pg.283, Chapter 27 in "My Daily Bread"

Pray:

My God, You desire to make me eternally great. You want me to reflect Your perfection in my daily thoughts, words, &actions. May I begin at long last to be a reflection of Your love in everything I think, say or do. I desire to be patient, kind, thoughtful, helpful, & long-suffering, just as You have been w/me, a sinner. In spite of my selfish nature, I want to love You as You deserve. In all things let me never forget Your wisdom &goodness, so that I may always consider &follow what pleases You. My model in all this is Jesus, Your divine Son. He is the model of perfect charity.

Let me strive each day to become more like Him &less like myself.

AMEN.

(Define: S.M.I.L.E.)S.M.I.L.E. = Spiritually Minded Is Life Eternal -- [from the Book Of Mormon] -- For me, "Spiritually Minded" is: The Way of looking at all situations & events in life just like how Jesus spoke in parables. Spiritually Minded IS a higher level of consciousness of thinking and awareness of being. In my book, Jesus, Confucious, Buddah, Ghandi, Dalai Lama are all examples of highly enlightened and Spiritually Minded people and beings. [mobile post: Nov23,2009 07:30am status: incomplete]

So you think that it's over

Say your love has finally reached the end

Anytime you call Night or day

I'll be right there for you
If you need A Friend..

Time is sure to mend your broken heart
Don't you even worry pretty darlin'
I know You'll find love again

Love is knockin' outside Your door
Waitin' for you

Is this love made just for two
Keep an open heart and You'll find love again I know

Keep an open heart and You'll find love again I know

Poem: Memories of...

This poem was originally posted not long after I wrote it, in my mirrored window blog ( http://bit.ly/poem112804 ).  At some point since then, myspace made several upgrades and changes and the original formatting of my poem was lost.  I am re-posting it with the original formatting as I can best remember where the line breaks all were.  

Good thing I capitalized most, if not each line, lol... I'm just not sure exactly where the double line breaks were.. 

Memories of . . . 

Knowledge is divine
Conceived
Received
With open minds
Open hearts
And open souls
Are those that perceive
By the will of the great one
The plan
The Way
The meaning
The why of things
Occurred
Happening
To come
The future
Revealed
In waves
In pieces
Scraps
Shredded strips of heaven
In visions 
I have had 

Memories dreamed
Gifts hard to cherish
In the form of
Flashes
That repeat
Hauntingly
In my mind
Is my curse
A scene
In purgatory
Of the forsaken and lifeless
Unwanted planet of the lost
Battered beaten
Angered confused
Used abused
Neglected casted-off
Souls

The sound of
A melody
The pattern of the angels
The guardians
The overseers
The messengers
Above all
Eternally patient
Committed guiding leading
Those who still believe
In the eternal one
Draining me
Spiritually

I feel
Tired continuously
Undernourished hungry
Wanting more
But afraid I am
Of things seen I have
I want
It to stop
The searching seeking
Their calling and
Uwe! crying
Out to me
I am needed
I am only one
I am alone
Without you
I cannot be
Here nor there
For my people

***Footnotes:  

-LINE "Uwe! crying" = refers to Biblical *weeping* but with a much deeper sense of MANA
--The final LINE "For my people" = refers to Na Kanaka Maoli and my Hawaiian heritage.
