A Lts

Some say life is too short -- and I wish mine was taller but can we stritch it enough,
 and stay fit enough to enjoy him?
Yes, I call life a "him", 
it surley can't be a her,
Its beyond understanding, and can change with a whim...

God Give Me the Strength

God! Give me the strength
 Oh, god give me the strength to forgive
Even when I was not forgiven,
No one to humiliate or to offend
Even when I was humiliated or offended
Give me the wisdom to be always fair,
Teach me to fly and not to be scared,
Not to be indiffernt to the neighbors,
But to live and create for worlds favors.
If I doubt to ask my heart for advice
As my heart never tells me lies.
If im wrong to apologize, 
Insult and hurt not memorize. 
Seven words I'd like here to say, 
They help me to greet each day,
They help to love and live,
They help me to believe, 
They help my PAIN to relieve,
For me they are the main:
TO UNDERSTAND AND TO ACCEPT, TO THANK,TO LOVE AND TO FORGIVE, TO LEARN & TO BELIEVE!

What Is Love

What is love 
but an emotion 
so strong and so pure
That nurtured and shared
with another 
All tests it will endure? 
What is love?,
but a force
To bring the mighty low, 
with the strength to shame the mountains,
And halt time's careless flow? What is love,
but a triumph,
A glorious goal attained, 
The union of two souls,
two hearts,
A bond the angels have 
ordained? What is love, 
but a champion
