Star
by Bryan Adams
There's a road - long and winding
The lights are blindin' - but it gets there
Don't give up - don't look back...
There's a silver linin' - it's out there somewhere
Everybody wants an answer - everybody needs a friend
We all need a shinin' star on which we can depend
N so tonight were gonna wish upon a star
We never wished upon before - (to find what you're looking for)
There'll be times - in your life
Ya when you be dancin' n shit - but you ain't gettin' it
But don't get disillusioned - no, don't expect too much
Cuz if what you have is all you can get - just keep on
Tryin - it just ain't happened yet
Everybody wants ta be winner - everybody has a dream
We all need a shinin' star when things ain't what they seem
So tonight were gonna wish upon a star
We never wished upon before - (gotta get where you're
Headed for)
Everybody wants some kindness - everybody needs a break
We all need a shinin' star when things get hard to take
So tonight were gonna wish upon a star
We never wished upon before

Tonight
I remember the times we spent together
on those drives
We had a million questions
all about our lives
and when we got to New York
everything felt right
I wish you were here with me
tonight

Survivors
Collin Raye
You've been my best friend all these years
You've kept holding on to me through all the trials and the tears
Only you and I could know all the sacrifices
That let this feeling grow.
There were so many times we could have said goodbye
We could have called it quits but, honey, you and I --
We're survivors - we made through the storm.
When I've needed shelter, I've found it in your arms.
Survivors - in love enough to fight
Together in this thing for life
There were times I lost my mind -
Took some wrong turns you got me back in line.
There were times you lost control
But I stood by you I loved you, heart and soul.
When faith was tested and dreams were fading fast,
We held each other close until the rain had passed.
We're survivors - we made through the storm.
When I've needed shelter, I've found it in your arms.
Survivors - in love enough to fight
Together in this thing for life.
A little time and tenderness
Has seen us through the years.
We'll still be side by side
When the final smoke has cleared.
We're survivors - we made through the storm.
When I've needed shelter, I've found it in your arms.
Survivors - in love enough to fight
Together in this thing for life. . .
Together in this thing for life.

Conservative vs. Liberal
If you ever wondered what side of the fence you sit on, this is a great test!
If a conservative doesn't like guns, he doesn't buy one.
If a liberal doesn't like guns, he wants all guns outlawed.
If a conservative is a vegetarian, he doesn't eat meat.
If a liberal is a vegetarian, he wants all meat products banned for everyone.
If a conservative is down-and-out, he thinks about how to better his situation.
A liberal wonders who is going to take care of him.
If a conservative doesn't like a talk show host, he switches channels.
Liberals demand that those they don't like be shut down.
If a conservative is a non-believer, he doesn't go to church.
A liberal non-believer wants any mention of God and religion silenced. (Unless it's a foreign religion, of course!)
If a conservative decides he needs health care, he goes about shopping for it, or may choose a job that provides it.
A liberal demands that the rest of us pay for his.
If a conservative reads this, he will mention it so his friends can have a good laugh.
A liberal will be outraged it because he or she is "offended".
Well, I put it on my blog.

Property Laws of a Toddler
1. If I like it, it's mine.
2. If it's in my hand, it's mine.
3. If I can take it from you, it's mine.
4. If I had it a little while ago, it's mine.
5. If it's mine, it must never appear to be yours in any way.
6. If I'm doing or building something, all of the pieces are mine.
7. If it looks like mine, it's mine.
8. If I saw it first, it's mine.
9. If you are playing with something and you put it down, it automatically becomes mine.

Farmer and the Sheriff
A sheriff stops at a ranch in rural Kentucky and talks with an old farmer. He tells the farmer, "I need to inspect your ranch for illegal grown drugs."
The old farmer says, "Okay, but don't go in that field over there."
The sheriff verbally explodes, "Mister, I have the authority of the Sheriff's Department with me."

Cry Me a River
Now you say you're lonely
You cry the whole night through
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you
Now you say you're sorry
For bein' so untrue
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you
You drove me, nearly drove me out of my head
While you never shed a tear
Remember, I remember all that you said
Told me love was too plebeian
Told me you were through with me and
Now you say you love me
Well, just to prove you do
Come on and cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you
I cried a river over you
I cried a river over you
I cried a river over you

For Every Hill I Had To Climb
For every hill I had to climb,
For every stone that bruised my feet,
For all the blood and sweat and grime,
For blinding storms and burning heat,
My heart sings but a grateful song--
Those were the things that made me strong.
For all the heartaches and the tears,
For all the anguish and the pain,
For gloomy days and fruitless years
And for the hopes that lived in vain;
I do give thanks, for now I know,
These were the things that helped me grow.
'Tis not the softer things of life
Which stimulate our will to strive,
But bleak adversity and strife
Do most to keep our will alive.
Over rose-strewn paths the weaklings creep,
But brave hearts dare to climb the steep.

