I Need Clarity....

CONFUSION

imikimi - Customize Your World!

In life...
no matter how much love,
or feelings of connection we share.
we often find its not quite enough
to truly understand,
what we really need from each other
or to show how much we really care..

Why is it so hard for human beings,
To express what's inside them with clarity?
Why do we belittle each others intelligence...
and in the process diminish the integrity....
of what we share..

You could say I'm a person,
that wears her heart on her sleeve
Not expressing what's in it....
is something I just can't do, won't do
and can't conceive
For me..........truly,
it's not about the small things...
and its not about what people might think of me.
Its about the feelings my actions or reactions,
leave in the very heart of me.

Each time we choose to mask the truth
for whatever reason we may feel the need...
Each time we feel we need excuses...
in our hearts we plant a seed......
And bit by bit something grows
that eats away at the love we feel...
and bit by bit we loose the closeness
and what we wanted to be real

Funny that....
But it's no mystery....
Being "real" more often than not,
does not mean what we want it to be
I can't be sorry for all I am or all that I could not be...
I need to be at peace with my soul
and still remain uniquely..
just me.
I've come too far
I've seen too much.
For real! And truthfully,
I can only give as much as I receive.....
Anything less;
just doesn't do it for me..

From my heart.....respectfully..

Jamaica....

A land of endless winding rivers
that sparkles in the sunlight..
A land of see through clear waters..
balmy, laid back.... and wondrous nights.

A land were the feeling of warmth spreads through you..
and it's not only from the yellow bright sun..
but from the hearts of people you meet,
that makes you feel as one.

A land that's beauty heals your heartaches,
and rids your soul from all that's ugly and vain...
where the drum beat echos from every mountain
and reggae music warms the blood in your vein.


I love Jamaica....
I love its warmth
Its color
Its people
Its simplicity.
I love Jamaica....
I love its spirit
It's heart
It's soul
and the way it makes me feel free...

Peace, Love and Blessings to Jamaica....for eternity..

Faith and Spirituality
imikimi - Customize Your World!



Why does it matter what I wear?
If I do or don’t cover my hair.
If I follow Jesus, Moses or Mohammed
I think these men would be offended..
If they knew of the divide that has been created
When all they brought was, words generated...
By the one and same higher power…
When all they wanted is to shower…
Humanity; with common goals
This earth; with peace loving souls

We all should just try to be
We all should ultimately see
That we all are in this earth “together”
Under one “human beings” banner
Our faith does not give us superiority
Over other beings in humanity
Contemplate…. our commonality….
Realize! This is the reality!

There are those who are all about rift and pain
Whose agenda is their own pockets and gain
Who don’t care about my children or yours
Who are out to create fear… and make us foes…
At the end of the day....who really knows???

Leave judgment….. to judgment day
When He who can…. will have His say
When, and I hope it won't be too late,
When we all will realize...
That we are all the same……. In HIS eyes
The only thing deciding our heaven or hell
Is how, through life, we treat our fellow men….

If we tried…. I know we can..

Respect, Tolerance, Peace



How Can I?...

Our Book Of Love

imikimi - Customize Your World!



I can create in my mind, a land of
imagination and fantasy.
I can immerse my senses in songs…
that fill my being with harmony.
I can rouse and excite my heart,
till it’s beating like a drum inside..
Yet from this emptiness without you
I can’t seem to find a place to hide.

I can stand up for justice & peace,
against the toughest & strongest might..
I can labour to achieve anything..
through endless days and nights.
I can speak and write words…
that can soothe and heal…
Yet I can’t find the words to tell you,
how you make me feel.

I can climb the highest mountains…
as high as the sky above.
I can swim the widest oceans…
raging with the wildest storms.
I can contend with burning heat..
And shiver through freezing cold..
Yet I can’t endure not having you
To love and to hold..

I can feel the turmoil inside me
Slowly building up…
I can pray to God to guide me
And hope that, that’s enough
I can ignore the need to see you
And the questions in my mind…
Yet I can’t stop myself from wanting...
to be there
by your side.

You touched my heart...

