There are vast possibilities on the horizon; It’s up to us to manifest those possibilities into realities!
The Woman and Her Mansions ~CordieB.
She lived in a house of…
Many Mansions
Countless Doors
Infinite Windows and
Endless Floors
~~~
Yet she confined herself to…
One small house
One small room
Her comfort zone…
Filled with unfulfilling gloom
~~~
Many windows of…
Opportunity came her way
Opened doors –
Yet here she stayed…
Afraid to leave
Her cramped comfort zone
Yet inside, she’d often
bitch moan and groan
~~~
Over time she…
Over-decorated her little room
With too much brick-a-brat
Familiar clutter…
A little of this, A lot of that
Obstructing her windows
Covering her floors…
Obscuring her vision
Blocking her doors…
Taking her breath!!
Out of control!!
Killing her softly…
Draining her soul…
~~~
Until one day she was brave enough to…
Release the shutters!
Open the doors!
Roll out the carpet!
Explore other floors!
Bask in the sunshine!
Laugh in the rain!
Experience the world
Through both joy and pain!
~~~
She began exploring her many mansions and…
Seek new adventures!
Become experimental!
Redecorating her once limited mind…
With knowledge and boundless potential!

In my Father’s house are many mansions ~ The Bible, John 14:2

It’s been well over a year since I wrote this. . . and still the epic continues…
Love, Fear and Enlightenment ~CordieB.
She gazed upon his deep brown eyes
Glaized with love and fear; confused yet wise
she knew he loved her desperately . . . .
he could not risk her flying free
She knew she loved him through all fate
with him she’d found her mirrored mate
but with his love came blind control
Though undeliberate, such control shackled her soul
She knew her love was full and true
but there were other things she also knew . . .
she knew she could not be contained
into the life for which he’d planned
She knew he had insecurities
that would never allow her to simply be
he’d always possess the fear of flight
of her souring endlessly into the night
But since her love was true and tried
she eased his fears; stayed by his side
dealt with his subtle controls of will
convinced his way was better still
In time she lost desire to feel . . .
the warmth of the glowing sun
the coolness of the rain upon
her gentle being which she’d dreamed of
she’d traded peace of mind for love . . .
but still the longing in her eyes
revealed a tale of silent cries
this only hightend his insecurites
gave way to anger; raged immaturities
he’d often, confused, demand her to leave
but she’d hold to her sweet reprieve . . .
then one blessed day so crystal clear
the god’s of earth’s great atmosphere
gave strength to follow the raged command
thus she left the home of her beloved man
which she had humorously dubbed the promise land
though she knew his words were those of fear
the god’s gave her insight true and clear
that though her love was tried and true
living that life again; she she could not do
she needed the ability to shed her tears
to speak or write her words without the fears
of disillusioned, often drunken anger
for which she feared might trigger danger
But still her love so pure remained
Yet her peace of mind was hence regained
she knew she really loved this man
but feared rejection and anger once again . . .
She bathed in sweet tranquilities
she felt she finally could breath
she missed his presense even so . . .
Yet there was a stranger she had to get to know
She needed to get to know herself
not live her life for someone else
she needed to live her own desires
find out what really sparked her fires
Again, her love was tried and true
but being alone was something she needed to do
she’d always ran from man to man
if one doesn’t work out; another one can
was often her motto for many years
so in fact she had never faced her inner fears
thus she found herself crying the same sad tears
She felt if she simply returned for love
the same problems would arise in time thereof
for although she loved him beyond compare
she knew she’d lost a part of self somewhere . . .
Ah yes! she loved him desperately
and felt there love was meant to be
but with raw emotions and fear intertwined
she risked loosing his love to find her mind
To be continued. . . .

Art - Everybody Needs Love ~CordieB.
Say you wake up in the morning…
feeling so empty inside
I bet i got just what you’ve been looking for baby,
you need someone like me by your side…
i know you’ve been hurt before
but don’t be afraid to try love once more…
…cause without love by your side,
you’re only half alive,
because everybody needs love… everybody needs love…
Now I really don’t know who wrote those lyrics, but, ain’t that all we all really need for true happiness; but we do so many things to avoid being hurt. Aren’t we all afraid to try love once more. But, when I think about it, life is really about love. The sooner we realize it, the sooner we might began to truly live.
