To all the boys I've loved before

For all the boys I've loved before
Come take your rubbish from my floor
I'm glad you came along
Now I can write this song
To all the boys I've loved before......

To all the boys I've loved before
Don't hear your snoring anymore
Your socks and curled up towl
Don't leave that aweful smell
To all the boys I've loved before......

To all the boys I've loved before
The toilet seat is down once more
How did we get along
Your cigars were way too strong
To all the boys I've loved before.......

Rain washed day - By Barbara Anderson

No more grey
The rain has washed away
A misty haze

A crystal blue sky
The sun up high
The weekend's nigh

Can't wait to get home
A time to go slow
Before a week of the exciting unknown

The summer's eve

The crickets tweet as daylight fades
The cheerful noise of children's play
The smell of braai's waft through way
A perfect end to a summer's day

The Haddidah's call as they fly away
My kitty turns and runs to play
The street lights shine to show the way
To venture home or go and catch the game

The quiet eve brings rest and peace
It is now that work does cease
The air plane flies over high
The time is near for hello or goodbye

The pose by Barbara Anderson

He looks up high, he looks down low
All to escape the gaze of the desired pose
The lens he fears is comming near
To capture an aloof furry kitty-bear

He little knows how much that pose
Will bring joy to those
Who behold this cute
And funny shoot

Things I'm learning about life

So often in life we think we know what other people want from us in relationships, be they parent / child, husband / wife, friends, and we often make decisions that we think are in their best interest, only to find out that we haven't actually taken the time to stop and ask that person what they really do need from us in that situation. I've learned now that we need to always ensure that we keep the lines of dialogue open.

We also have to learn to give what we want to receive in our relationships. If you want love, affection, attention, understanding, the be bold and give it first. It allows others a chance to open up and give us what we need in return. I suppose it is a case of lead by example.

All the things I enjoy about being single

• That first fart as you climb out of bed
• Hogging the bath or shower when ever it suits me
• Running round naked (with the curtains closed of course)
• Howling at the moon on my way to bed
• That tasty burp after a coke or beer
• And then there's the burping contests you have with yourself.... you always win
• Eating till you pop and undoing your zip
• Watching my favourite DVD's ad nausium
• Having all the animals sleep in my bed
• Playing on my laptop all night long
• Piling up dishes till I'm down to my last plate.... and then buying take aways
• Spending the day in your PJ's without being sick
• Those crazy sad howling songs you sing to yourself when you are feeling all alone
• Not having to shave every Friday
• You can always win an argument...with yourself
• Eating Pronutro for dinner when you're too lazy to cook

If God had "Sick Days" and needed to take time off work

If God had Sick Leave and needed to take “time off for stress”,  then a “conversation with God” - might go something like this ~

From Ronwyn:   Dearest God:   “Please help I need some assistance managing my work load and stress today.  I’m kaput and feel sick to my stomach.

From God:  “Hi Ronwyn,.  Need to take a rain check on this one.  Am having a Benylin day and unfortunately some of the Angels are on strike over the Juju Malema Trial.  Yes, it seems that those angels who have been hard at work answering Julius’s prayers are “de Moer in” over the guilty verdict.    

To make matters worse, old Saint Paul wants overtime for managing the Pearly Gates at night now and yesterday Satan managed to get an entire troop of demons smuggled into the Garden of Eden.   

With the demons running amock in the Gardens,  my remaining flock of Angels have also gone on strike since those were the ones answering prayers on behalf of our “gun shy Boer’s” out there and they’ve now taken it upon themselves to seek out greener pastures since rumour has it that pasture-lands are going to be up for grabs pretty soon.      

As if this was not enough,    the Holy Spirit went off suddenly on sabbatical (I’m sure he received a tipoff from the Omnipitent forum) and

frankly Three in One is just too much for me to handle today. 

Hang in there, say your Hail Mary’s and call me tomorrow.

Fond regards, GOD.

11 Things about Life - By Bill Gates **Profound and well worth reading**

Rule 1 : Life is not fair - get used to it!
Rule 2 : The world doesn't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.
Rule 3 : You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you EARN both.
Rule 4 : If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss
Rule 5 : Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping: They called it opportunity.
Rule 6 : If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them.
Rule 7 : Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were: So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own room..
Rule 8 : Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life HAS NOT. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades. and they'll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the right answer. *This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.
Rule 9 : Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. *Do that on your own time.
Rule 10 : Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.
Rule 11 : Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one...

Buds - by Barbara Anderson

Before the rains
The buds appear
Telling me
That spring is near

How do trees know
The time has come
To spring forth life
Before the sun

I know not how
I know not where
God whispers life
Into their ear

THREE UNUSUAL BROTHERS

They make an unlikely trio, but Baloo the bear, Leo the lion, and Shere Khan the tiger have forged an unusually strong bond.

