[Faith.Hope.Love]'s diary
Wow! I guess the 25th of August is still burning your butt, eh, Mr. I Spy, Mr. Ramanjit? I only have 22 red flags linking you together and now here's just one more. Oh but they are all fucking bloody coincidences I suppose. ASSHOLE!! You break your #1 rule!
Well, here's a nice reminder:
"Gifts Are Blessings"
| A Gift is a Blessing, A Blessing meant to share, To touch the hearts of others To show how much we care. God gives us Blessings of Gifts, They're not meant to be wasted, But they can only be fulfilled, When others' hearts have tasted. |

| "Like the owl, you are highly intuitive. You can trust your instincts above all else, and you listen to your inner guide. You can see what others don't or won't see. You see everyone for who they truly are, and that frightens them. You are a natural lie detector. You can see past masks and facades. No one can hide from you. You have a quiet and gentle wisdom. You don't go around bragging about how smart or wise you are. You are good at uncovering potential in yourself and others. You are a catalyst for positive growth and change. You have a lot of creative and dynamic energy. You are focused on all of the possibilities in life." |
"Whooo Are You?"
| If you're bluffing real or being my friend, A word to the wise for those who pretend. I’ll see through your lies, through your fake, All the deceptive measures you’ll take. You may believe you’re fooling me, But that’s your ego by which you see. I’ll watch you build your castle of lies And not say boo, let you surmise That I’m in the dark, that I can’t see, The disguise you’re putting over on me. I’ll chuckle and grin as I watch you, Add more lies to your deceitful brew. But more importantly, I must tell, A tragedy living in you doth dwell. The tragedy is, as you’re lying to me, You’re lying to you but you can’t see. The fool you’re fooling, in the mirror, face, The one looking back is who you disgrace. It is bad to lie to others, to me, But lying to oneself is the real tragedy. Living a lie, built on the same, Is living a life riddled with shame. First with oneself, honest be one must, True and real for thyself to trust, Before with others one can be likewise, Free from the chains of deceitful disguise. So, If to I, to yourself, you cannot be true, Don’t fault me for seeing through you. If the real in you, you cannot accept, It’s your job not mine to intercept, To make adjustments, to upgrade, Cast out the fake, the false charade. Be real, the best of who you are, You then will shine just like a star! When you shine, with Love you’ll glow, You’ll be someone you’ll be glad to know. You’ll need to weave lies or hide no longer, The energy saved will make you stronger To onward remain on the truthful path, Harbouring for self no disgust or wrath. But Love instead for yourself you’ll feel, At peace with harmony about your real. You’ll radiate and shine ever so bright, Attracting others with Love and Light. If you're bluffing real, playing pretend, The one you're hurting is you, my friend. |

"Castle Building"
| Build with bricks of lies Your castle on the sand But when the Waves Of Truth come in, Your castle will not stand. Build your castle on the truth For it is the solid rock And when waves of lies come in, Deceit cannot dock! |

"With words of kindness, generous be;
While words to criticise use sparingly.
Give compliments without hesitation;
Criticise with caution and reservation." ~ #ArtsieladieQu

It would be SO nice IF I could actually have a PRIVATE conversation on MY phone!!!!!!!!!
For all those who don't have the guts to take a stand against another or others YOU know are doing wrong, YOU are as much a part
of the wrongdoing as the wrongdoer is. It's a FACT! If it hurts, well then it's up to YOU to make the adjustments, NOT THE VICTIM!!!

