SPIRITUAL PRIDE

    Sometimes religious folks will dress in fancy clothes, go to church every Sunday and tithe their ten percent; all the while frowning upon those whom they think aren't as "blessed" as they are. Some even tell us that we are not "saved" because we do not belong to their group or denomination. But is this true religion, are they truly reflecting the heart of the Divine Creator? Or are they turning the house of God into a mere club house for the self proclaimed elite? Jesus said, "by their fruits you shall know them." Thus, if the fruit is not love, acceptance, kindness, gentleness and peace... it is probably just a thorn bush with wax fruit on its limbs. It may look flashy at first glance, but upon further inspection we will see that the whole thing is just an illusion.

WHAT MEMORIES WILL HAUNT YOU IN THE CORRIDORS AT DUSK?

    Imagine a gloomy, old castle; filled with echos of the past and haunted by shadowy specters. A single candle sits atop a dusty fireplace mantle, straining to push back the impending darkness. But the ominous nightfall envelopes all in its path... and you are alone.

THE PEOPLE WHO DON'T LIKE YOU

    Not every person you meet is going to like you. Some may be confrontational, while others will just look at you like you have two heads no matter what you do or say. Others will glare at you or think themselves somehow better than you. The key here is not to buy into the other person's negative projections. Just because someone dislikes you, doesn't mean there's something wrong with you. Perhaps the opposite is true, and the unfriendly person is flawed or damaged in some way. After all, do not those with low self esteem often build themselves up by acting like everyone else is below them or inferior? Such people need your prayers and positive energy, not your hate and dislike. Project healing to them and in turn you will heal yourself.

ISA

    I have been working on some new poems lately... And as many of you know, I like poetry dark, moody and depressing...LOL... Here's one I wrote yesterday, Hope it dims your day :-)

ISA

The world outside my window,

 imprisoned in a chrysalis state.

 Trees weighed down in frosted death

unable to sway in the arctic wind.

 Mountains of white crystal water

 absorb all signs of life-

 the landscape barren and grey.

Cold emptiness seeps through my pores,

 trapping me in an astral plane of regret-

 causing me to live in portraits of the past.

 In black and white strips of time streaked film

I view the dismal images of a broken life.

 Memories frozen in time

 flicker across the horizon;

like pencil sketched phantoms,

 they will haunt me through the dreary days

until the sun breaks through

the ash filled sky.
