One year ago today I took the pill
The very last one it’s been since , still,
And ever since that day, it’s been his will
Some moments ferocious
Some moments nil
But I kept, for the most part,
Trudging  uphill
It’s been such a voyage
And I loved all it gave
I remember the one’ s that 
Lost to the grave 
The many who left and never got saved!
The ones who still run a life enslaved
And for me?
The glorious  choice to remain.
And what a wondrous
Life
I now live today
Even when storm clouds brew
I still feel okay.
I know it’s a lesson,
To grow and to learn,
To pass on to the others
That they too can turn
Into the people
They always wanted to be .
Men and woman,
Happy joyous and free !
One year ago today my life really began.
It was then that I started on a whole different plan.
No longer mine , see ,
 I gave it to God ,
Yes,  the spirit of  the universe, 
which I choose to call LOVE !

Forget all those expensive cold remedies that make you feel like you're walking around in a fog. Use instead the holistic method which can, for the most part for anyone who has cared to try it, work in one day. It's less expensive, you can use ingredients you have in the house and you won't feel dazed from a cold medicine.

The key to this method is your self. You have to pay attention to your body and what it is telling you. Colds rarely slam you down without a bit of forewarning. A slight runny nose or you're a little achier than normal for instance, these are signs that a cold is trying to invade your body.

As soon as you become aware of these warning signs, swallow a whole, peeled, fresh garlic clove. That's right, a garlic clove. The clove should be no larger than a multi-vitamin, otherwise you may choke. Like a multi-vitamin, drink a glass of water to wash it down. Tip: Place the rounded side up so it curves with the back of your throat for ease in swallowing.

Usually one garlic clove will do the trick. However, if your cold is further along than you anticipated, the next course of action is to cease all activity and go to bed. I know that this is a tough one to do you're very busy after all. But this is essential for two reasons. Number one and most important, the body heals itself only while at rest. That bears repeating; the body only heals and repairs itself while at rest. This goes for all ailments. Number two, you're contagious. Be considerate of other people's health. Don't get the whole office and/or your family sick. Quarantine yourself.

After you've had a good nap, you can take another garlic clove, and power down some vitamin C. If you don't have any citrus look around your fridge for a bell pepper which contains twice the Vitamin C as citrus, red bells have three times. If you're feeling very brave you can eat a raw chili pepper which has even more vitamin C.

Next on my list of things to do to annihilate the common cold is a little aromatherapy. Most likely you don't have any eucalyptus or rosemary essential oil (if you do, GREAT! Use a couple drops to your simmering water. ) So instead use Vicks VapoRub which has eucalyptus and cedar oils in it. Take a ½ teaspoon of the ointment and drop it into a small pot of two cups simmering water. The oils will kill airborne cold bugs. If you're still feeling stuffy, you can breathe the vapors for some relief.

Last, go to bed early and while you're drifting off to sleep, think to yourself, I will be well in the morning, I will be well in the morning. This is important. Your intent and mental resistance to the cold will be wholly beneficial in using this remedy. In the morning if you don't feel completely well, I trust that you will feel significantly better. Pop another garlic clove just for good measure.

Of course the best way to stop a cold is prevention. Wash your hands frequently during cold season, dress appropriately, eat well and stay rested.

Some tips and warnings:

I've not heard complaints from people about garlic breath, but even if you did have it staying away from you while you're contagious is a good thing!

If you don't have a small enough clove, you can cut a larger one to size. Be warned that by doing so you will release the juice and it can be rather strong on the tongue.

Be sure to drink plenty of fluids.

Please note that I am not a doctor nor am I prescribing. I am recommending a method that has worked for me and most everyone who has tried it. If you have severe cold or flu symptoms, see your doctor.

If you have sensitivity to garlic or your stomach cannot tolerate onions or garlic, this may not be the remedy for you.

Too much garlic can cause stomach discomfort.

If using this method on children, only a sliver of garlic is needed provided you can get the child to swallow it!

When love comes , dont let it go, God will show you how to flow, though the world may frown and sound against, hold on to the love on the other side of the fence. When  love creeps in just like a dream and all the people laugh and scream , take pride in that which you have discovered and know the Lord has got you covered. When love is all he has to give, take on the chance with something big, for all the world may wish to see what good is loves porosity.

My  solitaire
you aren't there
Ive got
reasons to call you unfair
For leaving us without a goodbye
As if you knew it was your last time

High society
called you out once again
Bet you
thought it would be different
Not like the last
Which it turned out it be
Just like the first time
Now your finally free
Oh Stephanie….
I can still hear your laugh across this sometimes dark world ,the meadows ,the sorrows and flightless trials………………………
you couldn't stand another day
So the lord
He took you away
Oh Stephanie

Fun fair
Without a care
Ive got
Little time to prepare
A life stolen so quick
In a moments breath was your fix
But prayer, now,  all I can do
With or without you.

Materialism 'the cancer of spirituality.

I care not that of which ye crow!

I have my pride, and with that alone, I crown myself, alas, another day, dry from the poisonous drink. The one which made sick and mad my dear mother, and consumes non other then my sisters and brothers, this sad delirium, who cares so much to live so little

This is the only time I am good

When you do the things you say you would

Like waking up early enough to breath

To turn the pages of my morning read

And it's a bumpy road sometimes

And I know it's temporary, I've seen all these signs

And the smoothness, yes, it does last a while

But until it's flat again, I just cry just like a child

This is the only time I am good

When the blood is thin by the drugs that could

And I can't seem to shake what the ashtray screamed

I wish I could see the silver lining

I am hungry

I am lonely

I am not afraid to say

That I really don't feel like living today