"Compassion"
| Laugh and smile and the world will join you. Cry and lament and the world will abandon you. Drama is always drama when it's someone else's pain, It only becomes real when it hits the home domain. If we took just a little time to look just a little deeper, Instead of passing judgment to appease our apathetic creature, We might be able to help avert another's inner pain, Bring them some sunshine through their pouring rain. This is called Compassion, the world's in short supply And instead of helping others, we simply pass them by, Or we criticise and condemn, adding to their grief, Instead of listening with intent to bring them some relief. We must try not to be too busy for someone in need, Never too preoccupied to hear another's plead. Another's pain can be masked, hidden by disguise, Concealed in their heart, behind 'happy' eyes; Or their pain can be shown in ways we will reject, Often and in ways obscured we will not expect. Many times a person suffering from too great a pain Will attempt to test the waters, trying to ascertain, To see who'll care enough about what they're going through, Genuinely concerned when they ask, "What can I do?" Many put up walls to see who'll care enough To climb over them just to call their bluff. Sharing one's pain can be more painful to disclose, Because of others' judgment, condemnation they impose. There is no greater pain than the pain within. Those without fault have forgotten their own sin. When a person finds the courage to from others' help seek, We must not criticise, make fun, or call them weak. Instead, we must show Compassion, try to understand, The courage it has taken them to seek a helping hand. We may or may not be able to help them or assist, But this doesn't mean that their pain does not exist. That all too familiar, "There's nothing I can do", Excusing one from caring, a convenient exit cue, Is too often put in motion just to circumvent One's lack of empathy of callous heart intent. When others cry for help, express their own despair, Often all they need is to know that others care. A little validation of what they're going through, Can make a world of difference, another's strength, renew. But when with callous heart, a troubled soul's dismissed, It may be the final straw and of death, the catalyst. Oh, this world would be a much better place, If we took a little time to see the heart behind the face, A heart that may be suffering but too afraid to tell, A heart that may be drowning in a painful swell. Take a little time to listen to a heart caught in despair, For you may need the same one day, someone that will care. |

Being an ESP is not easy in this world because there are too many TIP's and THP's. Being a person who tries to be the best you can be, the best of who you are, sensitive to and caring about the woes of others, is an ongoing, uphill battle because of those who will fight you every inch of the way simply because they choose the opposite. It's no wonder most people choose the more traveled and easier road. TIP's and THP's are all about themselves. When they cross paths with a giving and caring person, a person who makes it a priority to be the best of who they are, their vindictiveness
"Pathway Of Truth"
| On the Pathway Of Truth Is where I choose to walk, Where my footing is solid, Darkness cannot stalk. When I walk in Truth, My pathway is well lit, Demons of deceit dispersed, Exposed as counterfeit. Truth is Light; Truth is Love And when I walk in both, I walk with God above. |

| Poet's note: I do not walk the Pathway of Truth alone for the best examples of humanity walk with me. It is not a crowded path but I was never one for big crowds anyway. I walk in the best of company, you, Qazi and Naomi, as the finest of examples and there are others too. I've said this before but it's worth repeating. In life if we care about ourselves at all, we hope to gain the respect of others, and we will if we make a conscious and determined effort at being the best of who we are but when we gain the respect of those who are of the finest caliber of a human being there is, we can then know within ourselves, we are on the right road, that we ourselves have value and worth as well. ..And those who choose to disrespect us, demean us, we needn't be concerned because such individuals don't have respect even for themselves usually. There is no greater validation of one's self worth when we are respected and revered as worthy individuals by those of 'quality of character'. ..And I'm not referring to social status whatsoever. High social status may or may not be present in a person of quality of character. I dare say that very often there are those in the highest of social positions who are selfish and self absorbed individuals and play a major role in what's wrong in our world today and work to keep this unchanged so they may continue to benefit for themselves. On the other hand I've met people who have virtually nothing that I've felt in total awe of, have felt totally humbled to be in their presence. The TRUE value of our- selves lies within our hearts, not in our wallets. When we make a conscious effort to walk on the Pathway of Truth, this choice becomes our 'way of life' and to step off of it becomes foreign to us, unfamiliar, and uncomfortable. We feel 'out of place' off this pathway. It is not an easy road with temptations around every bend but each time we are able to resist and remain on the Pathway of Truth, we reinstate and validate our own self worth, sustaining our courage, strength, and determination to keep on the right road as we move forward. ♥ |
