Posted by Philothea` @ Thursday, November 18, 2004 | i wanna swim, sWim, sWIm, sWIM, SWIM!
can't remember when's da last time i really had a gd swim. well, does it matter? I don't know. I'm just kinda distraught at the fact that i've to wake up early tmr, travel for at least 1 1/2hrs to WORK. It ain't dat bad, especially when the peeps at my workplace are so thoughtful, kind and patient. I mean, knowing me, I made lotsa silly mistakes but they won't even get mad at me. Instead, they would channel their energy towards working out a solution almost immediately. Plus, it's nice having the NYGS peeps ard. If not, i wld haf been bored to bits wif all dat rountine assignments. Too bad their working experience attachment ends diz friday. So, why am i complainting? okies, time to shudup and catch sum slp.
Anyway, just thinkin' bout wad i've been thru da past few weeks or so. There's so much i wish i cld say...all my regrets, all my acclaims, the joy and the pain...
And i thank you Lord, for the trials that come my way
in the way i can grow each day as i let you lead
but it goes against the way i am to put my human nature down
and let the spirit take control of all i do
coz when those trials come,
my human nature shouts the things to do
and God's soft prompting can be easily ignored!
I've made you too small in my eyes
Oh Lord, forgive me
And I've believed in a lie that you were unable to help me
but now oh Lord I see my wrong,
heal my heart and show yaself strong
in my eyes and with my heart
Oh Lord, be magnified.

Posted by Philothea` @ Monday, November 15, 2004 | When i'm alone the world is such a different place
Sometimes it's hard to keep the smile upon my face
It seems like I try so hard and still I let you down
It's taken so long but now theres one thing that I've found
Just when I think that I've got it figured out
You open my eyes and let me see that there's no doubt
But you've got it all within the power of your hand
It seems like the more I know the less I understand
When everyting starts crashing down
When all I know falls to the ground
When darkness comes and I can't see
You're always there to rescue me
When all my strength has turned to fear
When I wonder if you're near
When I don't know how to break free
You're always there to rescue me
I wonder if I'll make it through this darkest night
I need to know your strength in me gonna win this fight
I'm reaching out won't you take my hand show me to the light
I know you're by my side
