Indeed, ignorance is bliss. Peace of mind,  Still, when the war comes, There is no excuse. My friend says to me today: The more we seek, the more we know the more we know, the more you have to yet know. Knowledge is power but power can destroy Therefore, in other words, without seeking, there is no knowledge; without knowledge there is no power, without power, there are less chances of being destroyed without power, there is every tendency to be vulnerable. Ignorance is living each day as it comes. Not trying to connect the wonder dots, Not going after a white rabbit you know not where it may end; Trying hard not to fail, Staying in  the known. Wanting answers handed to them, these eaters, They stay as breast suckers, never eating meat. Never knowing the worth attaining this treasure....

1. I am on a battlefield A fight that i cannot win on my own. The bond of brotherhood drives me on Knowing that we will always join ranks And keep the other afloat. My greatest arsenal. Chorus: I've got this love That I cannot deny Its colours are of you and you and you A bright light that covers who we are. 2. Our mission is to pierce the still dark To move away from light revealed toward home. Within the belly of the deep dark lies the price. There, our inheritance awaits. My home. Chorus: I've got this love That I cannot deny Its colours are of you and you and you A bright light that covers who we are.

I once was worried. Really worried and a tad angry. Now I see the wisdom in his silence. I see what he was trying to make me see. The folly of the natural... The fickleness of man... The mirage of emotions.  A house not built with human hands A house built on divine wisdom. Gathering all resources, assuring the quality. Only the things that will survive the Father's fire  Are worth coupling together.  The best, we will give to the Lord. No compromise.  Beyond logic, There you are. Those things that have taken my present focus You have shown is just the smokescreen.  The problem lies way beneath the surface. .. Beyond logic Beyond what my human mind can dig up.  But it's there. Yet in my foolishness, I apply logic  I look at the issue before me And no matter how hard I try It seems its never ending. ... I choose you Over logic, I choose to trust and obey I will wait on you Until you come. ...

Becoming Never is by default It takes intricate learnings Lots of ice breaking And pushing in the face of hurdles Even more,  swimming against the tide. To be a leader,  first be the servant of all.... To be a wife, first find the beauty of being a female. To be a husband, first be a male. To be a father,  first be the Son. To be a teacher,  Submit to being the learner. Like a wave ... The deeper,  the higher... The dirtier the gold, the greater the refining process...and the purer the outcome. It all works together. Nothing lost. Becoming... An emerging path, Terra Incognita, The first to step in it will christen it. And create a culture therein. One step at a time. I want this. Yes. But I know it's not what I do. It is who I am that counts for what I do will flow from who I am. He deserves the best of the flock. It's not about me... I must remember always that it is about him... Giving him pleasure.. Learn to be as he is Le...

It is okay to take the back seat And allow the other draw the lines. I'll pretend like I know nothing But make do with all that you open up Yet a part of me wishes That you would drop your high and mighty ego And see what I see.... But how can you see beyond your pain? I dont know what you want to build with offences? I have seen the failed friendship. Even brotherhood has failed. What then is left? Though love is true, I refuse to give vinegar for your cross Though my heart breaks for you I know this path is a must If the tomorrow I've seen is true. I trust it to see you through this phase. I trust it to bring you home. I believe in you. If you are the one,  as everything has pointed so far, I trust that all you have gone through will carry you through this kairos. Become!

Its dark in here but the switches have no knobs when there were no words, counsel flowed in streams. Now the words are here and the counsellors have gone to sleep. Awake Sir. Rise up and hear me. Knock knock!! Pardon my time wasting... I have it now. How long do I have to wait? How do I submit without running through my supervisor? How will the internal supervisor ever defend my choices before the panel? It is the same. One step at a time. I guess at the point of submission, the release to speak will come And the ears to hear too. In the mean time, let me keep sharpening these hidden words.

Words, where are you?  Hear me my heart, Be still and trust that he is God. That he has a plan for the very best. Again, I have to watch,  bleed silently and let go. Peradventure, you will be the Neo who'd return. To liberate my doubts. Or just one of the Smiths Who always seem to have a backup plan.  Bleed. How much more? In teary silence Unspoken responses I watch as time folds Weighted words long awaited Finds no medium of conveyance. I'm pregnant with words. But no one to take the birth. Time has played a fast one.  So I sit and bleed away... Else, walk on and never stop.
