Our firm conviction that ours is a just cause and that we must find a peaceful way to attain our goals gave us the strength and the awareness of the limits beyond which we must not go.

0120 Child on a swing
playground
higher and higher
the swing squeaking, creaking
but firm
the child laughing
testing the limits of freedom
the freedom of limits
sensing but forgetting
the firm post on which it swings
firm as a parent's love
unmoving stillness
the child swinging
both held in love
for Skadi meic Beorh

Courage is more than standing for a firm conviction. It includes the risk of questioning that conviction.

I Am Not Here To Revisit Your Limits
I want it known...
I didn't appear here,
To be absent from view.
I want it known by you,
Everything I do...
Is to show you and prove,
I didn't come to revisit your limits.
Or restrict my wishes to live,
Within barriers you've picked.
I refuse to accept it.
Fear and the thought of threats with anguish,
Are not for me delicious treats to feed consistently...
On any basis you face with convincing conviction.
You are going to find a leaving that behind,
With me...
A done deal.
And this is not an appeal for your opinion.
I didn't come to revisit your limits.
Or restrict my wishes to live,
Within barriers you've picked.
I refuse to accept it.
Come on...
Debate with me later.
But I am sure in your mind,
Little time you will find for that.
Come on...
I am not here to revisit your limits.

Turteltauben
Being able to tell you;
With this same conviction,
With this same strength,
With this same overpowering motion,
Like that first day, that first minute, that first second,
A year, then two, and then another five,
Until I'm old, until I'm frail, maybe even a little bit insane...
That I love you, that I still do, as I always said I would,
Like tomorrow, like yesterday, like ever before,
Or even after; never less, rather more,
With this same overpowering motion,
This same strength,
This same conviction,
Within this same moment, this right instant...

Nobody - myself included - believes that we could ever achieve total information awareness. But the government needs to set goals and long-range objectives. Total information awareness is a good goal.

The Strength Within
The dark clouds are filling the skies.
The rain will soon settle in.
My sorrow then begins to rise.
Find strength within, find strength within.
All of the mountains are steeper ahead,
And I've struggled thust far I've been.
I calmly lower my head.
Find strength within, find strength within.
The world around me is dying.
Surrender is conquering a thousand men.
The life within me is crying.
Find strength within, find strength within.
I use to wonder when I'd walk my last mile,
Until I found Jesus, my friend.
Now there's a reason to smile!
I've found strength within, I've found strength within.

Philippians 4: 13
The strength to resist the night
The strength to endure the day
The strength to keep righteous paths in sight
The strength to take them without delay
The strength to find a purpose in life
The strength to find the truths it brings
The strength to kick away from strife
The strength to stabalize the rock it clings
The strength to light a friend’s day up
The strength to resist wrathful foes
The strength to fill a stranger’s dry cup
The strength to shun sin when it opposed
The strength to feel a injured man’s pain
The strength to hold a reject’s hand
The strength to act against any gain
The strength to love without demand
The strength to understand that our King
Has blessed us with more than we can contain
Therefore regardless what time may bring
The strength will continue to reign

Nothing Wrong
There is nothing wrong to be visionary
It is powerful tool of man called ordinary
Sometimes it becomes so paramount
As even small things are taken into account
We can dream but can’t remain slave to illusion
There is clear cut difference for so called vision
Illusion confines you to be the slave all times
Vision leads you to the success but fails only sometimes
Day and months may pass off with inaction
Vision may allow you to plan for action
You may find sweet fruit at the end
This may become possible only with assertion and clear trend
We always strengthen the roots of plant
So it may stand erect and not slant
It will draw strength from earth base
It will be firm and not transitory phase
So it is not simple to become visionary
You have to plan many things and carry
The mission in its logical conclusion
With firm determination towards solution
The storm may lash the ground
But some extra strength you have found
You can counter it as firm rock
You have all the strength in your stock
You may feel weary sometimes
The sun may me be shadowed sometimes
Yet you may loose with the hope of bright tomorrow
This strength may drive you with firm resolve to grow

Strength, Courage, Believe, And Strong
You gave me the strength
to get up when i fall down,
You gave me the strength
to pull myself through whatever
was holding me back,
You gave me the strength to
believe in myself when no one
really did.
You gave me the strength,
when all i wanted to do was cry,
You gave me courage when i
didnt have the guts to speak my mind to
others who were hurting me,
You gave me the courage
when i didnt want to stand up
for what was right and wrong.
You believed in me when people
told me I was nothing,
You believed in me when i said
i cant do something,
You kept me strong when
i felt like no one understood me,
YOU LET ME BE MYSELF.

My strength! !
Find a hook, find a rock,
Anything to hold onto,
Don't let go and hold on tight,
And you'll get through it with them.
When darkness feels all around,
Mum's scowl making me shiver and cry,
I cling to my rock, my strength,
My Dad's love inside.
Find your strength, whatever it may be,
For me it was Him, who will yours be?
Confidence? Brother? Sister? Friend?
There is someone, they are in front of you!
Let your rock, your strength hold you high,
Let it all out to them and let out the pain,
My Strength is my Dad, the love he always gave,
With my inner flame, saved me from the grave.

You're Off-Limits
If you think I'm easy
thing again big boy.
'Cause I am not a plaything.
I'm nobody's toy.
If you think I'm easy
you picked the wrong one.
'Cause I am not a plaything
to be put away when done.
'Cause all that I gave you
I gave from the heart
and all that tou took babe
you took from the start.
Now the takin' is real easy.
It's the givin' that is hard
You just can't go halfway,
you go the whole yard.
And since you couldn't do that
I've put up my guard.
You're off-limits baby.
you broke all the rules.
You're off-limits baby
'Cause I'm nobody's fool.
If you think I'm crazy,
think again big guy.
I'm just as sane as you are.
I can tell you lie.
And that's what you gave me.
At first I thought I'd die
But now you're off-limits
and here's the reason why.
All that I gave you
I gave you from the heart.
And all that you took babe
you took from the start.
Now the takin' is real easy.
It's the givin' that is hard.
You just can't go halfway.
You go the whole yard.
And since you couldn't do that
I've put up my guard.
You're off-limits baby.
You broke all the rules.
You're off-limits baby.
'Cause I'm nobody's fool.

Demographics had established,
The success and conditions...
Of a targeted marketing.
To direct effective hype,
Among those selected to be chosen.
Those days have faded away,
From the land of steady habits.
And drift as nomads depleted of funds,
Are those unable to repay for a credited feasting done.
And elimination of debits wished,
Increase and do not leave.
So those rush away in the kicking up of dust...
With tears from their eyes drippimg as they weep.

Those enforced to be meek and weak,
Are solicited to exhaust their kept treasures.

We Made it Happen.
For years this dusty track trekked
Most times on empty stomach
But always full of enthusiasm
Flowing from pride and hope
The pride of being a scholar
The hope of becoming a giant
Like the city heavy weights
We had cause to make it happen
For years their trivial takings exhausted
Most times own pleasure forfeited
But always beaming with conviction
Emanating from pride and hope
The pride of being a responsible parent
The hope of breeding a star
Like the few celebrities around
They had ground to make it happen
For years we studied seriously
Most times having sleepless nights
Always pushed by conviction and awareness
The conviction that education is key to success
Awareness of the fact, very obvious
Success stems from hard work
Persistence, passion and poise
These weapons made it happen
For many years our dreams kept alive
Fuelled by unwavering hope
Hope of future bright
Future void of this poverty, blight
Equipped with tool to change families’ plight
Ushering comfort and self-esteem to parents
Parents who extracted wealth from soil
To invest in our education
To ensure we reached our destination
We made it happen
