Often and often must he have thought, that, to be or not to be forever, was a question, which must be settled; as it is the foundation, and the only foundation upon which we feel that there can rest one thought, one feeling, or one purpose worthy of a human soul.

If you build that foundation, both the moral and the ethical foundation, as well as the business foundation, and the experience foundation, then the building won't crumble.

This House
(nile rodgers)
This house is built
On a foundation of love
This house is built
On a foundation of love
Our toys are in the attic baby
Pictures on the wall
We can see our memories
From the days past in the mirror
Down the hall, oh yeah
Our love will survive in our own little paradise
So inspired, so inspired
Palatial it may not be
But its a home and a castle to me
A dream from a magazine
And well never give it up cause
This house is built
On a foundation of love
This house is built
On a foundation of love
Ill try to comfort you baby
You try to comfort me yeah
I know you love me
With all your heart, oh yeah

You know that when you are sad
Ill be there in a flash
At the drop of a hat, oh yeah

And you dont have to say a thing
You dont have to ask, cause baby
This house is built
On a foundation of love
This house is built
On a foundation of love

One day really make it big
And I know because our love is so strong
Well always have a home
This house is built
On a foundation of love

On a foundation of love

On a foundation of love
This house is built
On a foundation of love
This house is built

Character is the foundation stone upon which one must build to win respect. Just as no worthy building can be erected on a weak foundation, so no lasting reputation worthy of respect can be built on a weak character.

I Know The Feeling
Thought I was happy thought that my life was made
Guess I believed the colours of love just fade
But now that youre here I can see
What I thought was all over is still here inside of me
And I know the feeling
And I love the feeling
Youre fannin the coals and the flame in my souls all I know
Yes I know the feeling and I love the feeling
Oh this time I swear I wont let it go
Its like I was sleepin waitin to feel your kiss
Id almost forgotten lovin could it be like this
Just open your arms let me fall
I settled for half oh but now I can have it all
Cause I know the feeling
And I love the feeling
This glow that Im getting dont care if Im letting it slow
Yes I know the feeling
And I need the feeling
Oh this time I swear I wont let go
Repeat fade

Everyone Hates Me
The reason I feel so sad
Is because just when I thought that I had a True Friend
The very next I am always ignored
This feeling is painful and I do not know what to say anymore?
I know you think that I am a bad person
Although, if I am bad then why did I even care
In you I thought was a very caring human being
Truly, I wanted to care and never let you go
Reality is I have no friends, everyone hates me
Since, all that happens is people always misunderstand
I am sad, deeply sad
Now I want to forever lose myself, even more
Then, I will be a bad soul, really bad in your view
Think, I will go ahead and let myself be lost
More darkness is to come and I will not be able to survive it.

Today... 'Foundation laid in Zion
There on Zion's mount stands a foundation stone
upon which the church through the ages has grown.
A cornerstone that the Lord Jehovah laid.
A tried and tested stone that will not fade.
How firm a Foundation we have in the Lord
as He builds The Living Church upon His Word.
No other foundation will ever suffice
for we stand upon Christ's perfect sacrifice.
(see also the additional information in the Poet's notes box)
To put it bluntly, I seem to have a whole superstructure with no foundation. But I'm working on the foundation.

Ma Fwend
i thought i was alone
i thought i was the only one in pain
everyday i go through changes that break me down
i stare and think there is no hope
i look at the stars above and think how my goals are unreachable
but then
i look in your eyes and i see hope
i hold your hand amd i feel strength, the strength to carry on
you give me a foundation to stand on and the power to make me strong
you carry me when i am crippled
i am not afraid to call you ma fwend.

Be Still, My Soul, Be Still
Be still, my soul, be still; the arms you bear are brittle,
Earth and high heaven are fixt of old and founded strong.
Think rather,-- call to thought, if now you grieve a little,
The days when we had rest, O soul, for they were long.
Men loved unkindness then, but lightless in the quarry
I slept and saw not; tears fell down, I did not mourn;
Sweat ran and blood sprang out and I was never sorry:
Then it was well with me, in days ere I was born.
Now, and I muse for why and never find the reason,
I pace the earth, and drink the air, and feel the sun.
Be still, be still, my soul; it is but for a season:
Let us endure an hour and see injustice done.
Ay, look: high heaven and earth ail from the prime foundation;
All thoughts to rive the heart are here, and all are vain:
Horror and scorn and hate and fear and indignation--
Oh why did I awake? when shall I sleep again?

Foundation Of Despair
Only on the firm foundation of despair
can habitations of the soul be built
upon the sands of time in which we dare
to turn our backs on gratifying guilt.
Only on the firm foundation of despair
can we sometimes with dignity emerge
unwounded by illusions caused by care
and optimism that we’ve failed to purge.

A Fake World
You, I thought were my true friend
Loved you more than my own little brother
Never did treat you indifferently
However, you are just like others
You go with the wind and follow it
Actually, I thought you will forever remain same
Never ever you will change, I really thought so.
It hurts so much and I cannot express it in words
Thought that you will forever be true to our friendship
Sometimes, I just feel like crying
Although, I do know that it is no use
Since, you do not care
This is another error of having so much faith in someone
Thought, you were my true friend
Will never care about anyone anymore, since a true friend is nobody
All that people do, is go with the wind
Till the wind favours them, they are with it
The moment the direction of the wind becomes less favourable
Everyone stops following it
It hurts, to actually feel this feeling
Nobody cares, it is a fake world.

Heart, come with me
sorry for what I am now
I cannot love you myself
sorry for what I am now
I pretend to have fun every day
I believe something
a lot of miracles will come back to happen to me
sorry for what I am now
I didn't study a lot
sorry for what I am now
I tried to make the person feel comfortable
even though I was demeaned for an incident
I believe something
a lot of happiness beyond my expectation is waiting for me
I do love myself, family and all my friends
sometimes we have disagreements
but they are there for me
this is what I have to protect
they are the foundation for me
the foundation would grow juicy
that would become sweeter than ever
wait for that and
let's taste it together, my heart
please come with me