Today, I find myself at a place where my optimism and faith for better days to come, is not just a dream or fantasy I wrap around me to be able to endure what life throws my way. Today, I can truly see the light at the end of the tunnel…..


A year ago at this time, my life was overcast with a fog of pain, confusion and despair I've never felt before. Thinking back, at that time, I hoped and prayed, but never could imagine that I could ever feel at peace again. But I am now....and I could not have made it here without the care and help of many wonderful human beings in my life.


Those, who are of my flesh and blood, from whom, even though the love and care is expected, it is always appreciated. Those who happened to be simply passing by my journey, decided to stop for a minute to say hello........stayed a while to listen..... reached out to ease my burden......

This is for all of you, just to say; thank you!

My gratitude and endless love for each and everyone who in their own special way, have reached out to show me care, have given me strength, inspired and motivated me to keep going, filled my days with love..... and forever touched my heart….

 

 

To my children,

To my mom and my sisters

To my family and my friends



Thank You

 

For the strength….

 

Through the times when my soul was weary,

 

My heart was aching,

 

And my whole being felt only pain....

 

Through the times when my mind was frozen,

 

My willpower gone,

 

And all my attempts to stay strong...was in vain

 

 

Thank you

For the motivation and inspiration....

 

Through the times when I let despair creep in..

 

and allowed hope to fade away…

 

When reason and sanity were distant emotions..

and dread seemed to follow me,

 

each and every step of the way.

 

 

Thank you

For the love..

 

Through the times when I needed it most

 

to keep my head up and keep going..

 

and not let my soul fill with bitterness..

 

Through the times when I needed to understand

 

That love is the only thing that’s important

 

To have and hold...to triumph

 

over anything in this wilderness.

 

 

I love you

and

I wish you..

 

Strength;

when you are feeling weak

 

Inspiration;

when you feel like giving up

 

Motivation;

when you feel like letting go

 

Love,

 

To fill your heart,

 

To warm your life

 

And forever hold you up!

 


 

 

THANK YOU!

About me

I am a person who appreciates life, my family, my friends and all humanity. I have great faith in God and truly beleive that everything in life, happens for a reason. I try my best to treat people as I would like to be treated. My respect extends to everyone. Big or small. Young or old. I'm on this planet to make some friends, share my thoughts and maybe learn something new.


My aim in life

To be true to myself, no matter how hard it may be.
To be surrounded by love as far as I can see
To contribute "good" and hope it comes back to me
To never have to judge or be judged
Just live life to the best of my ability

 

 

 


What I believe
I believe in the good of people, untill they prove me wrong
I believe that in life you reap what you sow and I try to get along
I believe there's nothing to regret in life, if you know you've done all you could
I believe in being true to my heart and standing up for what I should
I believe I'm a person of faith, but religion for me is the matter for ones heart
I believe it should never be used to keep us together or apart
I believe that in love I always give all that's in me
My heart and mind are open
I believe that what is meant to be, will be

ON LIFE  

People do not seem to realize that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

 

Don't duck the most difficult problems. That just ensures that the hardest part will be left when you are most tired. Get the big one done - it's downhill from then on.

  Norman Vincent Peale

  

 

There are two primary choices in life;

to accept conditions as they exist,
or accept the responsibility for changing them.

Denis Waitley

 

 

ON JUSTICE & PEACE  

 

I have no idea if world peace is attainable, but aiming for it is.”
     Stockard Channing

“Speak out for justice and peace, even if your voice trembles.”

 

If it were proved to me that in making war, my ideal had a chance of being realized, I would still say "no" to war. For one does not create a human society on mounds of corpses.
Louis Lecoin

 

What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty and democracy?
Mahatma Gandhi

 

 

 ON LOVE, DREAMS & HOPE

 

 

 

 

 You must love yourself before you love another.
By accepting yourself and fully being what you are...
your simple presence can make others happy.

 

Jane Roberts

   

The four hardest tasks on earth are neither physical nor intellectual feats, but spiritual ones: To return love for hate; to include the excluded; to forgive without apology, and to be able to say 'I was wrong.'
