2009-THOUGHT FOR THE DAY(PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

Thought for the day

Though I am always running around doing work or trying to play. In Him I rest, for now there is no other way. For all that is here, is only temporary. As life moves forward this too shall pass. I can only hope my faith is true; and I am worthy enough for His eternal grace. Because I just can't wait for that tropical island, with the music playing around, and nothing but smiles on everyone's face.

With no room for sorrow; no room for hate.
No regrets or pain of hurt in any state.

To share the love, even when at once it was thought to be lost.
Life will be grand, as Jesus has already gauranteed that, when he paid the cost.

2009-I can't reach her!(PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

The most painful times in life are when you watch those you love; die a slow death at others hands.
And they just won't take stock in the truth they are worth so much and have been giving so many precious un-replacable blessings. That once they are gone; a light goes out making this world an even darker place to reside.

I pray our God can protect and hold the innocent dear. While we are lost and just don't see the dangers, because of or co-dependency of needing to be controlled, loved, and wanted.

Even when it is by all the wrong things of this life!

2009-To everything there is a season(PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

"To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven." Ecclesiastes 3:15


Autumn leaves are falling -- a beautiful sight, but to many people a sad one too, because it means that summer's blooms and brightness will soon be replaced by winter's barrenness and darkness.

But why be sad? Scripture tells us that every season has its beauty and its purpose. Think about the special beauties of winter that we can look forward to: The glow of a warm fire…sunlight sparkling on ice-covered branches or moonlight shining on snow… the way we can see further without leaves on the trees…and of course the magical and holy time of Christmas. And think about the purpose of winter: Nature rests and renews itself for new growth. In the same way we can renew ourselves, by using the extra time we must spend indoors for prayer and study of God's Word.

At OurPrayer.org, one thing that is common to every season is the faithfulness of our volunteers in lifting up to the Lord every prayer request we receive. When you entrust your deepest concerns to us we are honored to pray for you by name and need. May God bless you in this and every season of your life.

2009-If I kept a diary(PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

If I kept a diary it may read something like this.

Dear Lord
Today is such and such a day. Nothing out of the unusual on this day.
As you know before it even occurs; my life is always a whirlwind.

My alarm went off at 4am, as I lay there and try to think of worthy words to say to you. The only thing I could get out was giving thanks for another day, asking forgiveness on all the things that I just don't get, or miss. And protection and your will for myself, my family and all those who can not protect themselves.

On this day in particular; how tired am I from the emotional, physical changes continually going on. The stress of worry for my daughter and her daughter and all that has transpired. The endless thoughts of could I have done anything different to make it turn out differently.

To the peace I have with you, knowing without the trials in life; I would not be the person I am today.

So I never picked my life in a sense. I never planned on being awaken at 10 years old from a sound sleep being raped, by my mothers friend who she entrusted me with. Losing a period of time in my life I honestly never really want to get back. I never planned being so wasted with drugs and alcohol from ages 10-16 and living through so many injuries, accidents and willful attempts to just die due to loneliness abandonment. Where everything or everyone I got close to just went away.

With much empathy Lord for all those who have been so lost in this life.

Yet on the same token. I give thanks for although years later I got it. It was you that kept me alive.


Through being abused by strangers, fed full of drugs, reckless deadly accidents, several attempts on my life. You never hardened my heart.

On this day like many others I climbed out of bed by 4:15 wandering around taking care of my pets, and pulling myself together to drive that hour ride into a place of employment. Which so many no longer have, pets that make me crazy because I only really took on 2 myself and have a houseful due to rescue efforts of others to me. Yet I am saddened because one of the 2 I raised for 13 years was let out in a brand new neighborhood and never found her way back home.

I am use to it by now I think. You know Lord something’s are just engrained in us. But the pains of things we love and care for going away no longer throws me into a self destruct mode.

Oh how foolish I was as a child, but then again what did I know. No father, and a mother always pre – occupied and gone to be working.
Living in a home in a New York State Winter with no heat, no hot water, and our favorite meals were eggs, beans and spaghetti.

How badly we thought we had it back then, and we make it our life goal to keep our own children from experiencing any of what we went through.

Yet what that does is just enable them to not appreciate and facilitate positive motivated goals for their own future.

Dear Lord on this day I felt the need to write again. As the tiredness of life has kept my head in a dust cloud the past couple days, from that whirlwind of life’s events.

So much so that I stupidly rush off in a hurry to no where, and get myself a citation for speeding. Although I am still trying to figure out how the person in front of me got pulled over too. And they were told they were going 55 and yet I was doing 60 directly behind them.

