Favorite Quote:
He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless
Even youths will become weak and tired, and young men will fall in exhaustion
But those who trust in the Lord will renew their strengths.
They sill soar on wings like eagles... Isaiah 40:29-30


Here is to you: the blind.
Unable to see the world
for what we truly are.
Shame, Guilt, Death, Sin–
the second hand smoke from society’s cigar.

Here is to you: the blind.
Your qualities ever so great––
personality before appearances.
Shame, Guilt, Death, Sin––
in your opinion, will have no interference.

Here is to you: the blind.
Burdened by this limitation,
you are never impacted from society.
Shame, Guilt, Death, Sin–
Arising no anxiety.

Here is to you: the blind
Who if we the people
Were you.
Our Shame, Guilt, Death, Sin––
Would bid us adieu.

Here’s to you: the blind
Making this world a better place,
You spread the emotions you show best––
Peace, Joy, Compassion, Endurance––
And leave this world feeling blessed.
