New poem

 I might change a few things in this poem, wrote it in about 10 minutes.

Hold'em... or its over.

When i look in the mirror i no longer see
the girl that used to look back at me
i often wonder who she is these days...
and why she isn't the same.

Silence and solitude has broke her down
the smile she wore has turned upside down
her heart is no longer used for love anymore...
its now just a chip in the game

My jokes are not as funny as they used to be
my laugh is annoying in his eyes, i see
my body seems to turn him off these days...
i guess i'm not his kind

What went wrong in the last few years
i don't bitch, do drugs, or cry many tears
I had a baby, gained weight, and cut my hair...
maybe that changed his mind

I'm no longer wild and i'm not hard to get
the hand is all over and hes won all bets
he knows where i'm at all hours of the day...
well, thats all about to change.

Well, i won't be sitting home anymore
gettin a sitter for the kids and hitting the door
its now too late to win back my heart...
i guess you should learn to hold em.

Don't jump all in when you get a flush
theres another hand that can call your bluff
when the queen of hearts shows up for another king...
thats when the game is over.

The power of prayer

 We were taught, as kids, to pray for things the we want to see, have or what we want to turn out. So many prayers seem as though they go unanswered but God will only grant you what you see yourself worthy of. Imagination is a powerful thing. Everything we see that was built by man started in a mind first, a dream, or a desire.  God is our father. If I wanted to give my child something they longed for and they turned their head in shame as though they were not worthy of it, it would break my heart. How would I know they really needed it if they didn’t ask for it or seen themselves worthy of having it? Turn to your father, ask for forgiveness, not just because you have done wrong but ask for forgiveness that you feel the shame inside, the regret, the missed opportunities that you gave up. Ask for forgiveness that you never had faith that God was leading you all long and you ignored the blessings because someone told you that you weren’t worthy. Know your worth and give thanks t...

Everyone wants to be rich...Just another complaint session..ha ha

I was watching  " How'd you get so rich" and it got me thinking....ha ha..here I go again thinking.  I really don't think I would want to be rich...yeah maybe have a little extra money to play with, but to be a millionaire or billionaire...no!!  In order to be rich you would have to take money from someone else, like people  who are hard working, living paycheck to paycheck, or people paying for something they will never really own. The Lottery for instance...some people spend several dollars a week on the lottery in hopes to be rich, or just a few dollars richer...they (lottery) are making a killing off of that few dollars a week...The same goes for these gambling places...People spend their whole paychecks on a machine!!! They are not stupid!!...you can't get rich from those machines...but I'll guarantee that they are getting rich from your hard earned money!!! The $100-$200 pair of jeans...come on people don't tell me you spend that on jeans?? ...

I Miss Me!

 It's been almost 6 years since I last wrote about anything.  So much has happened since then.  I love to write, not saying I'm a novelist, (one of my unrealistic goals), but to me, it's the same has having a conversation. I love to talk... about life, dreams, the unknown, how life works and why things happen or exist.  I really enjoy figuring out complex behaviors or solutions to ailments.  Long story short...I think I just enjoy learning and understanding.  Somewhere in the past, I left myself behind.  Who am I now? where did the old me go? why did I change? I would describe my inner self as caring, funny, creative, artist, crafty, fun, talkative, loved to dance, write, talk to anyone kind of woman.  (... that word alone makes me feel old...but 'girl' is too young and "lady" is too proper to describe me lol...Ugg) anyway... I was that person, not so much anymore. I tend to shy away from being outgoing to more reserved or "shadowed" is a better ...
