Homecoming

 

Home is where the heart is…
As we search for happiness.. we ran to all sides of the world.. in our hearts there will always be a place we call home..
Place where we can be freely – ourselves
Place where what matters most is peace and love..
Place where we can rest our wings.. our souls..


Homecoming

Been flying the high
and lows
As all seasons just
come and go
Where mortals may
fear to tread
Aisles to hell which
every man dread
Flying closer towards
the light of ‘morrow.
 

Wings spread as if in
solemn meditation
Upon the earth below
and wild vegetation
Soaring to heavens
where souls will climb one day
Or descend to hell
below of lesser god’s home maybe
But still these wings
casting shadows in mock condemnation.


In the seemingly
endless flights to emptiness
Wings drooped eyes
closed in harried weariness
Yet soaring once more
to where angels live
And descend to hell
where fallen stars saved
In the final act of
prayer in the air there’s stillness.




One soul in its final
act of soaring
find the way to
homecoming.

Poem from a friend.. a father, a husband, a child of God…
A friend in search for love and peace.. A friend who has traveled the world but himself...
A friend I never really know in form, but in soul..
A friend on his way to where his heart belongs... love has never left you.

Redirecting Thoughts!

Sometimes, we forget to take control of our minds. There are times that we just do a lot of things out of habit. We do a lot of things unconsciously. These days, whenever I find myself “thinking”, I am making sure I am thinking productive things. What will I do next?; What are my plans today?;How will I go about today’s activities? If alone in the car, driving, I’d deliberately turn on the positive, encouraging radio station, since their kind of music is good for the soul. I could listen and know that it is all good. As much as possible, I try not to think of negative or bad things. Why? Because I’ve proven that whenever I do that, it boomerangs on me! There was this one time when I felt so pissed off with my husband that my mind was just creating all these negative vibes! Asked what happened next? The more my husband got pissed off. I wasn’t even saying anything, it was all mind power, and it hasn’t done any good! So I experimented the next time it happened, ins...

Vitamins for the Mind

Vitamins for the Mind   by Jim Rohn Results At the end of each day, you should play back the tapes of your performance. The results should either applaud you or prod you. The greatest form of maturity is at harvest time. This is when we must learn how to reap without complaint if the amounts are small and how to reap without apology if the amounts are big. Life asks us to make measurable progress in reasonable time. That's why they make those fourth grade chairs so small—so you won't fit in them at age 25! There are some things you don't have to know how it works, only that it works. While some people are studying the roots, others are picking the fruit. It just depends on which end of this you want to get in on.    "Vitamins for the Mind" is a weekly sampling of original quotes on a specific topic taken from The Treasury of Quotes by Jim Rohn. The burgundy hardbound book with gold-foil lettering is a collection of...

Jack of All Trades

My parents gave me all the opportunities to try and do different activities while growing up. I did ballet. I had swimming lessons ; I joined theatre arts ; I had piano recitals ; I learned bicycling; I played volleyball; I was one of the editors in our school paper. I was even a member of University Quiz Bee contest called "Pautakan", representing our college for 3 years! In high school, I admired students who could do Impromptu Speeches. You see, I could memorize long scripts, I could compose essays but to speak my mind in a contest? Whoa! I guess, I carried that thought - wishful thinking with me, even after college, that it led me to become a member of Toastmaster's International in Makati, Philippines and then here in Gallup, NM, USA! Do I still know how to ballet dance? Mmmm... Lol! Swim? Mmmm... not where I can't touch the floor or sand, OK?  hehe Play piano? Mmmm... I can do two piano pieces? Will that count? hahaha Act? Oh yes! Could...