 Considering that they would be mortal enemies if they ever were to meet in the wild, it is stunning to see their unique and genuine friendship in these intimate pictures.  Rescued eight years ago during a police drug raid in  Atlanta ,  Georgia , the three friends were only cubs at the time at barely two months old.
                                 
 They had been kept as status symbol pets by the drug barons.

 Delivered to the Noah's Ark Animal Rescue Centre in  Locust Grove ,  Georgia , the decision was made to keep the youngsters together, because of their budding rapport.
 
 'We could have separated them, but since they came as a kind of family, the zoo decided to keep them together,' said Diane Smith, assistant director of Noah's  Ark.    
 
 'To our knowledge, this is the only place where you'll find this combination of animals together.'
 
 Living with the zoo's founders for the past eight years, Shere Khan, Baloo and Leo have now moved to a purpose-built habitat where the  US  public can now witness first hand their touching relationships.

                                 

 'We didn't have the money to move them at first,' said Diane .

 'Now their habitat is sorted and they have been moved away from the children's zoo areas where the public couldn't really get a good look.

 'It is possible to see Baloo, who is a 1000lb bear, Shere Khan, a 350lb tiger and Leo, who is also 350lbs, messing around like brothers.

 'They are totally oblivious to the fact that in any other circumstance they would not be friends.'

 Handled by Charles and Jama Hedgecoth, the zoo's owners and founders, the three friendly giants appear to have no comprehension of their animal differences.

 'Baloo and Shere Khan are very close,' says Diane .

 'That is because they rise early, and as Leo is a lion, he likes to spend most of the day sleeping.

 'It is wonderful and magical to see a giant American Black Bear put his arm around a  Bengal  and then to see the tiger nuzzle up to the bear like a domestic cat.

 'When Leo wakes up the three of them mess around for most of the day before they settle down to some food.'

                                            


 Surprisingly for three apex predators with the power to kill with a single bite or swipe of their paw, they are very relaxed around each other.

 'They eat, sleep and play together,' said Jama.

 'As they treat each other as siblings they will lie on top of each other for heat and simply for affection.

 'At the moment they are getting used to their new habitat.

 'Shere Khan is being quite reticent about the move, but Baloo, the bear, is very good at leading him on and making him feel comfortable and safe.'

 Explaining that the three 'brothers' have always seemed to share a unique bond, Charles said: 'Noah's  Ark  is their home and they could not possibly be separated from each other.

 'You just have to remember who you're dealing with when you are with them, though.  'It's when you forget that these fellows are wild animals that you get yourself in trouble.'

 The trio's new habitat had to be constructed carefully, in order to accommodate its occupants.

 Jama said: 'The clubhouse had to be very sturdy for the guys, because they all sleep in it together,'

 She added: 'We had to include a creek, because the tiger and the bear both like to be in water.'

 

 

 

                                  

Why men should wait in the car

          *After I retired, my wife insisted that I accompany her on
           her trips to Woolworths. Unfortunately, like most men, I found
           shopping boring and preferred to get in and get out. Equally
           unfortunate, my wife is like most women - she loves to
           browse. Yesterday my dear wife received the following letter
           from the local Woolworths.

           Dear Mrs Jacobs,

           Over the past six months, your husband has caused quite a
           commotion in our store. We cannot tolerate this behaviour and
           have been forced to ban both of you from the store. Our
           complaints against your husband, Mr Samuel, are listed
           below and are documented by our video surveillance cameras.

           **1. **June 15**:**Took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put
           them in other people's carts when they weren't looking.

           **2. **July 2**:**Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to
           go off at 5-minute intervals.

           **3. **July 7**:**He made a trail of tomato juice on the
           floor leading to the women's restroom..

           **4. **July 19**:**Walked up to an employee and told her in
           an official voice, 'Code 3 in Housewares. Get on it right
           away'. This caused the employee to leave her assigned
           station and receive a reprimand from her Supervisor that in
           turn resulted with a union grievance, causing management to
           lose time and costing the company money.

           5. August**4:**Went to the Service Desk and tried to put a
           box of SMARTIES on lay-buy.

           6. August 14**:**Moved a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a
           carpeted area.

           7. August 15**:**Set up a tent in the camping department and
           told the children shoppers he'd invite them in if they would
           bring pillows and blankets from the bedding department to
           which twenty children obliged.

           8. August 23**:**When a clerk asked if they could help him
           he began crying and screamed, 'Why can't you people just
           leave me alone?' Paramedics were called.

