The Ending is The Beginning!

So happy it's all over! Finally some peace-of-mind and satisfaction in knowing that I don't have to face another day in a particular chaos. I don't have to stand in anxiety with my chest squeezing the life from my words as I run out of breath. That is sweet relief in itself and removes a heavy burden from my soul. I feel much better already. Oh God I'm so glad its over, because another day would have been crippling and another week would have been sheer death.
Death comes in small packages. It comes in the form of the simplest things we love and indulge in. It comes in the form of the things we cannot live without. Work, money, relationships and a host of other things. Misused or however unhealthy the form of our death, we engage it head on. In this case, my death only lasted for nine months. It has been the worst nine months of my life and I have been pushed to an all new level of tolerance. The self-discovery has been irreplaceable and mind altering. The ending of this nine month journey has started the beginning ofself-satisfaction that I made it through a storm. I survived the realism of our society and now I can tell it like it is. My ending has invoked my new project. Watch out world! The end is near...

Daily Devotion

"May 6,
'Humble Yourself'
Let this same attitude and purpose and [humble] mind be in you which was in Christ Jesus: [Let Him be your example in humility].
Philippians 2:5
Humility comes from brokenness; brokenness hurts so bad, but it 'hurts good.' Brokenness comes when we learn that we are not hotshots after all. Brokenness comes when we judge others, and then realize that we do the same things they do. Brokenness comes when we think we are going to step out and do something great, and then fall flat on our face because we forgot to stay plugged in to God.
Brokenness comes when we give our opinion, knowing that we are absolutely right to the point of arguing about it, and then find that we are wrong. Brokenness is good for us. Brokenness leads to humility, and humility precedes honor (see Proverbs 15:33)."

I Believe the Children

I believe that the children are our future and a dim one it will be.
Piss poor role models have shown no empathy, positive communication nor respect.
So the children do not know how to apologize, problem solve and use logical reasoning or be kind.
I believe the children are going to experience some failure.
They lack the skills and training to produce manners that allow society to function productively.
Therefore the quality of life will continually decrease as it has and on into depletion.
I believe the children will destroy the future because they know nothing of the past.
Back to the shores and fields of entrapment the children were kept from reading and writing.
They were hung and limbs were severed at the attempt of any academic gain.
Ignorance meant oppression, and a people oppressed meant wealth for the Masters.
The children are made to learn today, but refuse to follow rules and apply themselves.
I believe the children will continue to be oppressed because they lack knowledge.
These children will teach their children and their children will teach the next.
Each loosing a piece of self until self has become nothing.
I believe we are doomed!

Hallelujah

Hallelujah I am saved today. There is food on my table and brand new clothes on my back. I have a car outside and money to stop by the gas station and fill it up. I must declare that I am blessed today. I awoke in a spacious apartment in a luxurious bed, and I sat up in my right mind. I thanked God as I rolled out of my soft sheets feeling refreshed and said, "Hallelujah, I am saved today!"
