Warrior

This is our first guest post, written by Dan Johnson! You can find his prayer thread on YWP NaNoWriMo and his bio here. Many thanks to Dan for his contribution to both this blog and the world.

Greetings, my fellow people. My fellow warriors in the ongoing battle of life, struggling through difficult situations, battling our way through, hoping to find a peaceful and joyful moment in the midst of chaos. We are all in this battle, I assure you. We are all trying to do our best to stay strong.
Perhaps some of you are growing weak. You would like to give up and lay down. At some point, everyone feels like doing that. We all grow weary and desire to give up. But I urge you, do not give in! Do not give up! Stay strong, and lift up your head! Overcome the enemies of sadness, loneliness, anger, and all the rest. Do not be overwhelmed by your problems, for they can be defeated. You can stand strong in your life, standing back up when the problems of life knock you down. You must continue facing your enemies with every bit of strength you have. No matter what comes at you, stand right back up. To give up and lay down would be a great loss to your fellow warriors, and would certainly not be honorable. We all need you on your feet, to help us through this. We need to stay together to get through this war.
But perhaps you are strong. Perhaps you have defeated your present enemies. What does a warrior do when (s)he is no longer fighting in battle? They go seek out another opponent. For those of you who are still strong, help those around you. Don’t let a bit of your strength go to waste. Help your fellow warriors who are struggling with their problems. Because that’s what we’re trying to do. That’s what our main focus should be: to help others, and to do everything within our power to make this world a better place. None of us should ever stand alone. Reach out to others, for that’s the only way we can win this battle. We must lift each other up, and stay strong.
Maybe you know someone who needs help. Who is struggling with their problems. You can help them, whether it be to help them study homework, or simply being with them, or just smiling at them. Or, maybe you are that person. Maybe you are going through problems and facing struggles in your life. If you are, remember to stay strong. Remember, you’re not alone. We are here for you. We must face this war together. Don’t give up, no matter what. Keep going.

Rose

 Written by Charlie (poetrygirl68)

A single Rose sprouted among the dirt
Look at how it grew
All the rain that tried to wash it away
The wind that almost pulled the roots
The battles it won and fought to survive
The Rose's friends sadly lost
Mother Nature beat them down
The world clawed and scratched at the Rose
It struggled to survive but in the end,
It made it
How easy it would've been to let go
But the Rose never backed down
Now it can see all the pretty trees
Now it can breathe in the fresh air
Now it can be proud for hanging on
Never give in
Don't give up
Remember that you can be like the Rose
Remember that you are the Rose if you hang on tight
Nothing can ever beat you down
There are no reasons to give up
In the end you will be a strong soldier
You will be a strong little rose
Stand up when others thought you'd give up
You have so much worth living for
Stand up
Now

We’re all terminal but that shouldn’t stop us from doing great things. Even just a smile can help someone. Remember that you are the rose and you’re amazing.

Napping (Parody of "Happy")

It might seem lazy what I'm about to do
But I'm tired, and I need a break
I'm like a guy that never ate
Anything, like all day
Uh
Because I'm napping
Snore along if you feel like sleeping is the thing to do
Because I'm napping
Snore along if you feel like sleepiness is the truth
Because I'm napping
Snore along if you know what resting is to you
Because I'm napping
Snore along if you don't want to have anything to do

Here you come, into my room, yeah
Saying "Get up, blah blah blah..."
Well I should probably warn you I'll just sleep, yeah
No offense to you, I'm just tired
Here's why
Wake me up
Can't do it
Wake me up
I'm too tired
Wake me up
Can't do it
I snored (let me sleep now)
Wake me up
Can't do it
Wake me up
I'm too tired
Wake me up
Can't do it
I said
Because I'm napping
Snore along if you feel like sleeping is the thing to do
Because I'm napping
Snore along if you feel like sleepiness is the truth
Because I'm napping
Snore along if you know what resting is to you
Because I'm napping
Snore along if you don't want to have anything to do
Because I'm napping
Snore along if you feel like sleeping is the thing to do
Because I'm napping
Snore along if you feel like sleepiness is the truth
Because I'm napping
Snore along if you know what resting is to you
Because I'm napping
Snore along if you don't want to have anything to do