Life is so convoluted. Trust me when I say I deserve a ticket, because just the day before again I raced off to no where just because I was exhausted and needed to get home and work. Not rest but work.

Well you know how I am.

Lord I could be referring this to dear diary. But I really have no bond with a diary.

You know I have sometimes really planned things out and made choices and felt good, and some have turned out really great. When others just about destroyed me.

I wish I knew what you have in store for me. I wish I knew why as a young girl before the age of 10 I would sit in my room with records playing full blast and sing my heart out. Dreaming of someday I would have a husband, family, and a cottage with the little white picket fence.

Yet instead I have been single more then not, even though divorced twice. Giving it my best shot with those so un matched. And eventually with my home put up the white lattice fencing myself.

I am still lonely Lord. But you fill my heart and soul with your mercy, grace ,peace and love.

I have been blessed with my biological brother and sister. And your kingdom filled with beautiful people.

Where I day dream at times what it would be like to be married to a Godly man. And then I realize I need to just leave things be.
If you want me with someone you will have that person take a stand.

That although I don’t know where I am going. I know where I have been. And you have carried me through so many obstacles.
Thank you for allowing me to be your child, sister and friend.

Lord if I wrote a diary I am not sure it would be any different with the words I say day to day.
But for now thank you with all I am for your guidance, wisdom and ability to pray.

So with that bless all and keep them from dismay.


Until next time I write I will see you some day.

2009-Life Is Poetic(PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

Colorful and Dark

Some in our life will fill us with purpose.

Some just with noise, or nerve- breaking-drama,
Clearly never good for us.


So as our Father of the Heavens
Gives us our desires; be it beautiful skylines
Or the sun set on fire.

Always remember the TRUTH

No matter how good the words sound

Reach for what is real

As a lie will always be a lie
As will Satan be a liar!

2009-The Vine(PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

The Saturday night Vine Done Differently service came to a close 9-26-2009.
It has been a most uplifting journey.

Sharing and caring with what are like family and in my heart always my friends.

What started out as just doing; turned into a fulfilling God filled adventure.
To give is always better then to receive. Many of us know we can never get time back.

But for me and the others that pulled together to make things happen; just showing up willing to serve was the ultimate gift of all.

I personally could not have done my part; without all those who dedicated their time
To Speak
To worship
To sing’
To play in the band
To light candles
And to come and be fed or to just be themselves

I have many thanks to all; and to my God above for this door he opened and allowed me to walk through during the Vine Service / Vine Café cycle.
I can not imagine where I would have been, if I was not able to grow during this time with everyone who pulled this together. Thank you all; Thank you Jesus!   
With all that I am, All that I was always then, always now, always me  Kelly


The Vine and the Branches
1"I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes[a] so that it will be even more fruitful. 3You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. 4Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.
5"I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. 6If anyone does not remain in me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. 7If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you. 8This is to my Father's glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.

9"As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father's commands and remain in his love. 11I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. 12My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. 13Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. 14You are my friends if you do what I command. 15I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. 16You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit—fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name. 17This is my command: Love each other

2009-Everything Comes Full Circle; Pray about your Choices(PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

Do you ever feel like you don’t know whether to just quit or continue the battle?
Where you are not one to give up or give in.
But you have to accept defeat in some situations, because there is no way to win.

Do you ever feel the pains of choices once made?
Kind of like when you've lost an important race.

No matter what you do, no matter what you say.
Things just won’t get back on track and the garbage just won’t go away.

I have to refer a song.
Where I may stumble; I may fall down; but I will not be moved!
I have made mistakes; and have faced heartaches but I will not be moved!

I know we all have demons in our closet.
No matter how badly we try to get it right.
It just never disappears from our sight.

Perhaps not anything terrible to most
But to us they leave us feeling as a surrogate host.
You know they are always out there even if they really are not your own.
Which leaves second guessing, always testing always looking for new ways to make something not broken better.
What is that; if it is not broken; don’t mess with it; don’t fix it.
So why do we constantly strive to make things as good as the next guy?
Leaving us in a vicious circle
Of self inflicted wounds; guilt from lack of knowledge
Anger at yourself so that there is no room for others to point out
Sometimes our choices make us look like fools.


It is not the end; there is no doom and gloom
But for crying out loud will the next time around be prayerfully thought out
And that there is nothing so important in life that must by pass prayerful thoughts or be rushed.

2009-Giving Thanks Daily(PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

I thank God daily he never allowed my heart to be hardened!

Although somedays it is like a bitter pill to swallow; when it comes to just day to day and how so many beautiful people waste their lives; or are so lost they don't know what it is like to open their hearts or eyes to kindness.

