    Only LOVE can conquer HATE Joyce!

     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT HATRED ...

    "Holding ANGER is a POISON. It eats you from inside. We think that HATING is a weapon that attacks the person who harmed us. But HATRED is a curved blade.

    And the HARMS WE DO, we do TO OURSELVES."
     
    ~ Mitch Albom

     YOU CANNOT HATE OTHER PEOPLE WITHOUT

    HATING YOURSELF!  HATRED AND ANGER ARE

    POWERLESS WHEN MET WITH KINDNESS AND LOVE!

    Here's to NEW BEGINNINGS Joyce!

     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT NEW BEGINNINGS ...

    "EVERY DAY is a NEW BEGINNING.

    Treat it that way.

    Stay away from WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN,

     and LOOK AT WHAT CAN BE."

    ~ Marsha Petrie Sue from "The CEO of You"

    THE SECRET TO A RICH LIFE IS TO HAVE MORE

    BEGINNINGS THAN ENDINGS!

    Hello Joyce!

     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT CHILDREN ...

    "Let us be the ones who say WE DO NOT ACCEPT that a CHILD DIES EVERY 3 SECONDS simply because he does not have the drugs you and I have.

    Let us be the ones to say WE ARE NOT SATISFIED that your PLACE OF BIRTH determines your RIGHT TO LIFE.

    Let us be OUTRAGED, let us be LOUD, let us be BOLD."

    ~ Brad Pitt, Actor

    CHILDREN ARE THE HANDS BY WHICH WE TAKE HOLD OF HEAVEN.  THE ONLY THING NECESSARY FOR THE TRIUMPH OF EVIL IS FOR GOOD PEOPLE TO DO NOTHING!

    Sending LOTS OF LOVE to you Joyce!

     
     
    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT SERENITY AND PEACE ...

    "May you find SERENITY and TRANQUILITY in a world you may not always understand.

    May the PAIN you have known and the CONFLICT you have experienced give you the STRENGTH to walk through life facing each new situation with COURAGE and OPTIMISM.

    Always know that there are those whose LOVE and UNDERSTANDING will ALWAYS BE THERE, even when you feel MOST ALONE. May you discover enough goodness in others to believe in a WORLD OF PEACE.

    May a KIND WORD, a REASSURING TOUCH, and a WARM SMILE be yours every day of your life, and may you give these gifts as well as receive them. Remember the SUNSHINE when the STORM seems unending."

    Joyce,

    IN HONOR OF THE BIRTH OF JESUS ON CHRISTMAS, I GIVE YOU THE FOLLOWING ON THE LIFE OF JESUS ...

    "Here is a man who was born in an obscure village, the child of a peasant woman. He worked in a carpenter shop until he was 30, and then for 3 years He was an itinerant preacher.

    He never wrote a BOOK. He never HELD AN OFFICE. He never OWNED A HOME. He never had a FAMILY. He never went to COLLEGE. He never put his foot inside a big city. He never traveled 200 miles from the place where he was born. He never did ONE OF THE THINGS that usually accompany greatness. He had no credentials but HIMSELF.

    While still a young man, the TIDE OF POPULAR OPINION turned against him. He was turned over to his ENEMIES. He went through the MOCKERY OF A TRIAL. He was nailed to a Cross between two thieves. His executioners gambled for the ONLY PIECE OF PROPERTY he had on earth while he was dying—and that was his robe.

    When he was dead he was taken down and laid in a BORROWED GRAVE through the pity of a friend. He AROSE FROM THE DEAD and ascended into HEAVEN. Twenty centuries have come and gone. I am within the mark when I say that all the ARMIES that ever MARCHED, and all the NAVIES that ever were BUILT, and all the PARLIAMENTS that ever SAT, and all the KINGS that ever REIGNED, PUT TOGETHER, have not affected the life of man upon this earth as POWERFULLY as has that ONE SOLITARY LIFE."

    ~ James C. Hefley

    MAY YOU AND YOUR FAMILY ENJOY PEACE AND JOY THIS CHRISTMAS!

    With LOVE, RESPECT, and PEACE my friend,

    Richard

Biography

My name is Joyce Dijkgraaf, and I was born 23 springs ago in the Netherlands. Mainly I am a singer, and when I don't sing I write music. If you are on a quest for meaningless pop songs, you're at the wrong place. I write about the things most people worry about. Insecureness, finding yourself, accepting flaws and the things I worry about in society. I like to participate in diverse projects and music styles of which you can take a peak on my website/project page. I will not back down for new challenges, on the contrary. I will grab them with both hands and try to get the most experience out of it as possible. This is one of the reasons I'm in a school for music. Practising my passion every day, how lucky am I!. My future plan contains writing and performing with Sarah's Smile and working together with other diverse artists. The stage feels like home and I know I belong there.

Please feel free to email me if you have questions or remarks.
