When we make the mistakes in life, is just saying 

"Oh well, we are here to learn" good enough!

Perhaps correcting our mistakes

is a way we learn!

You can live three weeks without food.

You can live three days without water.

But you cannot live three minutes without hope.

Index

 

Some think they can buy me,

others say they can nay find me,

Some fall in and out with me, while

others, associate hate with me!

 

But, I belong with hope, not hate,

And bring no fear, nor negativity,

I am truer than your finest instrument,

I am yours to own, and better shared.

 

I am not hard to find and belong to all,

And not just the property of mankind,

I am the energy that makes the whole,

the eternal light that burns deep within.

 

To deny me, is to lose me,

To give me, is to find me,

The more that I am shared,

The closer the whole will become.

I am Love

If you think you are beaten, you are;

If you think you dare not, you don't;

If you'd like to win, but think you can't,

It's almost a cinch you won't.

 

If you think you'll lose, you're lost,

For out in the world we find

Success begins with a person's faith;

It's all in the state of mind.

 

Life's battles don't always go

To the stronger or faster hand;

They go to the one who trusts in Life

And always thinks "I can."

There are unexpected places
Beyond perspective, beyond time
Where angels leave no traces
And grief becomes sublime

There is a world of violet light
Within our mind, within our heart
Where spiritis take final flight
And sorrow can depart

There was a sound so soft and still
Close as a whisper, close to death
Where healing heart brings goodwill
And inner light takes breath

There are no sobs, nor wailing songs
Above the clouds, above the stars
Where nature's lamplight belongs
 And wind's sweet chime afar

There's a place of sound and vision
Whose aura beckons, whose colour smiles
Where thoughts avoid collision
And indigo beguiles.

It's nice to be important, 

but more important to be nice.

Keep me from the fatal habit of thinking

that I must say something on

every subject and on every occasion.

 

Release me from craving to straighten out

everybody’s affairs.

With my vast store of wisdom,

it seems a pity not to use to all, but you know Lord that

I want a few friends at the end.

 

Keep my mind free from

the recital of endless details;

give me wings to get to the point.

 

Seal my lips on my aches and pains.

They are increasing, and love of

rehearsing them is becoming sweeter

as the years go by.

I dare not ask for grave enough to enjoy

the tales of others’ pains, but help me

to endure them with patience.

 

I dare not ask for improved memory,

but for a growing humility

when my memory seems to clash

with the memory of others.

 

Teach me the glorious lesson that

occasionally I may be mistaken.

Keep me reasonably sweet;

I do not want to be a saint –

some of them are so hard to live with –

but a sour old person is one of

the crowning works of the devil.

 

Give me the ability to see good things

in unexpected places. And talents

in unexpected people.

And, give me O Lord,

the grace to tell them so.

It was summer when you left me

With winter in my heart

The leaves are showing autumn now

So it's time to make a start

I've started buying presents

Wrapping paper with matching tags

They're all quite safely hidden

In various plastic bags

I must go in the loft to see

It the three is still up there

I'm nut sure how to put up your steps

Perhaps I'll use a chair

I know you're watching over me

Doing things in my own way

It's not the way you'd do it

But I'll get things done 'ok'

I wish I'd taken more notice

When we did things together

But I didn't think it important

I thought 'we'd' be forever

You always did the garden

Kept weeds down with a hoe

I think I'll have to buy some goats

Now the long grass needs a mow.

And painting's to do a door

But instead I got all flustered

And dropped the paid all on the floor

I'm wondering how you did it

Putting Christmas lights up on our house

They're in the garage somewhere

Errr did you ever catch that mouse?

I need to find the lever

For the bonnet on the car

The screen wash needs refilling

What's left there won't do far

I've found it's not that easy

Being a woman on her own

Especially when a man like you

Helped run our happy home.

But I'll tackle every problem

Just you wait and see

Life's taken on new meaning

I'll make you proud of me

And when I get down hearted

When things don't do the way I've planned

I know you'll be there with me

Giving me your helping hand

What is this life if, full of care,

We have no time to stand and stare.

No time to stand beneath the boughs

And star as long as sheep or cows.

No time to see, when woods we pass,

Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass.

No time to see, in broad daylight,

Stream full of stars, like skies at night.

No time to turn at Beauty's glance,

And watch her feet, how they can dance

No time to wait till her mouth can

Enrich that smile her eyes began.

A poor life this if, full of care,

We have no time to stand and stare.

Nothing in life is to be feared,

It is only to be understood.

Look to this day

For it is life, the very life of life.

In its brief course lie all the

Varieties and realities of this existence

This bliss of growth,

The glory of action,

The splendour of beauty;

For yesterday is only a dream

And tomorrow is only a vision

But today well lived makes

Every yesterday a dream of happiness,

And every tomorrow a vision of hope

Look well, therefore to this day

Such is the salutation of the dawn.

If you take off your watch,

you will have all the time in the world.

Close you Eyes

and you will see clearly,

Cease to Listen

and you will hear truth,

Be Silent

and your heart will sing,

Seek no Contacts

and you will find union,

Be Still

and you will move forward on the tide of spirit,

Be Gentle

and you will achieve no strength,

Be Patient

and you will achieve all things,

Be Humble

and you will remain entire.

See through the window,

Look at the light,

Smell the sweet flowers,

See the sky bright,

Shed not the tears,

As you feel I have gone,

Love never leaves,

And my spirit lives on.

 

Talk of me often,

Your words will be heard,

I'll be by your side,

As swift as a bird,

Love life and laugh,

Together we'll be,

On the right path,

As our spirits fly free.

No ones Nobody
