Recycle of Source

A dream a real dream is something that you've invisioned for a lifetime. It is the prophetic strength of imagination that influences the spirit to do.
Ones real dream is a physical manifestation of the prophecy playing out in a mental pictoral.
The vision of whatever it is for an individual may start as early as birth and may play as infinitively in ones mind during ones lifetime. Unfortunately if the vision is not persued the individual leaves there vision to the mercy of death.

Often we cannot seem to tap into the right resources to make our vision physical. The reason for this is that perhaps what we see as resourceful is just a mere distraction. Perhaps it is an actual hindurance. Perhaps he that gives us our vision has not included this resource as a part of the divine plan. Such manifestation is exclusive therefore. Not inclusive of what one may want. Remember the plan has already been written. You are not the writer nor illustrator just the vessel of view.

Your vision is yours alone and no one can see it but you and your creator.
We must come to realize that our creator is our source therefore we don't need a resource.

Endurance

It is the toughest of times that present yet the most opportunity to exercise Self-control. When life seems to cast a never ending shadow of fear, doubt, and insecurity recognize that this is a pre-antidote to our hearts true desire. I have learned that feelings are not facts. They are just feelings.

Thoughts contribute much to the taunting emotions during our times of trial and tribulation. If we ponder a situation too much it can lead to some major problems and complicate that which is simply a process that we must go through to get to the success that we desire.

Follow...

No need to look no more
he has opened up the door
your journey be sure entails
an end that is forever more
eternity that is
the business he's in
it's simple
follow him you win
don't just bathe in sin
seek refuge in the bosom of him
let him guide your steps
make you reach depths
never foreseen for you
how will you hold
the pounds of gold
he has in his plans
use your hands
to build his kingdom
and your kingdom
will come
in your building
be of a serving mind
smile and have fun
while giving remember
to keep your mind
steadfast on his ways
remember that his ways
are not your ways
his thoughts
not your thoughts
remember
his eyes are watching
your heart
use it to utter your request
of his holiness
stay faithful in your request
you shall be blessed
rebuke all temptations
the sensations of Christ
lack euphoria
his promises
will set you to walk
on water
he wants to take you higher
he is the Messiah
the alpha of the omega
the omega of the alpha
who else has finished
before they started
if you know one like him
produce him
I thought not
Jesus is all that!

Busy Bones

Whispers coming from somewhere... "Psssst... Psssst...
Excuse me sister do you have a few dollars that you could spare?" This well dressed beautiful sister that appeared to have it all together on the exterior beckoned me.
My name is Fawn... When I looked at her face. I knew her. Forgetting that she'd asked me for money; I began expressing excitement. I had not seen her for about fifteen years. As I reached out to hug her she reached back and held me so tight as though she was thirsty to feel anothers arms wrapped around her soul. As we embraced she said sis, it is so good to see you. I am so tired.

Her name is Star... I asked her what was going on? She did not hesitate in her admittance to using drugs. She told me that the doctors recently quoted her six months or less to live as a result of living the past several years with AIDS. Star's condition was no secret. She had been open about her diagnosis for many years. I asked her what was different today and reminded her that she has always known of her possible death. She said I guess knowing that she has reached the end of her time is the difference.

My word's to Star were that "My sister, you are putting too much faith in your disease despite that God has kept you living and looking well all these years. I told her that the doctor can only assume her life's completion. "God be the giver and taker of life." I held her hand tight as I gave her my words. As we continued talking, I explained to her that despite her circumstances she is indeed, special to God. "He Loves you Star.."

Then, I asked her a very important question. 'If God has kept you twenty four years living and looking well with your disease, why would you volunteer to assist the enemy in killing herself?"

I told her that if this is her mission then I could not contribute to such a thing. I explained that God has been good to me so that I will not have a hand in helping her to throw God's GIFT of life back into his face... I could not give her any money to buy drugs.

I do not know if my words meant anything. I do not know if my refusal to give her money angered her. What I do know is that; to be granted the gift of recovery from active addiction, and to be given twenty-four years of flawless beauty despite having such a horrible disease like AIDS is a Gift from God. This alone is enough for any "busy body" to reconsider there thoughts of returning to the slavery of addiction...

When Star realized how adamant I was, she did what any addict who is determined to use does. She kept it moving. I made my way to my car and I sat for a while praising and thanking God for his mercy & grace upon my own life. Thanking him that, I Fawn choose to appreciate his gift of life and choose to be a bellower of his word.. I also prayed for Star.

Trip to the LIbrary

Indianapolis Museum Of Arts

Now Is the old becoming new. What's been taught and told is eventually remembered and lived. That is why it is wise to take what you need and save the rest for later. Never throw out information because you find no use for it at the time. All perceptions must be considered as life will present various options at various times. It is then an opportunity to reference our library. We always know.. Sometimes we simply don't use all of our resources.

