he has been abandoned again
he hates his life
hates his therapist
yes it is the one he was in love with last week
he cannot control his moods
they twist him around and throw him against a wall
not really him, for there is no him
only a shell of where a person could have been
he has never felt more adrift
alone abandoned unloved
he is chronically bored
today depressed anyway this minute
there are no grays only blacks and whites
sometimes all bads, other times all goods
this is what borderline personality disorder
does for him
he is empty and lost
perpetually and completely
wait. There is no he.
Each day begins
doing my best
to remember,
to rediscover,
my life as sacred gift,
paid forward by more graceful than clumsy Elders past
of all surviving Creation.
Blessed
and thereby a blessing.
Grace
contingent upon growing gratitude
for life as EgoNurturing gift.
From this gratitude space,
this threshold of rediscovering Ego's grace-filling roots,
I can emerge
into All Lives Are Gifts,
all Earth as Grace.
But, if I cannot feel and cherish
myself as part of this cooperatively-held gift,
if I live in an environment
that more clearly reflects myself to me
as a merely bought and paid for consumer
of others' goods and bads,
a marketable or sadly unmarketable commodity
in society's capital-invested
Win-Lose monoculturing games,
then this larger Earth as Sacred EcoLogical Gift
is accessible
only as LeftBrain Gaian Hypothesis.
Longing for Right with Left poetic freedom faith
not confined by narrative prisons of deductive
reductive
seductive ego-gentric minds
bereft of ecotherapeutic restorative vocations,
nurturing resonant love
of all healthy animated minds.
Minds of and for Win-Win nature optimization,
each and every divinely created ego/eco-centric individual
and diverse AnimaMundi species,
interdependent NetZero 4D fractal
Gaian Historic Seasoned Gifts.
Each life,
each day with night begins
doing our best
to remember,
to rediscover,
lives reweaving sacred grace-full gifts.
Everything you have
Everything you own
Everything you feel, say, and do
is coming from God
You may not want to believe me
But if you think everything is coming from your own doing
You have another thing coming
God doesn't put people on this universe
for things to happen randomly, by chance
Everything has its purpose
down to the minute details
Did you ever think back why things happened, occurred
and not see the Hand of God working?
Did you ever see the rivers, the seas and how it's all woven together for His purpose?
Did you ever look at the moon, the stars, the sun and not think there is a Higher Being than us?
God made those
God made all of us
He creates us for His pleasures, for His blessings, for His adoration
God creates us for His fulfillment
The world wouldn't be like this if it wasn't for His hand
Before we bring on the negatives
Let's look at the positives
And you will see the negatives are actually working for the positives
Don't believe me?
How many times in the past did God actually teach you a lesson and helped you be stronger?
How many times in the past did something happened and the world became a better place?
Before you put God down
Think - Wouldn't your life be a better place with Him or without Him?
Can you technically survive?
All the goods and bads are for a purpose
All the laughs and tears are to magnify His name
So you have feelings?
Do you know they are His feelings?
Yeah, He controls it
Don't kid yourself
You can be happy and sad in one moment flat
If He had a mind to
So give glory to Him
And never take things for granted
As it would not be here today
if He hadn't brought it here
So glamor it, okay?
