Til’ We Meet Again by Melanie R.

Til’ We Meet Again by Melanie R.

Our hearts come together.
somber reflections,
As we mourn lives lost-
and what used to be,
a remembrance replaying on our heartstrings.

The pain of grief cuts so deep,
And bleeds each tear we cry…
So hard to be here in this moment to have to say goodbye.

For we know even in the depths of this sorrow,
Jesus holds them close,
holds hope for tomorrow.
For death is not the final end-
Not goodbye, til we meet again.

Lord promises restoration,
redemption, all things new.
A life of peace.
Hopeful mercy new.

And death no longer can take away
in the midst of grief;
sorrowful pain.
May we find strength to rise again;
to celebrate their lives again!

Holding onto hope's embrace,
And trust in God's unfailing
grace.

(In honor of Marge and Tom -
We love you!
Til we meet again!)

If You Could Get Rid of 1 Invention, What Would It Be and Why? #BipolarDisorder #DistractMe

The only thing that I would eradicate would be the hysteria and hypocrisy that is pushed into our faces by the media platforms that have become the most powerful and influential, if not somewhat dangerous, aspects of our lives. We have all (not all but the majority of us), signed up to these platforms, either by buying a Television so news channels can put the fear of God into us by telling us that there’s World War III around the corner (in Europe it’s currently the Russian invasion of the Ukraine), and then saying the most powerful country in the world, the United States of America 🇺🇸, now has a complete lunatic at its helm, or so the press in the UK say. I personally think that Donald Trump is a man in his 70s (or whatever age he is), that cares implicitly about his own Country and is discombobulated about the direction it was headed in. The media zoom in on each and every word he says and manipulates these to fit their narrative to sell newspapers or magazines and make people believe that he is a joker 🤡 or an incompetent person to run the most powerful country in the world. He was banned from Twitter and Instagram (or whatever social platforms) in his last term in charge for speaking his mind and his ban was a joke in essence because this person still had the launch codes to nuclear weapons 😂🤦🏽‍♂️.

I’m going to go out on a limb here and say what I think is the direction the world is going. You have seen these multi billionaires who own these big corporations that were jostling for position as trying to be the first person to make it into Space and establish their position as the first person to open up space travel to the general public and make it possible for the world. They were banding about figures of £250k (I think) for the once in a lifetime opportunity to visit space. But the trip wouldn’t be that fantastic would it? You wouldn’t be able to get out of the spaceship and walk around, nor could you check in on Facebook or whatever to show your mates you were orbiting the planet?!? 🤦🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️

I’ve said this before in my blogs, and there’s no obligation for these people to do it, but if they all agreed to put 1 or 2%, max. 5%, of their wealth into the project of eradicating poverty and World hunger, they would collectively become the people who stopped the whole problem of poverty and hunger in the modern world?! Surely this would be a better moniker to be remembered by than the person who had got to space for twenty minutes and just had a glimpse of the world he, or she, could change forever. I believe that the increasing progressive agenda and development of AI is directing us towards an AI controlled society. We have the ‘Metaverse’, which is the only one that I know as I’m a technophobe, where we can create our own avatar to represent us in the computer generated world. I think that the moguls of the social media platforms will persuade us to create our own avatars and create a virtual universe, where they will then escape on their spaceships to the orbit of the Earth and then destroy the entire population of humanity via a nuclear explosion or cause a mass exodus of the human race left on earth to then return once the dust has settled and continue to build their meta universe as the worlds consciousness. Becoming what is as close as possible to becoming a God!

So in closing, I would dispose of Social Media for the benefit of humanity! Before anyone says that my blogging or posting on the Mighty is social media, I personally don’t think that it is, as it’s simply a log of my own perceptions and opinions about things, that are anonymous until someone chooses to read them. Not protected from a page into the path of everyone who you are associated with.

Finally, I hope I’m wrong but if I’m right then we won’t ever know anything about it because it would just happen in an instant. But remember, “You have been warned”.

:::REMINDER:::

Reminder to everyone that “your best” doesn’t mean pushing yourself to your breaking point. “Your best” means the best you can do while being the best you. Get enough sleep, give yourself breaks, listen to your limits. “Your best” is better when you’re happy and healthy.~ billie jean #MightyTogether #MightyMoment #MentalHealth #CheckInWithMe

Monitored by Melanie R.

Echoed chambers of my heart;
Centered rhythm deepest part.
Search me Lord, and see I’m true-
Slated clean,
each beat for you.

Five ways count each beats refrain, monitored life both joy and pain.
Set each P,Q,R,S,T…
my heart declares my love for thee.

And if one day my chambers still,
my heart set free-
fulfilled Your Will!

Psalm 26:2
Test me Lord, and try me,
examine my heart and mind.

1 Chronicles 28:9
Acknowledge The Lord of your father, and serve him with wholehearted devotion, and a willing mind. For the Lord searches every heart, and understands every desire, and every thought.

💪🏻‘Courage’ is not ‘Fearless’💪🏻

Having courage is not the same as being fearless. When you complete a task despite being absolutely terrified, that is true courage! 💪🏻

Chronic Pain by Melanie R. #ChronicIllness #ChronicPain #RheumatoidArthritis #MitochondrialDisease #BackPain #MightyPoets #MightyMoment #InsideTheMighty

Chronic Pain by Melanie R.

Through battles of despondency,
Rare chronic illness muckings.
Hear echoes of their laughing,
rubbing hands of their stalkings.

Burdens of my symptoms;
it’s tortuous attacks.
They’re one behind the other;
My light seen,
Followed.
Tracked.

A ship in fog kept idled.
My engine just won’t start.
Reaching for my Bible-
as my body falls apart.

Can spirit separate from body?,
to escape the suffering?
Crude hell of inflammation,
raging fire from within.

A rumbling embodiment;
endless lava burning–
proclastic hyperglow
emitted from my yearning.

Feel branded…
Tormented.
Hot pokers of this thorn,
attacking my body…
I lay here and I mourn.

Felt unclothed out in winter,
I shivered on my own.
I needed Him beside me;
to clothe me-
bring me home!

A martyr full of valor,
burned alive for faith,
a yesteryear believer,
the blood runs through my veins.

Coursing and crying
for justice in pain,
Lamenting in writhing…
My tongue calls his name!

He heard me,
procured me,
Bottled my tears.
Filled me of healing,
replaced all my fears.

Cut open,
I’m slaying.
Filleting of flesh.
I share in His suffering,
soul-fired, and blessed!

In cells of his captors
Paul sang of His songs,
The Word was his strength-
I sing all day long!

Have rhythm,
Give glory!
Mountains have moved!
My symphony of suffering,
sweet melody of truth!
