Well hmmm those were very interesting poems and were definitely touchy to read (:
I know you guys are all probably mugging and stuff and won't have time for this but i have come across this really beautiful prayer, i know many of you'll are not catholic or christian but the beauty of it is that this prayer reflects the way we should lead our lives and i thought it would be nice when you guys come online for a break and stuff to read something like this i find it very uplifting and thought provoking so yeah. Read it, tell me what you think (:
Lord, teach me to be gentile in all events of my life; in dissapointment, in the thoughtlessness of others; in the insincerity of those whom i have trusted; in the unfaithfulness of those whom i have relied.
Let me forget myself, so that i may enjoy the happiness of others. Let me hide the little pain and heartache, so that i may be the only one to suffer from them.
Teach me O Lord to profit from the suffering that comes across my path. Let me so use it that it may mellow me, not harden nor embitter me; that it may make me patient, not irritable; that it may make me broad in my forgiveness, not narrow, proud or overbearing.
May no one be less good for having come within my influence; no one less pure, less true, less kind, less noble for having travelled with me on our journey towards eternal life.
As i meet my cross one after another, let me whisper a word of love to You, Lord. May my life be lived in the supernatural, full of power for good and strong in its puropose of sanctity.
Amen!
Given that the last paragraph was rather religious the rest i feel is very reflective of the way we should lead our lives, a summary of the life of someone who is pure of heart mind and soul. I personally feel it is something i should work towards and i know i have much to make up for hmmm hope you guys think the same...
Lastly i would like to end of with a wonderful quote that my sister told me...
You can muffle the drum, or loosen the strings of the lyre, but who shall command the skylark not to sing?
(Do you not wish to be like the skylark?)
Adam