Allow love to saturate your being today, people. Don’t be afraid. You really don’t know what tomorrow brings…and yesterday is dead and gone. Cast aside all anger, resentment, heartaches, and fears. Living a moment in love is well worth the risk of tomorrow or the pain of the past; and actually the most happiest way I can really imagine ever living. Live for the love you have today. Don’t let anyone or anything deny you of your right to love. Don’t let time, people, or circumstance steal your joy!!! Give and accept love to the fullest of your very being starting this moment and every moment hereafter!!!!
Don’t wake up another morning, feeling so empty inside; especially when you truly have a choice. Just do it!!! Live your passion!!!
Peace, Light and Love, CordieB

I can spread like wild fires
From one to another
I’m highly contagious
Among family, sisters and brothers
I spread oblivious, at times paralyzing dread
Among unwitting lovers
Many fall so easily for me
Instead of falling for love
Leaving their souls in disharmony
minds and bodies devoid of
natural defenses; protection thereof
If one soul is infected
I can spread to the mass
I have no preference or penchant
to any race, creed or class
I multiply and mutate
With a mere, whispered suggestion
I frequently blow up to pandemonium..
becoming wide-spread infection
I can began as a simple idea
Quickly manifesting into reality
a mere negative thought passed on
is how I’m always first conceived
Deceptive; I am never what I appear
I am the root of all evil,
I am the spirit of fear…
Written by CordieB.
————————
Fellow blogger, phaelosopher, so clearly reminds us in his recent artlce, “A Matter of Choice, The Power of Fear or Love on Swine Flu .. that…
Love lifts the spirits, and with the lifting of the spirit comes an increase in life force energy within our entire being. These are not simply flowery woo woo proclamations.
Placing ourselves in a loving attitude has a calming, harmonizing effect on our cell physiology. It also increases circulation and has a structuring effect on the water that flows within the body, and the organizing effect on the energy field that flows around, and extends beyond it. This produces and enhances a field around us that ultimately influences what happens to us — what we actually experience — from one moment to the next. More…

The Emerging - CordieB
She walks this earth inside her mind
Her fear of love has made her blind
She wears a smile with distant gleam
But all is well, or so it seems
She spat at love eternally
And swears this is the way to be
This is one thing she feels she can control
Yet there’s a hollow in her soul
for which she can’t quite fill the void
Thus, She walks though life quite paranoid
That there is something in her being
That’s lying dormant; unforeseen
An imagined evil just on the surface
For which she cleverly keeps in place
By a trillion thoughts of self reduction
Repetitive thoughts; causing obstruction
Of true desire for what can make her feel
worthy of love, of life, of zeal . . .
So long these thoughts have tricked her mind
She scantly remembers there being a time
When she knew how to live outside of self
When she felt deserving of being blessed
She thought she could live this way forever
But the universe willed her to discover
The backwards spelling of the dormant evil
The love she stubbornly won’t allow to spill
She fears the pain she may evoke
That take her breath; make her choke
That pains her more than anything else
Since her mind’s convinced her she can’t help herself
So she wears soft shoes that hurt her feet
As a constant reminder of past retreats
She has not learned the power of self forgiveness
For she’s convinced she deserves no blessing
So love resides in remission; deeply submerged
For years in dormant; yet soon to be emerged
Love is pushing its way from inside out
Though she’s quite successful at keeping Love out
Each time she feels Love peeking around
She changes directions to ensure she can’t be found
Yet, God has other plans for this child, disguised as woman
LOVE WILL crawl from the hidden place she’s tucked Love in…

Abuse by ~xchildofvasolinex on deviant ART
When I was a girl
I would sit and listen to my auntees
and other older woman talk
about having to marry men they did not love
and how they eventually "learned to love."
I thought that was about the saddest
thing that anyone could ever do;
to marry someone and have to "learn to love"
was, in my opinion, the most sadistic,
most saddest, existence I could imagine . . .
until I grew up and I married
a knight in shining armour . . .
who turned out to be
a nightmare in shining armour . . .
and I began to . . .
"Learn to Hate"

P.S. This is in the past. . . We divorced years ago. . .
For information on Domestic Violence, visit TallT’s Blog . She, painfully, yet bravely, tells her story and reaches out to anyone who may be living in this sad and dangerous situation. She is a trooper who also was able to bravely walk run away and awaken from a nightmare in shining armour.

