make their money that way, so I cannot knock what social media provides for some. I just think it is an overload. People will do anything for attention and money.

These are just my opinions. How do you feel about both questions?

Calmness 

poetry, , , , , , , , , , , ,

Amidst the chaos of the world so wide 

There lies a place where peace resides 

A calmness that can’t be denied 

A feeling that beautifully abides 

With each breath, the mind is eased 

As worries and fears are released 

And the soul is finally appeased 

The stillness that has increased 

In this serene and tranquil state 

There is no room for hate or debate 

Only love, joy, and pure grace 

That fills every moment and space 

I seek this inner peace 

And let the worries and troubles cease 

For in the calmness, I find release 

And a world that is filled with ease 

Blessings and Love!

Forgetting/Forgiving

Forgetting/Forgiving

I know you’re supposed to forgive people and move on with life. Yeah, that is hard to do, well for me it is. Why? Because all I think about is how a person did me wrong or harmed me, and then I do not know why they did it. I am left feeling lost and confused. I have a hard time forgetting the past and forgiving those in my past; I mean all of it, all the bad, and that is probably my biggest problem. I feel like I still live in the past, and that is not cool. I try to forget about it, but pain and anger will not let me, I do not know why I am still this way, I try to not think about stuff. This is something I am working on I need to let it all go and really move on with my life. Try not to seek revenge and be happy with my life. Try to forgive those who have brought harm my way.

I heard that by forgiving a person you help yourself. You can release the emotions it can bring by holding on to it, and it helps with built-up anger. You are not doing any good by holding on to the hurt. I pray that I can forgive people because this feeling of holding on or wanting to hurt back is not good. I am learning day by day how to forgive. Have you felt like you could not forgive someone? Was it hard to forgive? What do you think?

Blessings and Love!

Morning Ritual

Daily writing prompt
What are your morning rituals? What does the first hour of your day look like?
View all responses

When I wake up in the morning, I take care of my hygiene. I will journal till it is time to get my kids up for school. Some days make my kids breakfast if they want it. Sometimes they like to take nutrient grain bars or pop tarts, something on the go. I will get that done while making sure they are getting ready for school and always watching the time to make sure they make their school bus. After they are off to school, I make my cup of coffee, and some days, by this time, it is cup number 2, and then I will write, blog, and journal with some music playing and relaxing till it’s time for work. Then, of course, it is time to work! That’s it!

How about you? What is your morning ritual?

Have a good one

Blessings and Love!

Love Self! 

poetry, , , , , , , , , ,

I look into the mirror, and what do I see? 

A person staring back who’s always been there for me.

Through all the ups and downs, the good times and the bad 

I’ve always been my own true friend, the one I’ve always had 

I used to criticize and pick apart my every flaw

But now, I choose to love myself, and that’s the key to it all

I am worthy of respect, of kindness, and of love

And I won’t let anyone convince me otherwise, not now or ever 

I will stand up tall, with confidence and pride

I love myself for who I am and never try to hide. 

I will embrace my flaws and all and cherish every part

For I am unique and special, and that’s what sets me apart

Blessings and Love!

Not What You Want.

Poems, poetry, , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

In the depths of my heart, I know it’s true

That what I offer is not enough for you

I’m not the one who can fulfill your needs

And I fear my love will only cause you to bleed

I want to be the one who makes you smile

But it seems that I fall short by a mile

My flaws and faults are too much to bear

And I can’t escape this feeling of despair

I wish that I could be the perfect one

To hold you close until the setting sun

But my love is not enough to make you stay

And I am left to face another lonely day

Perhaps one day I’ll find the strength to see

That I deserve a love that’s meant to be

Until then, I’ll try to learn and grow

And pray that the pain inside will soon let go.

The sad truth is, I am not what you want….

-Not What You Want.-

When you feel the weight of the world, of life. 

Pressure 

Trying to make everyone around you happy. 

Pressure 

Trying to make yourself happy. 

Pressure 

Having those bad days, struggling 

Pressure 

The drama and let downs. 

To be perfect 

Pressure 

Dealing with people who are toxic to you.

Heaviness 

Too much weight 

It is all around. 

Damn the pressure.

Stormy Nights!

poetry, thoughts, , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Stormy Nights

Dark, cold, raining

Storm is raging

Candles lit, scene is set

Stormy Nights

Brings together a romance

As the sound of the rain

Is the music for us

Candles lit with the scent of

Warm vanilla and caramel

As the thunder roar, with specks of lighting

Storm is raging

Us no care in the world, BUT each other

Stormy Nights

Brings souls together

Dancing and laughing

A good night indeed

Candles lit with the shadows of

Our bodies

Such a Stormy Night

Oh, one to remember

As we get lost in romance

Let

The rain keep falling

Thunder keep roaring

It’s a Stormy Night

Us

Undercovers!

-Stormy Nights-

Blessings and Love!
