Before I Sleep

If I were hungry I wouldn’t tell you because
The whole world and everything within it is mine.
The cattle of a thousand hills are mine as well.
It would seem that there’s no reason for me to tell
Anyone of my troubles. I’m doing just fine.
The angels are delighted. I hear their applause.

For the most part this day has turned out as it should.
I thank God and the universe and I believe
That tomorrow I’ll be happier than today.
That I wake up to my true self is what I pray.
I would love to remain in the mood to receive
Heaven’s blessings, and heaven knows for me what’s good.

There’s nothing in particular I’m asking for.
I just want a good night sleep. I have no concern
That I wish to have carried into tomorrow
Lest I reactivate some forgotten sorrow.
From heaven I came down and to there I return
With each segment of slumber even if I snore.

I am not the object nor its shadow. What I
Truly am is the light of the world and I can
Change the object and therefore cast a new shadow
On the earth. In so doing I’m able to grow.
I only wish that tomorrow is better than
Today is – this damned hot final day of July.

The Power Of Love

Jul31

When you’re in a bad mood you’re sort of in a bad
Mood about everything, and the reverse is true.
When you’re in a good mood everything is alright.
Things that irritate you or that make you uptight
Don’t phase you when you’re happy, and the more that you
Focus on being happy, the less you’ll feel sad.

Much more than most people realize, everything
Blends together. At the same time we love and hate.
The mix of emotions cancels each other out.
So focus is important. There can be no doubt
That a much better society we create
As we stop and take notice of what’s happening.

When you’re newly in love everything starts turning
Up roses because now you’re focused on something
That allows for your energy to start flowing.
Everything in your life will be easy going,
And complex circumstances begin improving.
You want to show the world how you can dance and sing.

Many people have gone from sick to being well.
People have gone from poor to rich all because of
Their having fallen in love. We need distraction
From our normal thoughts, then our points of attraction
Are enlivened because of The Power Of Love.
At the art of loving we’re destined to excel.

About Gratitude

Jul30

Accustomed to the pavement and looks of disdain
From each passerby, one must compartmentalize
Feelings of desperation, shame, and hopelessness
From the art of the sale, as the face must express
Sincere need. One must hope people will sympathize
With their circumstance. This is what drives one insane.

Homelessness of the body, like that of the soul
That has lost its connection to reality,
Is a problem that people encounter each day.
People wish that the issue would just go away
But it won’t. It’s a part of our society
That in some basic ways is way out of control.

At some nook on the freeway the human billboard
Holds the message that cannot be well understood.
We don’t want to be interrupted from our own
Many issues. We won’t throw the poor dog a bone.
Trying to stuff the guilt doesn’t do any good
Because we’re not as practiced at being ignored.

Yet there are success stories. There are people who
Have reached out in a big way. Anyone can be
Faced with hard times. People who deal with homelessness
Work for others’ compassion. They are nonetheless
Worthy of being happy. Those who don’t agree
Have some gratitude issues they should attend to.

Remembering Why You Started

Jul30

Why did I even start this thing? I can’t recall
Exactly what the motive was. It had something
To do with self-expression. It had been my dream
To become something of an artist. It would seem
That there’s much competition, so what could I bring
To the table? My contribution would be small.

Yet I know that this attitude gets me nowhere
If I nurse it. I must shift my focus somehow
To something more befitting this now troubled soul.
This adventure I’m on I think can make me whole
As a person. My purpose here is to allow
My words to take on meaning that people can share.

It’s not like I am running some kind of a race
To a finish line. I don’t see this as a sport
To be played as if I were a verbal athlete.
If I got people to read this, that would be sweet
But it’s not necessary. I get my support
From within. To me that is a most sacred space.

I know that in this real world of uncertainty
People struggle before they see any progress.
My story is unwritten yet. This is a start
Of an eternal venture. I speak from the heart
To myself and the universe and my success
Is assured. I remember now who I’m to be.

Finding Ease

Jul29

I like ease. I like knowing that all is okay.
I want to have that feeling of satisfaction
And contentment that I had when I was a child.
Then I had the freedom to let my thoughts run wild.
As I thought them I had a point of attraction
That was powerful in every natural way.

I like ease. That’s the best word. I want to feel ease.
I want to feel at ease. I want to feel easy
And comfortable. I like feeling confident.
I like feeling that I can be fully present
In the moment. I like being where I should be
At all times. There’s no one else who I need to please.

I like feeling certainty so much that I know
That things are taken care of. I love to relax
And feel good about being alive on this earth.
I acknowledge the feeling of sunshine and mirth
Earth can offer. The feeling of performing acts
Of kindness to others is what I want to flow.

It just feels good to feel good. I like slowing things
Down a bit so I can have a conversation
With myself. I like mitigating the frenzy
With rest and relaxation. I love being free
To be free of resistance. A celebration
Is in order as the happy heart of me sings.

Stop Trying To Read Other People’s Minds

Jul29

Unless you’re truly psychic don’t take for granted
That what others are thinking are your thoughts as well.
Others don’t think the same way more often than not.
One who’s ill may believe there’s a sinister plot
To undo oneself and it’s the worst kind of hell
To go through. In the mind what’s not true is planted.

So I don’t make assumptions because it allows
Me to hear people, be more present, and not take
Things where they’re not supposed to go. I can be more
In the moment instead of in my head. Before
I jump to a conclusion, mostly for my sake,
To the purest of logic my heart must espouse.

All the sadness and drama that we manifest
In our lives is because of assumptions we’ve made
About others. We can’t read other people’s minds.
We come up with fantastic stories of all kinds
But they’re just that. We’re not on a foolish crusade
To gain knowledge of what people haven’t expressed.

We don’t have the courage to ask questions, so we
Make assumptions. We take things too personally.
We love people therefore we expect them to know
How we feel and think, so learning how to let go
Of our thoughts about it all is one way to free
Ourselves of our self-torment eventually.

On Being Alone

Jul28

There are two minds. One mind is always on the run
With its incessant chatter while the other mind
Remains silent. It doesn’t respond to outside
Interference, yet access is never denied
To its clarity. But we’re not often inclined
To partake of its peace as we’re getting things done.

