Why Worry

Why worry about tomorrow, when it lessen your efficiency for tomorrow
Why worry about tomorrow, when it’s pure waste of energy
Why worry about yesterday, when it’s long gone
Why worry about yesterday, when today is your precious possession

For all worry does is to sap today of its joy
Robs tomorrow of its happiness
Oh why worry?
When little bits of worry everyday in a lifetime
Leads to a loss of couples of years

Say no to worry
For worry cripples the mind and never fix anything
Henceforth, rather than worrying
A day at a time you should live
Wisely and earnestly, live every present moment
With less anticipation of trouble!!

My Special Being

Just like every other day
I journey through my memorable day
The very day I met this special being
A being I slightly criticized for having red eyes and being too black
Though, I acknowledged in my heart
That those eyes were beautiful

But I had no idea
That someday this being
Would be a blessing, a lesson, and be so important to me
Indeed, it is true
We don’t meet people by accident
They are meant to cross our path for a reason
A reason so vivid to me now
LOVE, the reason is love
I felt it and it feels good

Though scary!
When you feel too vulnerable
When just a smile melts your heart
When you try so hard to shut out the feeling but can’t
When no word can fully describe all you feel

Still, it feels so good
And I thank God for such a great privilege
To feel good
To meet and include this special being
In this beautiful and unforgettable part of my life this 2015

Alas!!! Let no one tell you otherwise
You are a special being
And am so sure
Because, only special people make you happy without doing anything
So, thank you my special star
Thank you for being who you are !!

Dare To Make a Difference

Life is brief
Relief yourself from grief
But believe
Share my flair
Declare always in prayer 
And care to dare
Either in thick or thin darkness, DARE to make a difference!
In hopefulness or hopelessness, DARE to have hope my friend!
In pain or gain, DARE to smile my friend!
In grace or grass, DARE to be grateful my friend!
Dare to make positive difference
Dare to help others feel great
Dare to live great in this generation
Dare to do great in this generation
And generations to come shall remember you DARED!

Be Expectant

When situation really gets so tough
And faith, so difficult to have
Refusing to give up is the key and the hope
Our attitude towards the situation 
Either gives or steals away our Joy
Being depressed is a factor of our thought
Hey!!! Get over your depression episode
For, somehow you are better than someone out there
Get off your problems 
And go help someone

Give up not! Give up not!
For everything is changeable except God
Have hope and faith
Like a pregnant woman is pregnant with a child
Be pregnant with hope, idea, goals and beautiful imaginations
Like a pregnant woman is expectant and called expectant mother
Endeavour to be called an expectant being
Full of expectation and be active
For your creator is able and longing for the appointed time
To be gracious to you
So cheer up, for tough times is like a sowing time
But like a farmer sows with an expectation to harvest someday
YOU WILL HARVEST SOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In Your Eye

In your eye so bright
I find the light that makes me move
In your eye so tender
I find the hope to step forward and higher
In your eye so meek
I find what people call tolerance
In your eye so clear
I find the blue of the sky
The waves of the sea
In that precious eye of yours
I find the elegance in fish
The gentleness of a dove
In your eye my dear
I find greatness, great future, for you and me!!
