Wow I got time to write a morning blog, I must really be inspired **chuckles** well this is a continuation of yesterdays blog so if you haven’t read it LESSONS: Ok so we will now pause so that you can read it...go on...scroll and read it, nope not later now..NOW! (HEHEHE marketing skills)
So anyways here we are yesterday as I said the pain was unbearable, big word so I will endeavor to break it down for you,
I was thinking of my aunt, she went to be with the Lord, I say that because I know that such a beautiful soul can only be in heaven, I mean we do serve a just God. She was beautiful when I think of her I think of what Maya Angelou said she said: " A bird doesn’t sing because it has an answer it sings because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song!" my translation of that is simply that we all know our roles and duties and so long as we do what we were created to do, we may not always get it right but we will have tried and we will be in our purpose..She was so nice to us, always caring and all.... (I will stop here but read on I want to tie two issues together)
I was also thinking of a friend of mine who called during before and told me that his brother in law is beating on the sister, painful thought he did not know what to do, and during Sunday live yesterday when the story on domestic violence ran, pain ran through his entire being...( now I tie this two.) you see aunty was sometimes beaten by uncle but she wouldn’t leave, she stuck there for the kids, now before you go off.." no way I wouldn’t do that" " if it was me" on me just chill a while, picture the hurt she had to go through first of all, when she realized that the man of her dreams turned violent, who was this man? What happened to him? Whose fault was it? These are the things that ran through somebody's brain, before you even think of leaving...it hurts. To me it’s like your heart is a paper and somebody just sticking it through the shredding machine...
So allow me to reiterate a few things this morning:
First of all once again "All men are prepared to accomplish the incredible if their ideals are threatened."
I believe this is true, most of the time we see pain as though it was a ball and chain, a shackle that is keeping us down, whether it’s the loss of a loved one, or anything that generally means we are out of our comfort zone, it will cause pain. But reality is that it is in this situation s that you realize just how strong of a character you are, just how far you can go, just what you are worth. I submit to you, DO NOT FEAR PAIN because in life sometimes pain is the fertilizer of ambition, the fuel for creativity and the solution to stagnation. I always like to think this way: when Pressure is applied to coal, a beautiful diamond is the goal" For the record though I think the only time you should lay your hands on your lady is when you are making love ***blush*** or when you are praying for her. Other than it is wrong.
Even though my heart was heavy last night, I woke up with these words ringing in my ear and that will probably keep me through the week:
"While I know myself as a creation of God, I am also obligated to realize and remember that everyone else and everything else are also God's creation."
Think of that and equally remember that: "Words mean more than what is set down on paper. It takes the human voice to infuse them with deeper meaning."

LESSON
What a week! (Yeah I know I say that a lot) but this particular one carries the trophy ***just like Manchester United** (SORRY FOLKS HAD TO RUB IT IN) yeah so anyway this is the week that just had it all, hmmm... notwithstanding that the world was supposed to end...really??? I mean REALLY?? No wait... REEEEEALLLY?? I am not even going to that debate, we came we saw and well...we are still seeing.
I’m writing this particular blog with the heaviest of hearts, I can’t even carry it no more, the pain that I feel is immeasurable, but with it I learn something...(You are probably thinking finally he gets to took, so stop smiling and lets go on)
God gives us gifts, (cliché line you may think, but go ahead and read on) the greatest gift that God can give you is people, and people are rare (don’t think too much just read on) true that, people are rare, think of in a world with billions of people, there are few who understand and get you, including the ones who will meet and fall in love with, and who will complete you. Either way we get gifts from Heaven they arrive sealed and packages and most of them are delivered to us with the notice "FRAGILE HANDLE WITH CARE" and so we base on principles and boundaries without which, we crumble under the weight of pain.
In life's busy schedule, we still find them, like that Gem, mined in the caves, like the Gold found in murky waters, we find them. They exist, they really do but allow me to submit to you a few things, of course I will borrow a leaf from Shiro on her latest blog at: http://shelikessweetthings.blogspot.com/ the things that I have learnt this week:
1. Live and love with no regrets: never regrets anything that you have done in the name of love, you only have one family, one chance, life is not a gamble, life is not a dress-rehearsal, it is the main event.
2. Pain - oh the one that we hate the most, that we are afraid of, we can learn from it and grow: there is always a bigger picture, i guess ( that needs to be drummed into us doesn’t it, it never ever looks like there is one huh?, it’s ok take your time...we are all learning)
3. If you find a friend that you can be yourself with, that you can tell everything, be vulnerable with, and not feel shame, laugh with, cry with, appreciate them and give them priority must most of all, get on your knees and pray for them, whisper something to God on their behalf, they are there for a reason.
4. Rise: from the ashes, from the pain, from the hurt, find strength, God has your back in all you do.
Tonight my thoughts are all over because I am dealing with a very delicate situation have nostalgia, I am happy that my team won, while well... on the other side...i am avoiding tears because, my friend Tony Dianga is here (there i mentioned you, happy birthday by the way bro) Well, don’t you worry about lil all me (Carrots i know you have a different picture of this haha..Literally) next blog will deal with everything...and it will be the best seller.
Thanks for taking the time to read this, I want you to know I appreciate you and may you receive the best life has to offer.