You Are Love
Once a wandering ne'er-do-well
Just a vagrant roaming fellow
I went my way
Life was just a joke to tell
Like a lonely Punchinello
My role was gay
But I knew the joke was aimless
Time went on, I liked the game less
For you see
Somewhere lurked a spark divine
And I kept wondering whether mine
Would come to me.

When Answers Aren't Enough There Is Jesus
You have faced mountains of desperation.
You have climbed, you have fought, you have won.
But this valley that lies coldly before you,
Casts a shadow you cannot overcome.
Just when you thought you had it all together.
You knew every verse to get you through.
But this time all the sorrow broke more than just your heart.
And reciting all those verses just won't do.
When answers aren't enough, there is Jesus.
He is more than just an answer to your prayer.
And your heart will find a safe and peaceful refuge.
When answers aren't enough, He is there.
Instead of asking why did it happen?
Think of where it can lead you from here.
And as your pain is slowly easing, you will find
A greater reason to live your life triumphant through the tears.

Make Believe
Only make believe I love you,
Only make believe that you love me.
Others find peace of mind in pretending,
Couldn't you?
Couldn't I?
Couldn't we?
Make believe our lips are blending
In a phantom kiss, or two, or three.
Might as well make believe I love you,
For to tell the truth I do

As Long as You Love Me
Although loneliness has always been a friend of mine
I'm leaving my life in your hands
People say I'm crazy and that I am blind
Risking it all in a glance
How you got me blind is still a mystery
I can't get you out of my head
Don't care what is written in your history
As long as you're here with me

Far from the Madding Airport Crowd
Today it was the madness of travel - and then to work. I never sleep well in a motel the night before I fly. Actually, today it was better since I did not have to fly until 8 a.m. Usually, I fly earlier -- 6:30 or 7:30 a.m. -- and it makes it much more interesting getting to the airport - flying - driving 2 1/2 hours to work - then working the rest of the day and late to make up time. Most of the time on the driving portion, I find myself starting to doze and have to stop and try to get a power nap in order to continue without mishap. Today was no different -- I stopped at a Sheetz station to get food - then across the street to McDonald's for an Ice Mocha (nonfat, no whip, extra drizzle). But that only got me to the outskirts of Winchester and I had to stop and sleep a little.

I’ll Remember Tonight for 1,001 Tomorrows
Pat Boone
I'll remember tonight
That lovely melody we danced to
The sweet confusion when we met
We never spoke a word
And yet we knew
I'll remember your smile
The way it warmed me in the moonlight
The way my heart began to melt
The strange affection that I felt for you
To think that only a moment ago
We were no more than strangers
And now my heart tells me that we are strangers no more
So what ever be false
Our little world of joys and sorrows
I'll remember tonight
For a thousand and one tomorrows
To think that only a moment ago
We were no more than strangers
And now my heart tells me that we are strangers no more
So what ever be false
Our little world of joys and sorrows
I'll remember tonight
For a thousand and one tomorrows

Fear Not My Child
by Carman
In myself I failed the Lord
Then was afraid to try once more
That fire in my soul had fled
That's when Jesus came and said
My spirit gives the strength you need
to raise you up and to succeed
and for vision in the night
to you I'll give these words of light

Love Prose
...My love for you is deathless, it seems to bind me with mighty cables that nothing but Omnipotence can break.... The memories of blissful moments I have spent with you come creeping over me...something whispers to me...that I shall return to my loved ones unharmed. If I do not,...never forget how much I love you; and when my last breath escapes me, it will whisper your name. But...if the dead can come back to this earth and flit unseen around those they loved, I shall always be near you - in the gladdest days and in the darkest night...always, always; and if there be a soft breeze upon your cheek, it shall be my breath; as the cool air fans your temple, it shall be my spirit passing by....Do not mourn me dead; think I am gone and wait for me, for we shall meet again...

Moods
The Moods of A Woman
An angel of truth and a dream of fiction,
A woman is a bundle of contradiction.
She's afraid of a wasp, will scream at a mouse,
But will tackle a stranger alone in the house.
Sour as vinegar, sweet as a rose,
She'll kiss you one minute, then turn up her nose.
She'll win you in rage, enchant you in silk;
She'll be stronger than brandy, milder than milk.
At times she'll be vengeful, merry and sad;
She'll hate you like poison, and love you like mad.