Aloneness doesn’t mean being isolated
Having no friends and vanishing into a cave.
You can do that but you’ll take your two minds with you
And then meditate on things that you were told to
Meditate on. It’s just the way people behave
Aloneness and confinement are not related.

If you just take a moment – five seconds or so
To be quiet, everything that will disappear
In that time is what’s not real. When you’re not thinking
Everything that is lost is what you’d been linking
To your ego which operates much out of fear.
Your moments of aloneness can help you to grow.

When you consider yourself it’s all about thought.
Ninety nine percent of our life experience
Is in this world of virtual reality.
It’s an illusion of garden variety.
Is aloneness now making a whole lot more sense?
What you’ll find will astound you so give it a shot.

Totally Safe

Jul28

There’s only one certain way to be Totally
Safe in this life. The thing that anyone can do
Is develop harmlessness. In other words, your
Intentions toward others are benign and pure.
When you practice harmlessness no harm comes to you
Nor can you harm another for love is the key.

Does this mean that you’re powerless? Certainly Not!
Harmlessness is the state of being powerful.
You have no fear. Not a single person or thing
Can in any way hurt you. You feel like a king
Or a queen. You don’t have to put up with the bull
From the expressive ego that mouths off a lot.

All the energy you had been devoting to
Judging and attacking to preserve the ego
Is available to you to focus on your
Higher will. Of your happiness you can be sure,
And your manifesting powers will quickly grow.
All those dreams that you’ve dreamt will begin to come true.

You can really and truly relax and let go
Of the urge to defend what needs no defending.
Harmlessness is the state of deep relaxation
Wherein you own the power of your creation.
Be aware of the vibration that you’re sending
To the world and true safety is all that you’ll know.

Healing A Shattered Soul

Jul27

Everything revolves around the soul, however
Until we entered a transformation in our
Consciousness, we weren’t able to talk about the
Soul except as an aspect of theology
Or an abstract idea that has no power.
Going down that road was a foolish endeavor.

So, this transformation of consciousness that we
Have entered affects us individually
And collectively. We with our five sensory
Personalities are quickly coming to be
Multi-sensory so that eventually
We become whole thus integrated completely.

Limited in perception, the five sensory
Personality cannot make sense of the soul
And psychology doesn’t even recognize
Its existence, so it comes as not a surprise
That treating the dysfunction is the major goal
Of the therapist with whom one may not agree.

Personality defects can’t be understood
Apart from all of the karmic circumstances
That created them. We each have a shattered soul.
We use our personalities to make us whole.
All through the process we’re given many chances
To evolve hopefully in the way that we should.

Why Do You Want It

Jul27

It’s okay to want something. Some make the mistake
Of talking about where it’s going to come from,
How long it will take, and who will help to bring it
To fruition, but it’s not to one’s benefit
To ask questions one can’t answer. Beating the drum
Of self-doubt only gives one an awful headache.

Think about what you want but stay focused on Why
You want it, for example, it will make you feel
Good in the having of it. Don’t get specific
Unless you’re feeling somewhere between fantastic
And ecstatic, then the universe will reveal
Pertinent secrets to you. Do give it a try.

What’s the vibrational underlying reason
Why you want it? It’s because of the benefit
It will bring you because of what it will provide.
Once you get it, it will make you feel good inside.
But you can feel good right now if you will permit
It to happen. It’s always the happy season.

You want it because eventually you’ll know
Of your power to manifest and you’ll become
Better at it. The energy you radiate
Is your hands in the clay and you want to create
An incredible sculpture. Your power comes from
Focusing on the Why so that good things will flow.

Be Who You Were Made To Be

Jul26

What does it take to make life work? I remember
Sitting on the couch crying out into the night
“What do you want from me? What’s the reason I’m here?”
I received an answer that was perfectly clear.
My life is not about me. How can that be right?
Right off hand it’s not something with which I concur.

My life is about everyone whose life I touch.
It’s about universal me in the sense that
We’re all one. It’s not about individual
Localized me. I’m open to the rationale
That my life is for others. I need to look at
Things in life that to others matter very much.

I’ve been given everything I need; compassion,
Awareness, wisdom, intelligence, clarity,
Understanding, and generosity, but I
Haven’t used them enough which is the reason why
That I feel that I’m not who I was meant to be
Which is to be of kind service to everyone.

There are things that I must do to earn money and
Make relationships work, but all I need to do
Is just be who I am, the divine being who
Uses life’s events as opportunities to
Uplift others. I am on my way to a new
Way of living, and of life I make no demand.

The Heart Field

Jul26

Everyone has an electromagnetic field
And the earth has one also, in fact everything
That is living has this current running through their
Nervous systems. It’s the same energy we share
With the earth. Those who would find this interesting
Feel that this information should not be concealed.

There are satellites in space that actually
Test the electromagnetic field of earth. So,
After planes had crashed into the Twin Towers, they
Took some measurements and the energy was way
Off the charts. Much more scientists wanted to know
About this phenomenon of heart energy.

They hooked up machines to the heart and what they found
Was that it’s the emotions we experience
That causes this current to flow through our bodies.
Group healing can be done and with relative ease.
When one or more are gathered it makes perfect sense
That with this energy one must not fool around.

When more folks are gathered together they create
A grater energy force in this world. As we
Have our thoughts we must move into the emotion
That’s behind them. We must give proper devotion
To clearing out all of our negativity
And to remaining in a more positive state.

Something Incredible Is Going To Happen

Jul25

It’s the eleventh hour but it’s not midnight.
We need not be reminded of what must be done
To preserve our democracy. We can’t do this
Unless we want to change and we cannot dismiss
Obvious misbehavior by people who run
Every aspect of government. We want what’s right.

It can’t be just waking up enough to elect
Somebody who is different for president.
That’s so small compared to everything that’s at stake.
We need to wake up and we need to stay awake
To the methods of those who have evil intent.
One who speaks from the heart is the one to select.

