I was Knitting

One day when I was knitting I heard the wind howl ;
It howled so ,that I nearly jumped out of my skin;
The wind howled and there was a kind of whisper;
Asking if I had fallen asleep.

That was not all it did , no ,the wind came into my home;
And took me away ;
It brought me to this enchanted forest and all I did see was....
The echoing sounds that it made;
It was sad, and lonely;
The wind spoke to me and said in a sad voice , "be my friend please';
It was a plea , a plea that I could not forget;
In my minds eye , I could see that the two of us would become friends;
I took the wind by its wisps and led it away ............... away to a special place of soundless sleep .

Books, Books Galore and everywhere

I began reading at a very young age . I love to read and I have been reading ever since . The best place in the whole wide world is of course to me is the bookstore . Well I even had this dream of opening a bookstore , where I can read and my mother can't find me at all !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lost to the world and into my own little world . I don't think I need food ..judging by my size , I could get away without eating for a few months ( to which I would probably die and frizzle away ).
However it is a good dream .. how nice . It's a thought . I never seem to feel bored when it comes to reading . I am in my own world . Nice , quiet and just plain silent. Today I went to the bookstore to get a present . I was so jealous of all the books they had there , if I had a magic wand , with a swipe , I would get all of those books to my house !!!!

I could dive into an ocean of books , or how about if I just slept with all of those books all over me ? No , that would be a big silly no , no .

In the mean time , I will just have to finish up what I am reading and get a new book to start with ...

Stand Up to say No or forever hold your Peace ?

I don't know how to go about it ( standing up for my rights ) till I met a bunch of friends who did . With that being said , I use to feel so helpless when it comes to standing up for what I BELIVE is right or wrong .

My dad use to tell me , that when I stand up for my rights , I must remember that I am standing for it alone and never expect anyone else to do it together with me . Too much is at stake . Okay , fine .

I stood up for my rights because I wanted to make a difference and it was my decision alone and no one asked me to.

To some , I may seem troublesome but think again , we lead and others follow ? I am not asking for everyone to go to war but I guess a little makes a huge difference .
And if we stood up for what we believe in ... it makes a whole lot of difference .

Now, play nice and with all of the angry faces , we can't live without each other . We need each other to make the world a better place to live it .

Try it and see how it goes.

My Friend Jenny

How's this. My friend Jenny is studying away in London and I can her her voice in my head right now . Boy is she loud !!!!!! I have been friends with her for a long time , hell I even taught her in school .

When I finally thought I got rid of her , she comes to school one day asking for a job !!!!! Okay , we became firm friends , she would just storm into my class and start talking . How do I ever make her stop ? I can't do anything . Never ask her why hehehhe !!! ( Jen you know how I love to tease you !) Such a good girl . She loves to eat and cook but now being so far away from home , I heard our friend is dieting ....

May ---- that's what I usually call her . Don't ask me to call her Jenny , it's a mouthful. A good teacher and a funny one at that too. She loves her students but one thing I can't stand is the pampering that she gives them .....

But May will always be May . She can't be JUne or JUly ........................

sO What's instore ?

Hmmm ........ good question. To begin with I will definately plan to wake up slowly . Then laze around for awhile and set to do the things that I want to do . This is usually my plan however this time I have decided to come up with plan B .

I think I rather not plan just yet . I will have to see how it goes . There are a million things I could do with 2 weeks . I am looking forward to a wedding which is of course for the million time it's not mine !!!!! But .. all the same it's a wedding that I will be attending .

Okay enough about weddings . The plan .... the best thing is never plan a plan . Today being a Saturday , as usual it's church . Then back home . Okay that is not a plan . Better still wait for other days to see if I could do some window shopping .

A pig I slept like ..........

A pig I slept like ;when all I could think of was the color pink;
A pig I slept like; when everything was going my way;


A pig I slept like; for I snored through the night;
A pig I slept like; for there was no tomorrow;


A pig I slept like ;for all in my head was that funny kinda hum;
A pig I slept like;when I sang that song;


A pig I slept like; and not much I could do;
A pig I slept like ; when the alarm of my clock went and it was time to wake up !!

I speak and I have spoken

I was not nervous for I was prepared and I came prepared , It was like a prayer which I said to myself that I desire to do this right , what ever it took to get it right.

Eyes were watching me and my every move . I can't screw this up as I had people depending on me , the children ... It was always the children that mattered the most , I could not let them down . I need to show them what I was made of .

It was something that I normally would not do and I would back out straight away without batting an eyelid. Funny , I could have said NO but I did not .

I embraced what was said and I knew what I must do . No more running away this time I would meet it head on . I will not falter nor sway in what I am about to do .

I asked to be calm and relaxed for the day , as I opened my mouth to speak I knew that , I have overcome my shyness. No turning back now . It's with great gladness , joyfulness and thankfulness that not only was it a perfect day, it was also a day of how I found myself.
