MY LOVE STORY
At the time you entered my life
I was dealing with so much strife
I was in so much pain
I didn’t even think I could sustain
At the time we met I wasn’t even ready
To deal with something more steady
We had to take things real slow
If we had any chance for this to grow
You didn’t fuss or put up a fight
You just wanted to make sure I was alright
In time our friendship grew
We had a chance to start anew
I really did not have a clue
That at the time I was so in love with you
I was so afraid to take a chance
To explore our budding romance
So I decided to give you my heart
And you told me that you would never part
You said you wanted to share your life
So you asked me to be your wife
After 14 years of being together
We are headed to making our love last forever
I was dealing with so much strife
I was in so much pain
I didn’t even think I could sustain
At the time we met I wasn’t even ready
To deal with something more steady
We had to take things real slow
If we had any chance for this to grow
You didn’t fuss or put up a fight
You just wanted to make sure I was alright
In time our friendship grew
We had a chance to start anew
I really did not have a clue
That at the time I was so in love with you
I was so afraid to take a chance
To explore our budding romance
So I decided to give you my heart
And you told me that you would never part
You said you wanted to share your life
So you asked me to be your wife
After 14 years of being together
We are headed to making our love last forever

A FAMILY
A family provides a shoulder to lean on.
It is much stronger than krypton.
A family provides the rainbow on a sunny day.
It is the road map to help us find the way.
A family provides us with strongholds and high towers.
It is how we gain so much power.
A family keeps us in perfect peace.
It is something we never want to cease.
A family provides constant prayer from above.
It is how they show their love.
A family provides refuge during the storm.
It is how they usually perform.
A family teaches us dignity and pride.
It is how we learn to abide.
A family teaches us with their support we can’t go wrong.
It is helps us grow up to become big and strong.
Despite the distance set between us,
Despite our good and bad days,
Despite the various textures of our hair,
Despite the different colors of our skin,
Despite the hurtful things we sometime say.
I am, you are, we are …… A FAMILY.

Life's Journey
Life's journey is filled with many ups and downs.
During the midst of it all sometimes we smile and sometimes we frown.
The road often curves to the left and then to the right.
Because of the choices we make sometimes we are wrong and rarely right.
These curves present us with challenges that we must face everyday.
Oh you better believe that they are going to come without any delay.
Sometimes we grow weary in our quest.
While we strive to give it our very best.
Often we choose to give up the fight, because we have to go through so much just to see the light.
Who said the journey was going to be all peaches and cream.
For many of us that is merely a dream.
So we must decide how to cope with the cards that we are given.
They are going to keep coming as long as we are among the living.
Shall we just lay down and collapse as if we are bleeding.
Or shall we fight on and keep on believing.
So rise up and stand tall.
Oh yes we are going to fall.
But knowing that we can rise once again.
To live another day for a chance to finally win.
Our journey as just really begun.
It will start at the rising of the sun.

The Wind
The wind blows so softly against my skin,
I swear I can almost feel it within.
The way it makes me feel,
I sometimes thinks it isn't real.
It's wonders often have me in a daze,
When I think all about them I am totally amazed.
It feels almost like a soft kiss or a gentle caress,
A feeling that I long for nevertheless.
The way it moves so gentle and swift,
It almost seems as though it gives me a lift.
It often sings in a sweet whistling tone,
It comforts me so I don’t feel alone.
The wind blows more strongly during a storm,
I know it doesn’t last so no need for alarm.
I long for the wind to blow for evermore,
Because I know that it has more in store.
I swear I can almost feel it within.
The way it makes me feel,

Because I know that it has more in store.

The Storm
The Storm
It comes without any justification, to utter you much devastation
It is much like a thief in the night, to stomp out your glimmer of light.
It comes without warning or alarm, to do nothing but bring you harm
It comes to greet you ready or not, to act out its fiendish plot.
The storm came in a great big wave; you survived it because you were brave.
The storm caused you much pain; you fought against it because you had much to gain.
The storm came at the wrong time in your life; you fought hard to lessen its strife.
The storm did deliver you some damage, but because you were strong you were able to manage.
The night has fallen and morning has come.
The storm is over and I can see the light.
Next time is comes, I will be ready for the fight.

My Journey
Today I have reached a milestone in my life. I have more years behind me that I may have before me. I do not know what God has in store for me but I know that being able to see forty years is a huge deal. We all can look back and say that we might have a lost a son, a daughter, a mother, a father, a sister or a brother or another. Some of us have reached forty and some of us have yet to get there. If you have crossed this bridge before me than you are truly blessed and if you have not I hope you have the chance to experience this rite of passage.
In my forty years I have experienced great pain and great joy. Great sorrow and great happiness. Great weakness and great strength. I bear many scars both inner and outer during my forty years. I thank God today for allowing me to see forty. My high school yearbook bears this quote that I believe has been a testament on how I lived through failures and through triumphs “Life is something to cherish not to waste, so take every opportunity to succeed and make it great.” Despite it all I still stand tall and my wounds have healed. I look back over my life without any regrets. I would not change the road that I have traveled, because when my road lead me the wrong way I had the strength and conviction to know when to travel another way. I did not settle for mediocrity I pushed on to achieve greatness.
I still have more chapters in my book of life to write. I still have more experiences to encounter. My hope is that through it all I have learned and grown through love, hope and faith. Through my walk I have learned how to be a better a mother, a wife, and more importantly a better person.
I want to thank all my Facebook friends both new and old. I want to thank all my family members who I have reacquainted with. I want to thank all the new family members I have had the esteemed pleasure of getting to know. I want to thank each and every one of you for being a part of my life story and ask that you continue on my journey whether long or short as I strive to continue on the make my mark in this great wo