Americans can always be counted on to
Do the right thing after we’ve exhausted every
Other option. The whole world is rolling their eyes
About us now because if we meet our demise
Then the whole world will suffer. For much too long we
Have been dragging our feet knowing not what to do.

We will do what other generations have done
Before us. We have not been responsible, but
That was then and this is now. We’ve gotten here late,
But we’re here and we’ve got a crap ton our plate
To deal with. As we do so, be prepared for what
Victory really feels like. We’ve only begun.

The Playing Field

Jul25

There’s something very dangerous and frightening
About what happens when a bunch of people who
Must hate gather together, but people who love
Have more power. Their consciousness is far above
That of others who have nothing better to do
Than to share things that are counter enlightening.

Why is it called The Playing Field? Are we a game?
And have We The People become innocent pawns
Who are ruled by corruption? The answer is Yes.
Who among those now playing will clean up the mess
Of our government? And what are the pros and cons
Of each runner? What message does each one proclaim?

It’s much bigger than Flint. It’s all over this land.
How people are mistreated especially those
Of color who do not have the means to fight back
Tells us that we adhere to a mindset of lack.
Who among those now running would want to expose
All the darkness? Who does have the most righteous stand?

Trading right and wrong for left and right, we’ve become
Extremely polarized. What can we do to change
This dynamic? The change is within everyone.
Unity in diversity cannot be done
If the notion of peace to some of us sounds strange.
Freedom is for all people and not just for some.

Pay Attention To Spirit

Jul24

Spirit Speaks. That’s a given. The question is how
It does so. Its language I fully recognize
In a few ways. When I feel good or I feel God
I’m aligned with my spirit. I don’t find it odd
That by just being happy I can realize
The full presence of Spirit. I need but allow.

Spirit Speaks when I’m in alignment with nature.
If a bird, for example, performs before me
In a way that’s not normal, I pay attention.
I take in the perfection of time suspension
In the moment. My Spirit urges me to see
Its connection to nature. I know this for sure.

Strange occurrences and seemingly odd events
Is my Spirit lining up coincidences
That may teach me some lesson or show me that I’m
In alignment. I don’t have to spend precious time
Coming up with sophisticated defenses
Against what each synchronicity represents.

Spirit also speaks through other people who I
Interact with. My Spirit is aligning my
Thoughts with events that are happening here and now.
My Spirit has the ability to endow
Me with absolute clarity. I can’t deny
The existence of Spirit. With it I comply.

The Whole Health Plan

Jul24

We need to enter the twenty first century
When it comes to our health care. We treat the disease
And its symptoms instead of getting to the cause
Of the illness. The system is riddled with flaws.
We’ve a sickness care system designed to appease
The big companies. It’s not the way it should be.

The Whole Health Plan you may hear about in a while
From a woman who’s running for president now.
It’s to do with more resources that are given
To prevention. Our health care ought to be driven
By the goal of wellbeing. The question is how
To get sick Americans to change their lifestyle.

It’s about increasing the opportunities
For good health. We must look at the carcinogens
In our food and contaminants in our water.
Protections that had passed have been put to slaughter.
This all looks very ominous seen through the lens
Of righteous observation. It puts none at ease.

Why McDonald’s can’t make the same French fry in France
That it does in America is because they,
Among many other countries, do not allow
Certain toxins in their food. The time is right now
To bring back regulation. We can in this way
Change much for the better our health care circumstance.

We must recognize that the corruption of our
Values has made us sicker. To incentivize
The health system may be the only solution.
Who would not at all be for the distribution
Of wellbeing? It comes as a pleasant surprise
To see leadership with the will to empower.

Control The Mind

Jul23

Have you ever found yourself deeply engrossed in
A good book or a movie where time seemed to pass
Effortlessly so quickly? This experience
Is a routine form of hypnosis. It makes sense
That it’s called ‘everyday trance.’ It is in a class
Of its own. It is from this premise we begin.

Hypnosis is a normal state that we enter
Many times during the day, and each time we get
Really focused on something. This ability
Can work miracles if it is done correctly.
Self-hypnosis is a valuable asset.
Consciousness is of which the brain is the center.

It involves becoming highly focused in your
Experience while giving yourself positive
Suggestions about ways to reach your goals. It can
Be empowering because in a short time span
You can change for the better the way that you live.
For what ails you self-hypnosis may be the cure.

Find yourself a comfortable and quiet place
To relax using a hypnotic induction
Like progressive muscle relaxation to ease
The tense body and breathe in and out as you please.
You then introduce a hypnotic suggestion.
It may be anything that you truly embrace.

What Does It Say About Us?

Jul23

There are one hundred thousand homeless children in
The United States. Children in this country go
Everyday to schools that don’t have enough supplies
To teach them to read, and it comes as no surprise
That if children don’t read by eight then they won’t grow
Properly. At the game of life they will not win.

Chances of high school graduation are decreased
As the chances of incarceration increase.
What Does This Say About Us? We seem more concerned
With our own childhood traumas. Our children are spurned
By this selfish behavior. How can we find peace
In our hearts? We don’t care about them in the least.

Millions of American children go to school
Everyday asking teachers, “Do you have any
Food for me?” We have children on suicide watch
In our schools. It appears that we’ve dropped down a notch
…Or a billion. Wake up to the reality
Of what’s happening to children that isn’t cool.

Traumatized before preschool, some children live in
What’s called ‘domestic war zones’ where PTSD
Is a serious issue because violence
They experienced. They had no means of defense.
What does it take to get many people to see
What work needs to be done and just how to begin?

Be The Energy That Creates Worlds

Jul22

All that is came to be. Is that all one can know
Of what is call existence? Is there a lot more
To be known about movement, time, space, energy,
And consciousness to be of interest to me?
Finding new ways of thinking is what I live for.
I can contemplate things like there’s no tomorrow.

When I show myself that I have the power to
Come into alignment, not just with who I was
Before I was born, but with all that I’ve become
Ever since, then I see where my power comes from.
I need not seek the favor or fickle applause
Of the public. To myself I must remain true.