Sufficient Supply

Life can teach us incredible lessons if we are open to receive them. Sometimes we find that things around us are out of order. Perhaps your steps were set in a particular direction and suddenly, you look up and realize that you have no control and must just go with the flow. This my friends is an opportunity to exercise patience, understanding and trust.

In totality it's the serenity prayer playing out in our lives.

"God grant me the serenity to accept the things that I cannot change, the courage to change that in which I can, and the wisdom to know the difference."

The difference being; knowing, and accepting that we have, no power to change certain things...

This is when we are forced to trust, and have faith, or we can simply decide to have faith. I tell you that the latter is also greater.

I have a saying that is also the theme of one of my business' and it is becoming the theme of my life. "Attitude is Everything!"

Many years ago a negative circumstance landed me in many positive situations. During this time, I was exposed to lessons, introduced to resources, and positioned to experience things never imagined.

Today it is evident that collectively each one had been preparing me for this particular time and place in my life.

We are human and in being so, it must rain on each of us.

Remember...

Rain is a vital nutrient for growth. Few things "raise up" in the desert. Yet, the sun is always there although, it may duck behind a cloud now and then... "A. Najai D'Raughn"

We can trust that the sun will shine again but while waiting, seek the opportunity to enjoy the rain's supply. It is sufficient to quench our thirst as the sun is sufficient to dry our tears and keep us warm.

Blessings,

What Do You Have To Lose

We all should strive for faith in our vision. If you see something in your mind; or if you are thinking constantly about something it is for a reason. I can tell you that when you sit around thinking that your dream is impossible. Surely,it will come true.

I love the question; "What do you have to lose?" I love the answer even more. The answer is; Nothing.... "Absolutely nothing!"


Research is an important part of pursuing a dream. Sometimes a dream looks and feels impossible because we are viewing within a scope or range determined by our eyes. One of the greatest gifts we have is technology. Particularly the Internet. If you do not own a computer. Utilize your local library. In most states computers are available there, and free to use. Another suggestion is, an Internet cafe such as Starbucks.

If you don't know where either of these are ask someone. If not comfortable navigating on a computer then ask for help!

In other words, make NO EXCUSES to not go after your dream.


On the Internet you can research the "what, when and how" to pursue your dream or vision. You will be surprised to know that once you make up your mind to do something, It can be achieved. Seeing it and putting it down on paper is what makes it more achievable. In a way it it like creating a map or road to your vision!

Follow that map... Research and write. This will motivate you.
You may find that you can purchase things for a lot less than you expected. You can even develope creative ways to get things donated in order to make your dream happen.

Some dreams may not involve buying anything. The point is to just take action!

The bottom line is that you will never get closer to your dream, if you stare at it from afar.Best of blessings... See you at the high point of success!(C) logicalpoetist October 2009

Black womyn

A Black woman

can never be confined

by mere words

Webster does her no justice

she is a soul of indescribable power

do your thing black woman

you are sensitive but strong

and have become successful

through your failures

you bathe in the sun of your family

they are the radiance of the sun in you

black woman do your thing

you work and never tire

setting a flame stereo typical beliefs

that say you are the weakest link

black woman

you are what starts

and finishes the chain

go on black woman

I noticed your hands black woman

when you dropped to your knees

folded them uttering prayers

blessings of mercy came

pouring down

as a result

upon your children

black woman

you are powerful

black woman

who else besides you

peels the skin off the truth

and gets everyone together

the weather depends

on your forecast

black woman

you set the tone

of leadership with your dignity

and confidence

the world cannot make sense

of your subdued posterity

how you say so much

without ever saying anything

there is no more of a

misinterpreted being

than you my beautiful

sister and queen

than

mama

than

Nana

grandma

who has gone now

than me

all black women

we will always do our thing

don't hate us love us

accept us

because we are the ones praying

and holding up the spiritual walls

preventing your fall

into bottomless pits

our prayers sent you epiphany

so stand on the sidelines

clapping and shouting...

go on black woman

do your thing

Silouette Faces

**************************************************************

Oh I can for you

tilt my head

drink your rushing words with eager lips

paint my mouth for you a vibrant red

trace your brows with shaking finger tips

you recite your list

of loves to me

As I laugh and marvel,

with rapturous eyes

you laugh back

can you ever see

the thousands of deaths

my heart has died

believing so well that I know my part

gay as morning

light as snow

yet all the taunting

things within my heart

you never try to know

oh I can for you be jolly

when we meet

as you tell fresh tales

of your adventuring

I am delicately discreet

in your ear whisper

songs pleased at your delight

wondering do you want all of me

raw and true

blind staring eyes of night

In search of novelty

you stray off

kiss you passionately as you go

what happens inside my heart

when you stray, these things

you will never, ever, know-

Soaking in Somber...

It is the most somber

days bringing uncomparable

gifts of peace

seek, find refuge upon a cloud

in a grey sky

trees journeying through

change dispurse

array of color

tepid waves of solace

is here for a time

the time of now

basking in now

savoring the experience

not of what's gone by

of what can be made

of now
