"Sorry...TOO LATE!"

"How Did It Get So Late So Soon?"
The question left on the lips of the one who has just been announced late.
Some things we want done , but we sadly leave undone for reasons not far fetched; Fear & Fright, Procrastination & Carelessness, Ignorance & Shallow mindedness. But amongst all these, one combination stands tall i.e ; HESITATION + LACK OF COURAGE

---------------------TOO LATE------------------------
A time comes when we're screwed NOT FOR WHAT WE SAID, BUT FOR WHAT WE DIDN'T SAY.
And we face the ugly music, NOT FOR WHAT WE DID, BUT FOR WHAT WE FAILED TO DO.
A time comes when we're judged NOT FOR WHAT WE BELIEVE, BUT FOR WHAT WE DID NOT BELIEVE.
And we're stranded, NOT FOR JOURNEYS WE MADE, BUT FOR JOURNEYS WE FAILED TO MAKE.
A time comes when we're disgraced NOT BY THE PEOPLE WE MEET, BUT FOR PEOPLE WE REFUSED TO MEET.
And we're sorry, NOT FOR THE RISKS WE TOOK, BUT FOR THE RISKS WE DIDN'T TAKE.
A time comes when we're punished, NOT FOR OUR IGNORANCE, BUT FOR WHAT WE KNEW AND COULDN'T APPLY.
And we're denied NOT THE THINGS WE ASK, BUT ONLY THOSE WE FAIL TO ASK.
Respecting the law of TIMING, and remaining SENSITIVE to the times is key. Having an EYE for OPPORTUNITIES and taking them courageously when they come is even more germane.
PROCRASTINATION will always be COSTLY and HESITATION can cost you.
Do what thou must!
Till date, THERE'S STILL NO HARM IN TRYING, and yet NO CRIME IN ASKING....only know and get it settled within you that there are two possible answers;
The one a YES and the other (NO) is not the end.
Its true, not everything lies within our powers as mere mortals, but some, about many do.
Never You Take Chances, but only take your chances whenever they come.
Forever is too long to sob over opportunities left to fallow, Forever is too long to regret chances blown away and allowed to wallow.
They always come back to haunt us, however long.

"So what do we do? Anything. Something. So long as we just don't sit there. If we screw it up, we start all over.... We try something else. If we wait until we've satisfied all the uncertainties, it may be too late." .........
How late are you?.... I wish I knew too
How much longer do we have? .....I wish I could tell.

But I know this;
"...Dreaded Is The Phrase TOO LATE, and you sure don't want to be told when you arrive." -TW™
...There's an immeasurable distance between late and too late. Optimize it!

That (il)legal Tender.

"A huge number of humans have their Truth-Reserve/account either fat or static. We rarely withdraw nor spend from it, and will rather run life's transactions with that (il)legal tender, LIES". -TW™ Its not so amazing today how accepted, tolerated, and infact enjoyed (in the actual sense) lies are. Little wonder I chose to coin it as "(il)legal Tender". Illegal tender in every sense of it, yet legal tender judging by the widespread acceptance and employment of it. Why Account? Account owing to the fact that we know the truth, identify it, gather it, but yet fail to employ it, resulting to a mere build up (Account/Reserve) in our hearts, while refusing to spend/transact with it. Note: Truth spent yields even more dividends that truth stored. Why Lie? The "cover my/your arse" mentality/syndrome has taken the good-life over from us, I wonder why on God's earth we left our arses open in the first place, and who told us lies truly covers anyone'

"Meanings Make The Man, His Definitions Define Him"

"Its difficult, if not impossible to respond beyond your heart". How do I mean? "Your conceived, derived and/or imbibed idea of thing, defines your attitude towards it"-TW™ You've always wondered why you act the way you do, react the way you do, or respond to things the way you do. Hey, am not talking temperaments here, the boss (Tim Lahaye) already did, and he "took it to the cleaners'. Even in deceit, its a hard thing to behave/respond to a thing beyond what you think about it, know about it, and the values you have placed on it. Catching a golden mug falling directly towards your head for example is a scenario that captures correctly an aspect of my discourse. There exist a couple of options to this, and believe me, every man could respond differently to this situation. One of the responses to expect, which I know you know already is; Catching the mug, preventing it from hitting your head or even the fall. Another response would be; completely do

You Didn't Deserve To Die, I Didn't Deserve Your Life.

"Though you knew the world won't receive you, you still gave your life to try. Wonderful Jesus, how can I fathom you!" -TW™ What a burden you chose to carry, what a load of Sin. Without my burden, you rode on a donkey, with mine and the whole world's upon you, you decided walking on your feet was better. What manner of man are you? You saw us kill you, yet you allowed it, for you, anything will do, just as long as it'll please the Father. The bruises and the stripes alone was good enough, if it was just about the shedding of blood, you gave it in good quantity through the torture suffered in the hands of the Roman soldiers, you really did not need to die. This was more, this was great, in fact, "Greater love than this no man can give". You paid it all, you laid your life, you paid the ultimate price that I might live. Rejected and abandoned, yet all you saw was me. Disgraced, crucified and killed for a crime you had no hand in, yet all you saw w
