What is the meaning of life?

Have you ever grown-up wandering?
Whom do I ask?
Who has the answer?
Does the universe give you a clue?
Or do you impose life on yourself
Without any help?
Do you lay your cards on the table
As long as you are able?

What is the meaning of life
For you?

Your religion
Your daily horoscope
Be happy
Love the life you live
Look ahead not back
Life goes on
Daily scratch offs
Whatever you want it to be
Solve problems
Falling in love with some one
Make one person smile
Develop full potential
Help others
Give to your favorite charity

I know for sure
There are a lot more
Add to the list if you wish
********************************************
My meaning of Lile!
God should be glorified
In whatever I do!

I’m in the moment when:

I’m dancing
Seeing a pretty girl
Drinking my Dewarts
Finding love
Enjoying my solitude
Drinking black coffee
I’m praying
Singing karaoke
Being silly
Finding my safe space
I am in the moment when
I am in the moment
**************************
Find joy in the immediate circumstance

Lord show me a way out!
The physical pain I bear every day
The stress I endure each day
Give my doctors your wisdom

Restore my purpose in life
Establish my verve
Take away the tediousness
Transport me around the bend

Reinstate your purpose for me
Bring back my confidence
Escort me to Moriah
Where strength and faith be my attire

Give me Your grace to follow Your lead
Give me Your strength to succeed
Bless me with Your mighty power
Sustain me every hour

Walk with me during my failures and successes
Guide my steps
Direct my desires
May my heart rest in Your peace

May my prays like incense rise
To Your mercy seat in the sky
If it be Your will
Your commands I will fulfill

if you have faith” Matthew 21-22

‘I tell you whatever you ask in prayer
believe that you have received it,
if you have faith” Mark 11-24

When I was young, I planted a garden in the rain
I sowed dreams,hopes,wishes and desires.
I fertilized with love ambition goals objectives determination
My garden grew as I grew
But sometimes in life’s relationships undermine challenge dwarf your intentions
Weeds began to sprout in my garden
Jealousy envy covets lies deceit lack of support
I realized soon that in our romance she would rather
Lead when we danced!!
I deeded to wear the pants!
I removed the weeds that quenched ambitions
I moved on
And found someone who helps me fertilize
My garden in the rain
*****************************************
Remember love is respect and you deserve it
don’t settle for anything else.

Goodbye to yesterday
For yesterday is today
And tomorrow will be the same

Time travels alone we travel with it
This my life has shown
It takes me to the unknown

You do what you can day to day
Sometimes sunshine sometimes rain
Happenings occurrences you can’t explain

You choose in that moment
What seems the best
And ignore all the rest

Daily choices become clear
You make them
Without doubt or fear

Life gives no answers
No guarantees assurances for tomorrow
Your time is only borrowed

As nighttime approaches darkness looms
You do what you have to do to prepare
And hope to make your 3AM prayers
**********************************
“Do not worry about tomorrow, for
tomorrow will worry about itself
each day has enough trouble of its own”
Matthew 6

I like my coffee black
My life is simple like that
No addons or frills
Minimal to the max
It keeps me relaxed

Some prefer hot and sweet
Others prefer hot and creamy
Yesterday’s choices were mine
Choices I chose to decline

Sometimes for an additional rush
Add an extra touch
When things get a little slow
A shot of expresso is the way to go

After a fine dining meal
When coffee is served at the table
Many select what they like or feel
You’ll know for sure I’ll order a
coffee liqueur

“They say you’re only as strong as the coffee you drink
So, I started drinking black coffee”

Just tell me the truth
Don’t lie and pretend
Don’t tell me you swear
When you don’t even care
Wisdom comes with age
I’ve turned its pages
If you want me to return
Lesson learned
Be true to yourself
That’s what matters
Take it to heart
Before your life shatters
Lies only destroy
Leaving only a decoy

“Truth may hurt for a little while,
but a lie hurts forever”

Never lonely never lonesome never in a bad mood
Thanks to my solitude
A time to reflect on who I am
A time to know myself
A time to restore myself
A time for independence of thought
From the life I have fought
The older I get I refuse to regret
Solitude is medicine for the old
No prescription necessary I’ve been told
************************************
“Loneliness expresses the pain of being alone,
and solitude expresses the glory of being alone”
Paul Tillich

Told today my brother passed away
I will never know why or the reason God took you as he did.
We mortals have to answer to God.
Some day we will all wear immortality like you.
You were all alone with no time to say goodby
What is it like to leave reality?
Leaving those you love taking only your memories
Leaving no time for our goodbyes
Only God knows our appointed time
But he tells us to be prepared
I will miss you brother and cherish
the memories we shared for 80 years

And the day of death (better) than
The day of birth” Ecclesiastes 7:1
Love you brother
Say hello to the family