I remember how I was from my childhood through my teen years.

How wasteful and wasted I walked around always. How all I could see was the pain, the hurt, the loneliness that had always been with me.

And how I felt no one really cared, so if I were going to live, it had to be dangeroulsy. That life was painful so if I died it really did not matter.

No mother around, a father that threw us away. All there were drugs, and alcohol and what ever we could find to entertain ourselves.

We would hang out with those who we thought were better then us, and on some days judged us as so. For what we had or didn't have. For where we lived or couldn't live.

We grew up tough, wreckless where one day those we thought were your best friend, the next you were fighting for respect.

How funny those we thought were better then us turned out to have the same problems or worse then we could have ever imagined.

But in the end it didn't matter. Brokeness was all we knew and all we used for the excuse to party.

The sad part was this was the way of life. We grew together wasting a life with no one to guide us back. We took every bit of hurt and let downs from what was suppose to be our family and built walls all around us.

We placed ourselves at risk day in and day out. Can I tell you how many adults really are out there to take advantage of children. Sickening, and sad!

We as kids, never really caring what would happen next. Because no one cared anyway.

Broken arms, broken legs, dislocated jaw, stitches, being thrown from a van that rolled on the way home from a party 4 days before my 15th birthday. And none of it really mattered.

It was all just part of the process, that was what life was all about. After all when you grow up with nothing, and you know what it is like to live in a house in the middle of a New York winter with no heat or hot water.

And all you can remember is how the friend your mother had ruined your life, to what you swore many times was forever. remembering what it was like at 10 years old with no to rescue you no one ever came when you cried out. There was never anything to live for.

I thank God every day that over the years he; God gave me light, he changed my life, and he showed me just how differant it really should be. He gave me the opportunities of wrong and right. He kept me alive so many times!

I don't know when, I dont' know how. Lord knows I was hard headed and tried to fill so many gaps along the way. Giving in Giving up so many times to what was wrong.

And even though I changed dramatically when I decided the only way I could stay alive was to have children, even though I knew it was a risk I may die during child birth.

He blessed me. But like many, all I knew was the world, and it took me years to get in the good book. It took me years to trust anyone much less an organization or a church or anyone within.

Although I tried on many times, even tought Sunday school at one point. But it was just not my time. I still held on to the dependency finding someone in need, and enabled just because I needed a full family, something I never had. And when my childs father turned dangerous and placed my child in harms way. I would go and years later try again with having my second child.

My theme, that in shortn was nothing but wreckless free will choices.

For years thinking I could do it all, that it would never matter what anyone else would do around me, that I would be fine, I could handle it.

How funny the pain felt when reality set in. To know what it is like to have a gun held to your head, to have someone you love try to stab you with an ice pick in the shower, to have mental and physical degrading abuse. To have them hurt what was your life your children. And the day you come home to have your son crying to please take you out of the home you were trying to maintain because your husband was beating him. And all you ever knew snapped and went after the man that turned you into a rag doll. Yet you were given strength to stand tall and just look and tell them you hoped they felt like a real man now. And leave with absolutely nothing because he controlled everything.

I thank God my heart never hardened as the pain crushed me for I swore if I ever married it would be once and only once. Yet to save my children, I walked away.

To go home and know for the first time the only thing my mother could ever say was how how bad I looked all the time and that I needed to do something with myself. Even when she knew everything I ever had was gone not even a car left as he took everything from me, everything but my childrens lives or the clothes on our back.

Time went on, and I ran into one of my old buddies from when I was a kid, he helped me back on his feet. Yes that is right. We moved in together and everything was in my name, he helped get furniture and setup as I paid all the bills and before it was over I would marry him out of obligation. Almost seven years then one day he just didn't come home anymore. I don't blame him, I never was in love with him. I loved him as a friend and went through the motions. I owed him whatever I could give back.

Unfortunately those years cost my life and my children's life so much more. Because all that we had was in my name and all the bills and there were many as we lived like the Jone's and myself and children paid dearly.



Thank God he never allowed my heart to be hardened.

Although I crashed and burned. As it was soon after husband number 2 was out of my life when my independence came to a screeching halt.

I lost my job of almost 11 years do to outsourcing.

I was torn. and although I am not proud, I returned to the world of drinking.

I quit as at this time my son moved away from me, my daughter was acting out and I just quit. I buried myself, even though I would walk around the corner and go to church twice a week and just sit there asking for a sign.

Then one day I packed it all up and came to Florida. Thinking geographics would fix things.

