"Happy New You: Embracing Time and Self-Realization in the New Year" by Ricardo Derose.

Happy New You
Remember, time is ageless,
The number of years does not affect its duration,
But it affects YOU.
Remember, your life is not limitless,
Every single breath you take, take a step of devotion,
Into realizing YOU.

~Ricardo Derose



Title: "Happy New You: Embracing Time and Self-Realization in the New Year" by Ricardo Derose

As the new year unfolds, it's a time of reflection, a moment to ponder the relentless march of time and its impact on our lives. Today, I want to share a piece of my heart, a poem that speaks to the essence of time and self-realization. "Happy New You" is not
just a collection of words; it's a message, a reminder of the ageless nature of time and the limitless potential within each of us.

The Timeless Nature of Time

"Remember, time is ageless,
The number of years doesnot affect its duration

But it affects YOU."

These lines capture the paradox of time - ageless yet impactful. Time itself remains constant, unaffected by the years that pass. Yet, its effect on us is profound. Each year that we add to our age marks a period of growth, learning, and transformation. It's a reminder that while time is infinite, our journey within it is finite.

Embracing the Limitless Potential
Within

"Remember, your life is not limitless, Every single breath you take, take a step of devotion, Into realizing YOU."

Here, the poem shifts focus to the individual - to you. It's a call to action, urging us to use every breath and moment as an opportunity for self-discovery and realization. Our lives, unlike time, are limited, and this realization should fuel our desire to make the most of every moment and to understand and embrace the unique individuals we are.

A New Year, A New You
As we step into the new year, let this poem be a guide, a beacon that illuminates the path to self-awareness and fulfillment. Let us not be daunted by the passage of time but be inspired by it. Each new year is a chance to rediscover ourselves, grow, and evolve.

In Conclusion: The Journey of SelfDiscovery
"Happy New You" is more than a wish; it's a journey of continuous self-discovery and growth. As we navigate the waters of time, let us do so with devotion and a deep desire to realize our true potential.

Thank you for joining me in this reflection. May this new year bring you closer to understanding and realizing the incredible person you are. Embrace the journey, for in each moment lies the opportunity to become a new, more enlightened version of yourself.

"A Christmas Story: A Song for Peace and Reflection" by Ricardo Derose.

The Walk – A Christmas Story

(Written, performed, and produced By Ricardo Derose)
1st Verses:

I don't wish for too much
Simple things are enough
Like a starry sky with bright lights
To night

Love is what I hope for
Peace is what I wish for
Home is where I will be
You see




Chorus:
As I walk around town into a Christmas story
Life is never easy, but it gets better, so breathe
I hope this year's Christmas…Brings peace
Be the change that you wish…to see

2nd Verses:
Just don't worry too much
Do your best to keep in touch
Let them know they're thought of
It's love

Give without expecting
Give to those who can't give
It's the season of giving
Just give

Bridge:
It's busy outside; people are shopping wild, partying through the night
It's chilly outside; hold my hands and smile because it's Christmas.
Chorus:

As I walk around town into a Christmas story
Life is never easy, but it gets better, so breathe
I hope this year's Christmas…Brings peace
Be the change that you wish…to see

Title: "A Christmas Story: A Song for Peace and Reflection" by Ricardo

As the festive season approaches, bringing the promise of joy and togetherness, I find myself reflecting on the deeper meanings and messages that this time of year can bring. Today, I want to share a song I have written, performed, and produced called "The Walk - A Christmas Story." This song is a melody and a message, a call for peace and love in a world often torn apart by conflict and strife.

The essence of "A Christmas Story" is a simple wish for the beauty of a starry sky and the warmth of love. It's a reminder that sometimes, the most profound joys in life are the simplest ones. The chorus echoes the sentiment of hope and urges us all to be the change we wish to see in the world.

