Mindless Thoughts & Serious Scribblings

[Bigfoot Oracle]

I'm so very ordinary
Nothing special on my own
I have never walked on water
I have never calmed a storm
Sometimes I'm hiding away from the madness around me
Like a child who's afraid of the dark

But when I call on Jesus
All things are possible
I can mount on wings like eagles and soar
When I call on Jesus
Mountains are gonna fall
'Cause He'll move heaven and earth to come rescue me when I call

Weary brother
Broken daughter
Widowed, widowed lover
You're not alone
If you're tired and scared of the madness around you
If you can't find the strength to carry on

Call Him in the mornin'
In the afternoon time
Late in the evenin'
He'll be there
When your heart is broken
And you feel discouraged
You can just remember that He said
He'll be there

[Bigfoot Oracle]

Turkeys are not so happy today...they've been fleshly molested...

THE RETURN HOME

Today, I did something great
I smiled at myself
I danced in my room
I sang at the top of my lungs
I slept for 12 full hours
I combed my hair and told myself
that I am a beautiful person

Today, I did something great
I did not think of what others had to say
I took a day-off and told them I am
going to have a date with myself
To hell with reasons that I am sick or that
I have to go somewhere to use up my leave credits
Work has consumed most of my time
Everybody deserves a day-off, myself included
It’s time for reaping some benefits

Today, I did something great
I sat down and prayed..
I prayed for my parents and my Mama
I prayed for my siblings…
I prayed for those who left us
I prayed for my friends, and my enemies as well
I prayed for love, I prayed for us…
I prayed for myself—for strength, for peace of mind….

Today, I did something great…
I hugged my baby brother
I did not have a temper and I had a quiet afternoon
with my family and siblings
I texted my loved one and thanked him for just being there
I told him I love him so much
and he texted me back…
To love and to be loved back is one of God’s way
of showing I matter…

Today, I did something great
I went home…
to myself and to my family…
They say that when one leaves and
decides to return, he/she will realize
A lot of things have changed…
but the big things will always remain---
God. My Daddy. My Mommy. My Mama.
My 5 kulit and loving brothers.
My sister. My best friends.
my loved one…myself…
These are my big things…
for with them, I am no little thing…
and with them, even if all else fails,
even when my past haunts me
or the future is tempting me to be anxious,
I believe I have nothing to fear
and that I have a home to go to everyday
and that I could always do great things…..

the sun slowly rises
and a new day begins
today is a new beginning
full of things uncertain
like fear, doubt and anxiety

but that is not all the day brings
with it comes life, hope
and most of all, love

today we made a promise
despite all the trials we face
one fact shines out
we promised to be together
through all that life has to offer
both good and bad

so as the day breaks
we start on a new journey
filled with hope and dreams
and a few doubts for sure
but from now on
we face it as one
you and me
as the new day dawns......
