How I Wish I Could Bloom Like That!

Dec 112009

Come to think of it, how a flower blooms ever so freely.

It did not plan it, yet it can't help but bloom!

And soon the world is enthralled

by its fragrance and beauty!

How I wish I could bloom like that.

Bloom naturally,

as God has planned me to.

Without me stressing over it,

without me worrying

if my life

would ever really amount to anything.

As I meditate upon the mystery of a flower,

let this be my guide,

that the work is already complete

even before I have ever begun.

The work was already there,

contained in that little seed.

It only has to be ALLOWED

to grow,

to receive sunshine and rain,

and to BLOOM

to its fullest potential.

Agnes { Dear Joyce, Hi! I have been an avid reader of your blog about a year an a half ago when I too have been experiencing heartbreak and burden in my life. Your words have really been a pat on my shoulder and a hug rolled in one. I am now in a year long relationship and life has been treating me well. It is not a perfect relationship, we do have our shares of ups and downs but we come out of each as a better individual and we grow and learn together through those past mistakes. I just... } – Feb 05, 3:53 PM

He doesn't care whether we be in public places like malls, offices etc he just feels he needs to, in his own terms, "vent out his spleen". He had called me many things and often times says that i am stupid. He said i needed to reform, and that the only way was "his way". for the past year i have been doing all he asks of me, i am not allowed to talk to my friends, neither am... } – Jan 24, 9:16 AM
