Dear, Sweet Soul

Though, I try so hard to explain...
My words, they Just never seem to to properly arrange.

They're never right, they never seem to be enough...

I can only pray that the life I lead shows you.
What incredulous beauty has been created with His love!

There's more joy and hope than imaginable here.
It's not just a story; no, it's so much more than a fairy tale.

There's peace, there's happiness, there's a deliverance that is real.
This place, this thing, this love... This is something you can feel.

There's so much to learn, so many beautiful things to see. There's literally an entire other world... It's here now, it's just waiting for you and me.

It's more than you or I alone, could comprehend... It's something that comes only when you decide,
maybe it's okay to lose your head.

Because, losing your mind a little, might just be the thing to do...
Believing in something unreal, just might possibly lead you to an entirely new you.

Choosing to see more, feel more and love more... These are difficult things, I know.
But, choosing to trust more.... This truly is the way you open the door.

Choosing to trust the One who created everything.... Believing that He sees you, He hears you, He Cares for you...

This is how your mind finds peace enough to find the way life is meant to be.

Falling for a love that is greater than any felt by you or me; doing whatever it takes to learn more about it....

This is the way the blessings come. This is the only way he'll be definite to show you His love.

His power. His peace. His Holy Ghost....
until you find it yourself.... You'll never really see.
How much beauty there is in this world!
Without Him, you just simply couldn't know.

That One Special Chick Over There...

Who's that girl? The one with the pencil and the pad... Who's the one who sits so silently and shyly, but with such vigor, scribbles some of the most detailed pieces of artwork your eyes might ever behold? Who IS that girl?! Who's the one that nobody knows, but the one who knows more than anyone would ever think? Who's that different girl? The one who stands out by sitting back...who is that girl? Why is she so special? She's special because nobody really knows the true her. And, she's okay with that. Because, she has a side to her that will forever be her own. She will never fall prey to peer pressure and certain temptation, not because she thinks of herself to be higher or better than anyone else...but, because God has blessed her to be humble. He's blessed her with the ability to grow incredibly, just by watching others struggle...He's blessed her with silent wisdom that will someday turn her into something more incredible than she'll ever know. I envy those girls...the ones who have so much talent...but, never choose to flaunt it. Instead, she uses those gifts as outlets for her own emotion, and as tools to grow as a person. God, bless those girls who are different. Thank you for making them so easy to respect. Please, please, my God...give them strength in every moment of loneliness. And, please....let them know how truly blessed they are not to ever have to be weighted down by others. Lord, give them the wisdom to use their ab normalcy as an opportunity to grow in a relationship with you that is deeper than many of us could imagine. And, God...make me be like these girls.

Half a Tangerine and Some Rice Snacks

Uno, DOS, tres, quatro....  Shamalamma ding dong. I'm here, you're there, He's everywhere. Nothing matters! Words don't matter, sentences don't matter, what comes of me or this doesn't matter....as long as it exists. Who is here? Is anybody? Does it matter? No. all that matters is that I exist in this magnificently beautiful world. All that matters is that I see what I'm seeing and live what I'm living. As long as I bring pen to papaer, im in God's will. As long as I disregard you, and I disregard fear, everything will be okay. As long as I keep  comfortable in my own mind, nothing in this big world matters. I wanna be where you are. I wanna see what you see, how you see, and why you see it that way. I wanna live above the clouds, I wanna walk on raindrops as they wait to be dropped from the sky. I wanna lose everything, so that everything can be mine. I don't wanna be anything, I just want to truly exist. To exist where it matters...where it counts. This life if not worth living, if I have to live with limitations on my mind! If I can't be free from myself, I am prisoner to every single person in this world. If I'm not free in my mind, I am not free anywhere. There's so many details we miss every day. So many colorful molecules that surround us, creating beauty beyond description, that we never even see! We never even look at them. It's not our own fault, but, st the same time,  it is. Our lives are so limited  to our human experiences. Our brains are literally kept caged! They don't even know, so they're never striving for freedom or serenity. So many times, we think we know peace, we think we see beauty, experience serenity, and feel love. But, without freedom and depth of the.mind, we understand less of any of it than the children. Really, I envy the minds of the little ones. Such innocent freedom to think and see whatever they want. To believe in so much, and be amazed by every tiny creature God created, and to notice every detail! That's the way of them, and the way I want for me. I don't want to ever see with old eyes....wise eyes someday may be okay. But, I pray never to be done seeing anything. I want to see everything the way my God does with the true beauty he lied inside of it. Everything...everything, everyone, all of it, I want to see. Trueness, I want to see the reality for myself... All day errday! :)
