WHAT MADE YOU THINK YOU DESERVE RESPECT?

ALL YOU DO IS LET HER SUFFER.
YOU WANT RESPECT AND YOUR PRIDE.
GO KEEP THEM. I'M NOT STAYING ANY LONGER.

About Love.

Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot,
who calls you back when you hang up on him;
who will lie under the stars and listen to your heartbeat,
or will stay awake just to watch you sleep.

Wait for the boy who kisses your forehead,
who wants to show you off to the world when you are in sweats,
who holds your hand in front of his friends,
who thinks you' re just as pretty without makeup on.

One who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares
and how lucky he is to have YOU.
The one who turns to his friends and says, thats her.

Encouragement Poem.

PERSEVERANCE

Lord, my spirit is willing,
But my flesh is so weak;
God, every day I cry out to you,
Yet I don’t hear you speak.

I’ve been beaten so many times.
You know what I’ve been through;
I can’t overcome this giant.
Yet it’s the only thing I must do.

I fought this trial too many times.
I used all the strength in me;
Yet I lost in every battle,
And once again I’m not free.

Lord, I’m tempted to just call it quits,
And lay here on the ground;
I will let the giant win again.
I have fought too many rounds.

As I am now at my lowest,
Tears flow down my cheeks;
I cry out to God again,
“Jesus, I am just too weak!”

Suddenly I felt my body
Being lifted up by my Lord;
He helped me back on my feet,
And said, “Lets do this once more.”

I stood up to that giant,
And fought as hard as I could;
He used old tactics to make me give up.
Yet he only thought I would.

I was determined to not back down.
I had been here long enough;
It’s not the number of times I get hit.
It’s the number of times I get up.

God is faithful. This poem came so timely.

Let Him.

I won’t ask why I cry today,
It must be the treason.
I won’t ask why I feel sad today,
It must be the season.
I won’t ask why I hurt today,
God must have a reason.

Time.

Tick tick tick tick..

Every second passes by, my mind is still blank.
There are many things waiting for me to do but I have no strength.

The Lord is my strength but my heart is not with me.
What is important and what is not.
How can one be definite?

Something of importance to one may not be of another.
Distractions Decisions.
Oh there are so many!

What is important and what is not.
Do I know or do I not?

Letter to myself.

Dear Charmaine,

Don't Quit.

Don't quit when the tide is lowest,
For it's just about to turn;
Don't quit over doubts and questions,
For there's something you may learn.

Don't quit when the night is darkest,
For it's just a while till dawn;
Don't quit when you've run the furthest,
For the race is almost won.

Don't quit when the hill is steepest,
For your goal is almost nigh;
Don't quit for you're not a failure,
Until you fail to try.

Love,
Charmaine

Heavy Heart.

There are so many negative thoughts within me.
I feel heavy.

Life is so frustrating.

Thank you Lord for your faithfulness which never fails.
For you alone are great and supreme in power.
My strong tower, in the quiet and stillness, I know that you are God.
I lift my heart and soul to worship you alone.
Lord, be my desire. My heart belongs to you alone.
Unfailing love, grace and mercy. Thank you Lord for all these things.

So much for being nice.

Great. SIM card disabled by my tutee.

Being angry at her for too long is pointless.

Besides, she apologised.

A Woman's Question

Do you know you have asked for the costliest thing
Ever made by the Hand above?
A woman's heart, and a woman's life --
And a woman's wonderful love.

Do you know you have asked for this priceless thing
As a child might ask for a toy?
Demanding what others have died to win,
With the reckless dash of a boy.

You have written my lesson of duty out;
Manlike, you have questioned me.
Now stand at the bar of my woman's soul
Until I shall question thee.

You require your mutton shall be always hot,
Your socks and shirt be whole;
I require your heart to be true as God's stars
And as pure as His heaven your soul.

You require a cook for your mutton and beef,
I require a far greater thing;
A seamstress you're wanting for socks and shirts --
I look for a man and a king.

A king for the beautiful realm called Home,
And a man that his Maker, God,
Shall look upon as He did on the first
And say: "It is very good."

I am fair and young, but the rose will fade
From my soft young cheek one day;
Will you love me then 'mid the falling leaves,
As you did 'mong the blossoms of May?

Is your heart an ocean so strong and deep,
I may launch my all on its tide?
A loving woman finds heaven or hell
On the day she becomes a bride.

I require all things that are grand and true,
All things that a man should be;
If you give this all, I will stake my life
To be all you demand of me.

If you cannot be this (a laundress and cook
You can hire and little to pay)
But a woman's heart and a woman's life
Are not to be won that way.

Do you know what is scarier than being alone?

Being with the wrong guy/girl for the rest of your life.

I shocked myself.
I was talking logic and not emotions.

I was devoid of emotions.

Wow.

Thats scary.

I do not fear death!(:(:(:

Disparity.

There is great disparity in terms of wealth in this world.

I am saddened and disgusted.

Some people work so hard just to survive..
Yet others do not have to lift a finger and get what they want.

Omnia sol temperat

Ama me fideliter!
fidem meam nota;
de corde totaliter
et ex mente tota
sum praesentialiter
absens in remota.
Quisquis amat taliter,
volvitur in rota.


Love me faithfully! Mark my loyalty; completely,
in my heart and in my whole mind I am with you
though absent in a far place. Whoever loves in
this way is turned on the wheel of torture.

Gracie's Choice.

Wow. This movie is based on a real story.

Drug addict mother. She's never sober.

The mother has like 5 children - all from different fathers.
The kids do not know who their father is. :/

Gracie is the oldest child. She decided to send her mum to jail coz` the life she's living was like hell.

Her mother did drugs and alcohol - steals welfare money to supply her addiction.

Messed up. But she (Gracie) managed to pull through!
Thank you God for keeping her strong throughout her difficult times.

I don't think I can handle this mess. Her grades were good.

Sigh.. I have such a comfortable life.

Thank you Lord for a family that is stable in my life.
Thank you for my responsible parents.
Thank you for a comforable home so that I don't have to run from places to places.
Thank you for the fixed income that I have for pocketmoney.
Thank you for the food I get to eat.
Thank you for the comfortable bed I sleep on each day.
Thank you for the education I am receiving.
Thank you for loving me and die on the cross for all my sins.

The Love of God.

Ephesians Chapter 3 Verses 17-19. King James Version.

"And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God."


God's love cannot be explained - it can only be experienced.
