Two are better than one, Because they have a good reward

for their labour.

For if they fall, one will lift up his companion.

But woe to him who is alone when he falls,

For he has no one to help him up.

Again, if two lie down together, they will keep warm;

But how can one be warm alone?

- Ecclesiastes 4:9-11

Sometimes I feel like I've been misunderstood as a person.

Yet I don't see the need to explain myself or to clarify anything at all.

I feel, I do & I say what I want.

Like Dr. Seuss once said:

“Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.”

Each brand new day,
brings a new breath of life.
The gloominess has gone away,
brighter days have arrived.

It’s never as bad as it seems,
only what I make it to be.
With greater faith and His Loving-kindness,
better days ahead-now I can see.

My Lord, my God,
with you in me, my life is nothing but glee.

addicted;

Warning: personal rant; may bore you.

I cannot decipher what I’m feeling right now. Turning 21 in a matter of days and honestly I don’t feel the hype. No fancy parties, no pricey gifts. Some say it’s the “coming of age” and others say “freedom”. But I’ve always had freedom so it doesn’t make any difference.

I feel the pressure- the pressure of being an adult. The countless responsibilities and I still feel like I’m not ready. For what- I do not know. I guess as you grow older, people expect more of you; to do more, to know more, to give more, everything-more.

And every birthday, I always want to see a change in myself be it outward or inward. I’m going to be a year older yet I am still so insecure about everything. And I am not displaying the traits I ought to display. I’m so unhappy and disappointed with myself.

Oh Lord…………

Fear imprisons, faith liberates;

fear paralyzes, faith empowers;

fear disheartens, faith encourages;

fear makes useless, faith makes serviceable- and,

most of all, fear puts hopelessness at the heart of life,

while faith rejoices in its God.
