IMAGINE

Imagine we’d never began
Imagine we’d never continued our course
Imagine I’d kept it all inside
All the aching to keep you warm

Imagine we’d lived without heartache
Imagine we’d kept further apart
Imagine through all that
We’d still be close

Imagine we’d realized the ending
Imagine we’d known it from the start
Imagine affection hadn’t reared it’s tainted head
Just to break both our hearts

Imagine our hearts had never been full of each other
Imagine tears had never taken pieces out
Imagine life goes on
With finding more space inside the dark

Imagine we find others
Imagine they begin to fill us more than from the start
Imagine we really are happy
With more love than ever before

Imagine life goes on living
Imagine love keeps on growing
Imagine hearts keep on enduring
All the strains that we induce

Imagine life with promise of newness
Imagine life with promise of hope
Imagine life still rejoicing
With greater and stronger love

Deepest Fears

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
We ask ourselves 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous?'
Actually, who are we not to be?
We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
Taken from a "recent" movie. Thought that it really is fitting to how we all can keep ourselves from the goals we all strive so desperately to achieve. Keep reaching and never letting ourselves get in our own way.

Mind Wanderings

Have you ever wondered why it is that we continue to do the things that we know don’t make us any better? I hate the thought of me continually trying to get approval that I really care nothing for. Yet I always continue to search and try and reinvent and pursue all the approval of people that I think of as intellectuals. Who really makes anyone an intellectual? Are people just born with an innate sense of being able to enunciate their thoughts or do they continually strive as well? I wish that it were easier for people to just accept others and their own perceptions without judging. What makes someone be able to decide that they know anything about anyone? Each of us believes and craves to believe that we have something special that no one else can attain, right? Why is that? Jehovah did make each of us special and unique but in this system of things it’s more important to be part of a unity and a loving one at that than it is to be "special". Yes we all need to have our own important sense of self, but wouldn’t that be better put to use by us loving and caring for our brothers and sisters than in our judging of them? NE who, this is my angst on my life. I crave to be accepted by so very many and hate that I do, yet can’t shake that desire. My wish for myself is that I get over it, to put it simply. To have self confidence and self assurance isn’t that what we all want yet some seem to fake so very well. Ah to truly have that self belief.