It was a hard lesson the the first year I arrived. Totally starting over and fighting with drinking, slowly losing my daughter to drugs and alcohol. And my son already left me.

My daughter; She hated me for allowing her father to come back in her life; and he turned out to being a mean nasty man when he got drinking. Which was every other visit. Never knowing her for the first 10 years and he decides to tell her she is the worse form of life and doesn't be allowed to live; or he was going to leave her in the middle of the moutians where they went camping. So not only was she acting out, but angry for me not protecting her. And all I could do is bury myself with work and when not working partying. hiding in the good times going back into the world. Yet even then I crashed and burned; When it was not until the evening my daughter could not wake me up off the floor because I was so drunk and passed out she thought I was dead. She called blind Pete to ask what should she do.
I eventually got up; Only because someone somewhere had been praying for me.

Not sure how, but that evening I went falling to my knees and crying out, screaming more like it at God.

Crying for everything I had ever went through as a child, for everything I ever caused myself, for everything I did to my children when I quit.

Cried out why me! What did I ever do to be have the life I had. And what did I need to do to change. Asking God to please give me help.

I thank God daily for never allowing me to harden my heart, although it is has a wall around it. He showed me what life was.

No matter how much I messed up, he kept me strong, he kept me differant, he kept me alive.

He built the relationships with my children. And finally allowed me to learn how to communicate. For years I never knew what deep intimate relationships were.

I knew there was love, the caring and sharing for my brother and sister. The pain and fear for my children. But finally to know peace.

Sometimes you have to go through many lessons, much pain and even then sometimes even when you don't realize it. When he can't get through to you, he will go through your children and family or those you really have a deep feeling for.

I thank God he has carried me and my family through all the storms. And although I know the waves will continually come, and some days I will be on my knees crying out again. My father my God will always be there to pick me up.

So when I feel the pains of my friends or family members; when their children or loved one's are going through the demons motions of the world. It pains me; with bitter sweet memories to know just how blessed I have been.

It angers me to know just how stupid and lost they are no matter how God knocks on their doors.

I pray for all my brothers and sisters who know what I am talking about. For I am not alone. Somewhere sometime, someone with experience a death because of the ugliness of this world, some will slowly kill themselves or someone else with their drinking and drugging. Children will be neglected, abused, barely make it out alive, but those that do. I pray God has a plan for them to be a shining light on this dark path.

For those that are so lonely growing up feeling like everything they ever got close to; left them for whatever the reason. May God come into their life early and save them.

For those used and abused by people that are suppose to protect and comfort them. May those doing the harm suffer a much more painful punishment. May all my brothers and sisters in Christ. Never turn away just because they are not like those in great need of even just one hug, or someone to just hear thier cries.



For I give thanks daily, I am still breathing, I still have dreams and desires, for the angels that were on my path along the way and shared 5 minutes of kindness, a hug, food. For what ever the trigger or cause was that made it a point that I had to prove all those who judged me wrong, as to who I was, what I was or where I would end up. For Only God knew and knows.

I thank God daily, I strived for an education and something better in this life then what everyone else had. Even when I struggled at times to be differant.

I thank God daily, for answered prayers that he keep me alive to have children, that he keep me alive to raise my children, and on those times I just wanted to die, He did not listen. Including all the wreckless wasteful worldly occassions. Or just the hours of laying alone in the delivery rooms having my children alone.

I thank God daily, for not allowing my heart to be come hard! Knowing how much I still dream, love, imagine, pray for. And feel good bad or indifferant.

And especially knowing he has allowed me to become past what others think. And fully know there is only one judge in this universe. And of those people of the world think they are it. That is okay. As I will pray and give thanks for knowing they care in their own special way. And redirect what is a waste to hopefully giving back in appreciation knowing my father Lives within me.

With all that I am, All that I was always then, always now, always me  Kelly

2009-NOW AND AGAIN(PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

Every now and again, especially as I wander through some of the things that use to cross my mind.

I wonder what the heck was I thinking.

Although time wise some of the dates really are not that far away.

But for me it seems like an eternity.

Continual writings about looking for that special someone to share my life with.
My soul mate.

It is not far fetched, or even out of the norm.
And I believe every young girl, Young lady or women go through this when they are raised with out a father figure in their life.

I can only state I came from a single parent, no parent family.

Youngest of three, with my sister being the care taker, mother figure and protector.
when she was only four years older then me. With a brother in between us.

I have always loved my sister dearly, although we don't see each other every day and sometimes don't even talk. We have a bond closer then some families that seem to have it all together.

