  • I WILL NOT GIVE IN

    Thursday, December 4, 2008

    I WISH I WAS LIKE I WAS BEFORE
    THIS DREADFUL ILLNESS KNOCKED ON MY DOOR
    I WILL FIGHT THROUGH IT I WON'T LET IT WIN
    I WON'T BACK DOWN I WILL NEVER GIVE IN
    I WON'T DROWN IN TEARS OF SORROW
    I WILL LOOK FORWARD TO A BRIGHTER TOMORROW
    I WILL CHERISH THE SUN AND FORGET THE RAIN
    I WILL BE ME ONCE AGAIN
    I WILL FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT
    FOR THIS AIN'T THE END
    I WILL NEVER BACK DOWN
    I WILL NEVER GIVE ...

    It was very peaceful there. 
    As I walked through the garden I spotted some pretty little butterflie's and I started trying to get some pictures of them. I managed to catch this one atop a flower.
    This garden had many lovley flowers, but I found this one especially interesting so I took it's pi...

  • Still Standing Tall

    Saturday, March 8, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

    Still sick yet still standing tall.
    No matter how out of control my life might be
    I won't let myself fall.
    Still in pain yet still laughing through the tears.
    Never backing down throughout the years.
    Still tired yet still strong. 
    Relying on my inner strength to get me along.

  • I love to go to the zoo...

    Sunday, August 23, 2009

    One of the most enjoyable day trips I love to take is to grab my digital camera
    and go to the zoo.  These pictures I took over this past weekend at the
    Point Defiance Zoo.
    Imagine my surprise when I looked at the photo and saw what I
    snapped. I just love this picture.
    Another great picture that happened by accident. I love the expression
    of the girl looking at this moon jelly fish.
    The Octopus wa...

    Monday, August 17, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

    I Am a Military Girlfriend.....
    I am a military girlfriend.I hold no formal recognition with the powers that be.I am at the bottom of the chain. I hold no Military ID card; I am not a "dependent" or parent.The man i love may face unspeakable dangers, and I am at the mercy of those who possess this recognition for news.I understand this and accept this.

    TIME SLIPS AWAY
    DAYS GO BY
    BUT NO MATTER WHAT
    GOD IS BY OUR SIDE
    HE GIVES US STRENGTH
    HE MAKES US STRONG
    HE GIVES US HOPE
    TO CARRY ON
    WE ARE NEVER ALONE
    HE IS ALWAYS NEAR
    HE GIVES US COURAGE
    TO FACE OUR FEARS
    HIS EVERLASTING LOVE
    MAKES US FEEL SECURE
    IT WILL BE WITH US ALWAYS
    AND FOREVER MORE

  • LIFE IS PRECIOUS

    Wednesday, February 18, 2009 | A Poem/Artistic story

    DAYS GO BY
    TIMES SLIPS AWAY
    LIVE LIFE NOW
    LIVE FOR TODAY
    TOMORROW ISN'T PROMISED
    IT ISN'T GUARANTEED
    SO MAKE EACH MOMENT COUNT
    LIVE OUT YOUR HOPES AND DREAMS
    CHERISH EVERY MOMENT
    MAKE YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE
    PONDER EVER SECOND
    GOD HAS GRANTED YOU
    MAKE THE MOST OF EVERYDAY
    DON'T LET OPPORTUNTIES PASS YOU BY
    LIFE CAN BE LOST IN A FLASH
    WITHOUT AN ANSWER AS TO WHY
    EVERDAY THAT WE EXIST
    IS A BLESSING FROM ...

                      I got a card given to me recently and wanted to share the poem inside.
    Wisdom from the Father
    Peace within your home
    The fellowship of Christians
    In whatever land you roam
    Blessings all along the path
    That God leads you to choose
    The sheild of faith before you
    As you spread the Lord's good news
