Excruciating Physical Pain


Shows that you’re vulnerable
Dampens your spirits
Cuts like a knife
Can start the flow of tears
Thinking becomes lessened
Lose interest of material things
Mind directed on the pain
What steps are taken next
Remembering your loved ones
Flashback to survival

Love Conquers All


I learned that
Through the struggles,
Through the pain.

One thing remains…

Love of God and others
Helps take it away,
Day by day.

War and Its Emotional Effects



these days my brother was mortally wounded in 1992…

“Can you briefly tell me what he said in the letter that is vital for us to know?  What do you remember as IMPORTANT in the words that he left for you?????”

in wounds on the battlefield lying wounded…

“You sound very hurt from this terrible war?  It must have been so bad”

worse than you think…

what about the novel that I possess

“tell me of your novel?”

this is unpublished novel about the war in bosnia

i want to publish in USA, need a publisher

“are you writing this?”

it is written in the war in war conditions

“Your brother left this behind you told me earlier, now I remember”

“Bosnia sounds like a great name for your country!”

bosnia sounds like carol

history says that bosnia was three

“Has it been published in your country?  To tell of the pain?”

no

THE RISKS TO FAMILIES.  My opinion

Christmas so Bright (2012)


Christmas decorations all so bright
In the glistening snow of white
On this wintery cold night

It is an awesome, beautiful sight
When you see the blinking light
On this wintery cold night

Families gathered around so tight
For the meal to soon take plight
On this wintery cold night

Thoughts went to the Saviour’s might
The reason for peace and not to fight
On this wintery cold night

If All I Ask…

If all I ask is fairness
For all the people in this world
What would it be?

It would be for your happiness
It would be for your love
It would be for your future
It would be for your welfare

If all I ask is kindness
For all the people in this world
What would it be?

It would be for your care
It would be for your family
It would be for your society
It would be for your emotions

If all I ask is rightness
For all the people in this world
What would it be?

It would be for your safety
It would be for your strength
It would be for your freedom
It would be for your ability

If all I ask is justness
For all the people in this world
What would it be?

It would be for your peace
It would be for your progress
It would be for your mind
It would be for your soul

Our Life to Hold!


There was one time in my life when I felt depressed.  I remember it was around junior high.  You know what I did?
 I picked up the Bible.  And read His Word.

It gave me Hope
To want something and eventually it will be granted in time.

It gave me Thankfulness
To learn to be grateful in life and don’t take things for granted.

It gave me Strength
To know that in things we endure, we learn to pick ourselves up and keep going.
                       
It gave me Wisdom
To know that knowledge is the beginning to understanding your life.

It gave me Love
To know the depth and meaning to the divine love that is given to us.

It gave me Faith
To believe and trust that all things are possible through Him.

It gave me Life
To learn that the Spirit enhances our desire to be all that we can be in life through knowing Him.
                
It gave me Courage
 To learn that when we go through difficulties in life; it builds our character.        
        
It gave me Prayer
To take a moment each day and reflect upon; and give thanks and praise to Him.

You Speak From the Heart…


When you smile
When you cry
When you listen
When you ask
When you pray
When you forgive
When you help
When you share
When you care
When you give
When you love
