Songs By Destiny

Dear 2023, this moment has to be.

Shall we say goodbye and call it history?

Every hideous thing that could have come forth,

came rushing in like a Trojan horse!

There were pandemics and diseases, too many to believe,

riots and lawmakers too ignorant to achieve!

Carjacking and street takeovers by those who are bad

and our favorite stores closing made most of us mad!

This wild ride referred to as the previous year, 

Hi Lovelies,Do you know what I miss? I miss the simple things, and I could name several, but right now, I miss creating my own whimsical graphics, time spent alone to write, sitting at Starbucks in Crystal Cove with my mate, and not knowing what I know right now! NOTE TO SELF: Do not look back! You know how that makes you feel! “Let your eyes look straight ahead; fix your gaze directly before…

Recently, someone asked me if I would record a cover song titled Landslide. I do not record covers, but as I was listening to the lyrics of that song, a thought came to mind about how hard it is to start your life over

Hi Lovelies,It has been a minute since I posted here. As I mentioned, I am spending more time at hookwriter.com, so join me there if you’d like to connect. Recently, someone asked me if I would record a cover song titled Landslide. I do not record covers, but as I was listening to the lyrics of that song, a thought came to mind about how hard it is to start your life over, especially when all…

Dear Lovelies, As a songwriter, where my thoughts go, my music  flows; this is wonderful for creating a story that takes the listener where I want to take them however, where it isn’t so wonderful is when I am not controlling my thoughts.

“4 For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God  for pulling down strongholds, 5 casting down arguments and every high  thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every  thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,” 2 Corinthians 10:4-5

The above scripture refers to so many thought patterns however, in  this post, I will remind you to be careful not to buy into the lie that  you have to work, work, work, go, go, go to achieve things you dream:  Relax, trust GOD, take your time, have a plan, write it down, and then  allow things to unfold as intended.

“You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in  your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed.”  Psalm 139:16

HERE’S THE NUGGET: Accomplishing things in  stress and angst will only leave you unsatisfied (and miserable to be  around), and if you cannot feel satisfied, you will never be happy in or  with anything entrusted to you. Luke 16:10

Hi Lovelies, Tonight was one of those rare occasions that I accompanied my mate on a shopping trip. We had so much fun, and it never ceases to amaze me how much we have in common. While we are completely opposite in personalities, we sure mesh when it comes to not caring what people think; we love to play, love people, and love life! At the checkout area, there was this cool children’s hanging…

Dear wonderful, If someone doesn’t love you for you, turn and walk the other way. When you feel that you have to perform to be accepted, you have lost the very thing that makes you UNIQUE.

“Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it.” Psalm 139:14

GOD made you PERFECT and none can deny, but some can’t handle it, and that is why. © Bye Bye…it’s their loss!

A LIFETIME OF CHANCE OR THE CHANCE OF A LIFETIME?

Hi Lovelies,There are times in life when you will only have one chance; a chance in a lifetime, to grab hold of something that you want-And consider the following scripture: “11 I returned and saw under the sun that— The race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to men of understanding, nor favor to men of skill; but time and chance happen to them…
