Because Jesus lived I …
Am forgiven
Have hope
Can face tomorrow
Am made new
Can love freely
Have peace in my heart
Am not afraid
Can trust god’s plan
Am alive in Christ
Have a future
Am set free
Have strength to carry on
Know I am loved
Am a child of god
Have a purpose
Can forgive others
Am no longer defined by my past
Belong
Can rejoice
Can walk in freedom
Am healed
Can live without shame
Can face my fears
Can live with joy
Am being transformed

I am me
There is no other like me
Why would there be
I sometimes cry
I sometimes laugh
I sometimes can be loveable
I sometimes can be caring
I m sometimes  even sleepy
At some point can be cranky
I’m sometimes not a morning person
Oh who I’m kidding
I’m not a morning person
I have diabetes anxiety and depression
I’m a mother , wife , daughter , aunt and a best friend
I have haters jealousy and greed
I love pink , purple and blue
I love summer and sometimes spring
I hate winter and even fall
I love horror , comedy ,  mystery and Jesus too
With all of this makes me BEAUTIFUL INSIDE AND OUT
I am me

The Christmas poem

As love ones gather near and far
Wishing each other a merry Christmas and happy new year
The ones in heaven wishing they were here
You hear them whispering in the wind
You see them in your dreams
You tell them I wish heaven would let you visit this time of year
You see thier footsteps in the snow
You see the red cardinal
You may even see a feather here or there
Just knowing they are there
Don’t be sad this time of year
See people who are still here
Homeless person may be cold
they even be hungry
Feeling that they are forgotten
Don’t feel forgotten people still care
Don’t be sad this time of year
Words only mean what you hold so dear
So try to spread  a little Christmas cheers
Merry Christmas to all and happy new year

Poetry
Is something that you feel
Is something that you write
Is something that is wonderful
Is something that is close to your heart
Is something that is special
Is something to hide or shine
Is someone who can love
Is someone who can share
Is someone who can care
Is someone who can tell a short story
Is someone who can explain say without saying words
Is something I love to do
Is something that comes easy when in the mood words  flow just like the wind
Some make sense and some don’t
Poetry

Diabetes
Type 1 and 2
Feeling hungry
Feeling thirsty
Diabetes
Checking sugars
Sleeping
Diabetes
Comes with different emotions
Depression
Anxiety
Diabetes
High and lows
It’s a life long struggle
Diabetes
Doesn’t define who you are
There’s no cure maybe one day
Diabetes
Is what I have
And I say this I wish I didn’t
I’ll never be the same
Diabetes
