Striving
What’s the point? she asked. It could be a simple solution, he quipped. With much to do and little to gain, The effort remained unattainable rain. So onward she strove Observed by those who stood beyond the boundaries Doing much and yet ignoring them She left having been a bothersome chagrin. ...

Playing Ball
Curveballs come and they go They exist in mere Fragments of time As they test our consciousness And stretch our faith They provide us with an opportunity to define Who we really are Curveballs come and they go They are not meant To rip us apart As they challenge our focus And strengthen our hope They provide us with a fresh start On a journey of self-renewal Curveballs come...

Imagine
Imagine getting sick of thinking what if. Imagine getting sick of not believing in thyself. Imagine waking up every morning with a goal and a plan. Selah. You work toward your goal vehemently. And that plan you can always modify, but from it you never relent. Selah. God blew His breath, which imbued in every crevice Until our metaphysics lit up. He...

Don't be a football, Thrown and kicked down the field Like rocks of nature; Rather, be a bouncing ball Sowing and reaping life's goals...

As I try to still my racing thoughts, and prepare to rest for the night Everything I didn't accomplish today runs through my mind and I feel defeated Until I realize that I was kind today, I helped more than one person, I smiled and greeted those I encountered Accomplishing a to-do list is great but having compassion and being decent are things that...

Concepts I thought were imperative as a teen Uncalled for, superfluous items often unseen A mansion, movie star status and lots of money Not nearly as important as being called mommy and honey...

A life without goals, Is no life at all, Goals may be for wealth and health, Or simply for the attainment of eternal bliss. Started with a goal to become financially independent, Naturally a nice goal to protect my family from going broke, Adventures in small business, ended up in disasters, Only hard office work...

Memories
It had such a wide variety of sounds, They had echoed through the air, the waves gushing up and down the sand, Me alone laying down on the cold wet sand, like snow you just can't get up you are just in a trance, I want this memory to end, But one look at my mom and all those thoughts come...

Football crazy Exiles u13s 2024 to 2025 season
Football crazy Exiles u13s 2024/25 season They're football crazy, they're football mad, Ipswich Exiles U13s, the best they’ve ever had. With speed and grit, determination true, Strength in all areas, they play to rule. Our top goal scorer, a year younger but bold, His talent and drive, a sight to behold. Week in, week out, whatever the score, These lads bring pride, always wanting more. On the pitch they shine, a...

Seek by commitment the many gifts from heaven, concealed in the recesses of everyone's being. Drink only from the cup of perpetual durance virtuous pleasure, to celebrate every time you decide to make brighter your already bright light....

Carry on Amigo!
Copy cats prowl around Real worth never found work hard, move ahead Keep fit, sloth shed. Big or small tree matters Tiny or large shade spreads Cool breeze calms heads Not result, effort matters. Wings help soar high Touch stars in the sky Birds fly without a sprint With resolve firm as flint. Reach goals acting right Fruits offer real delight! ...

Premium Member Life Beyond the Status Quo
Life Beyond the Status Quo Traveling far, far away from home, Leaving family and friends to roam, Did not expect changes it would bring, To a life feeling apathy’s sting. Had much pity from which to borrow, Saw no bright future in tomorrows, Never thought to make goals or form dreams, Caught in a trap of MUNDANE routines. Thought hiding my distress very smart, Shielding...

I wanted to find myself, so I got lost in the woods, Turns out life’s easier without all the shoulds. The rhythm of steps was a meditation Twelve hours a day in God’s lovely creation. Even when I was tired, wet, hungry and cold I didn't get jaded; nature didn't get old In the south,...

Premium Member the old poets
The old poets haunt me they taunt me from the shadows following every keystroke I type - they’re critical of phrases, they demand narrower themes and mock the very clichés they invented. I remind these frightful spirits of how tenuous life was, how I’m blindly living these experiences, how prevalent desire is, how human it is to chase the things we’re told will fulfill...
