Poem
Destiny never announces to us our place of arrival The streets, countries or cities Sometimes our journey is by circumstance Other times it is divine At thirty eight years old I was still looking for Mr direction I was still in the smoky mushy atmosphere of confusion Until I stepped out by the invitation of Mr self confidence Ahhhhh I need to tell you the story Things I discovered You are alone in this world and so many people we call friends are just acquaintances Some don’t even qualify as acquaintances Talk about money please don’t go there It’s a situation for excuses But you learn and you grow up You learn to choose friends wisely You grow up to soak up the motions You also grow up to follow your heart in all issues I sometimes regret relationship mistakes But it gave me relationship wisdom Needy, emotionally disturbed women are dangerous They are time wasters and destiny killers Being single is as challenging as being married And none is bad If you are still single enjoy every bit of it And if you are married carry your cross and don’t complain Life is a journey I stepped out yeah I did And am loving it Loving it on the way to my beautiful destination A destination created by wisdom and plenty knowledge From all of life mistakes All the time Jesus was always cheering me on Go you can make it Get off the floor is not your place Get up move Do what you love to do You can make it Oh Jesus I love you so Jesus never criticised me When everyone trampled on me Jesus always comforted The greatest friend in the world, also my comforter Same friend is the one that always leads me to all truth Hmmm my beautiful destination Am almost there When you fall down make sure you pick something I contemplated suicide once now I just laugh Because its foolishness There is nothing new everything you are going through has happened before Every challenge has a solution Yes, I have been in that lonely hopeless place Where I thought life has ended But guess what; it just started The wisdom and lessons you learn Illumines the darkness in your life And suddenly you now have direction And you know exactly what to do with your life It’s called discovering your purpose When you arrive here people don’t push you around anymore Or give you stupid pieces of advice Please put on a smile and some dancing shoes and turn on that switch Put some light in your life For fun people are living people And living people are attracted to living people Enjoy your life The screws are still intact Shalom.
