I am super excited!!! My college is holding a contest and I entered into it. We had to make a video explaining our why. Why did we decide to return back to college? I want to make a difference in the community. I am very concerned about broken homes. I am hoping that I win if not it is still okay because I got a chance to use my voice.
Healing
We Are Not Same
Everyone is distinctive
In his or her own way
We are not the same
This is something that should be taught
To every child on their first school day
Each one of us
Have our own fingerprints and DNA
Black people come in different shades
White people have different
Hair and eye color
Asian people have Chinese, Japanese
Filipino, Pakistani, and Korean
Can you see where I am going with this
These things helps us to stand up
And stand out
From one another
We are not the same
Every woman can wear a size 8
And will still be different shapes
Some people are tall
Some people are short
Take the time to embrace
What makes people different
Do it as a way to appreciate it
And not as a way to copy it
To copy is to compete
You will forget why you are unique
You never want to lose yourself
Because you may never
Find yourself ever again
Being a person who follow trends
Regardless of a person
Trying to be the same
Least common factors
Will always remain
Apply this analogy to snowflakes
In your mind allow it to resonate
When we realize that being different
Is actually us being ourselves
It’s a blessing like nothing else
Differences help to make
This world beautiful
If everything were the same
We would not have things like the
Rainbow it requires
Various colors to make it complete
Even roses come in different colors
One life touches another
Different life stories with many pages
That are to encourage and inspire
It’s how God gets His glory
We must be the person
Who God called us to be
We are not the same
That will never change
And you know what
It’s okay
Missing You Always
Some days are harder than others
Birthdays, holidays, a child’s birth
Wondering how it would be
If you were here with us
I really wish that you
Were on Earth
February 2nd is your birthday
February 3rd 1997 is the day and year
That you left from here
So many things have taken place
Both good and bad
No matter what
I miss seeing your face
It’s 2017
20 years have gone by
Even now I still cry
Memories help me to keep going
Like the circus blizzard of March 1980
5 months pregnant
Walking in the snow to
Come to get me off of the school bus
Millions of reasons why you have
And will always will be my hero
Hoping and praying that I am able
To be at least a fraction of
A person that you were
I miss you
Not just on Mother’s Day
Not just on Thanksgiving Day
Not just on Christmas Day
But every single day
There will always be
A huge hole in my heart
A band aid nor a first aid kit
Can fix the damage
It’s still hard to manage
Jesus has been my fence
Helping me with the healing
I feel so blue
Everyday that I live
I miss you mom
You instilled in me
So many things
That are very helpful
Right to this very day
Which have been blessings
I won’t deny my feelings
I am human
I don’t know every answer
I don’t always understand
All I know is everything
Works as part of God’s plan
Including those He chooses
To call home to Heaven
I continue to trust Him
Grateful for the time
We did spend
Thankful that you raised me
To know God Almighty
Because of that I believe and know
That I will see you again
Mom I miss you and I love you
Matthew 5:4
Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