Tears Are a Language God Understands
Often you wonder why tears come into your eyes
And burdens seem to be much more than you can stand,
But God is standing near. He sees your falling tears,
And tears are a language God understands.
God sees the tears of a brokenhearted soul.
He sees your tears and hears them when they fall.
God weeps along with man and He takes him by the hand.
Tears are a language God understands.
When grief has left you low it causes tears to flow,
When things have not turned out the way that you had planned,
But God won't forget you -- His promises are true
And tears are a language that my God understands
God sees the tears of a brokenhearted soul.
He sees your tears and hears them when they fall.
God weeps along with man and He takes him by the hand.
Tears are a language God understands.
Tears are a language that my God, He understands.

I've been told
that I don't write enough -- hmmmmmm...
It's not that I don't have things to say, necessarily - only that the time required to put things into words (well-written words) is often just too great. I'm already feeling overwhelmed by all I have to do - and I find I am at times reluctant to take a couple of vacation days because of the intensity of the load.
And it's not just the office work - I have a home to maintain. Housekeeping has never been my strong suit and I find that between the music commitments and the travel, things have totally gotten away from me in the last ten years. (I suppose my ex-husband would say that happened a LONG time ago - not in the last ten years.)

I Am Loved
My scars are hidden by the face I wear"
He said, "My child, my scars go deeper
And it was love for you that put them there."
Forgiven - I repeat it - I'm forgiven!
Clean before my Lord I freely stand
Forgiven, I can dare forgive my brother
Forgiven, I reach out to take your hand.
I am loved, I am loved
I can risk loving you
For the One who knows me best
Loves me most
I am loved, you are loved
Won't you please take me hand
We are free to love each other
We are loved”

Thoughts on Being Quiet.....from Ann Voskamp
Do we keep our lives loud because noise obscures our heart cries? The cries that we are cavernously empty and are famished for love, that we are lonely and nothing on this earth will satisfy, that we are wounded and we are weak and we hurt and we need help.
We want to be known, to be seen, to be accepted...Why do we wear our hearts stark naked on our sleeves when Mary wisely pondered all these things in her heart? Why make all that is private, public?
What of seeking God’s counsel first, God’s counsel alone? What is sacred when all is spoken? There is a “time to be silent and a time to speak” (Ecc. 3:7) and the time to speak is always after the time of silence. Who can hear the voice of God but those who have times of sealed lips?
Silence can transform: in silence, this body that is His temple, becomes sanctuary, the quiet of the holy. Only when the interior of a life becomes a chapel can the outward life echo with the clear Word of the Lord. Sealed lips set the soul as a seal upon His heart.
"In quietness and trust is your strength." (Isaiah 30:15)

Hair - yet again
Yes, I did finally get the hair cut --
Let's see, when was it we were talking about hair -- December? November?
I did finally decide to do something and called for an appointment right away - before I could change my mind. Since I was in Winchester at the time, I called Michael, the guy I used to go to a few years ago before Rhonda started doing my hair in Gas City.

Deliver Me
I need deliverance from
today -
but nothingness;
inertia,
skies gray
and windless;
no sun,
no rain,
no stab of joy
or pain,
no strong regret,
no reaching after,
no tears,
no laughter,
no black despair,
no bliss.
Deliver me
today
...from this.

Something's Running Interference
Some days, especially during the winter months, I feel the words burning in my heart - soul - brain - whatever you want to call it. The idea is there, the concept is developing, but the words will not come to me to even explain what is waiting there to be said.
It's not that I don't recognize the symptom - I have always had this feeling when there was poetry to be written. Burning, burning, burning, until finally the spark ignites to flame and the words form.

Oh, but I don't worry about that much,

I'm drinking from my saucer,
'Cause my cup has overflowed.

Heavy on my mind today heavy
On my mind in every way
Your mem'ry took my mind and went away
You're heavy on my mind today

Let me use disappointment as material for patience.
Let me use success as material for thankfulness.
Let me use trouble as material for perseverance.
Let me use danger as material for courage.
Let me use reproach as material for long-suffering.
Let me use praise as material for humility.
Let me use pleasures as material for temperance.
Let me use pain as material for endurance.

Just One More Thing About the Hair!
I enjoyed the great dialogue about the hair -- have not yet taken the plunge but did have a couple of inches cut off (so far). It's amazing what a difference even that little bit of a cut makes in the drying time. I told my Gas City hair lady, Rhonda, that if I ever decided to go drastic, I'd have to make a fast appointment here and just go get it done - not to be surprised if I showed up some day with much shorter hair!

