    About this ebook

    I chose this title because I believe that holding fast to your dreams is of the utmost importance. Doing what we love in life satisfies us and this requires us to be "convicted." I believe both love and dreams are rooted in the same source, love!

      Exhaling

      Dec 7, 2021

      Around me are fifty or so men, in whose company I will sit and be silent for ten days. I eye them discreetly, wondering who among them is going through a crisis. Who, like me, has a family. Who’s single, who’s been dumped, who’s poor or unhappy. Who’

      Being an adult is… Being constantly aware that death is simultaneously very close and very far away, so each day is a rush to slow down so that you can get enough energy from stillness to speed up and get going. What are you worried about currently?

      Death Be Not Proud

      Aug 7, 2024

      THE above metaphoric sonnet was written by John Donne in the 1600s. It has much meaning as does the following one from the Bible book of 1st Corinthians: “Death where is thy sting?” Both quotations openly challenge the subject of death as if it is a

      Convicted Dreamer - James McGill

      Alive To Strive

      Day in, day out

      you dream about

      a life you began

      at times to doubt

      Hang true, hang tough

      You learn this stuff

      of life, it’s struggle

      to surpass the rough

      So begin, so start

      you came, you’ll part

      Hold fast your way

      rise above, be smart

      Head high, eyes fixed

      no deceit can mix

      You go, you learn

      You take your licks

      Day in, day out

      you dreamt about

      the life you began

      Your life, your route

      Living For Today

      Growing it reaches, never to grasp

      Growing it teaches, always to last

      Never’s too fast for the moment at hand

      For the moment at hand can’t take a stand

      So take it for now, let it go for tomorrow

      For a moment in time is only ours to borrow.

      New Age Current

      There’s a new age comin’

      it’s causing all the changes

      the pace is getting quicker

      hold on for the ride

      For the ride has just begun

      and it’s for what we sung

      but we must pay the price

      and it’s all we’ve done

      Look around see the confusion

      but lay it all to rest

      cause to make the other side

      we must pursue it as a test

      The lost people will be last

      to realize what’s going on

      they’re the ones with the doubt

      they’ll try to slow you down

      With head high follow inspi ration

      cause the new age is comin’

      don’t be caught feeling down

      cause the current starts within

      It’s powerfully big and it’s fact

      truth’s behind it pushing fast

      forget your scheming mind’s tact

      truth comes first and stays last

      Brighter Pastures

      Fast talking, back stabbing, leaving it behind

      discovering new fields, going to take my time.

      Suns are rising, white light energizing

      triumphant I will be.

      Finding it to be the brightest of brights

      with the darkest of blacks indeed.

      A combination of opposing energies

      with an understanding of the balance we need.

      Playin’ Again

      I’m rollin’ and a tumblin’

      throwin’ and a doublin’

      things getting dicey again.

      I’m a flippin’ and fumblin’

      strollin’ and stumblin’

      on my face again.

      I’m foldin’, no I’m holdin’

      am I standin’, am I callin’

      ace in the hole again.

      I’m winnin’, then I’m losin’

      first sittin’, then cruisin’

      playin’ the game again.

      ’Stead of passin’, I’m bettin’

      ’stead of losin’, I’m gettin’

      part way ’round again.

      I’m sweatin’ and I’m cursin’

      first payin’, then pursin’

      on a roll again.

      I’m breakin’ and I’m shakin’

      either bluffin’ or fakin’

      playin’ again and again.

      Heed The Seed’s Direction

      Whining and crying, caring to keep

      all the things that’ll change a sheep.

      Moaning and groaning, daring to leap

      when all we want is love to reap.

      Sighing and trying for the love we need

      to make it the flower instead of a seed.

      Means So Much

      It means so much to me

      to see it mean so much to you

      having it spread all over our globe

      Because when it means so much to us

      It’ll be in God we truly trust

      His means last forever

      Stop Already

      Got to get back, got to get back home

      got to get it happening in a real life tone.

      Been too long of a nap, too soon I’ll snap

      if I don’t get it happening and stop all this crap.

      Needing invigoration and a little inspiration

      needing a way out of this annihilation.

      ’Cause the walls are shaking, the floor is quaking

      then there’s the door and it’s only making

      the whole situation more frustrating.

      My bones are aching, my back is breaking

      then there’s my head and it’s only making

      the whole situation more frustrating.

      There’s been a mishap, I’ve been stuck with a rap

      that I know nothing about or how to adapt.

      Too long of a trial, too long of a
