Premium Member SOME RANDOM THOUGHTS

Some random thoughts today on the kind of person I would like to be
as well as the kind of world…I would like to see.

The first and most important behavior I’d like to see everyone put into effect…
would be to treat EVERYONE, yes EVERYONE, with dignity and respect.

When dealing with people, animals and the earth…
a gentle soul is who we all should endeavor be from the start.
Never look down on ANYONE 
or with revenge, resentment and animosity in our heart.

Do not blame poverty on the people who are trying to survive it
They are not the ones who stimulate, who force, propel or drive it.

Everyone should do their best everyday in this world
for harmony, unity, love and friendship to increase…
It is easy but disastrous to promote hate and prejudice and war
It is more difficult but more beneficial to promote
kindness, love and peace.

We must diversify our lives and our education
as we strive for a world of peace of love and harmony.
Improve our civil and religious liberties
and make sure everyone understands the meaning of equality.

Our Earth is sacred….we should walk on her with a soft and gentle pace
She is filled with wonders we’ve yet to uncover…
she is not a depository for our waste.

We should fill the wold with music, poetry and art…
encourage all people everywhere to think.
These are as important to a happy life as what we eat and drink.

And finally it should be the duty of everyone, every country on this planet
to ensure everyone else is safe, housed, fed and free
to set an example of humanity and justice
not one of inequality and cruelty.?

U and I

Who is there for me in times of trouble?
You're no longer my muse...it's kicked into the rubble
You and I will never be the same again
Tell me now - where have you been?

Sticks and stones 
May break my bones
You and I weren't meant to be together
You and I are better off loving another
Sticks and stones
May blow my phones
But, I won't answer my phone
For, I will be left on my own...
All alone...
With or without you

Who are you to say that my life is worthless?
You're never going to take away my happiness
You and I will never be the same again
Tell me please - where have you been...
Where have you been...
Where have you been...
For the rest of my life...
Dealing with endless strife

Sticks and stones 
May break my bones
You and I weren't meant to be together
You and I are better off loving another
Sticks and stones
May blow my phones
But, I won't answer my phone
For, I will be left on my own...
All alone...
With or without you

What are you waiting for?
Aren't I the one that you adore?
There is so much hope and joy in store...
So, what are you waiting for? To get through the front door?

Sticks and stones 
May break my bones
You and I weren't meant to be together
You and I are better off loving another
Sticks and stones
May blow my phones
But, I won't answer my phone
For, I will be left on my own...
All alone...
With or without you

With or without you,
I feel rather down with the love flu
With or without you,
I feel like I can't gather my thoughts of rue
You and I weren't meant to be together as one
You and I are never going to shine like the sun
So, hold me tight tonight...
With all of your might...
You're the one that has left me in pieces
You left me paralyzed with your lack of peace
You and I were never meant to be in love
You and I are like a raven and a dove
Opposites sometimes don't attract
To be exact, that is truth and fact

Special K Pt 4

“You saw them two sticks of that chicks’  and you know when you saw them you would easily be teased until on your knees, bereaved and pleased just by one simple hint of a squeeze breezing by the easily greasy feasibly weave that would succeed the mead that would come from honey by the bunny that would breed the pleading steed doing the deed that would not only completely beat the heat but accomplish the feat leaving the steep cleat carousing creeps to seek a new discreet meet up to wreak their teal dealing tear drop one stop hop hillbilly thrills of the buzz kills that go to stop the lot of pill popping pushers of the lush gush ers who stutter when one blunder makes a whole sunder of plunder wonder scum but humble for some done shunned gunning under-run mung crumb grumblers who then became grateful because the fate of the hate breaking masturbating mating rituals became habitually cyclically mystical in the fulfilling pill-killer of a psycho thriller!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Turkey and Pumpkin Pies

To all wo crave turkey...good appetite and good health!
Utilize your skills in creating charm in a bright dining room. 
Round up the best ideas for success, ask if you need help.
Kidding yourself is absurd, get all the help from friends.
Enamor yourself with dinnerware and silverware that match.
Yearn for an athmosphere so warm, cheerful and elegant.
Allow kindness when dealing with kids who spill apple cider.
Nobody should be privileged to say Grace but the host. 
Dance afterward with everyone in the decorated living room.
Papa can smoke his cigar, if it doesn't bother the guests.
Unity should be stronger on this day when all thank the Lord.
Major issues about noises, caused by children, should be ignored.
Pretend that Thanksgiving Day is the last one they'll ever see.
Keyboard should play Hymns of thanks, not songs they all like.
Inside the fireplace, the red log crackles reminiscing Thansgivings past.
Nag not when the dog chases the cat under the table...laugh!
Parents should be soft, not harsh...let Thansksgiving be a fun day!
Inside the fireplace the log crackles...reminishing of Thanksgivings past.
Endure the screams and the fights a little longer...no child is an angel.
Say the final prayer of gratitude as everyone bows their heads.

