Pieces of Me

When one loves another with their whole heart sometimes it goes unnoticed. When love comes from one's whole heart, it is pure love, honest love. As I sit and listen to "Stay" by Surgarland, I asked myself, "How can one show they love with their whole heart?" And I thought to myself, "Its hard to show." Loving with your whole heart, in this day and age, comes with fear of getting hurt or betrayed. Only one person can have your whole heart, just one. But to be one who is stuck between two loves, one or the other or even both don't want to live that kind of life. Sooner or later, one will move on and live a life without begging. Life goes on. However, the whole heart is so precious. Its not love that drives one to fight to stay, but its the whole heart. A cheater's heart, is never whole, it's always partial. A committed heart, is always whole. And love runs deeper into the soul. The whole heart, does not come from th...

This is a prayer. A prayer for all who are suffering and in pain. Let it be known that someone is waiting for you, to call upon him. This is a prayer. A prayer for all wishing to live freely without oppressions. Let it be known that someone wants to  set you free, just look up. This is a prayer. A prayer for all who feel in the dark and there is no light. Let it be known that someone is shining a little light your way, lift your eyes and look up. This is a prayer. A prayer for all who feel lost and confused. Let it be known that someone is asking you to leave your ways behind and join him. This is a prayer. A prayer to all who are greedy and selfish, who have forgotten what life truly meant. Let it be known that someone is asking you to love equally. This is a prayer. A prayer for all families going through tough times. Let it be known that someone is waiting to lend a listening ear, get down and pray. This is a prayer. A prayer for the brokenhearted. Let ...

Many times we envision a brighter future not only for ourselves but for our children.  Without thought, we forget the struggles that we ourselves have gone through and forget about the struggles our children will have to face in the near and upcoming future. As parents we all want our kids to have a carefree childhood, a childhood that is filled with happiness and joy and a family that cares.  I understand as adults we may not always be able to see eye to eye on everything, however, we must learn to put aside our difference and show our children how to be civil and find a common ground without having to fight or argue or blame one another for a mistake that anyone of us are capable of making.  There is a lesson our children must learn when it comes to decision making, there is never a clear line between what is right and what is wrong.  Sometimes we go with our guts, sometimes we go off personal experiences and sometimes we go off of fear.  We can be wrong or ...

As I am browsing for Holiday music and this one fell into my play list. It's a song from Joseph to Jesus. It's a beautiful song. Joseph acknowledge that our Father in heaven was his son's Father regardless of how Jesus came to be biologically. God always comes first. To all the fathers out there, your son or daughter will always be your child with God's blessings. :-) Enjoy the song.

If you are one of the few people who suffer from nerve wrecking pain in the back, hips and legs as the season starts to turn cooler, what do you do for pain management? The last week alone has been unfortunately painful for my hips and lower back.  I was giving strong medicines, but they make me constipated and tired.  I have naturally applied heat to the area and even soaked in Epsom Salt for about a half hour or more. I do not want to take any narcotics due to bad interacting with my digestive system.  I cannot go to a chiropractor or an acupuncturist, which sucks, because those are completely alternative I would like to have.  But my insurance does not include such practices under my insurance plan.  Instead as the only alternative to get this pain under control is to go through Physical Therapy. Now if you have been to the PT, you know the first day they assess your case, evaluate your posture to pin point any uneven or off balanced parts.  Whatever...

This is my song for the holiday seasons. A simple little message, A Place to Call Home. Not many around this time have a place to call home. So embrace your love ones and your family.

In recent weeks, I have been speaking to a very few of my close friends about dealing with family situations.  I have been thinking about how everyone goes for themselves these days and families falling apart.  My mother always said to go for yourself, my grandmother said the same thing and quite a few others have said it as well. Now that we live in an era where divorce rates are high, people getting married for all the wrong reasons without thought, a strong family structure isn't what it used to be.  One of my male friends who I've known for almost ten years, hurt himself because he doesn't deal well with group or family living situations well.  He left one place to live with his parents, only to find out he want to return back to the crowded living space where he was a danger to himself and others originally.  He still believes he is a danger to himself and others around him.  What he does, he keeps all his issues bottled up, he blames his parents for...
