faiths are those times, instances when you've got something you've got planned
and your better half aka wife/spouse/best friend knows you that well
knows your plan is the plan to get yourself to a better sense of worth
sense of accomplishment. those self worths, accomplisments, they come in all
shapes and sizes
the here and now between you and that other person and then the
date later on that is part of the short term goal, a large goal yet its about
faith
faith is that knowledge of the so far so good tried and true that in the face
of the written words of "your nutty, no good, bad" by anyone you've never met
face to face or maybe you had, its that their written or spoken word when their
actual
face is not there in front of you, the recognition of whom and why those word
are said,
its your own written words, spoken words, your own actions and where they come
from
those acts of faith that you come up with for someone else including yourself
that usually even when the wind of words are negative about you, that act of
faith
is expressed by thd person your chatting with in type, in person, in voice etc.
the
person you are meaning to be with or writing to. nothing really stopped me
from writing what i wanted to about a friend whether she knew i was or not last
summer 2003
and nothing stopped the person written to from doing what that person gone and
did.
this year its a act of faith that i again wrote, i again said what i said,
generally known or not
and this year, despite last year, the "no i don't want to go" "it ain't going to
happen" atttitude
spoken word that i've heard for a week now is well, when said about tomorrow and
that act of faith
ive been writing about, its that no said now that to me (how bout you) means the
world of
success or failure. a question of ability to carry out what i say i can and do,
my confidence
ive got plenty of that, its the unwillingnees to outwardly speak "yes i want to,
it is going to happen"
from that spouse/friend/best friend that is spoken now, here and now, abou
tomorrow that
well as i've said it's like being with a stubborn toad, or is it? are you coming
with me tomorrow? i ask
and i hear "no". its as if if i hear yes, then the here and now is as that
other person wants, needs, craves
will be attained. why speak of tomorrow when you've got the here and now.
personally i think to speak of tomorrow
is qutie fine by any means. yes, frustrations set in or seemingly so, that
ability to show a fist, show a smile
hit a wall, hug someone, talk with somoene about anything but tomorrow, that
means the world to that someone else
with you now, not tomorrow for its the here and now that is a deciding factor
about tomorrow.
yestedays, people you've been with or not alone or with that special somoeone,
the things you said and did
being a part of the "no i don't want to go" 'bout tomorrow, well remember, my
hands, your hands, many hands
get dirty and clean along the way. if its a question of well there you are
carrying on about this and that, faith
and directing it towards someone else, remember, sometimes even words like these
can mean the world to someone
else even when you, like i have been writing about that special someone that
says "no i dont' want to". again it's about faith
i want to believe in faith, have to believe in faith, not by threat but by Gods
own way of saying, in peace faith is able to be believed in
and to have faith based upon someones threat and or promise, based upon peace
and or promise, faith is faith.
man, i want to rock your world, plain and simple and it oughta be simple as said
as done. sometimes, there are things in this world
that has to be done with your special someone that if not done so, well then
that time and place of tomorrow never comes with you in it
where you want to be for that spoken "no i don't want to" is that no faith
attitude. are you looking for that smile, that happiness
that would turn your nos to yes. well say yes first and believe it or not, that
smile, that happiness, that emotion, that acknowledgement
of you are there, i know so, i am here with you, it happens that fast, that
quick then and there or maybe awhile later, but it always i believe
starts with yes i want to. no rehearsals here, this is the show, tomorrow there
is the same stage here and the other stage somewhere else
up the road, down the street, around the corner and in front of and with anyone
there, all things come full circle.
