desert

in a tent
naked
joy
falls
down
like
stars
on
me

in life
anxious
stop
joy
falls
down
like
stars
on
me

"I called you by name"
on my hand, written: "the Lord's"

in my heart
naked
joy
falls
down
like
stars
on
me

i don't look back
I am the Lord's

oh yes

Oh yes

It is today. And the problems have gone off to wakiki, paradise. My life is instantaneously okay.

Instantaneously I am proud of how far I've come. And for this moment I can say that I am less than a loser.

I better anti-up again and put on my game face.

Cuz shit aint gonna be easy

the wall

you see the wall
i hit it every day
i can show you the x-rays

my strength is tested, daily
and i know how others see me, I see right back

I have told you nothing of what i am, just of what i believe.

Mine is a life where no expectations have been met. You see my years and you make projections. check what you thought of me three years ago. and check it again next year

Because mine is a life that you cannot predict,... it will be great and it will be painful

obese

is it okay to be content to be obese??

I think that is a phenomenal question

when should we improve ourselves? how? and when should we be accepting of oursevles.

Does contentment lead us to live less-fulfilling lives?

I don't have the answer to this question.

The answer to the obesity question should have nothing to do with how many people in this world are obese, but more on statistics of what proportion of obese people successfully lose weight and how that affects the quality of their life.

My guess is that there is no good reason to be content with one's weight. There is no good reason to be content with one's life. There is no good reason to not continually strive for something better.
