Expectations Lost.

God's help., Life's losses., Lost expectations, Nothing stays., Poetry by Yu/stan/kema., truth

 

Life is filled with ups and downs,

And many dangerous turn-a-rounds:

Sorrow that can break your heart,

And pain that tears your soul apart.

 

When you think you know the truth,

And search for dreams from lost youth,

Life comes and takes it all away

And leaves the lesson, “Nothing stays.”

 

You go through Life with wounded pride,

While something good in you has died.

How can you live when hope is gone?

Ask God to help you carry on.

Inequality.

Inequality, justice, Poetry by Yu/stan/kema., respect, Rise up, truth, women

Women watch men                                             

with unlimited power

make promises to those,

who have waited for years

for justice to finally

lift its battered head.

 

They waited for fairness,

an equal opportunity

to speak their truth,

and get the respect

they have earned

through patience and

pure determination.

 

They believed in

the integrity and

principles of

this country,

and its ability

to rise above

pettiness and

the need to win.

 

So they watched,

And they learned:  

Time could not erase

ingrained prejudices,

the need for men

to shame those

who waited to see

justice done.

 

They learned: 

it is up to

them to rise

as an army

And fight for

the right

To be heard,

and finally believed.

 

March with us,

come and save

your friends

and daughters

from society’s

need to keep

women silent

and afraid.

A Message For This Nation.

The world has changed

since I was a young girl

growing up in America.

Rules and regulations meant

we expected others to act

and talk with civility.

 

There were lines

no one dared to cross,

because we knew

those rules were the glue

that held us fast to one another

with a common purpose.

 

It took hard-earned respect

from each of us

to build a community

that believed in

the very best

of our humanity.

 

My heart yearns for the years

that seem lost forever:

A world where facts

were based on truth, 

and the rule of law

 was made for all.

 

Life was simple then.

We watched the seasons

come and go,

and we believed

that good would

triumph over evil.

 

I am not ready

to accept a world

filled with such

chaos and hate,

where people refuse

to relate with one another.

 

Let us work together

To heal this broken world,

so once again we can

find serenity,

and peace within

Our Country.

Darkness and light

are both intertwined

among the threads

of my life’s fabric.

 

Found on Pinterest on 12-17-16. Stephen Hayward. Stars

Love and fear

are found at

the intersection of

commitments I make.

 

Beauty and truth

are found when I

contemplate my desire

for what is good.

 

Respect and faith

are a part of

any relationship

where trust endures.

 

Life and death

are journeys I

must endure

to embrace eternity.

I Sing A Song Of Dreams.

One nation coming together

To protect the rights of all.

One nation working as one

To ensure freedom and dignity

For every man, woman, and child.

I Sing A Song Of Truth.

Each individual finding his own

Inner beauty inside himself.

Each person telling another

His story, his thoughts, his feelings

And finding true acceptance.

I Sing A Song Of Love.

All men reaching out to heal

And protect those around them.

Each one making it a priority to

Meet the needs of each man,

Woman, and child before him.

I Sing A Song Of Joy.

All people taking the time to

Notice and appreciate their blessings.

Each person seeing the love of God

In every face, tree, and bird

And taking the time to thank Him.

Found on Pinterest on 7-28-15.

I Sing A Song Of Faith.

 All kinds of religions kneeling down

 To honor and give voice against evil.

  All people willing to accept

  And embrace each man’s right

  To worship God as he sees fit.

I Sing a Song Of Friendship.

 Each man, woman, and child finding

Someone they can rely on and trust in.

 Each one gaining strength and

 Support from others to become

 All God wants them to be.

I Sing A Song Of Giving.

 People reaching out to give

 Joy in the lives of others.

 People seeking to renew

 And heal the brokenhearted

 And those who have lost hope.

I Sing A Song Of Life.

 Each man, woman, and child enjoying

 The wonders all around them.

 Each one finding a reason for living,

 A friend worth loving, hope to sustain them,

 And a strong faith to uphold them.

There’s beauty in the lovely thought

That she will be my friend.

Someone to trust and cherish, too,

On whom I can depend.

A friend who knows right from wrong,

And likes me for myself. 

A friend who digs inside  my mind

To cultivate its wealth.

A friend who raises me above

The tears of yesterday

And never fails to let me know 

“There’s hope in just today.”

A friend who tells me what she thinks

And seeks to tell the truth.

Who spurs me toward much brighter goals

That lie within my youth.

A friend to love and honor still

No matter if the sky

Be filled with darkness and with clouds

Because I’m doubting why.

A friend who means a great deal more

Than what I can express.

She shows me  deep respect and care,

With heart-felt tenderness.

There’s beauty in the lovely thought

She’ll always be my friend.

Someone to trust and cherish, too,

On whom I can depend.

When The Heart, Mind, and Soul Are In Conflict.

It is never easy making important decisions that will affect one’s life. The heart is the place where love dwells. It can have an extremely powerful influence on the decisions we make in the future. Love is a positive emotion and throughout history we have told ourselves that love can conquer all things, and can overcome any obstacles. Our experiences  teach us the power of love can do many things, but sometimes circumstances exist that are beyond what we can overcome. The mind is the seat of wisdom and truth. Most of us love truth and we would rather hear the reality of what actually is instead of believing a lie. The problem is, love feels good. It can lift us up. It can convince us that we are powerful.  Sometimes love blinds us to the truth.

That is why God made the soul and made it more powerful. It trump’s the heart and the mind.. It is the seat of our value system and houses the ethics and morals we hold dear. The heart and the mind communicate with the soul, but ultimately, the soul needs to have the final say. The soul is what keeps us on the right path. The soul drives us to be the best we can possibly be, and the soul cherishes beauty, wisdom, truth, and love. The soul connects us to God. When we make a good decision, our soul experiences a knowing. Love will try to influence the decision-making process. The mind also tries to convince the soul by using logic and reason. We have to allow our soul to guide us. When we do not, things often do not go as planned.