When I show myself that by my being selfish
By reaching for the best feeling though I can find
About this present moment, I know that I’ve made
Great improvement and on the right path I have stayed
As the ways of the universe capture my mind
In a bubble. That it be released is my wish.

When I care about being in concert with the
Energy that creates worlds, I have more power
Than a billion who don’t care about anything.
To this method of communicating I cling.
The impressions I have I need not embower.
As with everything, it’s all about energy.

Loosen Up!

Jul22

All good work is exciting when you first start out.
Then as time goes by life happens and frustration
Is experienced often. The work must go on
But it’s now an entrapment. Ambition is gone
And there’s not enough time left for recreation.
Your dreams for the future are now riddled with doubt.

Don’t Be Tense. To be tense is the surest way to
Fail in any undertaking great or not so.
Your success is a splendid thing but don’t pursue
It too tensely. It will suck the life out of you
If you do it, and you will have nothing to show
For the struggle in all of the work that you do.

There’s an attitude of mind which may be compared
To a clenched fist, a knitted brow, set teeth… and this
Kind of attitude cannot bring any success.
What it will do is make you ill because of stress.
If you play your life like a game then you won’t miss
Opportunities which with others can be shared.

Beyond your wildest expectations you’ll succeed
If you treat your work as fun. The difficulties
Are all part of the game. Laugh at annoyances.
The whole picture will change as your mood enhances
Your becoming. Eventually you’ll find ease
In your work as the tension within you is freed.

Cradled In Kindness

Jul21

“So, describe a moment when you experienced
True and pure grace and you knew it” was the request.
She was quick in responding. She knew right away
How to answer. She had wonderful things to say
About one Muslim woman and at the behest
Of the requester only truth would be dispensed.

After her horrible divorce she got away
From it all to an island in Indonesia
As she spent time recovering from depression.
There was some deep emotional work to be done
In seclusion and silence. Perhaps amnesia
May have helped to mitigate the utter dismay.

When she felt better she would each day walk around
The island. It was tiny. The village was poor.
What they fished for that day was what people would eat.
Everyday one certain Muslim woman would greet
Her by smiling and touching her heart. To endure
Existence, somewhere in the heart love must be found.

The woman in this true story got very sick
With food poisoning. For several days she could
Not take her daily walk, but the Muslim woman
Had a feeling that something was wrong. She began
To search throughout the village hoping that she would
Find the sick woman. Her caring was fantastic.

When she found this sick woman, she left then came back
With some food and fresh water. Her kindness caused her
To sob deeply as the Muslim woman cradled
Her in her arms. Nothing of her love was withheld.
She’s now her face of Islam. What did here occur?
In this story is there a whole lot to unpack?

Ask For The Miracle

Jul21

Wanting something so badly that I find the need
To pray strongly, I know that a strong resistance
I’m creating. It doesn’t help me reach my goal.
I can feel what I want from the depths of my soul.
If the feeling is negative then there’s no chance
Of a blessing. I cannot make doubting my creed.

God’s the same yesterday, today, and forever.
With a miracle working God who’s able to
Do more than I could ever imagine, all things
Are possible. The reason my happy heart sings
Is because I’ve adopted this clear point of view.
My relationship with God I cannot sever.

What seems impossible to me is within the
Power of God to understand. When I can’t think
Of an answer God gives it to me right away.
Let the miracle take place in my life today.
Give me guidance when I seem to be on the brink
Of disaster. Let happiness come unto me.

Help me make my decisions in full clarity
Of the role God would have me play. Protect me from
My own selfish behavior. Let me see the light
In the wrong that I’ve done so that I’ll make it right.
Let the day have a richly meaningful outcome.
May the peace of God’s presence descend upon me.

Love One Another

Jul20

It’s to Love One Another. The reason to be
In existence is none other than to become
Well acquainted with loving. For all humankind
To behave as if we’re all of one common mind…
It’s a concept that we mustn’t shy away from.
We’re commanded to do so by the almighty.

As we Love One Another, we make not a bond
Of love, rather we let it be a moving sea
Between the shores of our souls. We fill each other’s
Cup but drink not from one cup. As loving occurs,
Spaces in our togetherness do let there be.
Heaven’s winds dance within them into the beyond.

Giving one another of our bread, we eat not
From the same loaf. So joyously we sing and dance
Together but we let each other be alone
Like the strings of the lute. Each one is on its own
But to the same music each quivers. Not by chance
Does the sound produced make most people hot to trot.

Give your hearts, but not into each other’s keeping
For only the hand of life can contain your hearts
And stand together, yet not too near together
For the temple will not stand in heavy weather
With its pillars too close. It takes minuscule smarts
To know what kind of karma oneself is reaping.

Preparing For The Day

Jul20

I’m extremely pleased to be here. I’m eager for
What is coming next. I shall begin this new day
In alignment with all that I want to take place
Throughout it. I’ll rely on the infinite grace
Of the universe. Everything will go my way.
I’ll receive what I’m wanting as I ask for more.

Sometimes I feel like I’m being headed away
From the details of my dreams, but that’s not the case.
The details are important but generally
I know that they will fill in eventually.
It’s not like I’m preparing to run a big race
Yet I cannot just let things occur as they may.

I’ll get into the nitty gritty of what I’m
All about because it matters to me and to
Everyone I encounter. Moving energy
To my best advantage I can do easily.
Unequivocal knowledge of what I can do
I possess, and I’m making good use of this time.

I remember that it’s all about attraction.
My point of it is how I feel in the moment.
In sublime nonresistance I now can relax
And as this wonderful day reaches its climax
I’ll be the master of every single event.
I shall end this day in complete satisfaction.

Receiving The Movie

Jul19

What I visualize sometimes out of the blue
Is the sun as my heart in a spinning vortex
Of pure love and abundance. Everything is there.
It feels stable, indeed I become more aware
That the world’s problems are not so hard and complex
That love cannot resolve them. I know that it’s true.

Moving into a segment of meditation
I can feel the connection again. I adore
The feeling of alignment. I like Receiving
The Movie. There’s no harm done in my believing
In its coming. I want to be open to more
Reception of what isn’t of my creation.

