God Is Love



God is good,
God is great
There is a path on which
We must stay straight

Choose wise, all ye men
For know that God is near
For which path you take
Know that God is always there

Love and happiness in Heaven is eternal
Destruction and anger in Hell is burning forever
So, if you love someone, tell them today,
For tomorrow may be too late

We must learn to be patient
We must learn to wait
He only takes the good ones
And does not hate

Throw a smile
Then wait awhile
It might be just what you've prayed
God is love forever and ever
Amen.

Throughout my lifetime, I have been diagnosed with bipolar I, borderline personality disorder, anxiety, ADHD, and OCD. However, no one is actually convinced or definite on any one diagnosis. Nevertheless, I seriously do not need any diagnosis to know who I am. I am Heather M Ryan, and I am beautifully crazy in my own chaotic way; I almost always have a method to my madness. These are my feelings, my opinions, and my own personal thoughts. I was born with a silver spoon in my mouth, but my life hasn't always been that way. I have been at most ends of the spectrum… rich and miserable, poor and madly in love, desperate, depressed, and homeless. Like my brain, I still have yet to find a happy medium in life. The last 45 years have left me in tears, shaking with fear and panic, running from a painful reality and past, the streets in the pouring down rain, homeless praying God would answer my prayers and send help, naked under the stars and in complete awe at how God works miracles just when you think all is lost. God has brought me from the deepest darkest depths of hell into the sunlight and has showered me with love and mercy time and time again. I look forward to enjoying this final chapter of my life with you and anyone else that would like to join us.
