To Dream of Hope

"We dream of hope, we dream of change, of fire, of love, of death. And then it happens; the dream becomes real, and the answer to this quest, this need to solve life's mysteries, finally shows itself like the glowing light of the new dawn.

 

So much struggle for meaning, for purpose. And in the end, we find it only in each other. Our shared experience of the fantastic and the mundane.

 

The simple human need to find a kindred. To connect. And to know in our hearts...

 

That we are not alone!" ~ Heroes

A Conversation With God

Me: God, can I ask You a question?

God: Sure…

Me: Promise You won't get mad...

God: I promise.

Me: Why did You let so much stuff happen to me today?

God: What do u mean?

Me: Well, I woke up late.

God: Yes

Me: My car took forever to start.

God: Okay!

Me: At lunch they gave me the wrong sandwich & I had to wait.

God: Ahaan!

Me: On the way home, my phone DIED, just as I was going to pick up a call.

God: hmmmm!

Me: And on top of it all off, when I got home all I wanted to do was to soak my feet in my new foot massager & relax, BUT it wouldn't work!!! Nothing went right today! Why did You do that?

God: Let me see, the angel of death was at your bed this morning & I had to send one of My Angels to battle him for your life. So, I let you sleep through that.

Me (humbled): OH!

GOD: I didn't let your car start because there was a drunk driver on your route who would have hit you if you were on the road.

Me: (ashamed): Ah!

God: The first person who made your sandwich today was sick & I didn't want you to catch what they have, I knew you couldn't afford to miss work.

Me (embarrassed): Oh, okay!

God: the reason your phone went dead was because the person that was calling was going to give a false witness about what you said on that call, I didn't even let you talk to them, so you would be covered.

Me (softly): I see…

God: Oh and that new foot massager you bought.

Me: Yes?

God:  It had a shortage that was going to throw out all of the power in your house. And I know you don’t like being in the dark.

 Me: I'm Sorry God.

God: Don't be sorry, just learn to Trust Me.... in all things, whether you considered them to be Good or Bad.

Me: I will trust You.

God: And don't doubt that My plan for your day is Always Better than your plan.

Me: I won't God. And ummmm, all I can say is Thank You? Thank You for Everything you did today.

God: You're welcome child. It was just another day being your God and I Love looking after My Children...

Whispers of a Soul

“I love you”,

And

“Thank you” he said…

Grateful for every breath, as he lay every night in bed,

For once Lego blocks filled his heart with hope,

 There were days when it was just to cope.

Words unsaid, desires unfulfilled and feelings unexpressed,

“Why are we always in a rush”, never to say, but just a hush.

   13 Years had passed, he simply felt trapped.

“13 Years!” she shouted,

“Why can’t you just die”

“I love you”

And

“Thank you” he said, unable to cry.

With white walls and coats, he had spent his life.

Trapped inside his mind with strife.

It was time for them to say their goodbyes,

He wanted to tell, but only with his eyes.

“I love you”

And

“Thank you” he said….

For 13 Years they were mere whispers in his head. 

“A story straight  from a hospital bed”

M.A.D's Thoughts

Humanity has by far lost itself in the abyss of total chaos. Our souls stained by greed, like the apron of a cook working at the diner, at the corner of the street.

Never to be found, never to be understood. To trudge aimlessly is what this mind is good at... 

Search For 'Self'

"And as the search for “self” continues, we look for answers everywhere, whether it be in nature, in God, in tiny tragedies that may never be understood. But still, we’re driven to it, single minded on one goal to find our purpose on this earth. No matter what the ramification, the friendships that may be hurt or the deals with the devil, we need to make……"~ Heroes

The Traveler

 

 

In every journey, the traveler must ask "was the right path taken?" Many roads along unwinding filled with those that have lost their way. Some forge their own course guided by faith, seeking out a location for a kindred spirit.

Others step together finding safety in the arms of another, a few remove themselves from the trail to avoid the path of temptation, but those who watch the track too closely fail to see where it led them and are often too surprised by their destination.

A Child is Born to Innocence

"A Child is born to innocence, a child is drawn towards good, why then, do so many among us go so horribly wrong? What makes some walk the path of darkness, while others choose the light? Is it will? Is it destiny? Can we ever hope to truly understand the force that shapes the soul? To fight evil one must know evil. One must journey back through time and find that fork in the road. Where heroes turn one way and villains turn another" ~ Heroes
