Just some thoughts...

Every day, as I write Poetiquejustis, I pray it will be a blessing to someone.
Today, I hope it is you.

Now We Know

 

Man can learn nothing except by going 
from the known to the unknown
Claude Bernard
What is holding you back?

are you looking for a workaround
or a new road to success
Everyone gets off track sometime
                                             But that does not mean you can't still make progress
You can make excuses, or you can make progress
But you cannot do both
That's what I've learned
And that's poetiquejustis
                         Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is kept safe.

You May Have A Word

 

Words are but the signs of ideas.
Samuel Johnson


Ideas live behind the words

Like the queen behind the castle wall


Words herald her approach

But can never really express her majesty 
The grandeur
The mystery
Of what has been brought into the world-
a new idea
and that's poetiquejustis
Be you transformed by the renewing of your mind
Romans 12:2

Enough Said

 

The lure of quantity is the most dangerous of all
Simone Weil
Enough
Too much
Enough
Too Much
Enough
Never enough
And that's poetiquejustis 
So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. 
Just as I have loved you, you should love each other
John 13:34

The Currency of Attention

 

Let us not look back in anger
nor forward in fear
but around us in awareness
James Thurber



 It is not what you left behind
Or even what is ahead
It is who is beside you
It is the passion within you
That needs your attention.
Whatever the price
Pay attention
The cost is too high if you do not 
and the dividends are great if you do
 
and that's poetiquejustis


I will stand at my watch and station my myself on the ramparts
Habakkuk 2:1

Get It Right

 

I had the right to remain silent... but I didn't have the ability.
Ron White
The next time someone says something mean to you
You have the right to remain silent
When someone is rude to you
Yo have the right to remain silent
You have the right to be kind to them in return
You have the right to be patient and gentle
You have the right to be different!
Know your rights!
and that's poetiquejustis
A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.
Proverbs 15:1

Just What We Do

 

Don't let the things you can't do
get in the way of the things you can do.
John Wooden


There are things we know we must do


to get to where we want to go

and along the way, we find things we can't do
that still need to be done
No problem
Because we know that If we want to get there badly enough 

 We will just find another way
Because that is what we do
and that's poetiquejustis 

With God all things are possible.
Matthew 19:26

Bluster

 

Gentleness can only be expected from the strong.
Leo Buscaglia


Bullies.....


Bluster....

 and spread pain


But those who are strong


 can whisper like the wind

and be heard 


spreading peace

That is how you know who is weak
and who is strong

and that's poetiquejustis
A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.
Proverbs 15:1
