With happiness my heart if filled

Beautiful smile, courageous smile
You never give up, never leave
A helping hand you always give
A smile with love always there

Drops of Rain

As the drops of rain fall
The peace inside of me grows
Calmness fills my heart
Happiness is known
 
Drops of rain that fall
Wash away my sadness as you go
Fill me with a sense of worth
Make happiness be known
 
Rain that brings life to the world
Wash me and make me anew
Fill me with a sense of joy
Come and let happiness be known

Coffee, My friend

As the morning arrives
I look for you, my friend 
The one who gives me peace
The one who makes me be

Without you I am nothing
Without out you my mood is wrong
Without you people avoid me
Without out you I am not whole

Coffee, my friend you are
My one and best support
The one who gives me strength
The one who makes me whole

God’s Love

Lord in my darkest time you are my flickering light
Lord in my despairing moments you are my hope
When my knees are weary and weak you send your angles to lift me up
In times of despondent and loneliness you send your Holy Spirit to give me life once more.
When I run out of ideas, you send many
When I complain of overwhelming problems you pointed me to your cross
When the battle is hard and knowing I am lost, you send your soldiers to fight with me
When laughter seems far off
You shine your face upon me
When I feel I am unloved you reminded me that your love is greater and unending
Reminding me always that your awesome love is shown as you die on the cross.
You save us and you want us to be victorious in our adversities.
There should NOT be complaining, but thankfulness of what wonderful Lord you are.

Moods


Mood is like a swing
It swings back and forth
It is like a see saw
It goes up and down
He who loses control of its fury, fails
He who controls its anger conquered the greatest foe within

 
We can choose to be sad or happy
We can choose to be kind or generous
We can choose to practice patience
We can choose to be pessimistic or optimistic
God gives us the free will to do things, but we are given guidelines to follow
It is up to us to decide which to follow

We may encounter hardships but going through it
Has its own prize only we keep doing what is right.
Never stop doing what is good but it starts in our mind
When we think of good consequently good deeds come into place.

The Valley

Life is like a valley
There is downhill and uphill
But amidst to it is a flat surface
Life never stays the same
But is goes with the fickle world

There may be a stormy weather
There may be inundated of flood
We may be dissuaded of the adversities
We may think that there is no more tomorrow
Our desperation is empowering us

Hold onto the truth
Hold onto the serenity of hope
Hold onto the bravery and courage
Hold onto the serenity of the beauty, it brings
Hold onto the prayers in our hearts

We can conquer the world
The rainbows are always be there
Look up there!
He will never leave us
The quest for our destiny will come on His ways.

Thought of the day: Be the best version of yourself

While I was growing up, I believe I was about 10 or 11 years old. I remembered my dad used to admonish to his children the importance of education.  He used to tell us that going to school was essential because you acquired knowledge. He told us that he did not have any wealth for his children to inherit, but he and mom could pay for school to get a college degree. He believed that education was the only he and mom can give to his children. He added that no one can take away from you the education you attained. It is always with you wherever you go. So think to be the best version of yourself. Assess yourself as to how you can be the best version of yourself. If getting a degree is what it takes then go for it. It does not matter how old you are. Have a goal and plan to achieve it. God wants us to go higher than being a mediocre. He wants us to be the best of ourselves. We can always seek His help to be the best person, He wants us to be.

Always keep in mind that you can strive to be the best out of yourself.

The Eyes of Heart

The eyes are the windows of the heart

Through the eyes you can see how the heart feels inside

What is inside the heart will be spoken through the mouth

The heart can feel the love

Let love flow and flourish

Let the action of love exhibit

So that people may appreciate and believe how great is LOVE…

Let God control your eyes

So that you may see the beauty of His paramount creations

Let God control your mouth

So that your mouth will only speak of love and encouraging words

Let God control your heart so that your action will be filled of righteous deeds

Let God control your mind so that it is full of wisdom

Then your judgement of life will of God’s ways

And let God’s love flow to you through you then unto others

Let God open your heart and mind so that you may have love like Him.

Welcome to Our Corner!

Welcome to our corner, filled with stories from our family that we want to share with you all. We have short stories, poems and even the thought of the day. It is our hope that as we write we will continue to grow and improve.

Why do we want to do a blog? This is a question that we have heard from anyone who we have shared our idea, and to be honest we even asked each other that question.

The answer is not very complicated, we just love to write. One day after dinner we started to talk seriously about this. We had entertained the idea of writing a book as a collection of short stories and poems from our family, but we never put it into practice. But then the idea of a blog came.

We decided that this is something that we could do. We could share what we love and get more experience, which lead us to our first blog.

We hope that you enjoy our stories and come back for more. Thank you for joining us in this wonderful new experience.

We hope that you enjoy them all. Feel free to leave some feedback and suggestion. Enjoy this ride with our family.
