Beautiful sky that it’s always with me,
you never leave me alone, you never have forsaken me,
beautiful and endless sky, you are so full of hope for me.
Every day I wake up and look for your outside,
you give me the strength to get up,
you give me the strength to never give up.
Whenever the day gets tough,
whenever I feel live giving up,
one glance at you and I know it will be ok.
I know that you have been there since the day I came,
I know that you will be with me until the day I leave,
my wonderful and endless sky, the one who gives me strength.

Alone no More
Walking down the road Wondering what is ahead Taking in the sights Moving once again This seems like a lonely road A time with only me No one around to talk to Is this the place for me? A figure in the distance appears My pace becomes faster My mind races ahead will you stay and be with me? I approach you and a smile you give No more my heart feels empty Warm all around me Alone no more shall I be Copyright 2022 Ricardo and JoJo My Unique Stories.com

Gaming at Your Forties, too Old?
Whenever someone mentions a gamer what is the first thing that crosses your mind? A young person who plays games all the time? Maybe on the computer, maybe on the console? But is gaming only for anyone who is in his twenties or younger? How about those same people who grew up playing games, are they supposed to quit once they reach a magic age? Can you be too old to game?
The answer is that it depends on the person, there is no age for gaming the same way that there is no age for watching movies. Games are form that entertainment. Both young and older people can like games and play them. The change can be more on what types of games older people like. Going back to movies, do we still like the same movies that we liked as children or have our likes and dislikes expanded? It is the same with games.
This is why as the kids who used to play games got older the industry took notice and started to make games that would be appealing to them. As the gamers became older the industry grew up with them. Many of these gamers in turn had children of their own and started playing together with them, becoming a family activity.
It is true that as we get older our reflexes change, and for example on a FPS game the older gamer might not be as fast as a younger one, but this does not mean that the games is less fun. Not only that but the older gamer has also experience that he can use to try to compensate for the reflexes of the younger one. Both young and old can have fun together and learn from each other.
In conclusion there is no age for gaming, it doesn’t matter if you are in your forties, thirties or maybe fifties. The important thing is that you have fun playing games. The time that you spend with games might be less as you become older and busy with other activities, but time is the key factor, not age. Continue playing games and never feel like you are too old to do it. Have fun, enjoy yourself.
Being Positive by Choice
Is being positive something you need to think about? Does it come naturally to you? Is it hard to do? The level of difficulty depends on the situation you find yourself in and on the state your mind is in.
It is easier to be positive when everything is going your way. Did you get a promotion or raise at work? Your kid is happy? Did you get a dog or ate your favorite food? In these situations most of the time you don’t need to try hard to be positive. It almost comes naturally, as if the world is your plaything and you are on top of everything.
But, what about when things are not going well? What can you do at those times? Is it worth it to somehow be positive in those moments? Yes, it is both worth it and important. By being positive you can find a way to move forward, a way to start looking for a solution, if one can be found, a way to lower your stress and be healthier. Remember that stress, sadness and negativity can affect your health.
How can you go back to being positive? Try to look for the good points of the situation. Look for how these can help you learn and grow. Don’t let yourself become stuck, find a way to move forward. Talking to friends a family can also help you to overcome it. You might even find that doing a hobby helps you with this.
It is important to remember that there are some situations where you might need some professional help. Thar is ok, the important thing is for you to be able to go back to be happy and positive.
Always remember that you are not alone, even if it seems like the whole world is against you. There is always light at the end of the tunnel. The situation you found yourself in might not be by choice, the negative feelings that come to you might not be by choice, but it is your choice to move forward and if needed to find help to move forward. It is your choice to be positive once again.
Never give up and always move forward wirh a smile on your face.
Today’s Words of Inspiration
Let your mind rest in God
Let your mind refresh in the Lord
And He directs you in the right path.
The Unfailing Grace
Lord in you we put our trust
In our worries and anxieties, our mind will rest upon you.
When we see the huge burden that we carry, and fear overwhelms us In you we find comfort.
You lighten it and we know you carry it with us, so it becomes smaller for us.
Lord send down your assistance, when confusions overshadow
Let the Holy Spirit guide us and show the way
Let no animosity comes in a way, but your peace and joy fill our heart.
Let your wisdom be upon us, so we can walk in life your way
Though your way is narrow and long
There is at the end of this road, hope that you prepared for us.
Along the way is so much unknown, grant us patience
Let no desperation murky the minds we have
Let us stay steadfast and faithful
For you promise to stick with us no matter what
You are the only one who could fulfill and never fail to keep the promises.