I can tell you from my good, bad and indifferent experiences of life.
I spent years, and lakes worth of tears. With a broken heart wishing and wondering why my father just walked out and discarded us as he did.

As I grew and got involved with the opposite sex; I was easily crushed and always just accepted whatever was thrown my way. Because I felt it was all I was ever good enough for.

It took years, of broken bad relationships, and divorce. To gain my self worth.

And I can't even tell you exactly what triggered the change.

Life was just that; the same old status quot.

But one day I had just had enough of fake; wasteful temporary relationships of every kind.

I continually worked my tail off for everything, at first just to have it all; then later to keep it all.

I always was spiritual; but never really committed to any one church or religous affiliation.

I always helped everyone and their brother; but none that really needed or cared I was helping in the end.

Until something came over me; and one day I just realized all the searching; tears; were no more.

God spoke to me; and allowed me to understand; I was never alone.
All those poems I once wrote about I would rather be alone then with someone and lonely.

He finally filled something in me; Gave me strength; courage; and took away the longing to have that forever partner that would be the man of my dreams.

Be there for me whenever I was in need, comfort me when times were fearful or just tough.

Hold me and love me for me.

He let me know he had be doing that all my life.

Though the stories are many; from the un-Godly dangers I survived as a child.
To the good looking bad boys that generally I had to recover from.

He opened so many doors of communication; showing me I am not alone and the many blessings that await me. If only I believe!

Every now and again; I still long for that special someone to share intimate moments with. Special memories but I know I am not who I once was.

I know even though I made alot of bad choices to do things my; He has carried me through it all and set me free of the bondage.

Sure every now and again when times are tough I wonder what would happen if I had never changed.

Then I realize I should have been dead several times in my life. And God had a purpose for me. He kept me alive.

I mattered, and not just to people but to my maker.

As a young girl I would cry wondering why everything I had gotten close to would go away.

As a women I built a huge wall to keep anyone from ever getting close again.

Yet the more I want to know Jesus the more I want to be around everyone to share life.

I can say that if I could do it over and know what I know now. The most important thing I would do. Is raise my children with biblicle knowledge.

Instead of thinking I could do it all on my own. Because although I did a really good job with what I had to work with. I never had a childhood, I never had security, I never had until my 30s a glimpse of peace.

I spent my life searching for what would fill in that last puzzle peace and working my tail off to correct the fall out because it wasn't the right one.


If there would be anything I could ever tell any Father.

Never leave your children no matter what. You don't have to be there all the time.
But when you are be present; and make it about the quality of time together.
Make them matter. Especially the daughters.

And for the young ladies. Oh I could go on forever.

But first never play second best to anything or anyone.
never put yourself out thinking you will get all you need in return.
Because in the end it is the relationship with Jesus Christ and the bond you make by getting into a really good bible church. That teaches the bible and not religion.

Then surround yourself with positive Godly family people.

It does not matter if you are young or old. Just do it.

You don't have to put yourself out there to be part of something real.
Just be real yourself.

You see ever now and again.

I can hardly get up from the injuries I have endured.

I can hardly breath not knowing why things in my youth happened.

I can hardly sit still due to the anticipation of all the things I have to get done, and give back.

Because my God has given me life. And I know I will never be worthy enough and I wonder when it will end.


It is a crazy way to live. But I have an inner peace with me always that just can't be explained. But I have lived, loved, laughed, cried and been blessed with God's legacy to leave when I am gone.

And for now if God chooses to bless me in unity with someone. Well I am human.

If He chooses not to; as I don't know why I was meant to be alone my entire life.


Well every now and then I will keep saying my prayers to change that.
And do whatever I can to give back for all the glory he has given me.

This may be a little off the wall. But better for my thoughts now then playing catch up living in the past again.

2009_Ethical Issues Paper 1(PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

Should Managers be required to take an in-depth ethics course before becoming managers?

Ethics " Generally, the study of standards of conduct and morality. In practice, ethics is descriptive of the conduct one may expect from a reasonable person under normal circumstances. In addition, many trade groups have established codes of ethics that address specific areas peculiar to their business or industry." Thus quoted straight from "THE NEW INTERNATIONAL WEBSTER'S POCKET DICTIONALRY OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. (2002 EDITION)

Morale oblication which also is defined as "Of a commitment that will be honored because it is the right thing to do and represents the way in which reasonable people deal with one another rather than because of a legal requirement." Again quoted from "THE NEW INTERNATIONAL WEBSTER'S POCKET DICTIONALRY OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE.(2002 EDITION)

Yet in the twentieth century of today's Corporate America we canclearly see where it has and is becoming a necessity of survival to have such mandatory rulings when we look a the Enron failures of this decade. Thus indicating making it a standard procedure that managers be required to take an in-depth ethics courses before becoming managers. Would and could possibly force more positive behaviors if not make people aware of what the outcome may be. Although duly noting you can not take away any persons individualism, and therefore if they choose to act upon greed, fraud or just do not act accordingly to admit or correct issues when they do make legitimate mistakes. Then it would seem we would all fall into the Enron scandals spotlight; to forever haunt and ruin what is deemed as "Land of the Free."

