THE GIFT FREELY GIVEN

-
There is a a gift we often take for granted and see as our right. Some people go as far as starting their day and  living their lives like the world revolves around them, mind clouded with  expectations of how things should go as planned. They speak of  tomorrow or the future like that is  all needed to scale through to the aspiring future. 

No apologies for being religious but after God created man, one action brought man into being which I call the gift (breath of life). God breathed life into man and alas man came alive and all every other thing was set in motion. Lets pause here and think of all what man did after the gift was freely handed to him. Did man ever thought of the origin of this gift before disobeying? That is exactly the nature of man, forgetful and occupied with our ambition and desires without any thought of what happens when this gift is taken away from us. 

I don't know who is reading this but please take note that without this gift, we are nothing but empty vessel to be discarded. Here the soul and spirit carries on to tell your story to the giver of life. They will explain in details how you used the gift freely given to you. The trillionaires, politicians , kings and ruler, peasants and nobles of this world will all give account of their sojourn on earth.

Unspoken Words

 In the tapestry of life, where words are threads delicately woven, A careless utterance can unleash storms, hearts broken, spirits trodden. Yet, the silence of unspoken sweetness, a lamentable refrain, Leaves regrets lingering, like echoes in the rain. Speak, oh speak! Let not affection lie dormant in your chest, For tomorrow's sun may rise, but yesterday's words find no rest. In the garden of moments, sow the seeds of kindness, let them bloom, So the soul may dance amidst the petals, in love's fragrant perfume. Let not praise and admiration linger in the shadows of doubt, But like stars in the night sky, let them sparkle, let them shout. For in the tapestry of memories, let the echoes of your words resound, A symphony of affection, in hearts forever bound.
