My BiRtHdAy MoTTo..

Mornin Sunshine!..

have for you today my Birthday Motto..
not to lead nor follow..
shii..

bout to do me like there is no tomorrow..

choose not to beg. steal nor borrow..

judge each by their action..
not fall in with commonality of race..
religious nor political chain reactions..

on this Birthday here of mine
i understand that i am too damn GROWN..
to bitch and moan about things I can not control..
even to cater to the fact that this day..
brings me one step closer to the Valley of Dry Bones..

GROWN enough to know better
than to feel so righteous to cast the first stone..
have no need to walk on water
to prove Who made me is GREAT
far as im concern that trick has already been done

in my heart and mind I know..

that was a different time
and I am a different Son..
gifted in ways of word play
to be set aside from any other one

shall expect the best
and fear not the worst
demons have their jobs to do
so at times my Earthly blessings will be my curse..

know life isn’t something that can be rehearsed..
it’s something I have to dig into..
learn my position and juice it for all its worth..

first love my:

Heavenly Father
Self
Wife
Kids
Family
Friends

truly in that order

know:

I cannot change the past
nor predict the future
the present is a gift..

now.. who don’t like to open gifts?

In closing
keep much love for:

Sunshine.
Moonlight.
Dry and Stormy Weather
Friends. Foes. Highs. Lows
for all our moods are chained together..

like it or not
know we tied at the hip
fitting perfectly for all that i Understand and Know…
to build a comprehensive framework of…..

…MY BIRTHDAY MOTTO…