Glamorize the One who fulfills us
Glamorize the One who adores us
And gives to us
Honor His name
And give
Allow God to embrace your heart
I love everybody
All of humanity
As you read these words
You know me but I'm sure
I must encourage you, this I must do
Why? you ask because I love you
If we all were to love each other
With our eyes close, we would stumble,
Fall and drop the rose
Open you eyes grasp the steam
Embrace the hearts of your fellow man
Why do I say that I love you
It's because God has given me a choice to
Don't you realize that heaven was also on earth
And that out of our disobedience we were cursed
As you read these words
You don't know me but I'm sure
I must encourage you, this I must do
Why? you ask because I love you
There's no sensual, sexual, sinister reason though
It's not about me it's all Jesus. to learn and share agape love
Take heed share with me the free liberty, love real
Be not fake and love religiously
Be what God wants us to be, forgiving, forbearing, share and caring
Let's us not be afraid, love each other as the bible says
Do for me as I'd do for you share your knees with the floor
Pray for other, you, me and the world
Your trial is your testimony, imagine it when your done with it
You'll have the victory
So let us love our neighbor as thy self
Put on your robe, your crown of thorns and let's praise and worship Jesus
Why do I say that I love you
It's because God has given me a choice to
Don't you realize that heaven was also on earth
And that out of our disobedience we were cursed
Lastly but eternally I shall always say, that I love you
This is Jesus way
I love you for your human and you are loved
I love you for your a man, woman, boy and girl
I love you for your mind, I love you for kind
I love you for your race, no matter the color of your face
I love you for you're elderly, I love you for your wrongs
I love you for goods your bads when your happy or sad
I love you for the peace of your sweet release
I love you for you who am I to judge
I love you cause we're all just sinners, SAVED by grace
And when you're done reading this verse
Give your closest loved one a hug and a kiss
God loves you more than I, I can't judge I've no heaven nor hell to send you
I love humanity just because I SHOULD
You are not broken but chosen Be blessed
Allow God to embrace your heart
I love everybody
All of humanity

I am a widow;
And I'm alone but not alone
Oh', And I've been without a wife for 3 years 9 months 4 days
And the grieving process was very strong the first couple of years
I met my first and only wife at the age of 17 and a half years old
I was on her job sitting in the reception area in front of her just staring glaring at her
Yes it was a young teenage love that I had for her
And believe it or not she had standards
She didn't want an extreme lazy man conceited a pretty boy
She didn't drink alcohol or smoke cigarettes or do marijuana
She had standards
Oh she said if you think you're interested in me you have to do the minimum of one thing
You have to go to church and try to be righteously with me
I said if that's all you want for this courtship being old-fashioned I told her I got this
So approximately 3 years later for my 21st birthday we said I do and in a religious ceremony we got married
After 40 years of marriage three children and my two grandchildren
On June 18th 2016 God took back his daughter
Leaving me here alone but not alone
Marriage is beautiful in the essence of God
And holy when you include God
Marriage is more then just touching and awe sexual intercourse
Marriage is sanctioned by God and glorified and beautiful impart more blessed
I had a dream last night to paraphrase yes it was real but I met someone that we talked and I looked in her eyes it was all positive we are on one Accord I'm not physically looking for I love to spouse but God knows my heart?
I miss I do miss positive marriage the goods and the bads the ups and the downs The Joint devotionals and all that expound
I do miss marriage... I Do

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr 2020
Faraway in an unknown
Unknown distant land
Land she sleeps
And wake all alone
All alone she lives
Lives and waits
Waits for me to come
Waits for me to come
Come take her to be
mine.
Every morning
In that faraway
Distant and unknown
land
She sings and sweeps
Like the African Woman
she is!
...Inside her
Is my child
Yet unborn...
It is to you
My unborn child
That this address is to...
...My child
Whenever, Wherever
and Whichever
Way you choose to come
Into this world
May you meet this as a
gift
From me to you!!!
...I am your father
Pride you are to me
See you not I may
And see you I may
But let it ring down in
you
That a pride to me
You are...
...This world you are
Coming into
Is a ugly beautiful place
A hopefully hopeless city
A beautiful city
With ugly villages
Which houses men
Of different varied
intents
And women
Whose animalistic
innerlings
Are covered with
glowing skins
And ready made
garments!!!
...I had done my part
My part to bring you
hither
And leave for you
A lot of deeds
Both good and not too
good
Also bad and not too
bad.
I had done my part
To bring you hither
In the best vessel
around!
And grow will you
In this truly wicked
world
To be nice and
righteous
Till you strive and
strive
To make it
Better than you met it...
Just like I
Your father...
...You know me not
My unborn child
But my news you hear
From that which is your
carrier
Of the too many bads
That I did
And of too few goods
That by me are done.
Struggle! Struggle!!
My dear Unborn Child
To better my deeds
And better your lots
For the betterment of
the world!...
...Though it be cruel to
you
Fight to abrogate
cruelity
Though it be ugly to you
Struggle to promote
beauty
Though it be a hell for
you
Endeavour to create a
heaven in it.
...For the world
Is always not what
It seem to be
And in it
Nothing remains as it is
For so long a time
Like Mariama Ba's
Long Letter!...
...So my dear child
Learn from my story
Avoid my pitfalls
Use my strengths
Understand my
weaknesses
And drink from my
wisdom pot
And it shall better you...
...For...
You are
My Unborn Child...
