Forever Thankful

I am thankful for my blessings
My many life lessons
My prayer and mediation sessions
For they have shaped me
Made me
Molded me
Into the unique person you see

I am thankful for my journey
My chosen path
My many cries and laughs
For they have helped me grow
Each bump
Each stump along the way
Has prepared me for where I am today

I am thankful for my inner circle
My family
My friends
My relationships that never end
For they have helped me
Get up when I fall
Stand straight and tall
While supporting me thru it all

I am forever thankful…

My Soul Looks Back and Wonders

My soul looks back and wonders
How in the world I got over
Got over all of the hurt and pain
How I managed to stay sober and sane
Not giving into the demons who tried to steal my soul
And take the precious things that made me whole
My freedom to love … My peace of mind
My joy…My family… The reasons I grind
Grind so hard to make a way
Why I fall down on my knees and pray
For strength to make it thru the day
Offering each day all I have to give
So glad I made the choice to fight and live
Lord knows I have been way down under
So down…
My soul looks back and wonders

You Gonna Learn Today

News Flash:

Everybody ain’t always who they claim to be
They look in the mirror and don’t even recognize who they see
It has to be hard living a life of lies and shame
Having nothing good associated with your name
Constantly bringing drama and starting shit
Not knowing know when to just step back and quit
Mouth running like a faucet with a bad leak
Don’t know when to shut up or when to speak
Always in the beginning, middle or the end of some mess
Good for keeping stuff going and not letting it rest
One day you will be find yourself in something can’t handle
Caught on the wrong end of an ugly scandal
So go somewhere and sit yourself down
Before your business gets spread around town
You better stop messing with me because I don't play
As the saying goes “You gonna learn today”
