Love’s Anthem: Heart Check One, Two 

Let love speak loud, let it be crystal clear; let its anthem rhythmically flip the script. Whenever love drops its heartfelt rhyme, it’s not an ordinary microphone; it’s another magic moment. Mic check one, two. When love leans in, tap on its heart, give it a little feedback; does it resonate, does the love speak volumes? Does it seem another plug, or deep love plugged into the right power source, giving you the best of its heart? True love doesn’t rely on the right sound quality, to reverberate effortless. Amped up verbs, might echo the sound of music, but if its intentions are not truly instrumental, how could it ever be profound? Real love has certain kind of richness, permeating its truth endless, love’s clarity experienced HD surround. Love, the heart’s finely tuned instrument, deeply felt sound waves converted; its good variation, its sweet sensation. Hearts around the world, turn up the bass. Let love speak true, its beauty seep through. Every stage of life, let love step up to the mic — heart check one, two.

Song Inspired: When You Believe

Love’s Unchained Melody

Dearest love, you are the heart of what my soul believes. The Greatest Love of All, has no bounds. Deepest verse of a note-filled lyric, the song playing in the depth of this heartfelt melody. Day and night words pray, proof anyone hears, love echoing its hopeful rhapsody. Knowing there’s much to fear, in your embrace we’ve been moving mountains — long before a single breath knew it could. There can be miracles when you believe, that though hope is frail, tethered to faith love knows; You’ll Never Stand Alone. No heart knows what miracles it can achieve? But in love when you believe, somehow, it’s revealed to you — love’s freedom will be. Love, my heart has become so full, words can’t even explain. How tears for fear, being the most beautiful exchange, love liberating my heart and soul with its unchained melody — no fear of the unknown. Dearest love, when I need to believe, I Look to You. I Believe in You and Me, in what this will forever be. Nobody, loves me like you do!

*** When You Believe, is a song by Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey — released in 1998. ***

Since 2018, I’ve been taking one of Whitney’s songs, and used it to write a song inspired post here on WordPress — on or near her birthday; which is August 9th, commemorating her life and legacy.

Here are the previous titles, and the year they were published:

One Moment in Time – 2018, Need You – 2019, Run to You – 2020, You Were Loved – 2021, You’ll Never Stand Alone – 2022, I Look to You — 2023, I Believe in You and Me – 2024, Home – 2025

Embracing Life’s Journey | Courage, Faith, and Heart 

Life is a journey from the moment we take our first breath. We enter it dependent on others to help guide the way. Not knowing where the path will take us, we learn how to stand strong navigating life’s sway. Step by step, growing stronger and wiser one day at a time. Living breath by breath, letting passion and compassion elevate the journey moment by moment. If mountains high, let your heart soar. In valleys low, in deep rivers true love deeply flows. The story unfolds, the pages untold, with courage so bold. You only need faith to believe, a life lived well received. Your heart on a profound journey, a beacon of hope so free. Shining bright for all to see, for that someone who may be following — the luminous light they see in you.

Encamped: Love’s Deep River Encounter

My heart, encamped by the shores of love’s deep river, my innermost basking in the crackling warmth of its peaceful sublime. My soul, content with the nature of its breathtaking ambiance, my heart captivated by its irrevocable embrace. Like that of an endearing campsite, the essence of its light lingers breathless — within the wee moments of love’s perfect starry gaze. My heart exposed, love camped so close and dear to the depth of my heart and soul. Closer with every breath, and every deeply felt exhale. Its flame, its closeness, more than a burning; its consuming desire, live wholeheartedly in its rhapsody. My heart encamped within its canopy, its breadth enthralled within the fabric of my being. My heart not fishing for compliments, my soul cast wide and free. Every encounter being love’s deep places, my heart drowning breathless within its unfathomable depths. Every day, its insatiable fire kindled new, burning faithfully — through and true.

Growing into Yourself

Dearest Flower, life’s quintessential journey, seeds of progression within a heart blossoming, its soulful destiny of becoming. Along the way, heart adjustments, its heartfelt realization: its lifetime process of inevitability’s sway. Baby steps, learning that even if one foot in front of the other, we can still fall short of true potential. But keep growing; being grateful for every breath, grace afforded by love’s sublime breadth. Never giving up, innermost awakened existence. Even if the sun doesn’t shine, and the rain falls from clouded vision, faith watered grows deeper. Strong roots, even if seasons of personal growth seem stagnant; heart and soul never swayed by momentary drought. Consistent weeding, allows rooted expectations to flourish, possibilities become endless. Buds of succession, growing into fullness, life’s endearing bloom encountering the beauty within forevermore. Yours truly!

Love Makes Everything… Beautiful

Love’s Vibrant Hue

Does love whisper the intimate details of your heart and soul? Do you find that even when your mind is distracted, love does it so intuitively, makes the essence of your heart known? Have you found yourself showing compassion, going out of your way to help someone in need? That’s just like love, doesn’t feel the need to ask your heart permission, to spill the content of your soul. In the daylight, it’s the light that shines. In the nightlight, it’s the ambiance shimmering incandescent. In the twilight, its unwavering presence will never slumber. No amount of darkness, could ever eclipse the beauty of its glow, restrain the breadth of its radiance. The question you need to ask yourself, does your love know how to make everything… beautiful?

Celebrate Your Resilience: Small Wins and Inner Strength

We all have things that we have made it through, more than what you don’t let anyone know. They may not be monumental, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t celebrate the small wins nevertheless. Celebrate you, for the courage to spread your wings and rise like an eagle. We so often pour out the best of ourselves, forgetting we need to spiritually fill back up our own cup. The scars that cut deep don’t define; they help to refine your resilience. If you’re still finding your way, and no one is there to cheer you on? Clap for yourself, for all the times you held on: faith made that small victory possible. Even though you can’t see what tomorrow will bring, celebrate the fact that through every storm your heart faces, your inner strength has never wavered. And, even though it’s hard sometimes, to find a moment within the business of the day to just exhale. Every day, take a moment to celebrate you, for giving your own heart the love it irrevocably needs to be.