I expect to get into that place where something
Will occur to me. I can’t receive and project
At the same time. I’m in the receiving mode now.
I have asked for the Movie, now I must allow
It to happen, but it’s something I can’t expect.
It would be nice if it would commence happening.

I love being in that place of not worrying.
I’m eager to watch the Movie if there is one.
If there is, I’ll enjoy it. If not, that’s okay.
What’s most important is that I’ve learned how to stay
Pretty much in alignment, and in the long run
I’ve a better understanding of everything.

On Being A Teacher

Jul19

A teacher is someone who can share with others
Life experience. It’s of tremendous value
To the student and teacher. One who’s more aware
Of the laws universal and who would like there
To be positive change is the one who will do
What it takes so that maximum learning occurs.

There’s a deep centered willingness to apply the
Laws to life ‘til there’s a consistent perspective
Of the goal having been accomplished already.
Things are moved forward by holding on steadily
To what’s known until the universe has to give
What‘s been asked for with passion and humility.

People don’t care how much you know until they know
How much you care. They can pick up your vibrations
Then pass judgement upon them. Your understanding
Of the nature of folks is perhaps everything
Necessary to develop good relations
Between teacher and student. Each lesson must flow.

Co-creating is done simply for the pleasure
In the doing – not saving the world or fixing
Something broken. The key is in looking forward
Where only possibilities can be explored.
You can start off immediately by nixing
Any thought that stops you from claiming your treasure.

Jul18

All I know about living is that I want More
Of the good times. The More excited I become
About life, the More wonderfully it treats me.
Am I close to fulfilling my reason to be?
That can’t happen because there will always be some
New adventure. There’s always something More in store.

I’m continually asking for More, so I’m
Never going to be done. I can’t truly be
Forever fulfilled. I can just be up to speed
With my asking. I’ll never have all that I need
To fulfill me. Therefore I can live happily
Ever after. I can stay content all the time.

What it’s called is alignment. It is or is not
In the moment depending upon how well I
Am connected to my Source of empowerment.
I must ask and there’s nothing on earth to prevent
My receiving. I’ve tapped an enormous supply
Of exuberance. I’ve found it helps me a lot.

In spirit’s union with this physical body
There’s perfection of balance. I put myself in
Positions where new insights are born within me.
There’s no place quite like this time space reality.
What a wonderful journey my whole life has been
And shall be. I want More of what’s coming to me.

Looking Forward

Jul18

Beneficial it is not to look at the past
Generally because it contains memories
That I don’t want intruding on my here and now.
Even though there are good ones somehow I allow
The bad ones to upset me. I cannot with ease
Sort them out. The ill feelings I don’t want to last.

It’s like when you go back home for a holiday.
You feel yourself reverting to how you felt when
You lived there in your childhood. You’re suddenly there
In the past. You become more consciously aware
Of the issues you had then. To go there again
Isn’t helpful because the present you betray.

You vibrate where you look. If you look at something
That’s unpleasant and stay there, then you’ll vibrate to
That very situation. More bad thoughts will come.
Pretty soon you will feel like you’re under the thumb
Of the devil. Yet you are the only one who
Can deliver your freedom from what’s happening.

Pull yourself back to the present. Looking Forward
From the present will anchor you. Vibrating there
By daydreaming for example puts you where you
Can do anything that you set your mind to do.
For the future is what you’re wanting to prepare.
Be more interested in what’s to be explored.

Knee Jerk Reactions

Jul17

Wouldn’t it be terrific if news reflected
Accurately what’s going on? Wouldn’t it be
Really nice if all the pleasant things taking place
In the world the news networks would put in the face
Of the public? Am I living in fantasy?
If so, then I should probably be elected.

I would like to believe that what I feel is true.
If there were much more good news compared to the bad
Then the bad news would be just a blip on the screen.
Only happy stories of living would bee seen.
Can I shoot such a rocket from my own launchpad?
Are there others who feel just the way that I do?

If every chance I get I practice wellbeing
Then if there’s something going on that triggers me
It’s not such a big factor in my overall
Sense of being. In fact, it’s such a very small
Percentage of the big picture. I finally
See the way that my inner being is seeing.

In this world no such thing as perfection exists.
There will always be contrast. Life will always be
On the verge of becoming what it will become.
The emotional triggers we can’t escape from,
But we can learn to live life with more clarity.
Then we’ll deal more appropriately with its twists.

Life On Planet Earth

Jul17

Four point six billion years ago earth came to be.
In that time it’s become a hospitable place
For all life. There’s no other planet of its kind
In this part of the galaxy. Here you will find
A uniqueness unfathomable to embrace
In its fullness. Its wonder anyone can see.

Sometimes there’s more connection; sometimes there’s much less
With the earth for we humans. We bother too much
With things not that important. We waste energy
Focusing too much on spirituality.
At the same time we seem to be way out of touch
With a loving solution to lack of progress.

We are grounded. We don’t have to worry if we
Are or are not. Our physical bodies maintain
Our connection to earth. We’re made of energy
And the earth is also, so it’s easy to be
In alignment. So much from the earth we can gain
By knowing the earth as spirituality.

Things that we’ve all been asking for is tended to
By the forces that create worlds. Life here on earth
Is a mixture of unyielding love and contrast.
Much more dominant is love and it will outlast
Everything. It’s a place of misery or mirth.
Happiness while on earth is decided by you.

Is Love The Ultimate Feeling?

Jul16

There’s no end to the momentum of connection.
Does it matter at what point you’ve entered into
An agreement with destiny? Your happiness
Is exploding. It’s something you want to express
To the universe. Your cherished dream has come true.
There’s nothing in your heart but love and affection.

It makes you feel invincible. You’ll find a way
To get through difficulties with relative ease.
You have the sudden courage to do things that you
Thought for some reason you were not able to do.
Your focus now is all about wanting to please
The object of your feelings all day every day.

A better version of yourself you have become.
You’re eternally grateful, more loving, and kind.
Things you used to fear you do not fear anymore,
Much unlike the uneasiness you felt before.
Since you’ve fallen in love you’re more able to find
Peace of mind. You know now where such blessings come from.

