Everyone wants an adventure, and a place to return to
An offer they simply cannot refuse
A worthwhile experience to be told for ages
And how can that be given?
Its simple really
Camaradrie
Unhinged letters to one another
Making the other laugh
A journey meant for those who can take
Acceptance of flaws
Protecting each others peace
The only way to turn cracks into art pieces
A promise to our future selves
A bond to be passed down to generations
Promises under the moon
Cherishing of achievements
Guardians to each others soul
Giving in is inevitable
A golden reward
Waiting for those who are willing to choose it
Something I still lack
Yet it could be yours-
If you are willing
Take heart! There is nothing more grand
than to hold a little one's hand.
The Developing World
Incredible scientific growth, real futuristic
Development is an unstoppable progress
Millions of achievements, human creativity
I had a tape recorder, in the eighties,
and vacuum tube and transistor television
But now? Microchips drive satellites in the sky
Forty years only, it is nothing in the time
My mobile phone is a micro hi-fi system,
a television, a post, a library, an office,
a studio, and a lot of high-tech things
I can’t list everything. I can’t imagine.
What will phones be like after a hundred years?
The greatest achievements in life are those you make to build yourself and lift other people. What you do to pull others down is a disgrace

Man suffers in life
because he takes
so seriously, what
the gods created
for fun.
He's entangled in
his own carnal desires,
which keeps him in bondage,
unable to progress his soul.
Life is a merry go round
and earth is the playground.
Where man can be amused by
his carnal desires, achievements,
enjoyment, social status
and his ego.
Man became a lover
and slave to these things.
Which brought upon
himself, his own greed
and suffering.
Forgetting where he came from,
how he got here, and
where to go after his
game is over.
Man must be stripped
from his name, career,
possessions, and his personality
in order to find his individuality.
Without ever knowing this,
he will always be the cause
of his own suffering.
He must detach from
his mortal self and return
formless back to the light,
from which he came from.
With rights and chances given by democracy
You're free to pursue values of life
Enjoy the achievements and face the consequences
But you'll be judged
In front of the law or God during the last destiny
This clearly defines the real meaning of democracy
And so please don't commit any evils
In the name of democracy
Why do some folks belittle an education
Looking down on those with degrees?
Jokes about the educated in circulation
Making learning like an unwanted disease.
Many smart folks are ashamed to admit
Their diplomas, degrees, and certificates,
For some will laugh, calling them unfit
Like they are unappreciated illegitimates.
All of us have some needed unique ability
We all make up our societies’ inclusion --
Some with limitations, others’ great agility
We must never on others cast aspersion.

Everyone
Building wealth
Pursuing luxuries
May have long forgotten
Besides lullabies
Little cuddly babies
Cry for mummy and daddy
Besides ambitions and achievements
We need love and sympathy
Love for the valentines
Sympathy for the refugees
Besides love and sympathy
We need an elicitation of responses
For the deficiency and poverty
Planning requires grit and devotion to succeed,
Does triumph make you shiver down your spine?
Propelling, freed
accomplishment
I fought with more pertinacity than bulldogs.
I cannot help but look at the success,
Does insufficiency make you shiver?
Stigma does not end with lateness or quiver.
Would night demise throw by a droop
Of the early morning shimmer?
Dad geese the goal
setting the path

PURPOSEFUL LIFE
Why am I alive?
its answer is not in my insight
for what I have to strive
its answer is not satisfying
suddenly the answer arrive
with my ears strike
for many reasons
you are alive
for helping others and guide
don't think life is in vain
just think what you have gained.
C-hurch of Christ students
B-ring honor to their parents
I-n their achievements.

The most glorious achievements of Man's intellect are but dim reflections of spiritual reality!

I’m on fire
Can do no more
Achievements galore
Feisty on there
Honors came
One a many, and
Listening to her breath
She was delighted
That meant more
Treats come later
Ones I ask for
And some not
I’m the winner
The top success
I cannot do more
Than love her
