If you are trying to shield yourself from what people
Will think or may say about your life’s journey…
Alas, it is nothing but an exercise in futility.
For we have no control over their actions or speech.
Rather expend that energy investing in you
And thrive and on the inherent possibilities.

Vicious is the apparatus of fear…
For it descends upon you with such awful might
Either in stealth manner or by insidious descent
Then in persistent measure seeks to erode, should one
Permit it to take permanent abode within one’s essence,
The body of hope that ought to propel each one
Into the absolute realm of possibility and beyond despair.
Reject the albatross!

Time itself, is an enigma.
Sometimes, it is in the present
Sometimes, in the old past
Often, memories of distant times
Feel very vivid, while recollections
Of the recent, appear apt to fade
More rapidly into the recesses.
Though intangible it may seem
Yet, within that very aspect, most
Dreams must thereto hold fast and
Plans advanced to capitalize on the
Dividend of hope amid each moment.

Do not sacrifice the laurels you earned
Through hard work and sweat equity
For want of dreams that have not yet
Come to pass, rather treasure that
Which reflect the reward of your earnest
Effort, and use them without any reservation to
Motivate and propel you to the goal of enriching
Your gift of life and that of others, and therefrom
Find contentment, which in itself will supplant
The void of unrealized dreams with hope
Which in time will yield the bounty of peace.

And although, the dawn of the new year is now but a memory,
As the year itself, unrestrained by time, embarks on its own course
Through the passage of each minute, towards the fulfillment
Of its own destiny within the global enterprise of existence,
The dawn of hope never eclipses or fades into the oblivion of time
Rather, with the unfolding of each precious moment, lies renewed
Promise that knows no bounds and springs to inspire one and all…
Therefore, seize it and maximize its potential to fit your purpose.
Happy New 2015.

Do not let the disappointment of the moment
Linger too long with your soul, my friend …
Commit to discarding its woeful garment and
The propensity to overwhelm the spirit with despair.
Rather, seek within and around you that which uplifts
And in earnest measure find joy, and maximize to your
Own advantage, the treasures of the unique gift, of each day.

Adamantly refusing to give up on one’s dreams
But pursuing them, despite the challenges
Or difficulties, that in unrelenting manner, stand
As sentry to prevent the valiant effort of dedication
On the path forward, and attempt to submerge hope
Within the looming and treacherous valleys of despair,
And yet, refusing to lie vanquished, the determined spirit
Still persistently pursuing that which it yearns to achieve,
Negotiating no alternative but committed steadfastness,
Is a commendable positively stubborn attribute that all must
Endeavour to embrace and strive to earnestly uphold, to
Guard one through the rugged terrain of life, to the victorious
Plains of never giving up for want of those dear and personal dreams.

Do not let the ripples of irritation in life
Be they constant, or intermittent, detract
From the promise and joy of living earnestly.
For they, possess the power and proclivity
Of attempting to consume or overshadow
Life to the disadvantage of sustained progress.
Therefore, make diligent entreaties towards
Focusing on the nature and promise of hope.
Accentuate that which inspires the spirit to soar.
Convert the destructive into positive momentum,
And propel yourself forward to the realization
Of the dreams you envisioned for the fullness
Of the bountiful gift of the life that is yours.

I am overwhelmed by your grace, oh Lord
For your mercy consumes my soul with joy.
You have constantly been attendant to my cries
And you have heard my silent weeping in the night.
Although, errant are my ways from your righteousness
Even yet, thy favour present and sudden embrace me.
Amid all the cares of this great universe under your charge
You in mercy incline thine ear unto my pleas, and in the
Abundance of thy healing power with blessings surround
My being, despite myself and despite my sins.
You with your faithfulness, cease not to part the
Red seas of my life, and with thy angels land me safely
On the promised side, according to your time and will, in awe,
My mortal frames acknowledges thy wondrous supremacy
And that through all life, thou are more than sufficient unto me.
Rejoice oh my soul, for the Lord of all creation, has in
Faithful covenant, manifest yet again, His love for me.
Blessed be the name of my God, the Almighty Jehovah
Ever present, mighty and ever victorious on the battlefield.
All praise, glory and thanksgiving be yours, my King
Forever and through the ageless age of eternity.
