My Days Here

My Days Here

-          By Elgee Davies

The remainder of my days on earth…

I will not be limited by resources.

I will be free to be free and unchained.

I will not to be governed by what I cannot do but rather by what I can.

My actions will always be in the best interest of God, my family, myself and friends.

In all things I will always learn to respect others.

In all I do, I will seek to be kind, gentle, honest and genuine.

When I am gone, I will be remembered as a man among men.

A Man who made other men great

I will be remembered as one who lived in unity with others.

A person whom gave more than he got,

And offered more then he received.

I will need to have lived a free life

Free of any regret, hurt, shame or fear

A life free of ill, lack and why’s.

My time will be invested in Pureness and Virtuous

My hours spent Refining and Enhancing

My days spent Increasing yet Generous

My nights spent Resting in Peace

I will be remembered as

The man who lived a complete life. 

When it Rains...

The saying goes that “when it rains, it pours”, and as we are familiar with what it means, the truth of the matter is that it is not the actual pour that seems to get us down but more our reaction to the showers of trials soaking us.

I was privileged to have experienced quite a down pour of misfortune recently. I remember how while experiencing these showers of obstacles, it seemed to have weighed me down as I wanted to wish them away. Truth be told, light only emerged amidst the clouds once I decided to take everything in the stride and work on solutions as a pose to the problems. That helped me to deal with everything, but I still felt a little discouraged by it all. It was only once I consciously decided to not let the trials seem like their pouring that I was able to dance in the rain and actually enjoy dealing with them.

Life’s Good moment,
Yes, it tends to POUR when it Rains, but we will only truly start to enjoy dancing in the showers when we make peace with the fact that we will get wet along the way. And as soon we realize that life is not about avoiding issues or trials, but more about finding peace amidst them. We can master the art of playing in the rain even if it starts to POUR. Life’s Good… when you decide to believe it.
