I refuse

This battle never ends, This game of love and pain

I know for what I fight, I know what I will gain

But getting there is all but simple

….broken hearts along the way

So many who have wished, they never knew my name

I do not wish them pain

But I will not tell a lie

I will not lead them on

I will not waste their time

& when I set them free

I know joy is theirs to find

For the right one, I am a blessing

Worth waiting all ones life

In the wrong hands a curse

Which causes so much strife

That is true for all…

For love you cannot settle

Love is not “ok”

Love is such desire

You won’t accept another way.

You say I’m mean, but I’m honest with you.

You want the lie, or you want the truth?

The lie is cruel

It is so wrong, yet many do.

The weak will lie

…but I refuse….

Call it a curse

Call it what you want…

…but I know….

For the truth,  I’m blessed

When I am saved from the liars

Who try to take my best

Without even thinking….

….of the rest

Que sera….sera

What will be…… will be.

Is it really so?

Is there a planned destination that you cannot avoid? Is the future set in stone and what is meant to be will be no matter what? I think that we create our destiny, we mold it as we go. Yes, but in a way, it is set in stone, because in the spirit world, there is no past, present or future…you can see it all. It all exists at once. What will happen has already happened. I think a better way to say it is this, “What will be, already is”.  But that does not mean that you do play a role in controlling  your own destiny. Things have a funny way of turning out and it is amazing when you look back at the winding path and realize that everything happened for a reason and that is why you are where you are today. Have you ever looked back and felt that everything you have been through has led up to this very point? That the struggles and hardships actually made you a better person? Gave you wisdom? Have you ever thought that you lost the love of your life, only to realize what a bigger better world you have now, without them? Only to find that you never knew love at all, until now….  Have you ever thought you knew something, only to discover more? We do as we please and we mold our future. We twist, we turn, we resist, we learn. Try as you might, but what will happen, has already been. Live your life at ease. Relax and do what feels right. Stick with your gut. Even if you make the wrong decision, through trial and error we learn, and we prepare ourselves for a better future. I would not be who I am today, if not for the trials I faced. If I never knew infatuation, I could never know love. If I never knew pain, I would not be able to stand up for myself. If I never had regret, I would not be so cautious.

Perhaps you have been here already, or perhaps you have yet to arrive at this point. In the midst of trial and tribulation, we ask ourselves why we must bear such adversity. When one looks back, he just might be amazed at how all that has happened, has been a mere stepping stone to the present point in which he stands, and if even one stone was missing, perhaps the path would have led somewhere else. Each stone makes you stronger and prepares you for what is to come. As you pass by each undesirable stone happily blowing away goodbye kisses to it, you know what you do not want. Experience helps you to find and keep the things that you do want. I have found that this is especially true in relationships and I have learned never to settle. because blessings often disguise themselves as misfortune. If you must move onto another stone, you will most likely find that it has only led to an even finer stone than the one before it. However, some people jump, just to jump. Just because they can never be happy with what they have.  Simply put, those people will never be happy with what they have. What I am trying to say, is this; Don’t push fate. Let things happen when they happen. Let things feel right. Let things fall into place. Sometimes you have to work hard because that is just life. You will know when you are moving toward something in your life that just feels right. Whenever I am going to make a big decision in my life. I wait for the right moment. I wait until things seem to be shifting in that direction. I wait to see if the circumstances seem to be falling into place. I wait until it feels right. I suppose you could say, I wait for my que. I make a move and see what happens, and que sera….sera.