Premium Member Key Life Guidance

Nothing external can provide happiness.
Yet, it's how you view life through its rawness.
Millions of people come to us every day.
Fighting for food and relying on one pay.

Thank God that they have a roof overhead.
Dealing with finer aspects of life is a daily dread.
We all face difficulties in our strives.
Fear thwarts our efforts to sustain our lives.

Don't wait around for things to improve.
Actuate a list of everything you should prove.
Start now to promote a state of peace.
Otherwise, you won't have time to increase.

Instead, for your sanity, you need to let people go.
Carefully claim care of your health and mental ego.
They are family because they secern the button to push.
Forgiveness, letting go and moving on hush.

Blunders are affable teachers with a lifelong lesson.
Ask yourself, "What can we learn from now on?"
Deplete recent information to improve your life.
A fitter life from beauteous mistakes and strife.

Premium Member Eve

I often ask MYSELF,
What if I wasn't LEFT?

"Would I have been deceived if I wasn't ALONE?"
Of course, I will never know, but yet I wonder ON.

Unfortunately, I missed a very great BLESSING;
But I learned a very valuable LESSON.

I learned the value of communication in RELATIONSHIPS.
I was in a sense stripped of one of God's greatest GIFTS.

I learned to always be aware of with whom I am DEALING.
Otherwise, our whole life can become completely CONFUSING.

In my case, I should have at least asked for my husband's OPINION.
Instead, I allowed myself to give in to someone else's ATTENTION.

The Chicken Coop

The Chicken Coop
Down on Farmer Brown’s poultry farm
Amongst the Barns and the old cowsheds no longer used
A bunch of Chickens run around in fear
Dashing about looking all confused
Loud clucking is all you hear
It’s all because a nasty vicious fox is in the neighbourhood
 So they are in fear of their lives, panic sets in
Until Mr Brown’s  old Alsatian dog Buster
Starts barking making such a din
He is used to scaring off vermin
That is his main job after all
The chickens all feel safe again
Now Buster is there standing tall
Mavis Mr Brown’s lady wife
Comes to collect the morning eggs
Like she’s done so all her married life
The two of them have been together for nearly fifty years
Through thick and thin they have seen it all
But farming is the only life they know 
Dealing with problems together however big or small
The Chickens have settled down again
Now the fox has been made to disappear
The old rather large old Rhode Island Red Cockerel
Is now strutting his stuff with his bright colours all on show never fear
He really is a show off and creates a rather loud din
When he crows early when the mornings get light
He wakes everyone nearby with his loud racket
Old Buster gets quite an early morning fright 
He would rather be awakened buy lots of Girls and Boys
The local primary school does day trips to the farm
So they can see all the animals and chase the chickens
But Buster always makes sure that they don’t come to any harm
They love it when the chicks have hatched
All running around the chicken run
They squawk and jump around a lot
They seen to have such fun
It’s nice to think that children enjoy
Seeing how a Chicken Farm is run
And how much noise a Rooster can make
From morning to the setting Sun

Premium Member Depression Times - Party Times

Depression times – no one went out
To theatres, concerts, movie shows –
They had friends in or went to their homes.
The whole country was more than broke.
There was always drinking at the parties
And a low-lying cloud of cigarette smoke.
I didn’t like the parties my parents had. 
They were too loud, too over the top!
Sitting at the top of the stairs I watched.
People danced or sat on each other’s laps
And smoked and drank and sometimes smooched.
Apparently liquor was cheap and available.
Sometimes it got rowdy after a while
When everyone had a bit too much to drink.
Sometimes my mother passed out, and friends
Would laugh and lay her on the couch.
Later, there would be fights between my parents
And threats of one or the other leaving. 
I didn’t – couldn’t – understand the times –
That people had to let their hair down,
Let go of the tensions of their everyday lives
And that sometimes they went too far.
By turns I was scared, anxious, embarrassed
And mortified for my parents.
Once, when I was a little older, I came downstairs
And made a scene about the drinking.
My parents sent me off to bed with a sound
Scolding about being rude and obnoxious.
For many, many years, far into adulthood,
I would not drink, would not have liquor  
In the house for anyone else to drink.
I still have difficulty dealing with
Anyone who overindulges in alcohol.
Childhood experiences leave us with unseen scars.
When one feels one’s life is out of one’s control,
That becomes a permanent fear, and control
Becomes obsessively important.
My parents weathered those years,
And the ones that followed.
They were married for fifty years,
And I married and have my own family.
But I still find I want to be sure I have 
Everything in  my life under control.
That’s one reason I still drink very little.
