Live On: Tips For Happy Living

Live life to its fullest
Seize the moments along the way
Live your best life…be your best self
Elevate the everyday. 

Make a positive impression on others 
Don’t fret too much…go with the flow
Offer inspiration and consolation when needed 
Be authentic; leave a trail of magic wherever you go. 

Embark on the next step of your journey 
It’s time to make your move
Where will your footprints lead?
Tell people “watch me” and then get into your groove. 

Acknowledge and appreciate your fabulousness 
Dream on…have faith and believe
Love without limits…listen to your heart 
It’s ok to wear your heart on your sleeve. 

Live every day with an open heart 
Unique experiences are waiting for you
Welcome the adventures that come your way 
Appreciate and love what you do.  

Hold fast to what is good
Even when it rains, there will be sunshine when the rain goes away
Find your moment of sunshine 
Transform your life in a positive way. 

Be a peace seeker… be a peace maker 
Remember it’s wonderful to be kind
Be socially conscious and respectful to others 
Have a generous heart, a brave spirit, and a clever mind. 

Dance to your own songs
Make the most of each and every day 
Think enthusiastically about your future 
Dream like nothing stands in your way. 

Helping to change one’s life can last a lifetime 
When you give freely, you grow
You will be everything to the right someone 
Choosing to support others can help you find your flow. 

Remember that you are an original 
Make each day count because when they’re gone, they’re gone 
Life…make your mark 
Give praise and thanks every day and LIVE ON!

The Tomorrow War With Yourself

Growth is fundamental to your life
Therefore, the tomorrow war will occur 
Because the fight for self-growth is challenging 
Often resulting in tomorrow's war with yourself!

Understand the common flaw within yourself
Self-doubt is the virus in us that is often
Brought on by peoples’ opinions of you!
Stop bullying yourself
Understand fully that you are beyond the negativity
Like a prism
Your life reflects different strengths and weaknesses
So you go through different seasons!
At times you will ask yourself,
“Where is the real you?” and
At times you will feel paralyzed
Because of the war within yourself!

Don’t let low self-esteem
Be an excuse to let you be at war with yourself forever!
Disappointment can become the key to progress!
Don’t fear the war with yourself
It will come for a season 
But never fall into the trap to allow 
Immunity to others through attacking yourself!
Make your move and heal your wounds
You are bound to face yourself and win!
Growth is fundamental to your life
The tomorrow war will occur because
The fight for self-growth is challenging 
Often resulting in tomorrow's war with yourself!

Premium Member Sweet Darling

Sweet Darling, all I think about is you.
When I’m alone, I daydream and I pine.
To be your Valentine, what must I do?

You’ve caught me gazing at your eyes of blue,
your locks of golden hair, and smile so fine.
Sweet darling, all I think about is you.

We’re friends, but don’t you have by now a clue
that I adore you? (that’s not just a line!)
To be your Valentine, what must I do?

You need to know my love for you is true.
Were I the sun, for you alone I’d shine.
Sweet Darling, all I think about is you.

I want you, and I think you want me too.
Yet nothing happens! Please give me a sign.
To be your Valentine, what must I do?

Just make your move, and see what can ensue.
I guarantee that it will be divine.
Sweet Darling, all I think about is you.
To be your Valentine, what must I do?

The Game of Life

I am in a game that I can't win its call life 
Playing without the rules 
No matter the moves I make I am back at the same spot 
Crying and praying for the same old thing 
I know I can't win  but I  keep playing, I don't have a choice
I keep moving forward but I am at the same spot replaying the same old moves... Getting the same result... Crazy
My mind and heart are at war... No winners here, fighting for love I can't have 

God has the rules and the plan
I can't win unless God decides 
Without God, I can't win this game call life 
The rain is falling, I really need the sun 
Tired of the pain 
I hate this game 
No matter my move I can't win, only the king can win this game
I am only a pawns in this game call life
God allows you to make your move but that's just it ...a move   
The game of life... Only God has the plan
God is slow in his movements but sure in his wisdom 
No matter my move it's going back to his plan 
Only he can decide who wins in the game of LIFE

Premium Member My Cyber Family Is My Real Family

Three D people no longer hold my loyalties
I am a troll, spending up to six hours a day
Okay, make it ten
on computer sites, with my new family

Get your own dinner, I holler to my children
They rummage in my purse getting money
Whatever
I am farming; it takes hours and hours
My crops are overdue

Can you please pay attention to me? Someone whines.
It is my husband.
He is a professional whiner
If he got paid for it, we would be billionaires.

I begin to play my word games
Because my new family is sending me messages
Make your move!
Or a yawning emoji

Going to bed is easier now.
I take my electronics with me
Eventually falling asleep 
sometime between midnight and morning


Connection

We all know those who cannot meet – 
Too busy, too much doing.
We understand and do not feel
That they are misconstruing.

Some that I know can’t even call – 
They cannot spare a minute.
I know they wish they had more time;
I have to bear and grin it.

There’s one way to communicate
That somehow never ends;
And if you play, you know that I
Refer to “Words with friends.”

It only takes a minute –
Check your letters, make your move;
But when you hit the “Play” key,
You know someone will approve.

It’s the modern day connector.
When I find myself a’yearn,
I plunk my word upon the board;
It’s now my partner’s turn.

It’s not quite conversation,
But connection nonetheless.
In times like these, such reciprocity
Denotes success!

Greatness

I am destined for greatness,
I just need to learn patience.
I am destined for greatness,
I just need to learn patience.

If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.
If you set your mind to it you can do it.
Not giving up is a mentality like 
Strategizing when playing chess.

Just wait for the right time 
To make your move 
When you do I pray 
It comes true for you.

I am destined for greatness,
I just need to learn patience.
I am destined for greatness,
I just need to learn patience.

Everyone in life wants to have 
A big break and reach success.
Whether it’s working on computers
With Steve Wozniak and Bill Gates.

Or living in the mansion,
With crazy Will and Uncle Phil. 
If you work hard for every shot
There's not a single defender, 
Whom can block your shot?

I am destined for greatness,
I just need to learn patience.
I am destined for greatness,
I just need to learn patience.

Premium Member Cracks In the Wall of Your Prison

Burst through... 
  the cracks in the wall 
    of your prison and free yourself 
      completely from the virulent affliction 
        of self-doubt, of fear, of shame, of guilt, 
          of anything that blocks the pathway 
            of your dreams for that matter. Ignore 
             the voices of pessimism in your head. Purge 
                all impurities taking up residence in your mind.  
                  Be free, my friend, be that hope that escaped  
              Pandora's box. Don't let anything hold you 
           captive. You're stronger than you'll ever 
        know. I repeat, you are stronger than 
      you'll ever know! So make your move;
    burst through the cracks in the wall
  or your prison and feel the warmth
of sunshine on your face!
