Its Not My Cross To Bear

I have not come, yeah, to testify
About our bad, bad misfortune and I aint here a wondrin why.
But Ill live on and Ill be strong
cause it just aint my cross to bear.
I sat down and wrote you a long letter, it was just the other day.
Said, sure as the sunrise, baby, tomorrow Ill be up and on my way.
But Ill live on and Ill be strong
cause it just aint my cross to bear.
But in the end, baby, long towards the end of your road,
Dont reach out for me, babe, cause Im not gonna carry your load.
But Ill live on and Ill be strong
cause it just aint my cross to bear.

The unwanted

I have been given good times.
Let me face bad times too.
I have been given successes.
Let me taste failures too.
I have been shown to fortunes.
Let me bear with misfortunes too.
Otherwise, I’m an ungrateful dog.

Only for you

I can bear any insult
I can bear any misdeed
I can bear any oppression
I can bear the wounds of love or
Those of hatred
I can bear everything
But only for you God
Only for you.

Rumi

Every day I bear a burden

Every day I bear a burden, and I bear this calamity for a purpose:
I bear the discomfort of cold and December's snow in hope of spring.
Before the fattener-up of all who are lean, I drag this so emaciated body;
Though they expel me from two hundred cities, I bear it for the sake of the love of a prince;
Though my shop and house be laid waste, I bear it in fidelity to a tulip bed.
God's love is a very strong fortress; I carry my soul's baggage inside a fortress.
I bear the arrogance of every stonehearted stranger for the sake of a friend, of one long-suffering;
For the sake of his ruby I dig out mountains and mine; for the sake of that rose-laden one I endure a thorn.
For the sake of those two intoxicating eyes of his, like the intoxicated I endure crop sickness;
For the sake of a quarry not to be contained in a snare, I spread out the snare and decoy of the hunter.
He said, "Will you bear this sorrow till the Resurrection?" Yes, Friend, I bear it, I bear it.
My breast is the Cave and Shams-e Tabrizi is the Companion of the Cave.

A strong Bear, a poor cave

A quarrel took place,
Between a tight, narrow cave,
and a huge, black, hairy bear.
the poor cave was afraid of,
her narrowness,
the bear had no fear.

Actually, the bear was
in search of a cave,
where he could spent
his night merrily,
his mission was to hide himself,
by all means, fair or unfair.
The bear begged the shelter,
from the cave to get entered,
but cave denied.

she said, ' I am not wide.
if I take you in,
you may get me in trouble,
every thing mine get in disorder.
how can you stay in me quite?
seek other place to-night.'
The bear snored a loud,
as if, thunders of big cloud.
huge bear tried getting forcibly in,
smiled and said, 'I have to win.

O' poor cave, see my strong body,
look at my height!
I am quite black,
while you are white.
you are unaware of facts,
you are mine, my cave,
you are made for me.

I know, you think yourself too small,
If I enter, you will be torn,
and might get burst,
but it is nothing like this,
surrender yourself
before me silently.
or I will react violently.

the little cave said nothing,
but tried to scape herself,
with all her might.
thrusting the bear out.
Bear so huge, no doubt.
He tried utmost entering forcibly,
getting success a little bit.
until the cave burst,
the bear continued to hit.

At last, a hot bloody stream,
blew out of the cave.
It couldn't itself save.
It was torn and oozing sweat.
the huge bear was running,
in and out very smoothly,
Poor cave, in this struggle,
has become out.
the bear has come first, no doubt.

A Strong Man

A strong man isn’t the one that can lift 1000 pounds
A strong man is the one that can lift his family spirits

A strong man isn’t the one that wins every arm wrestling contest
A strong man is the one that lets his young child bet him at every arm wrestling contest

A strong man isn’t the one that never sheds a tear
A strong man is the one that tears up when each of his children are born

A strong man isn’t the one that gets angry and curses
A strong man is the one that keeps his cool even at the most trying of times

A strong man isn’t the one that never shows affection
A strong man is the one that always lets his family know what they mean to him

A strong man isn’t the one that leads his family
A strong man is the one that walk beside his family

A strong man isn’t the one who says he’ll be there
A strong man is the one that is there

Ask yourself, are you A Strong Man or A Strong Man

Signed: A Strong Man

Be Strong!

Be strong!
We are not here to play, to dream, to drift;
We have hard work to do and loads to lift;
Shun not the struggle, face it, ’tis God’s gift.
Be strong, be strong, be strong!

Be strong!
Say not the days are evil—who’s to blame?
And fold the hands and acquiesce—O shame!
Stand up, speak out, and bravely, in God’s Name.
Be strong, be strong, be strong!

Be strong!
It matters not how deep entrenched the wrong,
How hard the battle goes, the day, how long;
Faint not, fight on! Tomorrow comes the song.
Be strong, be strong, be strong!

Times Have Changed

Captain I am sorry that this ship should go a stray
Letting the ocean have it's own way
Lay me down to pass ?to send?, I'll pay for all my sins
Pleading for mercy, my cancel begins
Times have changed, and my vision ain't so strong
For the battle was too long, for me to bear
I don't feel the pain, for my soul is sinking fast
And I know this is the last, the chance for me
In and out of tumor, and in and out of mind
Deeper the ocean, stronger the tide
Stormy seas suround me, no sails to keep me dry
I pray to you captain, but you heard not my cry
Times have changed, and my vision ain't so strong
For the battle was too long, for me to bear
I don't feel the pain, for my soul is sinking fast
And I know this is the last, the chance for me
For me, for my story
Let me lie in peace
I want to say I'm sorry now
Then I'll be on my way
Then I'll be on my way
Then I'll be on my way
Times have changed, and my vision ain't so strong
For the battle was too long, for me to bear
I don't feel the pain, for my soul is sinking fast
And I know this is the last, the chance for me

Tomorrow

Will you be there beside me
If the world falls apart
And will all of our moments
Remain in your heart
Will you be there to guide me
All the way through,
I wonder will you
Walk by my side,
And follow my dreams
And bear with my pride,
As strong as it seems
Will you be there tomorrow
Will you be there beside me
As time goes on by
And be there to hold me
Whenever I cry
Will you be there to guide me
All the way through,
I wonder will you
Walk by my side,
And follow my dreams
And bear with my pride,
As strong as it seems
Will you be there
Tomorrow
