Short Prayer for World Aids Day
Dear God,
We thank you for your blessings upon us. We pray for strength and healing for those who suffer from HIV/AIDS that their lives can be enjoyed and their suffering minimized. We praise you for your mighty works and for inspiring the counsellors, caregivers, doctors and nurses who assist persons infected with this deadly virus. Heavenly Father, we also pray to you for humility and understanding that we may not judge or persecute these sufferers and instead accept them and pray for them. Dear Lord, we praise you for your continued mercies and seek to live your favor.
Amen

POEM: HIV is killing WE
Come, my people, can’t you see
Think about how your life will be
If you are diagnosed with HIV
We’re singing to tell you to be wise
We’re asking for you to condomise
We’re praying that you’ll be abstinent
Please be faithful to your partner for good intent
HIV/AIDS affects both young and old
Just listen to some sad stories told
Of a pregnant woman plush and lovely
And then a baby born with HIV
My people, it’s time for you to listen
Protection and self control is what I’m wishing
Please don’t disregard my simple words
HIV is far too rampant in this world

Short Words for 11-30-2011
Raising children is not easy. It takes time and patience. I try but some days I get frustrated and yell at them. My children are nice and full of manners. They are each bright in their own way and are full of energy. I love them and would like to see the best for them. However, I know that while I can impart the knowledge that I have, it is still up to them to implement it.

Getting to Know Me
I know who I am and what I like. Many people struggle with knowing themselves and until they can truly become one with themselves, they won't know where to go. It hurts me to hear that young women are increasingly becoming involved in illegal drugs. That is truly hard to swallow.
I know that life is stressful right now and people barely want to help. I still feel that there are other ways to survive. There's a commercial for Allstate where the announcer mentions that someone is on a 'Ramen Noodle' diet. Three Ramen noodles are $1.05 in the BVI. If you can afford one can of vienna sausage that's still $0.90 or sardine or tuna fish, you can mix it up. Add one carrot, one tomato or some beets and it's even more colorful. We have to find ways to survive.
I think these problems go very deep. Drug abuse may stem from depression which could be caused by a host of issues. We have some way to seek help without turning to the bottle or the pill or the pipe. This is harder when there are children involved. People are getting more desperate and make life more uncomfortable for many of us. I see young men begging for $1.00 and this sickens me. However, I do not know the circumstance. It could be an untreated mental issue or an adverse reaction to a legal or illegal drug.
There's a lot of work for the leaders and community workers. However, we as a community have to teach our children right from wrong and instill solid values in them. If we do not intercede now for the little ones then there will be much more begging and getting high in the future.

POEM: As It Comes
piece of me
is broken
but the other half is good
although I may be soft-spoken
I may just be in a bad mood
while I stand with eyes open
my mind is closed to the world
I'm never the master's token
cause I will fight for the boys and girls
I may not be much in sight
but never underestimade a fighter
I have a vision to shin a light
that makes everyone's days brighter

POEM: Your Words
I'm posting
but not because I'm boasting
or enjoy roasting
but cause I've got mad love to share
to the world I care for
I want to inspire and uplift
find ways to solve rifts
cause that's what words are for
to lift, encourage or implore
so use yours today
to share something positive in what you say
