Daily Prompt: Hopeful

I want to be hopeful that as today ends that great things will be coming my way this new year.

And that everything I need will be presented to me and I will live my life the way God wants me to.

That  I will continue to see the greatest inside of me and to trust my gut when things seem off.

That I will continue to make the right decisions and not let worldly things distract me from my true purpose in life.

I’m so hopeful that everything will be ten times more great than they already are.

Nothing but positivity flowing through me that I could just burst with happiness and light the sky with fireworks.

Hopeful that all dreams will come true  and more people will be believe that they can do the impossible if they just believe just a tiny bit.

Being alive is a hopeful moment every morning when you wake up and realize you  have another chance to make things right with your life.

That yesterday wasn’t the end and your problems won’t as big as you thought they were,

being hopeful gives me so much joy that I hope that I will be hopeful for the rest of my life.

Daily Prompt:Mope

I don’t want to mope around about the things in life that I can’t control.

I don’t want to waste time moping around when I could be smiling and having a good time.

I don’t want to see anyone moping around in life because, things are not going the way they planned.

Moping won’t solve my problems or yours so let it go and, push away the negativity.

And embrace the possibility that life will get better if you just believe and trust that everything will work out no matter what.

Sleep

not enough time to really enjoy it for long.

Long hours staying up end with aching eyes and tired bodies trying to make it to their bed, but even when their heads hit the pillow they still some how wake up in the middle of the morning.

Hoping for more rest as the vacation comes to an end and your waiting for that gap in time to come so that you can read or see what’s going on around you.

Merry Christmas

I hope everyone had a great day and realized today was not just about gifts but spending time with the ones they love and cherishing the memories made today.

Some of us know today is about Jesus and celebrating his birthday and realizing life wouldn’t be as great if it wasn’t for him.

Today is great whether you celebrate it for the lord or for just spending time with the people you love.

Just be grateful that you got to take the time out and spend some love and joy.

Daily Prompt: Discover

It took me a long time to discover that if I wanted life to get better.

I had to make some changes and right now I feel like I’m being tested so hard.

That my mind and heart are fighting for something to make sense.

The noise so loud it’s taking all the strength in me to hold it in.

I want to be able to discover so many things in life but, I have to get pass this moment to be able to get to the other side.

Where the noise is no more and it is silent except for the softly playing music that helps me escape.

And I start to believe that what I know now will lead me to discover the real truth I’ve been searching for.

Any day now I will smile back to this moment and breath in the fresh air and be grateful that I went through this all.

For where I will be will be great and well deserved.

Daily Prompt: Calm

Keep calm the holidays are fastly arriving and the joy is all around.

Your heart is beating calmly before all your family members arrive.

And then you realize there is so much left to do.

And your heart starts to beat a little faster and you feet start to run around a little faster.

And the calm before the storm is over

And you realize there is no going back at this time.

Your calm is over and it’s time to close your eyes and just take deep breaths and hope it all works out.

What’s a couple of days of panic, good sleep, and cheeks hurting laughter going to do to you.

Keep the hope of calmness in your heart and maybe just maybe it will all work out.