           **9. September 4:**Looked right into the security camera and
           used it as a mirror while he picked his nose.

           **10. September 10:**While handling knifes in the kitchen
           department, he asked the clerk where the antidepressants were.

           **11. October 3:**Darted around the store suspiciously while
           loudly humming the ' Mission Impossible' theme.

           **12. October 6:**In the auto department, he practiced his
           'Madonna look' by using different sizes of funnels.

           **13. October 18:**Hid in a clothing rack and when people
           browsed through, yelled 'PICK ME! PICK ME!'

           **14. October 21:**When an announcement came over the loud
           speaker, he assumed a foetal position and screamed 'OH NO!
           IT'S THOSE VOICES AGAIN!'*

           **And last, but not least:*

           **15. October 23:**Went into a fitting room, shut the door,
           waited awhile, then yelled very loudly, 'Hey! There's no
           toilet paper in here.' One of the clerks passed out.*

Niburu Phenomenon

Google Niburu and you'll find a whole bunch of dooms day sites predicting
the end of the world as we know it. So I thought I would share my
thoughts on this interesting issue.

There are a few You-tube Video's that I watched. The first makes no clear
statements as to what can and will happen but rather gives vague references.
Most points of reference appear to be pointing to occult symbols which are
difficult to pick up unless you have researched witchcraft and occult
practices in detail.  One known fact regarding occult is that Satan
has no power to create therefore he uses counterfeits of the truth to
confuse.  He does not creep into our consciousness with clear attacks
but subverts the truth and tries to present his truth as an "alternate
reality".  The methods he has used with mankind since Adam and Eve
have not changed but simply changed.  Second video – NASA scientist
discounts this.  Anything this big would have been spotted by now.
Our telescopes are very large and any objects big enough to cause any
destruction would have been picked up by now.

Predictions on the end of the world – No known man has yet been
accurately predicted the day or the hour of the end of the world.  We
wouldn't be here if that were the case.  Matthew 24 v 36, says that no
being in heaven except head of the Trinity "God the father" knows the
end of time as we know it.  The fact that we are on the verge of a
major shift in life as we know it is undisputed. Romans 8 v 22 tells
us that the whole of creation groans and labours.  With "childbirth"
comes forth new life therefore "new things" are to be expected.  One
thing we must remember is that not all written words speak truth.
This is the crisis we have today.  Hundreds of years before knowledge
was kept for an elite few, today you can acquire knowledge about any
subject anywhere, any time, and through thousands of options.  The
Mayan reference to an improved humanity are most likely correct in
it's own form.  Humans had to band together to take actions to prevent
the increase in the whole of the ozone layer.  I believe we will do it
again to harness the power of the sun for electricity in a new way and
to take measure to stop or halt the effects of climate change.  We
have no guarantee though that climate change will not continue.  The
damage we have caused as humanity may be irreversible.  One thing for
sure our planet has survived major climate changes in the past and it
will do so again, it is designed to violently protect itself.  The
contradictory facts regarding the end of the Mayan calendar as 2011
and 2012 respectively show that there is no "absolute" method of
interpreting these writings.  We may hear a story in 2022 that this is
now the "correct" date.  Shown in an amusing article in 2003 the
correct date could be 2880.

What I've learnt – There is so much information today about end time
theology (escatology). Some have have suggested that the possible
"Empire of the Anti-Christ" could have been a past event, happening
within the scope of biblical time, hence the "veiled" references.
Looking at scripture now it is clear to me that there is no "Anti-Christ"
as Christ himself said that any man that is against him or his teachings is
indeed "Anti-Christ" and he makes reference saying many will come being
Anti-Christ, i.e. many will come to discount his teachings.  What was also
made clear is that we live in a "time between times".  Being a time between
the 1st and 2nd coming of Christ.

What is important?
That we have a personal relationship with Christ, knowing him as our
personal Lord and saviour.  If we have this relationship with Christ,
we know that heaven is our eternal home and how we get there is
irrelevant.
Jesus will return to a Glorious bride – that we should live our lives
to honour him and reflect his image in the earth.
That God desires or worship and praise, through this he is glorified.
That no matter what form the end of our world comes in, God is in control.

The challenge then being, do you have a relationship with the one and
only God who controls time?

