Why Not Instantaneous


Stories.
Respect comes from these.
Understanding.
Love.
Peace.
Why?
Do these happen.
After the stories.
Why not.
Instantaneously.
Before stories.
Before understanding.
Why not.
Understand.
We all need.
Love.
Shown.
Given.
Enacted.
Received.
Love all.
Before.
The fact.
Before.
Knowledge.
Before.
Notions.
Love.
Just love.
Give it.
Regardless.
No matter the case.
Love.
Hard concept.
Harder.
Application.
Like mother has.
For the unborn child.
We need this.
All of us.
I need this.
For all of you.
Given to me.
Graciously.
To give.
To you.

Accomplishment Displaces Exhaustion


My muscles twitch.
For the ache.
They need it.
The ache.
It's how they know.
They were used well.
They were appreciated.
And for that appreciation.
They will grow.
In size and strength.
The ache.
It's encouragement.
For the muscles.
To keep going.
I do not fail them.
And.
They do not fail me.
Thank you Father.
For such a beautiful design.

Today.
I worked.
Hard.
Really hard.
At work.
I was exhausted.
Because of the work.
But.
The glory that my eyes saw.
The end result.
Of all my toils.
All my labor.
Was worth the pain.
Beginning, Middle and Beyond the End.
Such beauty.
In work.
My eyes saw it.
They yearn.
To see it again.
The fruits.
Of my labor.
It's like art.
It draws me in.
The ache.
The toil.
The labor.
The beauty.
The end result.
The Accomplishment.
Displaces.
The Exhaustion.
Lets.
Do it again.

The Extemporaneous Harmony


Today was a day of getting through it.
It was a day in which I didn't want to do any of it.
School.
Work.
Walk.
Drive.
ETC.
It's days like this that I live for.
Strange.
I know.
It's days like today in which I must truly challenge
my self.
It takes everything in me to do a simple task.
On days like today.
But.
I must do more than just .
The task.
I am called to do more than just .
The task.
(whatever that task might be)
I must go beyond what is actually.
My self.
My self wanting to be lethargic on this certain day.
This day I moved past my lethargical self
and
Past my complacent self.
I had joy in what I did.
(honestly forced joy in the beginning)
Brain dead from three classes in a row.
Left me not wanting to go to work.
But I must.
And
I did it with a smile on my face.
I forced my self past what I wanted.
And moved on to what I needed to do.
This is no easy task.
But.
It was accomplished this day.

I felt rewarded for this new feat of mine.
Because of the beauty in which I encountered.
On the drive home.
BIRDS!
They were covering the sky.
A pitch black streak
To contrast the light blue troposphere.
Above.
These birds danced.
A brilliant dance.
A beautiful dance.
Far above my head.
They were like a Ribbon.
Traveling with the wind.
So extravagant.
That is not the only part of my reward.
These birds just happened to be moving.
In sync with the music currently.
Pulsating.
Into my ear canal.
They were both in perfect harmony.
A perfect symphony.
A ballet quite possibly.
This was spontaneous
And
Mesmerizing.
The Pair of red lights ahead.
Distracted my gaze.
Only for short.
This extemporaneous harmony.
Was a gift.
In my opinion.
(which is all that matters in this day story)
From the One.
"Where all divisions cease to be".
Thank you for that.
Obedience.
In the spirit.
Guides me.
I must follow.

A Quiet Day


Today was a quiet day.
It was a day full of accomplishments
and silence.
I enjoyed today.
Thank you for it.
