Gail Sheehy

There is no more defiant denial of one man's ability to possess one woman exclusively than the prostitute who refuses to redeemed.

The Real Strength of a Woman

Everyone wonders what’s her secret?
The mother with 3 kids and no father to support them
The woman with cancer who still manages to come out on top
The grandmother who is forced to be a mother yet again because
Of her daughters mistakes

I wonder myself and I still have a long way to go
But I believe that they all have one thing in common….
The Real Strength of a Woman

The ability to shield themselves from the hurt while in others view
The ability to make their children believe that everything will be ok
The ability to make everything ok despite their hurdles
The ability to stay close to God despite how difficult it may seem
The ability to be strong and remain a brick wall for their loved ones

A real woman can console others even when she is worse off
She can find it in her heart to somehow give, even when no one is giving her
She can endure many hardships and sacrifices because of the ones she loves
Yet she somehow still remains strong

I still don’t fully know the strength of a woman
But every woman out there that I’ve seen, met or come into contact with
All possess these qualities in one way, shape or form

I was a woman

I am not a clever woman
I was a woman who understood

I'm not a strong woman
I was a very brave woman

I'm not an arrogant woman
I am a woman who has self-esteem

I'm not a proud woman
I am a woman trying to protect a fragile heart

But actually I created as being a weak
that should be protected and cherished
Although God gave me the ability to face the cruel life in solitude

Where the mistake never teaches:

Man refuses to learn from the past mistakes.
Having bitten by women after woman,
He still goes woman after woman

Robert Louis Stevenson

Ad Olum

CALL me not rebel, though { here at every word
{in what I sing
If I no longer hail thee { King and Lord
{ Lord and King
I have redeemed myself with all I had,
And now possess my fortunes poor but glad.
With all I had I have redeemed myself,
And escaped at once from slavery and pelf.
The unruly wishes must a ruler take,
Our high desires do our low fortunes make:
Those only who desire palatial things
Do bear the fetters and the frowns of Kings;
Set free thy slave; thou settest free thyself.

Woman 5

Many woman had affair with me
I married some of them
I loved them all of them
I never learned art of discrimination
Between wife prostitute and fiance
They are woman for me
Created by my God.

While one party may possess the levers of power, one party does not possess a monopoly on good ideas. Good lawmaking, after all, is about the ability to craft effective solutions.

Kept Beliefs Discovered to Smother

The practice of denial,
Keeps a feeling.
That one is trapped.
And becoming offended by others,
Usually keeps a mind wrapped.
Quick to defend.

Holding onto perceptions believed,
Is not a freeing done.
If one feels discomfort.
By what is said and by which ones.

And it is not easy to release,
From kept beliefs discovered to smother.
Until another seems to care less.
How and who addresses a differentness,
They possess.
With a showing of less or no stress.

The practice of denial,
Keeps a feeling.
That one is trapped.
And traps hold and keep intact,
That which is not freed.
Physically, mentally or spiritually.

The prostitute is not vulnerable

A prostitute and a virgin,
Let them take sanyasin,
Who will come out without stains?
With unspent libido in smoulder,
It is nun who commits sin.
An empty vessel does not leak.
A prostitute is a spent force.

Midnight Prostitute

There she goes again
Flagging me down in the rain
Yes, she is cute

Midnight prostitute
Roaming the red light district
With conventions of her own so strict

A tenner for an ice cream
Fifty for a lay
A hundred for the day

She is a woman of the streets
A working class brain
In the sunlight she cleanses her stains

I beg of you no condemnation
I beg of you no disrespect
You and I are not even near perfect

There she goes again
Midnight Prostitute
A tenner for an ice cream
Fifty for a lay
A hundred for the day
Marriage for the year
I fear!

I Am Greed, I Am, I Am

I am greed...
I travel with wide spread fast speed.

From man to woman and man...
As fast as i seriously may or can.

For i am the emotion that is hardest for all to leave as beat...
I instill to the beastly man intolerable jealousy and hateful heated heat.

Greed does take away all mens rights as freed...
For i am man's most hated breed.

I perform all types of evil breeded seed...
I grow up taller than many other types of a well growing of a weed.

I branch out as if in lately fashionable style...
I can't be stopped, to this fact there is no denial.

I possess many a soul...
I remove from man and woman an unreachable saintly filled like like lifely goal.

Greed, that i am...
I am not of an honorable sham.

That i am, i am, i am.
I could even be considered one undesirable unwanted themed ham.

That i am, i am, i am.
I am greed, that be right am i am.

The schools would fail through their silence, the Church through its forgiveness, and the home through the denial and silence of the parents. The new generation has to hear what the older generation refuses to tell it.

Since the birth of our Nation, no other right has been more important than having the ability to vote. Unfortunately, as history has shown, the denial of this right to minorities is a scar on our system of democracy.

The three parts of the theory are analytical ability, the ability to analyze things to judge, to criticize. Creative, the ability to create, to invent and discover and practical, the ability to apply and use what you know.

Paulo Coelho

Once upon a time, there was a prostitute called Maria. Wait a minute. "Once upon a time" is how all the best children's stories begin, and "prostitute" is a word for adults. How can I start a book with this apparent contradiction?

It Is Sad

- It is sad when the cloud form but failed to rain.
- It is sad when you feel hungry and the mouth refuses
to eat.
- It is sad when you smile and the face continues to
frown.
- It is sad when you weep and tears refuses to flow.
- It is sad when you cut and the knife refuses to tear.
- It is sad when the child is more patient than the father.
- It is sad when false is the right answer and true is the
wrong option.
Ponder This now and act later, yesterday comes, today is
going, let tomorrow rest!