A hopeful romantic love will make out of you.
It gives you the hope that things will always work out
For the better. It opens the door to a new
Way to see life, and it is the ultimate view
One can have. It’s the best feeling beyond all doubt.
All the trouble to get there is worth going through.

It’s Not The Other Person

Jul16

We are all co-creators with Source Energy
And among one another. It feels easier
To create something that doesn’t have anything
To do with another person. Understanding
That you have control over all that will occur
In your life, you’re prepared to live life happily.

You decide to become a vibrational match
Then that experience or object comes to you.
That feels cleaner and easier because you feel
Not another opposing you. The most ideal
Situation is when you create something new
When alone while with all distractions you detach.

There’s never another person opposing you.
It’s always a piece of you that isn’t aligned
With your true self. You can’t assign attributes to
Other people then use them to block your own view
Of the path least resistant and true peace of mind.
Everything happens in response to what you do.

You have much control over what you reflect back
From a circumstance. It’s up to you to decide
To stay focused on what you want. Don’t give away
Your power to an argument. It’s best to stay
Clear of it absolutely. You can’t be denied
What you want when you keep your vibration on track.

Humor And Fun

Jul15

The effectiveness of humor is about the
Surprise factor which is all about knowing where
Your are always. Your timing is right on the mark.
If you want to be funny you can put some spark
In your humor by being consciously aware
Of the place where your audience happens to be.

In this world filled with hardships everyone faces
Unique struggles catered to our lives. Amid all
Of the chaos, the best advice is not to take
Life too seriously and give yourself a break
From it all with some laughter and right off the wall
Silliness. Negativity it erases.

Being funny has nothing to do with being
Able to see the lighter side. Being funny
Means providing fun or causing amusement or
Laughter. Someone who’s funny is hard to ignore.
But a sense of humor is the ability
To experience laughter which is quite freeing.

Having a sense of humor and being funny
Are both important. Humor helps us to release
Stress and tension. It helps to create memories
That are wonderful. It can even cure disease.
It’s the delicate balance between war and peace.
The best humor happens unintentionally.

Influence Versus Assertion

Jul15

It’s been said that you can catch more flies with honey
Than with vinegar. Does this imply that the flies
Favor honey? I know what is meant by the claim,
But it’s cumbersome. People come up with some lame
Little tidbits to help us to become more wise.
Can one wonder what vinegar does for the bee?

What this saying means is that there’s no assertion
In a universe based on attraction, therefore
You can influence someone but you cannot be
The creator of another’s reality.
By your visualizing you can achieve more
In the way you communicate with everyone.

Find your power. You don’t know what it is until
You find your alignment with who you really are.
Your power of influence cannot be denied
When with your inner being you’re truly allied.
When you witness your power you’re not very far
From being able to share with others goodwill.

Are you feeling your power? Can you recognize
That a general daydream about someone who
You find difficult can change things for the better?
Your influence can be an awesome pacesetter
For the people in the vicinity of you.
On this power you can fully capitalize.

Cellular Communication

Jul14

All the cells of your body know just what to do
To maintain your wellbeing. They communicate
Well with each other also with Source Energy.
In this way they’re intelligent and they can be
Of immense value to you when you’re feeling great.
They do all that is needed to benefit you.

Your cells are offering requests and receiving
Responses directly from broader perspective.
But it’s possible for you to focus on things
That are bothering you. Enough static this brings
To your cells’ clear reception that thier objective
Is defeated. Good health may beyond retrieving.

You cannot speak their language. It’s much too obscure
To be understood by you. So talk to them in
General terms. If you try to get specific
You frustrate yourself and continue to be sick.
As you practice talking to them you will begin
To feel change, then less suffering you will endure.

Step back from the specifics. Focus on something
Different altogether. In doing so you
Introduce less resistance. Get out of the way
Of your cells’ rightful asking. In good health you’ll stay.
It may not be the prescription that you’re used to
But good health and a feeling of peace it will bring.

Reflection And Momentum

Jul14

Like a mirror reflects everything, daydreaming
Shows you what you most cherish. It has momentum
And enormous potential for becoming real.
You continue doing it as it makes you feel
Powerful. It’s where your creative flair comes from.
It’s the answer to what can be unbeseeming.

The vibrational stance from which people reflect
Is important. If you’re under the influence
Of your true self, then daydreaming is a good thing,
But if not, only hellish nightmares it will bring.
Either way the experience is quite intense.
What you place your attention on you can expect.

The mind can be of value but not always so.
When you’re under the influence of something bad
Like a long past injustice, your thinking will be
Not of dreams but of bitterness and misery.
But your Source can turn out to be your best comrade.
It can help you to get only good thoughts to flow.

Reflection is about momentum. Momentum
Is about focus. What you reflect on has to
Do with your vibrational stance. What’s becoming
Your reality can be a wonderful thing.
More and more as you access the best part of you
You prepare for the magnificent times to come.

Can Everyone Segment Intend?

Jul13

The process whereby you define your intentions
For the next segment of your day is called Segment
Intending. It’s a way of pre-paving what you
Want to happen. Each part of your day is a new
Point of focus. The process is meant to prevent
Unintended things happening. It helps you tons.

It forces you to make the most of this moment
And to line up your thoughts to what you most desire.
More peaceful moments it allows you to create
Through the day. It keeps you in a positive state
Of alignment. The day that you want will transpire.
You’ve control of it all through your conscious intent.

It helps you to focus your attention on the
Here and now and to recognize that your power
Is in this present moment. Deliberately
Intending gives you confidence and clarity.
The benevolent universe wants to shower
The next segment with all that will make you happy.

The more you take the time to pre-pave the more you
Are aligning your energies with the future.
The path of least resistance it helps you to find.
It is beneficial to all of humankind.
Segment Intending is the best way to ensure
Satisfaction in everything you have to do.

Happiness Chooses You

Jul13

Evidence of alignment or trying to hard?
Which one is it? You could make it ‘til you fake it,
But that never works because you’re just pretending
To be happy. The message you end up sending
To the universe is of little benefit.
Your concealing the truth keeps you always on guard.

