Good And Faithful Servant: A Poem

She calls on her God when her feet grow weary.

Strands of hair blowing in the wind.

She stands against the world,

not ready to break nor bend.

Her energy and power radiate

as she stands on the ledge,

overlooking the world that alienates

her.

She knows her worth

is equivalent to

the stars, the sun, the earth

and even the moon.

Her soul is one of many tales

of tragedy and sorrow;

where love always fails

and where yesterday is the same as morrow.

But the love stays in her heart

and she gives until it hurts

because she believes she should impart

the love and grace of God disperse.

Her strength comes from the mountains

and valleys that surround her.

Her inspiration comes from the pounding

waterfall, it runs through her like ampere.

She calls on her God for help

when her feet grow weary.

For she knows when she is weak

He will carry His child home,

to where she will find what she seeks.

A world where no one is dejected

instead, one where people are free

to be the true them without being rejected.

A world where all praises are given to Thee.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
