I would’ve given my life to have been a part of this event. I think I saw Jesus waking around on this video somewhere hehe I wouldn’t even know what to do with myself if I were there. Had I been there, when Patti Labelle took the mic, I would’ve literally fallen out; right before my spirit went to heaven. I think I would’ve died; and an amazingly happy death at that. Love this. 

“For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. They are plans for good and not evil, plans for a future and a hope.” 

Jeremiah 29:11 

“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind. Then you will be able to discern what is the will of God, which is good, pleasing and perfect.” 

Romans 12:2 

What is meant to be for me is awaiting me. I want the will of God because it is good, pleasing and perfect. I have faith that everything I seek shall find me in due time. I truly believe this in my heart of hearts. Just because things don’t work out the way you wish, it doesn’t mean you close yourself off and quit trying. One day things will work out. It will all have been for the best! 

My name is Gemini
I’m always high
Never on drugs, but on life itself
I am two people in one
Those are the cards I’ve been dealt
I don’t believe in astrology, but it’s eerily accurate
According to it, I’m a nut basket
If I’m being a fool, I am pretending
The mind games of an intellect are never ending
I am water, I am fire
I am contempt, I am desire
I am hot and cold, new and old
I’m crazy, so I’m told
I am attention and neglect
I am perfection and defect
I am solitude in a crowd
I am a crowd when no one’s around
I am pure entertainment
In terms of goals, I am an attainment
Always represented by the twin sign
Castor and Pollux sharing the divine
I’m not sure how it was started but the legend goes
Two people in one; both friend and foe
two mortals granted shared godhood after death
I will still remain alive after my last breath
I am darkness and light and waterfall
I am sweet and bitter and methanol
Consumption of me can get you very sick
But my toxicity evaporates very quick
I am a breath of fresh air and clean water
I am a woman and a mother and a good daughter
I don’t like boring people and routine procedures
I’m into laughter and people with crazy features
I love and hate silence all at once
I enjoy playing pranks and pulling crazy stunts
I’m the funniest person, and a great lover
However suffer inside like no other
I don’t forgive, I’m vengeful, I don’t recover
I’m to the wind and carefree and I don’t stress
But sometimes I kill myself with worry, I’m a hot mess
I think too much and at times not at all
I pick myself up every time I fall
If I cried and lost, I don’t recall
I have lived and loved, and have stood tall
Sometimes I think I haven’t lived at all
I am polar opposites all in one
I always feel like I have won
Everything I say has a pun
I am in chaos within me all the time
I feel like my life is an uphill climb
But in the same breath I feel blessed
I live my life to the fullest with so much zest

Longing is the beat of my heart
Unhappiness is the road from where I depart
Truth lingers underneath the ruble of lies
Everyday a part of me dies

Desire is the beat of my heart
While things I cannot change tare me apart
Inside a conflict arises so deep
The mountains I climb are ever so steep
This road I walk alone
In pursuit of happiness; of things to call my own

Challenge is the beat of my heart
I can see the victory from afar
Pounding in my chest for excitement of what’s to come
Leaving behind things that have left me undone

Victory is the beat of my heart
My life is the creators best work of art
Arriving at the destination of my hearts desires
All my life I have walked on fire
I arrive at the conclusion; happiness is a journey, not a destination
I could’ve avoided the confusion; it’s all in the outlook, the optics and visualization.

My name is Truth
I am bold, untamed and in your face
The incarnation of a tainted youth
With piercing gaze your heart I lace
I may hurt but I don’t deceive
I might make you angry or make you grieve
I am purposeful in what I do
Even so, I exist for your good

My name is Vengeance
I am the desire to get you back
I return you to your insignificance
I’m incomplete if I don’t attack
I thrive on stooping down to your level
It feels great to cause you pain and make you shrivel
That you may feel what I have felt
These are the cards that you’ve been dealt
I have no regrets in my actions and aims
With me you will learn never to play games

My name is Humility
I am the capacity to put myself in your shoes and apologize when I’m wrong
I am a place where you can belong
I am understanding in the midst of confusion
I am a heartfelt profusion
There is no exclusion or ill intent
I can put my head down and still be content

My name is Irreverence
I am the lack of respect for your bullshit
I am the perseverance to resist your interference
Above all, I am legit
I don’t give a shit
I don’t adhere to societal rules and expectations
I don’t mind confrontations
I long for understanding
I am the master of misunderstanding
I do all the commanding
I am discontent if I am under someone’s thumb
For the most part, I am numb

My name is Spiritual
I’m no holy roller and I don’t think myself godly
However, the creator, I always hope to embody
In the midst of my imperfections, I try
God is a force strong within me, I cannot deny
I pray and I worship and I give Him the glory
Whether things are good or bad, He’s a part of the story
I look to Him for guidance and comfort
I speak to Him every night before I slumber
He’s the answer to all my questions
I know He loves me in all my imperfections

My name is Hope
I am the looking forward of good things to come
I keep my head held high when things come undone
I press forward when I don’t have strength
I keep sadness and disappointments at arms length
I keep my focus and make positive changes
I look forward to good exchanges
I keep people who are uplifting and don’t put my head down
With the assurance that things will one day turn around

My name is Intelligence
I know what is right and wrong
Never faltering to ambivalence
I’m calculating and pensive
I am very comprehensive
I know when to be offensive and defensive
My vocabulary is extensive
My brain never shuts off
If you try to outsmart me, I scoff
Extremely underestimated
Very motivated
I March to the beat of my own drum
Never under anyone’s thumb
I go for what I want
Sometimes I do it with a front
I am very wise
Sometimes I use a guise
I don’t tend to take advice
I am knowledgeable above the rest
In terms of processes, I am the best
I think ahead and I plan
I dare you to outsmart me; I don’t think you can
