{January 25, 2013}   Courage Poem By Teen Writer

Teen expressing pain through poetry. Every word in this poem is true. I’ve had a really tough year. With my family problems and mine. I feel like I’ve lost the bubbly, happy girl I once was and I hate that. I have junior Rheumatoid Arthritis at just 14 years old. It took the doctors 2 years to find out what it was. And when they did I had to have surgery But that didn’t stop the pain and it got worst and at one point I had to go to the ICU unit. But god saved my life that day I stopped breathing and for that I am so thankful.

My Pain

My pain feels like bones breaking,
Day after day.
I feel so stressed and tired,
that my hair may turn gray.
I keep on crying,
like an old tissue tatty and wear.
What if I don’t get better,
That is my biggest fear.
I feel so dizzy, like I might fall down,
but no matter what my family has been around.
However lately I feel like I might give up,
as I have so many pills that they could fill up a cup.
This year hasn’t been so great for me,
and not for a lot of my family.
My grandma is forgetting simple things,
like who she is and what she brings.
My uncle and best friend have cancer,
I wish somehow that they will both find the answer.
These horrible things are making me mad,
I love them so much it makes me sad.
Believe me I’m not trying to make it all about me,
I just don’t know the last time my pain was a three.
All I’ve been getting is nines and nines,
there’s no way this pain is in my mind.
Without god I would not be here,
he saved my life this year.
The pain is only a small price to pay,
as I wish to walk with my lord someday.

WOW !  So much drama and Deeply Disturbing , but I can put it down !

Book  Description :

When literature student Anastasia Steele goes to interview young entrepreneur Christian Grey, she encounters a man who is beautiful, brilliant, and intimidating. The unworldly, innocent Ana is startled to realize she wants this man and, despite his enigmatic reserve, finds she is desperate to get close to him. Unable to resist Ana’s quiet beauty, wit, and independent spirit, Grey admits he wants her, too—but on his own terms.
 
Shocked yet thrilled by Grey’s singular erotic tastes, Ana hesitates. For all the trappings of success—his multinational businesses, his vast wealth, his loving family—Grey is a man tormented by demons and consumed by the need to control. When the couple embarks on a daring, passionately physical affair, Ana discovers Christian Grey’s secrets and explores her own dark desires.

Erotic, amusing, and deeply moving, the Fifty Shades Trilogy is a tale that will obsess you, possess you, and stay with you forever.

{January 25, 2012}   Quote Pick For The WEEK ( 1 ) !

How many times we have seen people looking for happiness in vacations, in making more money, in material things only to be disappointed. Happiness truly does come from within. No one or no thing can give it to you. It is an attitude that you decided upon. You and only you can make , YOU HAPPY .

{December 17, 2011}   Book Pick For The WEEK ( 5 ) !

Losing a job is terrifying and reading about it probably doesn’t sound like much fun either. However,Lancaster seems to be able to turn anything into a hysterical, fun-filled book !

 

 

 

Book Description :

Jen Lancaster was living the sweet life-until real life kicked her to the curb.

She had the perfect man, the perfect job-hell, she had the perfect life-and there was no reason to think it wouldn’t last. Or maybe there was, but Jen Lancaster was too busy being manicured, pedicured, highlighted, and generally adored to notice.

This is the smart-mouthed, soul-searching story of a woman trying to figure out what happens next when she’s gone from six figures to unemployment checks and she stops to reconsider some of the less-than-rosy attitudes and values she thought she’d never have to answer for when times were good.

Filled with caustic wit and unusual insight, it’s a rollicking read as speedy and unpredictable as the trajectory of a burst balloon.