When speaking of ethical behavior one should think it is more critical to reflect on all ethical and moral behaviors, rather then just for those instances of scam artists.

Those who have proved to be very good at damaging if not destroying, such large corporate icons such as Enron, Worldcom's and Arthur Anderson as just a couple examples.

Thus noting in theory, when speaking of ethics, morals or values perhaps more research should be a part of our children's education in America.

Feeling strongly that ethical behaviors should be taught at very early stages of academics and cultivated, within each of us from early childhood. To profoundly influence our actions throughout our entire life.

Giving us such training would allow us, as our conscious forms, to have the sense of moral purpose and wthat within it may guide our most personal thoughts.

Which should place us on the path to force our abilities as well as maintain and limiit our struggles throughout our journeys in life; permanently defining what is right and wrong.

Therefore, as historical events have clearly been displayed; if we do not eliminate the majority of issues early on, the "Band-Aid" effects that take place today.

Such as those which cover-up management dysfunction will no longer matter. Also noting it is my belief we will have many more opportunities to reflect back upon, when referring to the high level of crimes of all types that take place in our cultural today.

Strongly relating back to the lack of ethics and morality standards imposted or utilized by the people in America.

There is no clear percise answer in site; only notable facts that we should be exposing the conflicts and help obtain resoultion right in our own back yard before taking on the issues that occur in other countries. keeping in mind by not doing so has gotten us where we are today as Americans tyring to survive yet never knowing if and when we will utlimately survive that which is out of our control. Such as another Catastrophic war with more terrorist attacks.

In conclusion, it has taken the biggest scandal of 2002, which identified $4 billion dollars in fraud. To start the domino effect of the unethical behaviors that created such a whirlwind of publicity towards the unprecedented amount of bad loans and corporate failures from the Kmart's, Worldcom,Conseco's, and Enron's of America.

For Reality to slap us right in the face, and show us just how vulnerable we really are at a time where dynamic strength and honesty is so badly needed. Thus leaving me to wonder, what will our future bring, or will it be nothing but chaos and mayhem?

1999-REFLECTIONS(PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

Reflections of my life sometimes fit a song.
The lyrics always seem to touch on those emotions inside.
You know the ones that are filled with emptiness, or just so wrong.

Most days feeling as vultures and thieves on my back.
Too Wasted Time, wondering just what was it I lacked.

Reflections of how I sometimes dwell too much , on all the wrong.
Not thankful for the strength, I have grown to have; not to mention just how far I have come along.

Reflectons of the dreams I once had.
Left only to wonder where is that person I once was; Where have my dreams gone.
Why have I become the person lacking trust, only to get love from the movies or a song.

A deep-set sadness dwells in my heart.
Though I will never show others; Besides where would I start?

Reflections of so-called friends.
Or those relationships I dreamed would be forever.
Only to survive with ambitions and knowledge.
Know it had been those glorious days I once captured in between the most miserable times.

This is what has compelled me to survive.

Reflections of where I once started.
That; can never be taken from me, no matter how broken hearted.

1999_THIS HAS TO BE A DREAM(PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

If I could tell you how I feel
If dreams were truly real

Life's compassion would be so ever strong
No one would ever dwell on what is wrong

From now until the end of time
Uniformed in one, that is yours and mine

A common goal, to achieve
But nothing so earth shattering, that we can not breathe

Happy to see me, so sad when you go
So scared and confused some days, of that unknown

So much alike, yet so far apart
The one thing in common, lies deep within our hearts

There is no denial
Touching, kissing, love making; we have no reason to be shy now

You wanting me; I want you
Wishing an eternity of one, not that segregated two

To be with you, anywhere, anytime
Do I hold your attention; you certainly do mine

To hear, to see, to taste to live and breathe
Lusting for you romantically

This has to be a dream, it just could not be
Something this grand, is only found in the movies

1999_ISN'T THIS LIVING HELL(PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

Tell me this isn't living hell
The pain and torment we all go through
We all know so well

They call it the cycle of life
Most don't know what we're talking about
Those who understand just somehow stay high as a kite

For all the good in this world we see
Within time the bad over comes, doubles it has for me

Trying my best, to keep up with all of these tests
I'll never know if I am unique or just damn crazy

What ever the case may be
This living hell is taking my life, creating my insanity

1999_MYSTIFIED(PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

I have watched you watching me.
With my interests getting the best of all I do, all I see.
Thus leaves me totally mystified, which just should not be.