Afro American Girl literally by ~madhatter-asylum on deviant ART
As I was going to see Saint I’s
I met a woman by big surprise!
Who shocked me when I realized
That she was not as saintly as she’d surmised
As I was going to see Saint I’s
I met a woman who’d cheated and lied
Who’d broken many promises in life . . .
and caused hearts to break; causing toil and strife
As I was going to see Saint I’s
I met a broken-hearted woman with blackened eyes
Who’d allowed destructive relationships to take its toll
On her body; her mind; damn near her soul!
As I was going to see Saint I’s
I met a woman with many nights of cries
Though many were brought upon herself . . .
she often blamed Saint Someone Else
As I was going to see Saint I’s
I soon become to realize
how Saint I’s choices help prophesize
her destiny and life’s Karmic reprise
As I was going to see Saint I’s
I begin to forgive past and future hurts and lies
I forgave Saint I’s for her saintly disguise
To Saints lack and fear, I gladly said my goodbyes
As I finally arrived to see Saint I’s
I met Saints Love , Forgiveness , Courage, Truth and Wise
Five beautiful spirits; in motion; yet spiritually still
These saints introduced me to Saint "Free Will "
As I was getting to better know Saint I’s
I became increasingly mesmerized by her changed demise
Forgiveness of self and others helped her to arrive and arise
Courage and Truth began to replace those fears and lies
Love began to clear up those bloodshot eyes . . .
In time Saint I’s lost her Saintly hood
Life started flowing like God intended it should
Her cup ran over with a cloudy, yet rainbowed sky
Thus, she dropped the Saint and became simply I
Love, Hatred, Courage, Fear, Truth and Lies . . . .
How many were going to see Saint I’s?

I am the tallest, darkest shadow to fall upon the hearts of men;
I have caused enormous calamity, failure and sin;
With me in a heart, humans seldom ever win.
Such a cold, dark, shallow shadow am I;
I bring on fears and tears, causing humans to sigh, asking why?
I’ve destroyed countless relationships, successes and faith;
I’m quite subtle, yet very strong is my wrath;
All minds and hearts will inevitably at times see me in their path.
All humans encounter me, some more than another;
You see, insecurity is my sister and worry is my brother;
My father is fear; suspicion, my mother.
I embrace souls at night like a new found lover.
If you are not carefull, I will suffocate you under my dark, thick cover.
Like a blanket of dread, I cover my prey;
To release yourself of my wrath, you must kneel down and pray;
Stay thankful and hopeful, live day by day.
I’ve had many second-guessing what’s wrong from right.
I cause anxiousness, apprehensiveness,
and can make hearts uptight;
But my shadow is very easily overcome by the family of light . . .
For the bright light of hope, faith, and love shine so bright
And they bring courage, security and trust to join in the fight;
Such illuminosity, clarity, and brilliance is their light,
It will cause my dark, deep shadow to fade and disappear straight into the night!

“Last week I probably slept an average of two hours a night,” Ledger told The New York Times (in November). “I couldn’t stop thinking. My body was exhausted, and my mind was still going.” He said he took two Ambien pills, which only worked for an hour.
The big drug addiction problem facing America, according to statistics, lies not in the crack houses and shooting galleries of the inner cities, but in the doctor’s offices to which millions of Americans go in search of relief for their emotional and psychological pain.
People use prescription drugs to relieve various emotional problems, such as anger, stress, anxiety, boredom or depression. Others take these drugs to boost their self-confidence. People may also use drugs to help them forget about or cope with traumatic life events or situations or to relieve the symptoms of severe psychiatric illness.
According to the Center’s for Disease Control, poisoning from prescription drugs has risen to become the second-largest cause of unintentional deaths in the United States, (behind only automobile accidents) .
Most people take medicines only for the reasons their doctors prescribe them. But an estimated 20 percent of people in the United States have used prescription drugs for nonmedical reasons. Some people take more than what is prescribed to get “high.” Others combine the drugs to get an even more euphoric effect. All of these usages lead to prescription drug abuse.
Potential Warning Signs
Answering yes to one or more of these questions could indicate there is a problem.
Drug abuse and all self-abuse is caused by intense fear and self-centeredness. The solution is usually much simpler than therapeutic methods. In most instances, the solution to fear and selfishness are faith and service to others. Living a life based on these two basic principles will relieve addiction and help one to achieve permanent sobriety, and a healthy, happy life.
