Take me away, back to my first love.
Take me far away to the promised land.
Take me away, across the seven seas, back to my home that I have left behind!

Take me away, to a place where my body feels no pain.
Take me to a place where I carry no number or name.
Take me to the land  where I will feel free from my worries and chains!

Take me away, to a new magnitude of dreams.
Take me away, to a place where ideas radiate.
Take me away, to a place where soft hearts blossom!

Take me away, high in the sky above the clouds.
Take me away, make me a neighbor to the beautiful night stars.
Take me to a place where I can sip an eternal drink of bliss.
Take me away, to a place where I can hide from my shadow until I find my way,
Take me away, from myself, so I can find my lost soul
Take me away, I long to go far away!

Color my world beautiful.
Color it with an orange and yellow sun sinking, into the restless ocean waves.
Paint over it with the rainbows across the sky,
Color it with dark blues and grays of summer nights,
And with the glow of the moon from behind the clouds.
Paint my world with your heavenly smile,
Add a touch of your good wishes,
Let us hear the soft murmur of your prayers.

Color it with joy and sweet innocence of young children,
Add a dash of youthful inspiration, and mix in some ambition.
Color it with the wisdom and accomplishments of the elders!

Color my deeds with kindness.
Color my mind with ideas and creativity.
Color my soul with humility and fill it with hope and prayer.
Color my heart with love and affection for all humanity.
Color my life with a beautiful family and true friends!

Color my world with hope, optimism, and a new promise
To touch people's lives and help ease their pain.
Color my thoughts, my heart, and my deeds with
The eternal prayer of being a servant for humanity.
Color it with bright and eternal colors.
Color it beautiful !

My kingdom is where extraordinary ideas dwell and kindness blossoms.
It is where laughter blooms and poetry rules.
It is where the beauty of nature, minds, and souls unite,
And together they become one, like one song, one prayer!

It is where acts of blessings glow,
Faces radiate with wholehearted smiles,
Resounding cries of souls are heard,
Beautiful hearts are welcomed,
Dreams slumber on the sun’s lap,
And minds are always thinking about the next innovative idea!

My Kingdom is my refuge and my fortress when life gets tough!
It is my happy song and my eternal dream!

Break down the barrier, break down the wall;
So I can see your smiling face, your white teeth and all!

Break down the barrier, break down the wall;
Let your inner beauty shine through, so with kindness you can stand up tall!

Break down the barrier, break down the wall;
So you can give me a helping hand and answer the helpless call!  

Break down the barrier, break down the wall;
So you can share with the world the magic of your beautiful brain ball!

Break down the barrier, break down the wall;
So together we can enjoy the songs of melodious birds, and experience the great outdoors!
Admire nature for its openness. No barrier, no wall!

After gazing at my mother’s serene face,
I asked her about the secret of prayer.
She glanced up at me, and a look of sheer joy appeared on her face as she Began to answer.

“My dear son,
Prayer is the gateway to an assured heart.
It is the bridge to reaching deep into your soul, and the key to eternal Happiness.
You see son,
Prayer is the key of balance in this unsteady life.
It is a guaranteed hope no matter how low you are.
It is about giving of yourself without being asked.
It is the promise to bless one life at a time.
It is giving thanks for your blessings.
Every prayer is a renewed pledge to touch one soul at a time.
It is for the times you're contemplating the beauty that is nature, and all of it’s creations.
It is a beacon of kindness and compassion.
It is the priceless gift of sending good thoughts and wishes to those Around you;
The ability to bring happiness to another soul.
It is a warm greeting.
It is planting a tree of hope and inspiration deep in the hearts of lost souls.
It is shedding tears of remorse in the middle of the night when the moon is hidden deep behind the clouds.
Prayer is about living, practicing, and loudly singing life’s happy song.
It is about radiating with so much hope and having it reach those Around you.
Prayer is the instrument which you play daily in this life.”

I would like another chance,
A chance to bid a proper goodbye to my loved ones,
So I can bury their sweet memories; the memories that have been weighing on me
So heavily, high up between the white clouds!
I want a chance to share their stories with the blue birds;
I want to send my longing tears into the clouds.
I pray that the midnight rain will wash away this aching pain!
