    Expectations and Disappointments

      Experiencing disappointment on some level in life is inevitable. Let’s not try and make believe that its not and that it doesn’t suck. It sucks! I know we’re not supposed to have expectations of others because it will more than likely lead to disappointment. Yet, we do it and sometimes we do it to those closest to us. Here’s the thing. Did you talk to the person about the issue at hand or did you just assume they understood and  they just didn’t care? Did you rehearse a conversation in your head of how it would go? Did it go the complete opposite? Now what? You’re sitting alone and…

    He Saw Me

    Thank You, Lord for your nail scarred hands and thorn scarred brow You let them beat you to a pulp and I don’t understand how If you would’ve let anger control you instead of pure love You could’ve called Legions of Angels and a reign of destruction from above But you kept your composure and let them march you that cross shaped tree You did all this ’cause on the other side, you saw me

    Blessing

    It don’t matter to me if you’re a CEO or if you dance on a pole I will treat you all the same because a soul is a soul See, God wants us to walk in love And when you do, your blessings will come from above So when you do things to help people, expect nothing in return Cause when you do, then God’s favor you will definitely earn Instead of worrying in life and all its stressing Live in God’s favor and be someone’s blessing

    Thank You, God

    My name is Brodie Simon and I wanna say, Thank You to my God My whole life I had been a screw up and won’t hide behind any facade But you see, my God no longer sees the old me He sees my future and the person He created me to be What God has done for me, He will do the same for you And His love for us is the only thing in life that’s true So, I just wanna thank You for your nail scarred hands and The Cross Cause now I know my eternal destination is no longer up for a toss

    One More Time

    God, I know someday you will send that special someone That will be my best friend, my love, my very heartbeat and be second to none But I will guard my heart firmly until I know she was sent by you Cause I never again wanna suffer the tortures that I’ve once lived through So I’m willing to trust your better judgement where this is concerned And try this again, with all these painful lessons that have been learned Cause I sure could use a good partner in this dance called Life That is beautiful inside and out and would love to be my wonderful wife

    Castles In The Sky

    You count your success by your possessions and bank rolls God determines it by your impact on people’s souls We work through life to see who can build the biggest empires But it will do you no good in the afterlife, if that’s your heart’s only desires I too, would like to have castles and mansions But I’m working on mine in the sky and in the universe’s expansions See, God is the big boss and he pays very well And if you do a good job, you won’t have to live in a tent or a jail cell

    Make Your Own Fate

    Never go back to what would kill you and have no remorse It’s not that difficult, do the next right thing and stay the course I know that when you’re doing drugs, your mind is cloudy and seems there’s no other way But I’m here to show you different if you listen to what I have to say See, I too couldn’t handle life without a buzz Now, I wanna help people get through this and I do it just because See, I’m still tempted daily and the temptations’s very great But I know Satan’s trying to kill me for this, he cannot wait So you too can ask God…

    Blind

    I’ve lived so long under the wind from Satan’s wings That I’d gotten comfort in the torment and misery that it brings His every breath exhales fire and smoke And I would inhale his death with my every toke This poison entered by body at my own demand Until I got sick of it and reached out for God’s hand Now as appreciation for what God’s done for me I will spread His word and show that the blind can once again see

    Cycles

    At the beginning of your relationship did you think, “wow, this is an awesome person. I can see myself with him or her for the rest of my life.”? Did you share that feeling with your family and friends? I did. Here’s the thing. With a Narcissist, the beginning of relationships are always the best. It is only in the beginning that they are on their best behavior, besides when they are in front of people. It is only in the beginning that they’ll bring out their best tricks to impress you. Why? Because they have to put on the show in order for you to fall in love with…

    Sex

      Sex is viewed in a variety of ways. For some the experience is a negative one. One of abuse, rape or being trafficked. For some, the experience is a positive one. One in which it is/was consensual at all times. For others, its a way of life. Now, what I’m about to write is going to be raw and honest. I’m not going to sugar coat this subject and it will not be easy for me to write it and it may not be easy for you to read. It took me a long time to come to the point in my life and admit that I, myself…had used…