Zuma is my shepherd

Zuma is my shepherd
I shall not work
He maketh me to lie down on the park benches
He leadeth me beside the still factories
He restoreth my faith in the conservative party
He guideth me in the path of unemployment
Yay though I walk through the valley of the soup kitchen
I shall be hungry
For I fear they are evil against me
They have anointed my income with tax
My expenses runneth over my salary
Surely poverty and hard living shall follow me
all the days of the labour administration

Tear drops

Tear drops fall
Lost grief swells
A heart remembers
The pain of abandonment

Sadness reigns
Is there and end
Will chances come
To make a mense

Moral Of The Porcupine

Fable of the porcupine 

It was the coldest winter ever.  Many animals died because of the cold. The porcupines, realizing the situation, decided to group together to keep warm.  This way they covered and protected themselves; but the quills of each one wounded their closest companions. 
 
After a while, they decided to distance themselves one from the other and they began to die, alone  and frozen. So they had to make a choice: either accept the quills of their companions or disappear from the Earth. Wisely, they decided to go back to being together.  They learned to live with the little wounds caused by the close relationship with their companions in order to receive the heat that came from the others. This way they were able to survive.

The best relationship is not the one that brings together perfect people, but when each individual learns to live with the imperfections of others and can admire the other person's good qualities.
 
The moral of the story is:  Just learn to live with the Pricks in your life!

An eclipsed moon

An eclipsed moon
The darkened night
My soul finds rest
In his sight

A change it brings
God's healing touch
On his wings

There's more to life
Than meets the eye
Let's draw near to God
His power is nigh

Things to learn from your pet

Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride.
Allow the experience of fresh air & the wind in your face to be pure ecstasy.
When loved ones come home, always run to greet them.
When it's in your best interests, always practice obedience.
Let others know when they've invaded your territory.
Take naps and always stretch before rising.
Run, romp and play daily.
Eat with gusto and enthusiasm.
Be loyal.
Never pretend to be something you are not.
If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.
When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by and nuzzle
them gently.
Delight in the simple joy of long walks.
Thrive on attention and let people touch you.
Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.
On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree.
When you are happy, dance around and wag your entire body.
Now matter how often you are criticized, don't buy into the guilt
thing and pout.
Run right back and make friends.

How Ferrari can make their come back

Due to poor performance, the Ferrari formula 1 team recently fired
their whole pit crew to employ a few you guys from Soweto. This
sudden reaction was due to a documentary showing how young Sowetans
could take a car's tyres off within 6 seconds., without any fancy
equipment. Ferrari soon regretted their decision however. The young
men not only changed the tyres in 6 seconds but 12 seconds later the
car had been re-sprayed and sold to the MaClaren team.

Since they no longer had a formula one car to race, Ferrari still
eager to innovate, decided to race a Sowetan minibus complete with an
experienced (yet unlicenced) driver and fare collector, in the Grand
prix. Of course they easily won the championship, since the minibus
weaved its way through the start grid, set off before the lights
changed and didn't bother to change the tyres when they wore out. On
the way to the victory, the new Ama-Ferrari team also managed to
hijack several competitors cars, and pick up 35 passengers at some
notoriously dangerous spots, including blind rises and in the chicane.

Go Ferrari!

The moral of the Story...

An old man, a boy & a donkey were going to town.
The boy rode on the donkey & the old man walked.
As they went along they passed some people
Who remarked it was a shame the old man
Was walking and the boy was riding.

The man and boy thought maybe the critics were right,
So they changed positions.

Then, later, they passed some people who remarked,
'What a shame, he makes that little boy walk.'

So they then decided they'd both walk!
Soon they passed some more people who thought
They were stupid to walk when they had a
Decent donkey to ride.
So, they both rode the donkey.

Now they passed some people
Who shamed them by saying how awful to
Put such a load on a poor donkey.
The boy and man figured they were probably right,
So they decide to carry the donkey.  

As they crossed the bridge,
They lost their grip on the animal
And he fell into the river and drowned.

The moral of the story?
If you try to please everyone,
You might as well...
Kiss your ass goodbye!

The birth the life the risen Lord

His birth his life
He came to share
Yet some would say

He wasn't there

How can we know
The anguish of
A forsaken Lord
Hanging on that cross

Can we ignore
The price he paid
As his life
On Calvary laid

It wasn't over
The best to come
The risen Lord
Forever won!

A Poem for couples - by Barbara Anderson

Enjoy the good times

Stand together through the bad times

Gives hugs and kisses freely

At all times

Set God as your true North

And the Holy Spirit as your compass

That way you’ll never get lost

Or wonder what dreams have passed

May your love be the wind

That lifts your sails and sets you free

Free from the past

Living together in joy at last

May love be the fire

That stirs your hearts desire

And may God grant you peace

So that your connection will never cease

Sipho's letter to Truworths

LETTER TO TRUWORTHS IN JOHANNESBURG
Dear Sir/Madam
I acknowledge receipt of your letter dated 7 July 2008 in which for the 3rd time, you request that I pay the monies owed to you. I first want you to know that by no means do I dispute my debt and I intend to pay as soon as possible. However I would like to bring to your attention that you are not my only creditor. I have many more creditors, quite as honorable and important as you, and whom I wish to pay too. That is why, each month, I throw all the names of my creditors into a hat and draw one randomly. The one drawn is paid immediately. I hope that yours will come out shortly.
Sincerely Yours,
Sipho
PS: I regret to inform you that given the harsh and threatening tone of your last letter, you will not be taking part in the next three draws.

