Reflection


Today I’m reflecting on life. As I grow in age it has always been my desire to grow in wisdom and knowledge as well.  I enjoy looking back, and being able to reflect on the things of the past.  It is important to me that I have an awareness of where I am now, a comprehension of where I want to be, and a realization of where I should be.
In reflecting I want to be able to look in the mirror at the person staring back, and really know who she is, and how she became to be.  My walk is and has been very guided, by a God that is ever present.  Have I always listened and followed? No. That’s why self reflecting is so important to me; because now when I take a glimpse in the mirror, I see a woman that was once a princes, with many bumps and bruises from being disobedient, but when I look closer, I see a beautiful backdrop, in the image of a woman that is now a queen that has way more sub-dermal beauty marks than bumps and bruises; because I am a Child of God.

Marvel in Time.


“Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away, Now it look as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday

Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be, There's a shadow hanging over me
oh, yesterday came suddenly

Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play, Now I need a place to hide away
oh, I believe in yesterday”
- originally recorded by The Beatles for their 1965 album Help!


Sometimes I wish for Yesterday; but what I yearn for the most is a silhouette of a brighter tomorrow, with a call of yesterday.  Sometimes I don’t want to forget yesterday. Sometimes I need to forget yesterday.  Sometimes I have to forget yesterday, to bring on my tomorrow.

Time



“Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives” –NBC Television Network
 Individually, yet rapidly, days of our lives fly by, and sometimes without us noticing how fast time is really passing by.  It’s March of 2011 already! It seems as if it was just Christmas; yet summer is the season that’s peeking around the corner at us.
Time waits for no one.  It certainly is not waiting for me.  I woke up a few weeks ago, and I was 45.Where did the time go? It eluded me and my plans; for it had a plan of its own.
So in an effort to beat time's ass in this race that time started, I’m going to stand still more, watch more, listen more, exercise more,  I’m  managing my own time better, I’m saying I love you more, I’m making wiser decisions, and I’m enjoying life more.  These are just a few things of mine that I’m taking away from time.
