Life's Lesson For You

This is GOD'S GIFT to YOU

Tell yourself upon waking everyday god is merciful and kind

He will not put anything on me today I can't handle

Live one day at a time yesterday is gone and tomorrow hasn't come it is today

I am worthy

I will I will make it thru just today

The sun will come out tomorrow if you believe god brings you to it he will bring you thru it

Now with this being said I must tell you a true story I have brain cancer and it is in my memory I have had brain surgery and a year of chemo but I have a lot of problems with health and mental and well I am a village idiot most of the time but I live in a town where the closed a mental hospital so I feel right at home now.
  So you are not alone most nights I lie awake and this computer is my only friend
my daughter saved my life not once but twice I mixed chemicals in the bath tub while trying to clean it. The other time I had a diabetes things where I passed out.
 

Always trust in god I know it gets hard sometimes and you want to give up but
he is in control. 

I still have brain cancer but he said believe in what I say it will be ok.
I have given him total control and he has me 9yrs more but they are not a bed of roses either so you have to expect a thorn or two along the way.

Jesus

Jesus wants us to come with a willing heart
Everyone has free will
Saves all who believe in him and confess in his name
Unto him freely come all to him freely give he will 
Save with his love, mercy,hope,and grace

Walk a Mile In My Shoes

I know this is for comments so I want to start out by telling all a story:

I am a brain surgery savior and it stinks at spelling even with spell check on the computer because if you don't hit the right button to start with the spell check can't help you get it but if your memory has been cut open know one knows and even I can't remember what I should type so I try everyday. 
My grammer stinks but I think living behind this screen has help me deal with
my cancer better than any other Doctor out there.

SO if ya'll say anything that I don't like I pull up my big girl panties and get right 
back out there and try again because stick and stones are all that can hurt me
and my daddy told me when I was but a little gril opions are like a**holes everybody's gotta's them and some of them stink so just don't breathe so deep.

Doors Within My Mind

doors in my mind
all I see is flashes of memory
I wish I could live with what I see
it is just not clear to me
can it be
I just lost my memory 
why can't I see
oh I forgot I had brain surgery
it was because I had a brain tumor
if I try real hard maybe I will see
where they left part of that tumor in me
I know if I see where they left part of that tumor in me 
then I just might keep my mind and not go blind

Now I have no pride and no place to hide
You took it all from me when you ask me to reveal all to you
on an appeal

My One True Love,

My Darling,
 I fear my time is near and there are some things I must say. I have loved you from the first time I set eyes upon you across the room. Even though my heart was breaking I cried tears of sorrow and of joy at the same time for I lost the love of my life while she gave birth to her love of her life.
 Now I never remarried for you made my life complete.I watched you grow up and change from a little girl into a woman and if I stay I know I will only be in the way. I am bed ridden and can't even take control of my pipe so what good would I be when the grandchildren come in to see me. I look off in the distance I can see her.
She smiles at me and she still looks like she did the day she went away she told me she would wait for me so don't delay.

 I hesitate to leave you my love but he did ask for you hand and I hope he's a good man. If he doesn't treat you well he better know your parent will be looking down to see all below. Live happy love well and above all be blessed. For I wish the lord dwell in you house as he did in mine.
                              My Best Friend in the world.
                              My one true love,
                                Daddy

The Best Man a Girl Ever Had

He was the best lil' man a girl ever have 
I was five and he was six
He had red hair and freckles and said the darnest things 
One day we were on the front porch in the swing he looked at me and said sugar
do you know what I want to do I said no daddy cause that what he told me to call him my lil' daddy but he told me he want to take them two cats and tie their tails together and I told him I didn't think that was a good idea but when lil' daddy got it in his head you could not stop him so I told him well we needed to think of some way of holding them cat down to tie them tails so he run to the barn and came back with two corn sacks and we each caught a cat well my cat was a girl and she was tame but lil' daddy got ole tom and he was not so friendly and he started to claw his way out of that sack but lil' daddy wasn't going down without a fight and tom gave him one lil '  daddy was bloody from the top of his head to the bottom of his arms but tom did get his tail tied to my cat she wasn't no more happier that tom when mama heard the noise she came a runnin' with a switch and tanned our hides but by this time the cats already got loose

What I Could Do With More Daylight

If I could have a longer day with you
My nights could be shorter and less toucher to get thru
All I do is lie awake until' mornings light
I would stay until the dusk sets and pray you don't get wet
For all I know you might get caught in the snow
I would try to stay away til mornings light then fall on my knees to please
So tell me if you think I'm sick it won't cut me to the quick
Daylight savings time is near I hope you hear my plight dear
Say you will stay all day
Until the night comes I need you near promise me my dear to stay and not go for this is my fear

Stormy Night

wind swirls all about
lighting flashes thunder crashes  
tis' such a stormy night
I can almost touch the light
as I take flight to my feet
I wonder why I left my seat

then comes the calm of the storm
wind dies, the souls cry and the earth shakes in it's wake

why did he let the storm come
was it just to shake us up maybe he sick of us all
he is the seeker of truth and light
so why must he send down rain with all his might

Come Take a Trip With Me

Come take a trip with me it more of a journey
Ride life's hi-way with me the thrills and chills of all the pills
Climb inside my mind after brain surgery when I could hear but not speak;
It was what I would have imagine doing acid or LSD would be 
not being able to speak or walk falling when you tried by yourself but as I got better
I could stand on my own after a week I could walk but talk it took longer and I was 
a BIG TALKER & WRITER but not so much anymore so when I do it is not for the prize 
I do it for me to prove to myself I still can 

Come take a trip with me down my life's hi-way
My road has not been long but fill with lots of big pot holes
First before I was a double digit midget I fell and cut my writing arm
thus forcing me to learn how to write again first pot hole
I was putting up groceries with my brothers and I was hit with a 5lb can of coffee
in the face cutting my nose 5 stitches second pot hole
Riding my horse in a race and was bit by the other horse and again stitches third pot hole
kidnapped in my teens but got away four pot hole
I thought when I got married I broke the curse wrong I flipped a pickup when I was 
pregnant 3 times me and the baby took our first steps together fifth pot hole
Then he want somebody to play with it took 5 years to get a sister six pot hole
His senior year I battled brain cancer I had brain surgery and the took out as much of the tumor as they could now my husband and children are stuck raising me 
I now have cancer low sugar seizures and high blood pressure but it wont be any of theses that get me oh no my kids will be the DEATH of me 
For with love come the greatest pot hole in life at the bottom is the most emotional
ride joy anger hate compassion kindness consideration discipline and wrapped up and sewn together with love so I know 
Even the smallest ants cast a long shadows
I have been gone from the soup for months ands Linda came to look me up and invited me to her blog it was because I had a grand mall and it sucked!

O Halloween Night

Upon this night I worrie about this sight
It is to dare be in fright
All the thing will be among the souls to tell run from here to scare us all to hell
Now we must try with all I might to not lose our faith upon this night
For the gates of hell will surly open up and send among us all evil demons 
This I am sure will animal and humans both give a fright
Please we all need to take heed tonight
Stay indoors tonight out of sight
Lie the morning light come so bright
Right her might so all the demons will lose their might 
So they will return to hell with out the right
No more souls did they take this night