The night is far spent

The most beautiful piece of biblical writing ever: Romans 13v11-14

And do this, knowing the time, that now is high time to awake out of our sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed.

The night is far spent, the day is at hand. Therefore let us cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light.

Let us walk properly as in the day, not in revelry and drunkenness, not in lewdness and lust, not in strife and envy.

But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts.

Eagle

The Eagle has the longest lifespan among birds

It can live up to 70 years

To reach this age it must make a hard decision

In its 40’s, it’s long and flexible talons

Can no longer grab prey which serves as food

Its long and sharp beak becomes bent

Its old age and heavy wings

Due to their thick feathers

Becomes stuck to its chest

Making it difficult to fly

The eagle is left with only two options:

Die Or go through a process of change lasting 150 days

The process requires that the eagle flies to a mountain top

And sits on its nest

There the eagle knocks its beak against the rock

Until it plucks it out

After plucking it out the eagle will wait

For a new beak to grow back

Then it will pluck out its talons

When the new talons grow back

The eagle starts plucking its old age feathers

After five months the eagle take its famous flight of rebirth

And lives for 30 more years

Isaiah 40:31

But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength

They shall mount up with wings of eagles

They shall run and not be weary

They shall walk and not faint

Perfect partner

The perfect partner

Is the one who doesn’t expect

Their partner to be perfect

My Space by Barbara Anderson

What a joy to have a space where I can let my hair down
To let my heart frown or vent and calm down

What a joy to know his peace and just be
To be free to be me with no one telling me how to be

What a joy to be my own person
To know his strength and never question
That he truly has a plan for me
And I can release all my cares to him and be free

Faults

Women have many faults

Men only have two

Everything they say

Everything they do

Gem and butternut delight

Steam gem and butternut
Hollow out gem
Add teaspoon of margerine
Drisle sugar
Dice butternut and fill hollow cavity
Add spoonful of tomatoe and onion(tinned)
Drisle more sugar
Heat and enjoy

He fights for me

He fights for me because he knows he should
He fights for me because to him it is good
He must protect his master against all enemies

This pint sized bundle of fur
Knows nothing but instinct
How could he know
That I'm more than twice his size
When all he can see is the love in my eyes

Pre-emptive Prayer Answering

^{Ge 24:12} Then he prayed, "O LORD, God of my master Abraham, give me success today, and show kindness to my master Abraham. 

^{Ge 24:13} See, I am standing beside this spring, and the daughters of the townspeople are coming out to draw water. 

^{Ge 24:14} May it be that when I say to a girl, 'Please let down your jar that I may have a drink,' and she says, 'Drink, and I'll water your camels too'—let her be the one you have chosen for your servant Isaac. By this I will know that you have shown kindness to my master."

^{Ge 24:15} Before he had finished praying, Rebekah came out with her jar on her shoulder.

In these verses Abraham's servant thinks his prayers are answered immediately, however God actually answered his prayer long before he even prayed it in order for Rebekah to appear as he was praying. How cool is that :)

Determination - by Barbara Anderson

A determined kitty
Sits next to mommy while she studies in bed
A determined kitty
Nudges the blankets with his tiny little head
A determined kitty
Makes mommy move the laptop from the spot he desires.... Until
A determined kitty replaces the laptop with his tiny little head

Praise on a moonlit night by Barbara Anderson

Moonlit night
The stars so bright
Sing their resounding song of praise

Why is it that we cannot see
How all of nature is made to sing his praise
And we are meant to join in the chorus
With one loud voice
For God is worthy and deserves it all

Will you join in?
Will you sing?
Will you rejoice and give God praise?

Nature's voice by Barbara Anderson

The rooster crows
The birds are singing
And in my ears
His voice is ringing

Words of praise
Fill my heart
For loving God
Is a unique art

Sounds of life
Fill the air
God's creation shouts
With majestic flair

My Mangled Mess by Barbara Anderson

My shoulders are a mangled mess
To being in pain I do confess
How do I clear my tangled neck
Oh I am a tensed up wreck

Of being in pain
I do complain
I hope my masuse
Can be of use
