Midnight Motivations and Musings 86

When society turns away it’s eye’s, many unfortunate souls fall through the cracks of life’s pavement.
Sometimes, their situation may not be due to their fault, but as a result of poor governance, social strata, and displacement.
Indeed, some may have taken the wrong turn and don’t have the inner strength to pull out of the miry bog they’ve found themselves in.
Let’s not be hasty in judgement and assumption that all who are down and out, are lazy or doing drugs. That’s being misinformed. I know places where some humans are so poor that they can barely afford a meal a day, talkless of doing drugs.
The essence of communities is so that we can break bread together.
One of my greatest aspirations is to have a foundation positively geared to assist those who don’t have food to eat. Have you ever seen a smile on that hungry face who least expected that piece of sandwich? It’s beautiful.
I may not be able to change the World single-handedly, but together, we can do more if we are willing.

Expose my heart
that I may understand your words
through every conscious,
awakened pore of each moment.

*an excerpt from my poem*
Accidental…Friday fiction in five sentences.
Her parallel parking had never been good even at it’s best, but Susie loves her cute car and would never accept that she sucked at driving.
Struggling to squeeze into the little space, the scrunching sound of metal bumping into the other drew her attention to yet another mishap.
She nimbly got out to take a look, the annoyed man in the truck, unfolded his large self and stepped out to blister her ears.
Accepting her profuse apologies, he admired her smallness and attractive looks, while they settled their differences over a cup of coffee.
Five years later, Brad prefers to drive his Susie and their three young babies. She still sucks at parking.

P.S. inspired by the lady whom I saw yesterday, doing a rigmarole as she tried to park 😉

VOTE NOW! Annual Bloggers Bash Awards NOW OPEN
Seriously!! You can tap me with a feather and I’ll probably fall over.
I followed the trail of this post from Ritu’s to go and do my blogger duty and vote like a good citizen of blogland.
I went through each section voting one after the other, until, yours truly got to a place that had a name called Jacqueline. I like knowing the Jacqueline’s around me, so I took a peek by clicking the name and saw myself staring at myself.
Oh wow! I feel so honoured and humbled to be nominated for the Annual Bloggers Bash Awards.It’s open now! Please go and cast your votes 😉
This is it. The waiting is finally over.
The Bloggers Bash Awards are now open for voting.
We had a HUGE number of nominations, over 350, so thank you to everyone who took the time to nominate.
Voting Closes June 9th at 12pm. The winners will be announced on June 11th at the Bash. If you can’t make it then a winners post will go live at 5:15pm on June 11th.
Choose carefully, you can only vote ONCE per category. There are 10 awards, (so it’s a long post) make sure you vote in them all.
Good luck to all the nominees.
Disclaimer: The committee has done their best to coordinate the nominations and to ensure, where possible, we gave nominees a choice of which category they wanted to be in. Due to time constraints and limited resources this may not have always been possible.

Good Stuff…Every day beautiful people # 48
“I love books. I love that moment when you open one and sink into it, you can escape from the World, into a story that’s way more interesting than yours will ever be.” Elizabet Scott
“Reading gives us someplace to go when we have to stay where we are.” Unknown
That book she’s reading must be some good stuff 🙂
There are books that are such compulsive reads that when you sink your teeth into them, you are lost in them and you keep going until it’s finished.
Below is my first just published Poetry Book “Out of the silent breath” which is available on Amazon and Smashwords.
When you buy my book, you support me in an invaluable manner.
I hear you in my thoughts…
Your words of wisdom,
of love and encouragement…
They are etched upon my soul.
They keep me warm.
