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.

What is your True Fear? Quiz Created on GoToQuiz

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.

This is the last stanza of a love song.
I copied it in one of my books. Enjoy~

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.