In the second verse, the song emphasizes giving without expecting anything in return. It's a powerful message about the true essence of the holiday season. The song's bridge depicts the holiday season's hustle and bustle, juxtaposed with the need for warmth, connection, and genuine smiles. It's a reminder that amidst the chaos and commercialism, the true spirit of Christmas lies in simple acts of kindness.

As we celebrate this Christmas, remember that many parts of our world are engulfed in conflict and suffering. "A Christmas Story" is a heartfelt plea for peace, understanding, and compassion. It's a reminder that each of us has the power to bring about change, to spread love, and to make the world a little brighter.


In conclusion, as we walk through our towns and cities this Christmas, let us carry the message of this song in our hearts. Let us look up at the starry skies and remember our shared humanity. Let us reach out with love, give generously, and embody the peace we wish to see.

Thank you for taking the time to listen to my song and for embracing its message. May this Christmas bring peace, love, and joy to you and your loved ones, and may we all be inspired to make the world a better place.

"The Ripple Effect: Steven Mulyowa's Vision and Our Collective Humanitarian Call" by Ricardo Derose.

"Be A Humanitarian"

As children of the Earth, we should show kindness
Help your brethren in need in showing human-ness
Donating what you can can never be senseless.
At this stage, all is useful, even a few cents.

No matter how small you donate,
Will contribute to changing these children's fate.
Be concerned; do not act with indifference
Together, we can make a difference.

Be A Humanitarian;
get involved to ease a fellow Earthling's pain.
Let compassion be your guide, and you will understand.
That you must help your brethren who need a hand.

~Ricardo Derose



"The Ripple Effect: Steven Mulyowa's Vision and Our Collective Humanitarian Call" by Ricardo Derose.

Life is a series of interconnected moments where a tiny act of kindness can create ripples that touch countless lives. Today, I wish to share a story that embodies this essence of interconnectedness and the profound impact of humanitarianism. It's the story of Steven Mulyowa, a beacon of hope in eastern Uganda, and his vision that has the potential to transform not just a village but the very fabric of society.

In my Philoetry, "Be A Humanitarian," I emphasize the importance of showing kindness, of being there for our fellow Earthlings, and of understanding that even the smallest act can make a significant difference:
As children of the Earth, we should show kindness
Help your brethren in need in showing human-ness
Donating what you can can never be senseless.
At this stage, all is useful, even a few cents.

Steven Mulyowa is the living embodiment of this philosophy. His journey, marked by personal tragedies and immense responsibilities, is a testament to the indomitable human spirit. Orphaned at a young age, Steven took the Herculean task of raising his eight younger siblings. With the support of his community, he learned the art of sustainable farming, ensuring not just the survival but the thriving of his family.

But Steven's vision extended beyond his immediate family. Recognizing the transformative power of sustainable farming, he embarked on 'Phase I' of his vision, creating a model farm on his half-acre plot. With the support of our global family, this vision saw the light of day, leading to the birth of multiple baby goats, a thriving flock of turkeys, and a community that began to see the possibilities of sustainable living.

The success of 'Phase I' is not just about numbers. It's about proving that with determination, vision, and collective effort, we can create sustainable ecosystems that benefit entire communities. And now, as we stand on the cusp of 'Phase II,' we can amplify this impact manifold.

Steven's 'Phase II' vision is grand in its scope and potential impact. A 5-acre farm that serves as a demonstration and educational center, an incubator for healthy hatchlings, a visitor information center, and an internship program. It is not just a farm; it's a hub of learning, growth, and community development.

But why is it essential for us to support this vision? Because in Steven's story, we see the power of humanity. We see that challenges can be overcome with determination, vision, and collective effort, no matter how impossible they seem. One man's dream can become a community's beacon of hope. And most importantly, we see the ripple effect of our actions.

As I've always believed and expressed in my writings:
Be A Humanitarian;
get involved to ease a fellow Earthling's pain.
Let compassion be your guide, and you will understand.
That you must help your brethren who need a hand.