Happiness comes from within. It cannot come from
Anywhere else. Your inner being loves every
Bit of whatever you are. It’s others who may
Find you wanting, but don’t listen to what they say.
To your true self you’re wonderful. When you agree
All the blessings of happiness to you will come.

Be as happy as you can be and let that be
Quite enough. You need not manifest anything
Other than the good feeling. Then you will attract
Abundance and wellbeing. When you’ve made contact
With you true self the universe to you will bring
Many blessings. It’s easy to live happily.

You can choose to be happy, but often you may
Find it difficult. It means that you’re not happy.
Wait until you feel then give it a try.
You don’t find happiness. It finds you, which is why
It’s better to attract happiness consciously.
Do appreciate all the good that comes your way.

About The Moon

Jul12

Planets spin in their orbits in proximity
To each other. It’s such a feat of perfection
By the infinite universe. Provident care
Does it have for us. We become fully aware
Of this truth as we come to find our connection
With the spiritual part of reality.

How the moon came about is of interest to
Certain people who in their close observation
Of predictable cycles seek reassurance
That the universe didn’t just happen by chance.
Some believe that it is of divine creation.
That happens to be my personal point of view.

From a broader perspective there are powerful
Minds of wellbeing focused on the wellbeing
Of us all here. There’s no need to worry one bit.
All that happens to earth is for its benefit.
There are omnipotent forces overseeing
Our evolving. They are angels dyed in the wool.

If planets start to wobble then something will come
To correct the imbalance. The wobble will cause
A deliberate asking. The culmination
Of the asking is how all creation is done,
And it’s all according to unshakable laws.
The spiritual is where all blessings come from.

Tapping Into Other Inner Beings

Jul12

People are made of spirit essentially so.
We have bodies but they’re just the vehicles for
Interacting with this time space reality.
Human beings are therefore a dichotomy
Of magnificence. Our work here is to be more
Than we are now. The purpose of life is to grow.

Inner beings are our spirits. Each has access
To all others, which means if we can tap into
Our own spirit then we have the ability
To communicate with others psychically.
Your connecting in this way can benefit you
And all others and can lead to your happiness.

The emotional scale determines how far we
Are from our inner being. So no matter where
We may find ourselves we can get to a new place
Where we are more receptive to infinite grace.
All it takes is a willingness to be aware
Of your spirit and trust in it wholeheartedly.

When you’re tuned into your inner being you will
Receive impulses also flashes of insight
Telling you there are others in contact with your
Inner being. You can be absolutely sure
That what you get from your inner being is right.
It takes no time at all to develop this skill.

An Approach To Healing

Jul11

We can talk about health and healing in a way
That’s focused more on wellbeing than on illness.
What prevents your patients from tapping into their
Vast potential is something considered with care.
Many health issues are caused by diet and stress.
Your belief in their wellness you want to convey.

When you truly believe in their potential, you
Can communicate well your positive intent.
A special kind of focus is needed when they
Want to talk about their illness. You need to stay
Resolute in believing in their improvement.
You must be excited about the work you do.

While you’re paying attention to only what they
Can become, you might ask them how long they want it
To go on. If they want to perpetuate the
Ill condition you must accept that they are free
To do so. But if they want your full benefit,
It’s then easy to get them to see it your way.

You’re doing a great service. Your inner being
Knows where you are in relationship to what you
Want to see manifested. It guides you around
Any resistance offered. Within you is found
The awesome gift of healing. This isn’t a new
Or particularly unique way of seeing.

Too Much Daydreaming?

Jul11

Can my daydreaming get to a place where I may
Be living too much in a world of fantasy?
I suspect people think that I’m lazy and vain.
How on earth can I ever expect to attain
What I dream of? Well, the answer is, easily.
In a state of allowing I happily stay.

Whether too much or not enough, the decision
Is made by the daydreamer. There’s some resistance
If I must ask the question. Deep inside I know
That the world I imagine is the way to go.
I would daydream forever if given the chance,
And there’s no interference with getting things done.

A daydream is a focus. All focus is good
If it brings about good feelings. My attention
To what pleases me is what is most productive.
Life can be wonderful if I’m willing to give
More attention to my grand inner dimension.
I am perfectly free to daydream as I should.

I am less likely to bring resistance into
The equation than if by my observation
Of reality I unconsciously allow
The prevailing vibration to enter my now.
Absolute control I have of my creation.
I’m excited by all that I can make come true.

The Manifestation Cycle

Jul10

I know that my life causes me to ask for more.
That’s a given. I can’t stop it from happening.
This physical environment elicits from
Me personal decisions. While beating my drum
Of uniqueness, I can manifest anything
I desire. It’s a wonderful world to explore.

After I’ve done my asking, unseen forces will
Gather all the cooperative components
Necessary. I don’t have to do anything
Further after I have done the work of asking
Except stay in a state of receptive suspense
Meaning that my work now is to kick back and chill.

When things start manifesting the thrill is immense.
Confidence in the power that I have to be
A creator increases. Trusting the process
Replaces any angst with a fresh eagerness
For the challenge of bringing what satisfies me
Into being. The process makes practical sense.

Once I’ve mastered this elegant trick I’ve become
More able to cope with life when it takes a turn
For the worse. When it happens I don’t get upset.
It’s just a moment in time that I’ll soon forget.
There’s nothing like the ability to discern
Satisfaction, which is where all blessings come from.

The Nonphysical Connection

Jul10

Most people rely on others for their advice.
We depend on our parents for security
When we’re young. We seek guidance and leadership from
Our elected officials. We want it to come
With insight into our current reality.
Often one who’s a leader must pay a high price.

Almost everyone looks for their connection where
They won’t find it. It isn’t with society
Nor with other people who you happen to know
And respect. They are human and don’t always show
Their best side to the public. They don’t clearly see
The big picture. It’s not always that they don’t care.

Until you begin looking for your connection
Where it really is, you’ll not be able to find
The comfort and security you most desire.
It’s amazingly simple. It doesn’t require
Any effort. Your aim is to quiet the mind
So that you enter a state of deep reflection.

