Maximize your one and only life.
We only are given one, you know.
However, be vigilant of the Plan;
designed for only you,
during your terrestrial stay.
Maximize your life today.
Each day will be a gift.
Although you may not recognize the lift.
Wait quietly and still;
Careful of every step you make;
Mindful of every breath you take.
Until your life’s purpose is fulfilled.
Maximize your life.
We must learn to live from within
With faith we are never alone
It gives us the inner serenity
especially when we grow old
Be aware of God’s presence within
Like a lighthouse guides the ships at sea
Let your inner light and Wisdom
Guide you through the rough currents that be
Inside of us is the Architect
of all that is our external world
all that is what is and truth
The plan is clear and perfectly designed
Listen inwardly
For every point and measure is defined
No one can alter it
It is the creation of yourself
A work of art
God made us with a purpose in mind
You were created on purpose
for a specific time
Yes, we must learn to live from within
Take time to love
Take time to pray
Take time to nourish your soul
Become the masterpiece
You are meant to be
“Learn to get in touch with the silence within yourself and know
that everything in this life has a purpose.” – Elizabeth Kilsler
Déjà vu?
Perhaps a past life has collided
with my present one,
When I heard someone ask,
“Have you been here before?”
I respond, “Do I know you?”
It answered, “Yes, but you only lived in the present.”
My present life became angry, frustrated.
The questions about life were so many.
It could not remember the Now.
Déjà vu?
“Who are you?”
“I AM!”
Déjà vu?
“Will you be there too?”
“Only if you live with purpose.”
“Is that all that is required? I get it.”
Déjà vu?
“I think I get it. Do you?”
Melba Christie
We all start our journey through life,
with the pitter-patter of our feet.
a milestone most of us meet,
by about the age of one,
all is discovery and so much fun.
But life will take you down many paths
some will be rough and some smooth
some you will hate
some you will love
some created just for you with blessings from above
Each journey a stop but not a destiny
each step purposeful and meaningful
so many lessons to be learned
even when you decide to make a sharp turn.
The journey of life
no one knows the measure
but try to make each moment
one to be treasured.
Affirm life today
Love your life most of all
You are a universe
Life is your instrument
and only you can be the masterpiece
Existence
Where we are
by far
defines our existence.
But where are we really?
Are we here, in the now, in the present?
Or are we not in existence?
Are we in our own imagination?
A figment?
I like to think I am
inside this painting;
going around in circles
without a worry,
the universe embracing me
until I become a wave.
Someone once said,
“it’s not the numbers that count
it’s what happens
at the dash.”
The question is
what to do
so that life
is meaningful
and well spent.
Life happens once
a cry, a sigh, a chuckle
happens within those
precious hours we call life
words flow and make their imprint
Utter the ones that bring joy,
kindness, love and peace
Make your words matter
because life happens just once.
QUOTE TO LIVE BY:
“Life is no brief candle for me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got for a moment and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to a future generation.”
-George Bernard Shaw

You are meant to be
Let Life find you
Let life find you.
To work its miracles
As you learn to grow
A kind and fine heart
So that others feel joy in living.
Let life find you
Living the life
A life that is squeezable
Like a ripe orange
Fresh and juicy
providing pure energy.
Let life find you
looking at yourself
In the mirror
see the magnificence
of His image in you.
Let life find you
Ready to stand up and deliver
Willing if need be
To sacrifice for a cause
live with purpose
Let life find you
Dancing, laughing, and singing
In the rain
Drenched in happiness
and fulfillment
Let life find you
Breathing heavily;
Feeling the warmth of the sun
Caressing your skin.
Feel life happening to you.
Make every minute count
In multiples of ten and then some.
Look at the views
how plentiful
and beautifully designed by
the creator of all.
And inhale deeply every chance
you get.
Watch your chest rise with
each breath.
Notice its perfection.
Listen carefully
to your heart beating away
marking time faithfully.
Let life find you living
as if it were your last day on earth.
Life is too short my friend;
Life is just too short.

Inside me is a profound love
for life itself
Each breath I take reminds me
life is too short
Too brief compared to eternity
And what is eternity?
Who truly knows its measure?
I know my love is forever and
Shall be eternal
I count the stars every night
to make it so
The leaves of grass,
Waves,
Clouds,
They will outlive me
And when I am laid to rest
They will know somehow
I loved their presence
In my life