Steven's journey, his vision, and our collective efforts are a testament to the power of humanity. It's a reminder that when we come together as one global family, there's no challenge too big, no dream too ambitious.

So, I invite you, my global family, to support Steven's 'Phase II' vision. Let's come together to create ripples of change, show the world the power of humanitarianism, and prove that we can make a difference.

No matter how small, every contribution will play a part in this transformative journey. Let's unite in this mission, for in the words of my Philoetry, "Together, we can make a difference."

"The Eternal Dance of Life: A Philoetic Exploration" by Ricardo Derose.

Life Chronicles

Life is an eternal continuation.
We are all caught up in a spiral of evolution.
We are never going to a specific destination.
But we are always following a chronological direction.
From young to grown...
...And from grown to the unknown.

~Ricardo Derose

"The Eternal Dance of Life: A Philoetic Exploration" by Ricardo Derose.

Life is a vast, intricate tapestry woven with threads of experiences, emotions, and memories. Each moment, each heartbeat, is a stitch in this grand design, connecting us to the past, present, and infinite possibilities of the future. As I often muse in my moments of introspection, life is not a linear journey with a set beginning and end. Instead, it's an eternal continuation, a dance that weaves through the rhythms of time.

In my recent poetic reflection, "Life Chronicles," I delve into this essence of existence. The poem captures the cyclical nature of life, emphasizing that we are all part of an ever-evolving spiral. We may often feel that we are racing towards a particular goal or destination, but life is about the journey itself, not the endpoint.

Life is an eternal continuation.
We are all caught up in a spiral of evolution.
We are never going to a specific destination.
But we are always following a chronological direction.
From young to grown...
...And from grown to the unknown.

The beauty of life lies in its unpredictability. From the innocence of youth to the wisdom of age, we transition through various phases, each bringing its own set of challenges, joys, sorrows, and learnings. But even as we grow and change, the essence of who we are remains constant. We carry forward the lessons of the past, applying them to our present and shaping our future.

However, it's essential to remember that growth doesn't imply a mere upward trajectory. Just as a spiral has its ups and downs, life is a mix of highs and lows. This very unpredictability, this dance between joy and sorrow, adds depth to our existence. As I mention in the poem, the unknown is not something to be feared but embraced. For it is in the realm of the unknown that possibilities are born.

In today's fast-paced world, getting caught up in the race for achievements and milestones is easy. But true fulfillment comes from understanding and embracing the cyclical nature of life. It's about finding joy in the journey, cherishing each moment, and recognizing that we are all part of a larger cosmic dance.

To all my readers, please take a moment to reflect on your life's journey. Celebrate your highs, learn from your lows, and always keep dancing to the rhythm of life. In this dance, we find purpose, meaning, and the true essence of existence.

Be A Humanitarian:(By Ricardo Derose)

It all happened so fast; they didn't have a chance
to go and say goodbye to their loved ones or friends
so many people die, leaving the rest hopeless
with no water, no food, and most of them homeless
as children of the earth, it's time to show kindness
help your brothers in need is offering human-ness
donating what you can, can never be senseless
at this stage, all is useful, even a few cents

Bridge:
Our fathers are missing
Our mothers are grieving
Brothers and sisters are orphans
we are part of the same world, so let's please give them a chance.
Look at all of them starving
lend a hand before it's too late
We can help them make it
we just have to unite then we can free them overnight.
Chorus:
No matter how small you donate
the lives of thousands you will save
together we can make a difference
Be A Humanitarian
help your brother who needs a hand
Look at those children drying
listen to their mothers crying
together we can make a difference
Be A Humanitarian
Help your brethren

It's sad but true to know that life is so fragile
the way that death hits us sometimes is so hostile
today's their turn, tomorrow might be yours or mine
and no one knows how's gonna be the next in line
as long as you're alive, my friend, don't stop giving
help the less fortunate is showing that you're caring
give them the light of hope, to help them heal their pain
United, we should stand and give the best we can.
