I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings


The free bird thinks of another breeze
and the trade winds soft through the sighing trees
and the fat worms waiting on a dawn-bright lawn
and he names the sky his own.

But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams
his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream
his wings are clipped and his feet are tied
so he opens his throat to sing

The caged bird sings
with a fearful trill
of things unknown
but longed for still
and his tune is heard
on the distant hill
for the caged bird
sings of freedom.

IT TAKES ALL KINDS

KICK START YOUR WEEK WITH A QUOTE A WEEK

“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”

MADE YOU SMILE

                                                           

STOP BEING A VICTIM


         

THE UNDERLYING TRUTHS

Why focus on your trauma? Why let it beat you? Why spend hours upon hours every day/night going over what happened and wishing it hadn’t?
There is no point to that. The point is as a person you got through it. You pushed yourself beyond that measure, picked yourself back up, and came back stronger then ever. You still eat, sleep, and function as a person. Laughter is not the opposite to sadness, happiness is, and no one expects you to be happy after coming out the other side of something traumatic. But laughter? Jokes? No matter how dark, self deprecating, or even offensive they are? Those help. If you can laugh at yourself, one day even make cruel jokes about what you’ve been through? It makes it seem a little less scary. I myself have a fear of thunder due to traumatic events, but I make fun of myself and jokingly criticise myself into taking a deep breath, blocking out the noise, and pushing myself through every day. Strength isn’t a measure of how much you’ve healed or gotten past what you’ve been through, strength is measured by the fact you still get up and do your thing every damn day instead of letting it beat you. It’s okay to have weak moments, it’s okay to take days to yourself when you just can’t anymore, but don’t ever consider yourself weak. You’re still here. Still fighting. And getting stronger every single day.

FINALLY IT'S FRIDAY "FEED YOUR STARVING SOUL SOME POETRY"

JOHN DONNE

When I Died Last, And, Dear, I Die As Often As From Thee I Go Though It Be But An Hour Ago And Lovers Hours Be Full Eternity.
I Would Not That Death Should Take Me Asleep. I Would Not Have Him Merely Seize Me, And Only Declare Me To Be Dead, But Win Me, And Overcome Me. When I Must Shipwreck, I Would Do It In A Sea, Where Mine Impotency Might Have Some Excuse; Not In A Sullen Weedy Lake, Where I Could Not Have So Much As Exercise For My Swimming.
Love Built On Beauty, Soon As Beauty, Dies.
Take Me To You, Imprison Me, For I, Except You Enthrall Me, Never Shall Be Free, Nor Ever Chaste, Except You Ravish Me.
And New Philosophy Calls All In Doubt, The Element Of Fire Is Quite Put Out; The Sun Is Lost, And The Earth, And No Mans Wit Can Well Direct Him Where To Look For It.
Let Us Love Nobly, And Live, And Add Again Years And Years Unto Years, Till We Attain To Write Threescore: This Is The Second Of Our Reign.
Perchance, He For Whom This Bell Tolls May Be So Ill, As That He Knows Not It Tolls For Him...
More Than Kisses Letters Mingle Souls.

WEAK MIND, WEAK SOCIETY

To the people who say "you should ask your toddler if you have permission to take photos of them " and "baa baa Black sheep" is wrong because a colour is used which may offend, and to the books that have been removed from a kids library because not all girls have to be princess's then you all need to gather, and apologies to all the people who have to treat your opinions seriously because if you think that way, your thought process needs attention. Some people are  best to follow the crowd because their opinions will only lead to a weak minded society.

DAUGHTER DRAMAS

My daughter is a about to be a teenager and from a child who would listen and try to make her dad happy, she is now challenging everything I say. It doesn't matter how trivial the matter she seems to just want to prove she is old enough to make decisions even if what I've told her to do is something she wants to do. When she sees me getting frustrated because of time restraints she enjoys trying my patience. Every strategy I've tried doesn't work but when I get angry and raise my voice she gets in line. This sucks because I want to be rational but taking the caveman approach gets a better result. Any ideas to the people out there?

SORRY I DONT SERVE YOUR KIND!!!


It would be great if businesses banded together and completely rejected the customers who were rude to them by saying "We don't serve your kind" and if those rude people didn't understand we could give them a full description of why they qualify not to be treated like the respectable people of this world.
