I don't mind if you've got something nice to say about me
And I enjoy an accolade like the rest
You could take my picture and hang it in a gallery
Of all who's who and so-n-so's that used to be the best
At such'n'such ... it wouldn't matter much
I won't lie, it feels alright to see your name in lights
We all need an 'Atta boy' or 'Atta girl'
But in the end I'd like to hang my hat on more besides
The temporary trappings of this world
I want to leave a legacy
How will they remember me?
Did I choose to love? Did I point to You enough
To make a mark on things?
I want to leave an offering
A child of mercy and grace who
blessed your name unapologetically
And leave that kind of legacy
I don't have to look too far or too long awhile
To make a lengthly list of all that I enjoy
It's an accumulating trinket and a treasure pile
Where moth and rust, thieves and such will soon enough destroy
Not well traveled, not well read, not well-to-do or well bred
Just want to hear instead, "Well Done" good and faithful one...
God and the Bible is relevant in today's time. Jesus spoke in a relevant way in His time. Relevant to the people in His time - agriculture to depict His points. It is alive and living and welcoming to the ppl. Take the gist and principles of the Word, not just wholesale.
undated. was written during the time my parents had a big trouble in their marriage. well, still is. but i chose not to think about it. i guess this still did not waver my belief in marriage even though unhappy things happened in my family before.
wat is love? wat is marriage? wat is call happily ever after? is there even such a thing? or there was was such a thing but just did not exist in my own world. Why am i here musing over such things? where is my The One? i duno where he is going to appear, and im not even sure if i can handle it. but of cos, i still believe there is an ideal marriage. it has to do with two's managing. not a magic tale, but two's managing. giving and taking. giving each other preference. im tired.
undated. but was written on Elizabeth's car while on the way to Beatrice's wedding. we were terribly late i remembered and that was how i started writing on my handphone..haha.. maybe a way to vent my frustration... i think is just a bunch of nonsense...watever i was writing...
