Be Inspired

Overcoming Fear Of The Unknown I wrote this one day just to get some fears of the unknown out. It inspired and reminded me not to worry about what tomorrow brings because it only comes one minute at a time. Today I felt lost. I couldn't find Your hand. I felt so alone, I just don't understand. Today I am afraid, For tomorrow's troubles may bring More pain than today. I may not last; I'll continue to pray. Why do I worry about tomorrow? Today brings enough fear; For today was the tomorrow That seemed all too near. Today I am afraid, For tomorrow's troubles may bring More pain than today I may not last; I'll continue to pray. I'll never forget about the past. My pain will never let me. Tomorrow is how long it will last. By then I may be free.

Are you depressed or down in the dumps? Do you want to give up on your goals and just quit? If this applies to you, this is exactly what you have been looking for to motivate you to come back even harder and achieve your dreams. When times are hard, you might stop for a bit, But it's not over until the moment you quit. On a river's bridge, failures are the planks; Take one step at a time until you reach its banks. Don't give up on your dreams, chase them instead; You will find, one morning, as you wake up from bed, That you are the person about whom you dreamed, And you can reach great heights, impossible though it seemed. When things go wrong and your back is to the wall, Try to stand up, no more can you fall. Life is full of ups and downs, take them in your stride, You will discover your little star, hidden inside.

I choose to write this because I am going through a hard time. Maybe it will help someone else. Sometimes you may think you're alone, And your feelings make you seem like a clone. Deep down you are whole, Not an empty bowl. Someone loves you, And all the words they say are true. Trust in yourself To be strong And true and whole and mighty. This time will pass; It's just a trial. Just walk down this aisle, Head held high; You're strong.

This poem is for that special person who has taught me the true meaning of life. He supported me when I was at my weakest. He never failed to make me happy. He taught me how let go of my fears and just live life to the fullest. "I am no longer afraid to fall, for I know whenever I am about to, you'll be there to catch me. In your eyes I see a world of happiness, for now I am no longer afraid of the world on the outside. Your arms gives me the comfort of belonging, for now I am no longer afraid of being alone. Because of you I am no longer afraid. You have given me the courage to become who I am today. Your love shows me that you'll always be by my side. That is why now I am no longer afraid to love.

Inspiring Change For Addicts I wrote this poem in a very short time while I was in a treatment center for addiction. I know addiction is a very big problem for people in this world, and hopefully this can be an inspiration for someone struggling with this disease the way I have. Since writing this I am doing a lot better, but it is a daily battle trying to get my life back in order. The only words of advice I have is just take it one day at a time. Thank you for reading I'm writing this to you, Telling you we're through. I can't take you anymore, Don't know what I liked you for. All you did was wear me out. Now I know what you're all about. You came to me with promise and joy, Now look at all the things you destroy. Families, lives, bank accounts, you see. You ruined it all with one little tease. Look at the way you make me feel Then you take it all and want me to steal Why can't you just go and hide Somewhere far away where I'...

Treat me with love, dignity, respect and compassion Now as I am healthy, vibrant and alive. Don't wait to hear that I am sick and dying To love me the way I was meant to be loved. Bring me flowers and candy on any day just because. Don't wait for a holiday, love and cherish me every day. Tell me I am beautiful. See my beauty in my body and soul. Don't wait to see that I am disfigured And then tell me that I am beautiful Because you think that is what I want to hear. Talk to me lovingly now so I can hear your beautiful voice And listen to the ringing of your laughter. Don't try to talk to me that way now That I am deaf and can no longer hear your sweet voice. Speak words of love and compassion So I can remember those conversations Even though I may not be able to hear them again. Come one day and you will be sad, you will be sorry! Treat me like a human being with a life That needs to be lived my way...not yours! Remember that our Creator gave y...

I walk slowly down the streets paved with sadness, Addicts begging for favors and pleading for change, Desperation plagues their dark hollow eyes And their hearts, they are empty and I I silently cry. I see in parks the children that are playing, Smiles and joy lights up their faces with glee, Laughter fills the air with song and delight, Their hearts are full with love and trust in their eyes, I silently cry. I cry for the lost, the rich and the poor, Whose hearts have grown bitter and cold, For what could have been in their life is now gone, And left is the empty high of a drug that's unknown, I silently cry. I pray for the ones who have given up hope, Hope for a future of love, faith and joy, I pray for the lonely the sick and the lost, That someone would take the time to reach out, I silently hope, I hope for a future, a better tomorrow, For people who need compassion and care, I hope that bitterness melts with the touch of a heartbeat, I hope for the l...
