Big Sis to Lil Sis

Be careful what you pick up
what traits you copy and
what habits you adopt;
It’s never easy to shed the
old self and it takes even longer
for people to accept the new self.
Be careful what you say.
Think it through a hundred times or
more if it needs to be said.
Words expose your true character
and what you say cannot be taken back.  
What you say has the power to
build up as well as tear down
another;what you say has the
power to make you unclean.

At times silence is best kept.
Exercise wisdom in all things
Wisdom comes through experiences.
No one can gain it for you
It is the good that you take from
experiences both good and bad that
is the building block of wisdom…
Not the wisdom preached by this
world, but the wisdom which comes
through knowing one’s self.

Practice self control. The small step
you take today in this direction will make
a huge impact tomorrow. Discipline is key
to growth while indiscipline leads to
stagnation.
Know that you are who you think you are
and that no one on this earth has the power
to tell you who/what you are. The moment
you agree to someone’s summation of you
is the moment YOU cease to exist.
Never allow yourself to feel comfortable
at point zero. Point zero is the lowest place;
where you have many regrets, you are angry
all the time, you can’t accomplish what you
need to and everyone is to be blamed except
YOU.
Believe that you can do anything you set
your mind to…belief fueled by fervent action
can move mountains. Never let an obstacle
get you down, keep at it until you’re there.
Patience is a key that can unlock many doors.
Finally, seek guidance in all that you
do,from the only one who knows all
that you don’t. Seek His face in everything,
keep your eyes continually on Him
and he will lead you in the way you must go
Trust in God always.

Taken

A blessing given, a privilege taken... What would you have grown up to be? Who can say? You never lived long enough   To swim across the river like the bigger boys,   To climb mango trees, hunt for ‘swims’,   Suck cocoa seeds all day in the summer,   Collect bird egg, go to market on your own.   You never lived to learn how to play an instrument Maybe the drums or the guitar Or maybe the piano, the trombone They can never tell the tale of how you studied hard   For the GSAT or maybe the CXC, CAPE, SAT, GRE... Or even how you never loved the books but could sing, Dance, draw, cook, paint, fix tings good. Ever describe that look on your face when You get your first job, purchase your first car,   Start your own business, experience loss, bounce back ‘Check you first catty’, marry her Gracefully receive a position of leadership Walk into your own house, hold your first child in your hands. Who, what, and how can they ever explain why y...

The Unchanging One

In awe of you I stand, examining your plan for this life and the next, but all the world’s a mess My vision is at best clouded and all around me shrouded by the darkness that unfolds in the most unlikely of places I see it on those faces Once filled with your joy and peace Now they’re longing for release From the sickness and disease in life See how they struggle with the strife that seeks to pull them under Lord sometimes I wonder, when will it all end? But until then Until the answer comes When at last the battle’s done My gaze will remain transfixed Never flailing, forever remaining with you The Unchanging One. ~Live Life, Love God, One Enkounter at a Time~

The Story Behind-'Cherish the Love'

Ok...here's the story behind this event. I have two blogs that are my pride and joy that I like to experiment with, one can be traced back to me and the other is fairly anonymous (innocent stuff:). So I was doing some updates and checking out the stats, tweeting and all of that when I stumbled across #februarywish as a group/topic/search trending worldwide on twitter! Anyway, not surprisingly, most of the persons on there were throwing a pity party online and I could so relate. Bah Humbug! Last year that was my position. I even wore full Black (was going for the Mortisha Adams look) to the Pre-Valentine's Dinner I attended and was sour most of the time to say the least. Mid-way through the dinner and even during my 'on-stage performance', I just wanted to go home, not even company in misery could cure this case. You see the thing with Valentine's day is that there is no fooling yourself...you can't ignore it (unless of course, you are half robot). It is just...
