Fuel Your Soul

Gone too soon.

I once knew a girl. Fearfully and wonderfully made. Her life destined for greatness, her future as bright as the moon. I once knew a girl whose eyes would light up the soul of anyone she locked eyes with, whose innocent laughter would electrify the room with pure joy. I once knew girl whose cry would move many and her presence brought peace among those around her.

At eight months this girl I once knew was peacefully removed from earth but to the lives she touched she had been ripped away from them. Gone to soon for her life was destined for greatness, her future as bright as the moon. Her last breath taken in her sleep, her birth right of life infringed by the evil wrath of death. Oh how we wish we could have saved her.

Lost in her dreams this girl I once knew could not be awakened. Her body untainted in the arms of her sobbing mother but her spirit in the arms of our embracing Father. Gone too soon at eight months for her life was destined for greatness, her future as bright as the moon. I guess Heaven needed a fearfully, wonderfully made angel.

First Post

Here is to my first post on the blog... I decided to start blogging to gain experience in the writing field as well as show case many Home Grown Stories which are untold, hence the title Home Grown Stories. These are the stories of the underdogs of our country which are still to be heard. I love hearing about how people become a success from the raw talent that they have within through determination, courage and dream chasing. No one can be too ambitious unless you are Kopano Tshabalala and can not sing to save your life but you still think you sing like an angel. If you feel that your life is an untold home grown story feel free to let me know, I would love to hear about it.
