I love the way you tell me what to do ... and the description ... The fact that you move from present to past tense in the last couple lines shows a lingering sadness, an unfulfilment... this is a beautiful piece

I am shaken to my core. I am not a regular commenter here, but I have been a regular reader for a very long time - I have eagerly looked forward to your posts and your lifestyle of choosing joy....

Who would think that the news that you are about to head home would be so devastating to me? I never thought it would be; I mean, I would read your words and go on with my day content, without so much as a thought of contacting you myself, the way that I have done with Mandy or Tam....

But .... I am.

Sweet Sara, I downloaded your songs that you posted on your blog and I have listened to them in rapt attention as your melodious voice caressed my ears and mind.

I have followed Riley's antics and smiled at every picture.

I have been with you as people come in and out of your life through the pages of your blog and some through the front door.

We have never met. But yet, we have.

I am in Barbados. Your life has reached me.

As Gandalf said in the Lord of the Rings, "I will not say, 'Do not weep,' for not all tears are an evil..."

My heart is breaking.

But I have to say two more words before you go home.

THANK YOU.

Re: 10 Reasons Why Alphas Is Better Than Heroes

bajanpoet — Wed, 14 Sep 2011 10:04:12 -0000

I love Alphas :) And you are so right about it being better than Heroes - the sexual tension between Hicks and Nina, Bill's barely there tolerance of Gary ... it makes for some awesome episodes :) I love it!

Re: I met someone. And I think she's pretty special.

bajanpoet — Fri, 05 Aug 2011 07:50:14 -0000

Yeah, I'm dealing with loneliness ...

Been separated from my wife for over a year .... no real hope of reconciliation - but the loneliness eats me out at night. Sometimes it's good, and I can sleep .... other times I am crushed by it and I lie awake needing to be held...

It is hard :(

(btw - I loved your post today.)

Re: A Question for You…

It's not my fault that the guy's insecure... *grin*

bajanpoet — Tue, 17 May 2011 16:00:47 -0000

I have a great friend who is female - in fact, we are so close that a guy she was interested in was convinced that we are sleeping with each other! That never happened. We don't really have any limitations - we respect each other and it never even came up about our different races. There is no sexual tension at all, and we can talk about ANYTHING. So it is possible.

Re: Butt-rockets, BlogRocket, and no advice from the VWM.

bajanpoet — Tue, 29 Mar 2011 00:09:33 -0000

I started blogging coz ... well, I like writing. And my first blogging attempt sucked and I didn't stay at it very long coz I lacked focus. But then I had an epiphany .... my focus should be all the AWESOME stuff I saw happen when I prayed for people! Like d'uh.... why didn't I think of that before? Now, it's 2011... I look back on my first blog post and see a 2007 timeline and I'm like, "Huh? Where did the time go?" But I've seen some awesome stuff along the way. And a bit of personal hardship is thrown in, just so you know I'm like, human.

My best piece of advice? Seriously? Be nice to your readers. I didn't even know it was something you did, but anytime a new commenter comes on to my blog, I ALWAYS send them a personal email along with the reply to their comment. You know, just so they don't think they've stumbled onto a robot harvesting site or something, and that someone human actually lives here.

I'm so excited for you!!!! I haven't done it yet, but I plan to. I have plans to go both to Nigeria this year and South Africa next year to meet up with people who have become more than blog friends, but FAMILY since they were there for me when I was most down and depressed - even when people closest to me didn't really know. Will it be awkward? I don't expect so, because we connect in other ways instead of just the blog comments - one of them is on my BlackBerry Messenger and I talk to her every day... the other is on my Gmail chat - and we used to talk every day, but her job changed, so we don't hook up as much. But I'm sooooo excited! Let us know how it goes!

Re: This should be interesting.

bajanpoet — Mon, 07 Feb 2011 10:41:08 -0000

Not yet - but I have plans! I'm saving to go to Nigeria this year and possibly South Africa next year to meet up with some of the people who I met on my blog. Awkward???? I don't expect so ... the people I'm going to meet have become more than blog responders, more than friends... but they have become FAMILY that I just haven't seen face to face yet. I'm excited for me - and for you! I'm eager to see the post about your meeting up with your new friend!

Mine is MOMENTUM... I love the idea of having a visual reminder. I have it as my Blackberry Messenger status so I can always see it when I chat with others :)

All I have to say is that you inspire me Sara...you inspire me. You give Isa 41:10 new meaning "Fear not, I am with you. Be not dismayed, I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."

"There is a part in a Selah song, Unredeemed, that says: "Life breaks and falls apart, but we know these are the places where grace is soon to be so amazing. They may be unfulfilled, they may be unrestored, but when anything that's shattered is laid before the Lord – just watch and see – it will not be unredeemed."

That's how I am going to look at the tears. The place that feels broken. They aren't weak or something to be afraid of... they are just the places where grace is soon to be so amazing."

I am so glad to have read this. I am at a place where there is a lot of pain and suffering - emotionally, relationally and spiritually. And sometimes I WANT the tears to fall, but they won't... but thanks for validating the fact that I am not weak for feeling the tears ... and that these are the places where grace is soon to be amazing!!!!! Thank u for that.

<3 u Sara....
