Little Portions,
little portions of time.
Drip, drip, drip,
goes the rain as it starts to sprinkle,
a small portion of water,
begins to form in my hand.
I start to think of one,
of my very close friends.
Never here, always there,
such a long way distance.
A little portion of time,
to prepare,to pray, for the day,
never enough time to play,
just like the little portion of water,
in my hand.

10 years later…the hidden message is clear. “Stop hiding the tears.”
Written underneath was a simple thought my mother must have left on the very old piece of paper “the short time here is memorable and rare.”
Just as the rain falls,
we all awaken to his call,
one by one, we awaken another,
from which time has called upon us.Brothers and Sisters.
Hear his voice. Strengthen yourself. Unite!
Fellow souls,
this portion of water comes from the rein of heavens.He pours his abundance over his loyal children and walks with those who give him glory.
Glory by seeing oneself before judging another, by giving honor without bloodshed, by giving to your fellow man without expectation in return.Just by being the love.
Mother Earth gives you all that you need. She gives honors to you as we honor him. Become one and you shall see. Seek your “Missing piece,” not within another but for the one you seek most.YOU. You need you.

I am by no means a Christian. I am spiritual. I believe in necessary chaos. I walk with those unseen and hear distant cries.

I cannot dismiss the many signs I see and claim them not to be real. I cannot hear his voice and say he must not exist when in fact he has been guiding my hand from birth, giving me trials and rising from struggle after like a champion. I am one.
So may you.
And — in your own ways, dear reader,
no matter what you believe in, so will you. No matter what the rest of the day holds. Face the world the day anew. Every day is a new challenge. Will you let it go to waste?
How will you know just how much you can take? Will you let the mission overhaul you? Somethings we don’t understand but indeed, it all goes according to a higher plan.
Maybe it didn’t happen the way you wanted but years later, maybe it happened for a result you’d appreciate even better. Through yourself, your environment. It may not look like what you wanted right now, but don’t give up! Who knows where it may lead you. Ahh, don’t you say it.
“Look where it has gotten me this far.” Doubt creates more doubt, my friend.
You never know where it will lead you until you see the end…and who know where the end lies? We’ll never know.
Spiritual or not. This is your message. You clicked on this. You were brought here to hear it. You attracted this.
“DON’T GIVE UP.”
“Don’t give up.” I see you smiling. lol
