9 requisites for living

There are nine requisites for contented living:

HEALTH enough to make work a pleasure;

WEALTH enough to support your needs;

STRENGTH enough to battle with difficulties and forsake them;

GRACE enough to confess your sins and overcome them;

PATIENCE enough to toil until some good is accomplished;

CHARITY enough to see some good in your neighbor;

LOVE enough to move you to be useful and helpful to others;

FAITH enough to make real the things of God;

HOPE enough to remove all anxious fears concerning the future.

– Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Inspirational thoughts

Where there is great love,
there are always miracles.

A friend

A Friend

Wen trouble comes your soul to try
U love the friend who just stands by
Perhaps there’s nothing we can do
The thing is strictly up to u

For there are troubles all your own
And path the soul must tread alone 
Times wen love can’t smooth the road
Nor friendship lift the heavy load

But just to feel u have a friend
Who will stand by u until the end.

Pass on

Life comes, Life Goes. this and all we know.

But do we see, why it goes.

Friends stay, Friends Leave.

Family is, Family was, is there ever a because?

Why must pass, what is, what was?

Pain it stings, Pain it Bites, Pain it takes away all Might!!

Such a hopeless, hopeless Fight.

What departs, what remains, What does constant effort gain?

What cause is worth more than Pain?

Nothing lasts, NO things Pass.
Nothing has such great Mass!

“”Do NOT FORGET this too SHALL PASS !! ……

You all along

YOU ALL ALONG :

You’ve been here before this place is not new.

Your soul has been broken but you know what to do.

You pick up the pieces and move on with your life.

These spaces of emptiness now leave room for new light.

You have to rely on yourself to get by.

And You cannot do that by wallowing deep into despair

nothing beautiful can begin to grow there.

You must not waste time being stuck in the past

You have to remember the pain will not last.

That chapter is over, it has been written in stone.

There is no way to change it, no matter how much you regret.

Just steer straight ahead and please don’t forget

No matter what happens, there are better days yet.

Don’t get caught up on the past or memories you miss

Don’t sit there and think of all the things that went wrong

You’ve made it this far and that proves you are strong.

Life teaches us lessons we must learn to accept.

A lesson you will never forget.

Now you’ve learned what you needed so take that and run

Run free without weight of the past holding you down

You have found a new freedom and a new depth of love

It was you all along

The person you needed was you to help you become strong….
JmaC….