Such a beautiful smile you shine.
Handsomely rewarded, has purely justified you over time.

Your interests have my bewilderment.
Thus leaves me totally mystified, which just should not be.

No words you speak
Afraid are you; of a history; afraid of contact, friendship, hurt or pain.
Who knows maybe psychotic, just trying to refrain?

Curiosity is getting the best of me.
Thanks to my passion for life, or is it rules to survive?
If there is nothing to lose, there is surely nothing to gain.

No lessons to learn; leaves no room to teach.
Therefore, I approach you with foolish actions, and a few logical words to speak.
Thus leaves me totally mystified, which just should not be.

What ever the case; as strange as it seems.
You have invaded my thoughts, getting into my dreams.
Thus leaves me totally mystified, which just should not be.

Like a ghost or magic, you have somehow appeared.
Just as quickly to pull away, when I feel I am getting near.
With me left to wonder; how this is so weird.

Not a conquest, journey, or some infamous theory or rule.
Frightened are you, of me I doubt.

Maybe cautious; consumed, or not to allow anyone close, playing a game, who will be to ever find out?

Believe when I say, no one likes to be played as someone's fool.
Why do you think my actions remain so out landish, so cool?
Thus leaves me totally mystified, which just should not be.

I maybe fun, or crazy, weekend warrior, hanging with the crowd, or shoothing pool.
Living up to that bar room rule, no way; I maybe lost but I am no fool...

Those on the outside may judge as they might.
No one will ever really know me, just from a Friday or Saturday night.
All I have, all I own, I have worked hard for in all my life. I have very much so earned my pride.

Moreover, for this my ambitions I will never hide.
Not to care what others feel, think or do.
Yet my quest remains just why is it; I have come to meet you?

Knowing, if it is not meant for anything between us too to ever un-cover.
Then please let me in; even if it is only to love you as my brother.
For I really don't want that intimate bond. I just need connections to keep going on.

Thus leaves me totally mystified, which just should not be.

1999_LOOKING FOR FOREVER(PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

I am only human with mistakes and weaknesses of in the past.
But my future is a plan of a forever friendship, companion to last.

No games, no way, no time to play.

Sex has no meaning anymore for me.
Maybe it never did and I just didn't see.

Do you want to live?
Do you want to bond?
Do you believe two can become one?
Togehter exceeding their dreams and far beyond?

Needs are only wants of comfort.
Sharing, Caring, a forever companion and friend.

How strange the sounds when your lonely with no one around.
As it feels when your in a friendship without content.

Because we all know there is no real meaning.
We start to realize thinking back, just how it can become demeaning.

I am in my own prison, so that is why I can't relate to you.

I can't really explain, but only do.

Will I want you yes, everything, everyday. Not just bits and pieces.
With hopes someday you also would want all of me too.

Taking it as high as it gets, flying away with you as the eagles in the sky.

Or knowking I hava a guard to protect me, to hold me in those long dark nights.

Or know there really is someone willing to comfort me, washing away all those tears of fright.

Equality, in return is my lives plan.
Brining one as much happiness, dreams, sunshine in the dimmest of lights.

As long as one wishes, as long as one shows.
Forever I would be by their side never letting go.

I need nothing to survive. Because I am good at avoidence, I know how to hide.

But in all honesty for each time someone shows distrust, I die a little more inside.

Rescue me; make me once again believe.
Release yourself, set yourself free.

Let the days of kings and queens forever be.

Building a castle togehter is that so un-foretold, un-foreseen.
Not caring if it is right or wrong, for there is only one judge and in time we will see.

But only if you let go and want and we live out the dream.

I know this is only imaginary; looking for forever. as it is just pieces of me.

1999-I OFTEN WONDER(PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

I often wonder what is to become of me?
Never knowing what each day will bring.
Never really planning just how it should really be;
What will ever come of me?

Life has been so strange.
Just thinking of all that has come to pass or changed.

Thinking of my youthfulness.
Will it always allow me to remain ambitious?

Happy to be alone, with such great pleasure and peace of mind.
Hating everday of my single life, more then most of the time.

Too many lessons learned.
Too many tourches burned.
What is it that will fill the empty desire I yearn?