Allah or Jesus?
by Rick Mathes
I (Rick Mathes) attended my annual training session that's required for maintaining my state prison security clearance. During the training session there was a presentation by three speakers representing the Roman Catholic, Protestant and Muslim faiths, who explained each of their belief systems.
I was particularly interested in what the Islamic Imam had to say. The Imam gave a great presentation of the basics of Islam, complete with a video.
After the presentations, time was provided for questions and answers.

Hair - Quotes and other things...
The comment from Lavon which includes the statement that my hair should not be a part of my persona -- this quote seems to apply:
Hair brings one's self-image into focus; it is vanity's proving ground. Hair is terribly personal, a tangle of mysterious prejudices. ~ Shana Alexander
Of course, I think my long hair is the same part of my persona that her short hair is to hers... but I have known many women with long hair who never regretted cutting it short. Lavon doesn't have to fuss with her hair much when it is short - but I would still have to roll mine to help it lay down. My hair is VERY curly - and not a nice curl, as so many have. It's a bit of an angry curl - tight and fuzzy. I roll it on rollers to straighten it!

Hair - 3

Hair - one more time
So far, three men and one woman voted and it is 4 to 0 to keep it long.
That's usually the way it is. The women are much more likely to say "Cut it OFF!" and the men ALL say "Keep it long, for goodness sake!" Of course, the men don't know what it's like to sleep on rollers (hopefully) - but I've done it so long, it's no longer an issue for me!

To Cut or Not to Cut (that is the question)
I've been told -- I guess it must have been years ago -- that no woman over the age of 35 should have long hair. Now, I'm WAY past that - still have my long hair but have been thinking about cutting at least some of it off.
The pros would be -- easier to take care of on "doin'-the-hair-thing" wash days . . . it would actually dry in an 8-hour night of sleeping on rollers . . . it wouldn't look terrible . . . it might not frizz so badly when it's humid out . . .
And the cons -- I've had long hair for a very long time and do like it . . . I only have to wash it once a week now and I would have to wash it more often if it were shorter . . . I wouldn't be able to say "Must be the hair" when someone looks at me twice (lol) . . . it might look okay but it would be SHORT....er.

Make Me Bold - by "KenyaDoc" Michael Johnson
Ephesians 6:19 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel.
On every topic I speak with ease
Whether news or entertainment
But when it comes to faith I freeze
And this I can’t explain it
I am utterly confounded to speak
About the faith that makes me whole
I feel unable - yes, even weak -
To say Christ saved my soul
I believe it is I speak the best
On things clear and familiar
But when my faith is put to the test
I am so afraid of failure
I don’t know how to explain belief
I’m not sure where to begin
With other topics I find relief
How can I speak of sin
Holy Spirit please do give me
The boldness I require
To tell others you forgive me
Then I’ll do what you desire
Don’t let words escape my mind
Don’t let fear my faith control
Help me read your Word and find
All I need to make me bold
Psalm 119:11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.
Psalm 119:16 I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word.

Are you absolutely sure there are no absolutes?
A while ago, David Samuels wrote in New York Times magazine—and I quote—"It is a shared if unspoken premise of the world that most of us inhabit that absolutes do not exist and that people who claim to have found them are crazy."
Being the "crazy" person that I am, I honestly don't understand the following tenants of the truly tolerant like Mr. Samuels.

It Couldn't Be Done
Somebody said that it couldn't be done,
But he with a chuckle replied
That "maybe it couldn't," but he would be one
Who wouldn't say so till he'd tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn't be done, and he did it.
Somebody scoffed: "Oh, you'll never do that;
At least no one ever has done it";
But he took off his coat and he took off his hat,
And the first thing we knew he'd begun it.
With a lift of his chin and a bit of a grin,
Without any doubting or quiddit,
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn't be done, and he did it.
There are thousands to tell you it cannot be done,
There are thousands to prophesy failure;
There are thousands to point out to you, one by one,
The dangers that wait to assail you.
But just buckle in with a bit of a grin,
Just take off your coat and go to it;
Just start to sing as you tackle the thing
That "cannot be done," and you'll do it.

I Have to Live With Myself . . .
I have to live with myself, and so,
I want to be fit for myself to know.
I want to be able as days go by
Always to look myself straight in the eye.
I don't want to stand with the setting sun
And hate myself for the things I've done.
I don't want to keep on a closet shelf
A lot of secrets about myself
And fool myself as I come and go
Into thinking that nobody else will know
The kind of man I really am.
I don't want to dress myself up in sham.
I never can hide myself from me;
I see what others may never see.
I know what others may never know;
I never can fool myself, and so,
Whatever happens, I want to be