The Nonphysical Connection naturally
Is available to everyone. We are one
With all that is nonphysical. It is the Source
Of all guidance. It is the omnipotent force
Of creation. You are there when you have begun
To receive information nonphysically.

Happily Ever After

Jul9

Many of my questions have been answered just by
My believing that things always work out for me.
Life is richly fulfilling. When I walk into
A brand new situation the things people do
To acknowledge my presence is absolutely
Energizing. I’ve no reason to wonder why.

I know I’m an uplifter. I’ve always been one
Who enjoys making others feel happy and whole.
Bad news doesn’t upset me because I don’t hear
Anything that contains the vibration of fear.
Love and happiness are at the heart of my soul.
Every day is another adventure begun.

Is it hard to imagine life being this way?
It can be such for anyone. Heaven on earth
Is available to everyone who believes
That the meek and caring person is who receives
Holy gifts from the Spirit. The one who has mirth
Has much to look forward to each and every day.

Just like the ending to a children’s fairy tale
Or a romantic novel, from then onwards and
Forever, happiness pervades. There cannot be
Any way to live but to do so Happily
Ever After. Our purpose here is to expand.
We’ll never get it all done; therefore we can’t fail.

Feeling Good Stories

Jul9

If someone comes up to you and starts telling you
About all of their troubles in vivid detail,
You might feel somewhat put upon. You’ll listen to
Their unfortunate story, then you will feel blue
Having heard it, and thoughts of concern may prevail.
You feel stuck because there’s nothing for you to do.

By the same token, if someone comes up to you
With an uplifting story, then you’re energized
And delighted to hear it. You want to hear more.
The excitement of others is what you adore.
Telling positive stories therefore is advised.
Take full advantage of what you know to be true.

Tell your story the right way so that others will
Be uplifted which means tell it the way that you
Would have it be told to you by someone who knows
All the good things about you. Forget about those
Imperfections you nurture. The world takes its cue
From your story and from your story telling skill.

Your story can affect others in a good way
Or a bad one depending on your vibration.
Keep it upbeat and ready to take on contrast.
It does no good for you to adhere to your past
Tribulations. Take into consideration
All the wonderful things that can brighten your day.

A Question About Karma

Jul8

If I don’t live a good life, I will pay the price
In a future one or in the time remaining
In this present one. This causes me great concern
Because I know that I’ve many lessons to learn
About life still. I have no hope of regaining
Any grace. The truth is that I haven’t been nice.

Karma means ‘action’ or ‘work.’ The body and mind
Create karma, and the law of cause and effect
States that consequences for my actions must be
Realized. The whole thing scares the hell out of me.
I’d been given a lot of chances to correct
My mistakes, and by now, the courage I can’t find.

So how does the Law of Attraction fit in here?
My inner being is always looking forward
To all the possibilities for my success,
But right now my life seems like an absolute mess,
And the harm I’ve done to others can’t be ignored.
I’m a loser, and that’s why I’m riddled with fear.

Now I’ve talked myself into a ragged dead end.
Does it help to have come here? It does if I can
Find in it some assurance that I’m still worthy
Of existence. My choice is to live happily.
It is up to me only to follow that plan.
To be redeemed of my sins is what I intend.

Too Much Distraction?

Jul8

The onslaught of technology leaves in its wake
Generations of people with nothing to do
But respond to society through devices.
Confusion may be one of the highest prices
To be paid for connection. Your attention to
All the input can sometimes be a big mistake.

Are there times when distraction can be a good thing?
Yes. When you’re not lined up with your inner being
Then distraction is helpful. It takes you away
From the thing that is causing you stress and dismay.
See the way that you inner being is seeing.
Clarity will result from your refocusing.

So instead of calling it distraction, call it
Being focused when it feels delightful to you.
If you’re lined up with your inner being, focus.
If you’re not then distract yourself. Give an a-plus
To yourself for having done what you need to do
To stay mentally and spiritually fit.

Not too far off your course can distractions take you
If you’re conscious of how each is making you feel.
If it doesn’t feel wholesome, then leave it alone.
You can rely on what forever has been known
To be most beneficial and most ideal.
Focusing is something you can happily do.

Getting Over A Relationship

Jul7

“What has been put asunder will never again
Come together. How painful this truth is for me.
I’ve tried everything but I can’t get over this.
I recall with much sorrow the laughter and bliss
That we shared. My life has become a tragedy.
I wish I could return to the way things had been.”

The dilemma is common. The pain is immense.
There’s a present tense active dynamic at play
That you can’t walk away from. It’s hard to let go
And forget about all the good you’ve come to know
Through your coming together. You must find a way
To recover from the emotional expense.

Every relationship is eternal. A lot
Of what you really wanted came as the result
Of that relationship. You want to find a way
To get from the experience all that you may
That will help you and perhaps even catapult
You into feeling better. A joke this is not.

People feel incomplete unless they have someone
To be happy with. That’s not what you’re looking for.
With your inner being you want companionship.
Then you’re guaranteed to have a much better grip
On your love life. There’s no need to say any more
About this, so embark on the new path begun.

Fear Of The Non-Physical

Jul7

What is meant by nonphysical is energy
Without means of perception. It’s pure consciousness
With no substance, therefore it can only be known
Through vibration. To the spirit within it’s shown
In those times when we’re filled with extreme happiness.
It’s the sole reason that the physical can be.

Fear can enter the picture because the unknown
Is uncertain. There cannot be true clarity.
There are many traditions that generate fear
Without meaning to do so. What people may hear
May be misinterpretation. What many see
Is their being stuck in some kind of twilight zone.

We cannot know except for what others tell us
About things of which they haven’t experienced,
So we don’t know much about the truth as it were.
Many people are fearful of what might occur
After death. Still other people can’t go against
Their practiced belief systems which they must discuss.

Lots of people think they need to get away from
All the demons, but they keep on taking control
Of our minds and behaviors. The demons aren’t real.
How we interpret things determines how we feel
About them. What becomes of the bodiless soul?
It returns to its place of infinite freedom.
