The Kind of Judgement No One Cares About

So I thought I would take a break from all of the deep stuff I've been writing. (I need a break! The harder I try the heavier my heart feels.)  I did realize something new about myself though. I was looking up pictures from The Hunger Games movie. (I am almost finished with the 3rd book) A thought crossed my mind. "From now on Megan if you say a book looks stupid you should read it anyway!"

I said this to myself because every time I think a book looks stupid or I think I wouldn't like it and resist from reading it I get told a million times about how good it is and I ignore the people who tell me to read it. Then one day (after they have either made a movie about it or the sensation has grown cold) I finally read it and guess what.. yup! I LOVE IT! So I figure THIS right here is where the statement "never judge a book by its cover" came from! (yup, I got some blonde in me!) I always thought it was something some teacher or parent made up to help us to learn not to under estimate, judge, or pick on people. Which of course it is used for that as well but I never realized how literal I should take it!

It all began with the Twilight series. ( I know, I know, gimme a break will ya? lol ) It came out and I thought to myself oh geez oh stupid! I hate vampire stuff. I have never liked it so why would I like this book? How can a vampire story be a love story? No one could EVER love a vampire! I was told by a friend just give it a try and if you don't like it then just give it back. So I finally said alright. I started to read the book and to my amazement I absolutely loved it! I finished all the books in a matter of 2 weeks! Stephanie Meyer definitely put her heart and imagination in that book! So anyway, I saw the movies and of course it didn't do the books justice. Although I liked them too.

Then the Hunger Games came along. I didn't really hear much about it except a few people has said it was good. Then the movie previews came out and I thought to myself WOW what a horrible plot! How sad! Then more people kept saying how good it was and that I should read it. So I thought back to Twilight and told my self I would give it a try. Guess what? I can't help but love the crazy story of how life could be like if PEACE left this world! The book reiterates my feelings of how we should be treating each other! And how I should have treated these books lol. :) I have not seen the movie yet and I'm preparing my self to be disappointed as the movies are never as good as your own imagination. From now on though I'm not going to pass off a book that I think I will not like. Instead I am going to embrace it in my favorite reading spot. Curled up in my bed WITHOUT ANY SHOES ON! <3

Warning! Explicit lyrics to peaceful thoughts.

I have been struggling on what to write next. I have had many instances that I could write about but nothing sounded good to me once typed out. My mind has been all over the place lately. Prioritizing, and organizing every aspect of my life. I guess that has gotten in the way of my Blog lol :).   So then a thought came to mind. Why don't I just share two things with you that I have already written. Two poems that are dear to my heart. Some of you have already read them but here I will share with you my feelings about them and how I came to write them. So here goes the first one.....

Surrender

What wonder what wonder
We see all this thunder
Judgement and hatred
Make us go under

Fuck you, says who
Yea you, that dude
Don't you know?
You should have known better
There you go again judging another

But when judging one judging
Arent we doing it too?
Having the last word
Makes you the fool

Peace is speechless
No words worthy to describe it
So lets all be like peace
and just be quiet

How do you hear peace anyway?
In your head, in your heart, and actions today?
We should feel it with meaning and harmony.
Bleeding hearts with peace seem strong to me

Hates a strong word but peace is stronger
And if that weren't true
We wouldn't be here any longer

Riddle me that you hatred lovers
We don't care if you look down on us
Ive explained everything in my words before
I hope it shakes your mind and rocks you to the core!




Now That you have read it I'll tell you why it came out of me for you to see. At this point in my life I was tired of no one getting along and always arguing! I was feeling low, sad, mad, and determined! Knowing that I things could be better if we could just HEAR each other.. and because of that this came out.. :) Through all of this I did something and things got better which led me to the second one...


I Believe in Sunshine

I believe in sunshine
I believe in rain
I believe that praying
is what will ease the pain
Imagine if we couldn't
or prayer didn't exist,
What would we do?
How many would be slain?
Instead of crying "help me God"
We'd have no words to scream!
I believe in sunshine
I believe in rain
I believe that praying
is saying thanks for our grateful gain
Imagine if we couldn't
or prayer didn't exist
We'd have no one to thank
For this humble abyss!
I believe that praying
is something you don't want to miss!

So.... Now that you have read both. Peace, Prayer, Love, Happiness, all of these are what I'm trying to accomplish in my life and with this blog! I have never been really that open about things that are dear to me things that I cherish but we all should be! I hope that my boldness in stepping out will encourage you all. In whatever way that may be. Have a wonderful day!!!!!
