I Stand Corrected I stand corrected, for now I truly see, the breach I have committed in not seeing your humanity. I am better than the Pharisee - is this not true?

I stand corrected for my part in not seeing the treasure you are, in my chest filled with duplicitous art.

Crab Life
Crab Life Look at you across the room thinking can you make it. your new victim in your sights ready for a fight you approach. You know your role known it long learned it hard. You are the crab who came out of the barrel the one who made it. But there can be only one, only one success story at a time. So you know your role you signed with your blood. Instead of helping the one left to come up you got to work hard to push him down to drown.
Fly
Fly You can run, I know you can. You can fly, I know you can. Out of fear you may run but you need to fly. Use those wings see the joy it brings even in your fear They will take there, where you need to go. When you are down and you feel it's not your time take flight and fly up to the sky.

Is it too late to smile again? to feel the sun on your face? Is it too late to leave the pain? Just have some fun? Is it too late to stop and fight even after your flight? Is it too late to be alive when death was your bedmate? It is too late? We will see...
Be Blessed!
Be Blessed! Be blessed: with friends that love you all of you so you can be true to you. Be blessed: with a body that functions even with the aches and pain there is still a peace inside that takes that rain and make you sane. Be blessed: that you can be content with just enough even with the fluff and all the no sense stuff. Be blessed: a favour bestowed even when you feel low because you already know the best is yet to come. Be blessed, and so it goes row after row and feel those rupples overflow...