No longer afraid to make it on my own.
Establishes at which point I have grown.

Always writing about feelings.
Or dwelled on bad dealings.

Makes me appreciate,
The great things in life I have over come to accumulate.

Never to forget, just how my life started.
Who have I become?

From all this hard work, to survive with the rest of the open minded;
Yet broken hearted.

Always thinking life was un-fair.
Always trying to believe I would never again let go and care.

How often too! I become elated, when I find an old memory, a friend, or someone I respect dearly whom is related.

How often I cry, from the sight of others pain.
How often do I try, to help those in need trying to wash away their troubles.
Like some thunderous hard rain.

Some say I should stop, be more selfish, why bother.
Because you are only driving yourself insane!

I often wonder what is to become of me?
Never knowing what each day will bring?
Never really planning just how it should really be?

What will ever come of me?


See who I am not to be treated as a laid out plain.
For I am 100% women; with abilities beyond belief.

Moreover, filled with the love for beauty in all God's creatures.
Yet special needs and desires for a Godly man.

What will ever come of me?
As I have no more best, laid plans.

1999-ETERNITY(PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

Time slowly creeping up on me.
Making me think all the harder.

Often I sometimes wonder.
Would it be worth any soul to barter?

My life style so unique; Yet so the same.
The daily things of life; leave me feeling at times I will go insane.

I started out so rough and hard.
Lord knows in the beginning; I did not choose that card.

Yet, here I am so alone.
Even when I have my family, my children, my home.

I want someone special, creative, dedicated.
I want someone, I can trust for anything, anytime.
Not to later, only be somehow degraded.

My female tendencies need someone handsome, someone good, someone loving and strong.
My history tells me no way will it ever happen; just stay alone.

What shall I do with the emotions I hide?
I have no more tears to cry; but only great pride.

For I have overcome so many obstacles along this ride.
This endless empty feeling will awlays be to me an eternity in time.

1999-NEVER TELL(PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

Day after day, time after time.
Looking at your picture makes me wish you were once mine.

Remembering those days, from way back when.
Remembering how I feel now, is the same from then.

Why we never became a couple. Who will ever know?
But friends of the heart always, it was never a show.

Through relationships, those have gone a wry.
All the way to friends or relatives whom have left us behind.

We are still gald to be in touch, even after all this time.

Thrills and chills run up and down my spine.
When I see you as a man who is so devine.

What could I ever be thinking here?
I ask and wonder why?

For rumor's have it you always loved those barbie doll types.
Those younger then I. Something's I just will never be.

So, why even think about what tings could be.
I will only finish my life with my dreams;
Imagining is much safer, even if the cowards' way for me.

1999 - TIMELESS MILES (PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

So far away, yet so close at heart.
A friendship when thought of; feels as though there was never a day apart.

Always so cool, comfortable easy going open in every way.
Dwelling on this is how it has always been, even back in the day.

Years have come to past.
Romances that never last

Ups and downs sent us in whirlwinds.
Some control some as if were puppets or someone else's clown.

Survivors we are.
No matter how easy or hard.

Overcoming it all, no matter how tough the part.
Always aware to survive we must toughen our heart.

Always hiding our needs and wants.
Painting a picture; so well like some beautiful piece of art.

So now we cross path's again.
Does it end here, or should we question.
Where is it to start?

AlwaysMeKelly 3-1999

1999-MONOGAMY(PrayersThoughts_PiecesofMe_AlwaysMeKelly)

Appetizingly desirable, I see you before me.
Hungering for the over due, over needed, hidden pleasure, of a deep passionate kiss.
So long awaited for, hoping someday it will always be.

Tantalizing images of foreplay; sparkle in my mind.
The aggressive smooth movements, feeding of my once hidden desires.
So much alike, when in motions there is no questions of any kind.

For as I melt away, you've taken control.
Leading me to places so un-foretold.

Each taste of your skin sends chills so far within.
Lusting for more, each time reminds me.
It is only you; I could ever adore.

Touching, tasting, exploring over time.
What are not only your fantasies, but also mine.
Never getting tired, or bored.
No matter what the outcome would find.

Always to show.
What did work now will make the next oh so ever divine.

Hours on end, my companion, my lover, my friend.
My desires are strong.
My will is to the end.

Taking; every drop, of energy flowing.
Nevertheless, passionately yet expressly slow.
Feeling each movement; savoring every taste.
Loving as each time was our first.
Holding memories, before we ever go.
Of those over whelming desires.
Fueling the hearts burning on fire.

Unity; just one when we wed; we become.
Nothing will ever make that come un-done.
