Free Forever

Elemental Escape

The universe is always delivering to
You what your pattern of vibration is. You can
Let real life hypnotize you into looking at
It as it is then training your focus on that.
Your vibration has to be more important than
Anything else. It’s the powerful part of you.

Most people offer all of their vibration in
Response to what is going on now. They look at
It and offer a vibration then get the same
Which they look at. It becomes a sick cyclic game
Played against oneself. What kind of living is that?
If there is a solution where does one begin?

Making peace with what’s happening in your life now
May be the best solution. By surrendering
Your resistance you let go of that which keeps you
From your clarity, wealth, and wellness, and a new
Sense of keen understanding about life will bring
All the goodness that your vibration will allow.

Those you thought were depriving you of the goodness
You deserve are the same ones who have provided
You a means for expansion. Thank them and move on.
Eventually the memory will be gone.
You will be Free Forever having decided
To clean up your vibration and trust the process.

Let Go Of Expectations

Life In Hands

The sun rising each morning, the next breath of air,
And your life getting better with each coming day
Are examples of things you expect to take place.
You believe you’re entitled to provident grace.
You expect things to turn out pretty much your way.
The vibration of wellbeing is everywhere.

You’re expected to have expectations about
Your children because our culture says that we must.
If your child doesn’t meet them then what do you do?
If you panic the worst of your dreams may come true.
Ultimately, you have to let go and to trust
In your child’s decision. You must let go of doubt.

For oneself it’s okay to have expectations
But to have them of others one must be aware
Of the potential of doing harm to someone
Out of your loving kindness. What you may have done
Is abusive. The person may not even care
For your help and it makes for bitter relations.

Let the door stay wide open but do not assume
That someone wants what you want. Be absolutely
Positive in your manner. They may not want to
Take the path that you’ve showed them. Don’t let that make you
A big failure. Just take a deep breath and be free
Of the issue and allow your live to resume.

Get Your Power Back

Right On

All the painful emotions like fear, vengefulness,
Anger, jealousy, and depression can rob you
Of your power. To external circumstances
It is wasted so very slim are the chances
Of having some left to do the things you want to.
You’ve tried to hide your feelings with little success.

You’ve come to know that when your personality
Is aligned with your soul’s purpose you then become
Authentically Empowered. This bottom line
Definition is provocative by design.
It’s a clue to where Authentic Power comes from.
Fully empowered is the way you want to be.

But most people don’t know what their soul wants so they
Let external circumstances and their mindset
Take control of them. The answer lies within you.
Your conscience lets you know which path for you is true.
You can meditate in order for you to get
Better insight to clear most of your doubt away.

Obstacles to aligning yourself with your soul
Are identified by noticing how you feel
In each moment. Be mindful of what your soul needs
To best serve you. You can be someone who succeeds
In connecting with your soul. Your life becomes real
As yourself becomes well integrated and whole.

Turning Up The Volume In Your Life

Knob Of Control

What’s the goal of an artist? It is to uplift
And evoke from beholders a better feeling
Than they had to begin with. They want people to
Get connected with their personal point of view.
People find what most artists do quite appealing.
They are able to get our consciousness to shift.

It’s a transcendent experience to behold
People in their full power. We all are living
Or striving to have the fullest expression of
Ourselves as human beings. The thing that we love
Above all others is the thing most worth giving
To the world. What you have to offer is  pure gold.

To crank up the volume in my life what do I
Need to know and do? With only your attention
To the notion of it happening you will see
It becoming the way that you want it to be.
Nothing matters that’s outside your comprehension.
You must do what you do without wondering why.

With the volume turned up fully in your life you
Are a master performer. Your audience will
Recognize you as someone whose vision is clear.
They will listen to you because they want to hear
What you have to say and you can savor the thrill
Of your world’s recognition in all that you do.

Free Yourself Of Negative Thoughts

Disgusted

There are many parts of your personality.
There’s the part who is scared and the one who protects
The one who is fearful. They both serve the ego.
There are others about which you don’t have to know
Except that when they’re unified in all respects
Then you will have evolved much spiritually.

To be well integrated is to be aligned
With your purpose in such a way that all the parts
Of your person are present and on the same page.
How you feel in the present moment is your gauge
Of success. The beginning of your journey starts
With a step into a different frame of mind.

Once you’ve made the commitment to free yourself from
That scared person inside you you’ll notice that there’s
A clear decision point at which your growth takes place.
Spiritual growth happens when you can embrace
The alternative that most effectively spares
You of misery. You don’t want to beat that drum.

Relax and lean away from that dastardly thing
That upset you. Give it room to pass right through you
Without stopping to fester inside of your mind.
With all parts of the personality combined
In one functional being you’re more able to
Deal with whatever in your life is happening.

Every Morning

Start Of The Day

Separate you are never from where you come from
Which is spirit. You always have that connection
And because you are a spiritual being
You’re aware that your spirit is overseeing
Everything that you’re doing. It overlooks none
Of your actions. To its nature you can succumb.

When you’re running with nature, your morning routine
Need not be all that structured. Your day can begin
As it does usually but being aware
Of the day’s doing is a different affair.
It’s like taking your brand new car out for a spin.
Consciously you’re creating your driving machine.

Ceremony and ritual help to create
Mindfulness. In silence you can do as you please.
Simple things that you do at the start of your day
Can be done with emotion. It will pave the way
To a day most fulfilling with relative ease.
Take the time you need to get yourself feeling great.

Like a life review when the soul leaves the body,
You can have your own day review as it begins.
You intend things to go well. You want to be kind
To yourself and all others. You want peace of mind
At the day’s end and just as this lovely earth spins
Perfectly in its orbit, yourself you must be.

The Neuroscience Of Mindfulness

Color Brain

Mindfulness is the practice of being aware
Of all the elements of the present moment
Without getting lost in the future or the past.
One can simply take in what’s perceived as contrast
And not be triggered by it. Be in the present
Where your power is. In inner peace you must care.

Mindfulness changes the neurobiology
Of fear by how the brain processes stimuli.
The brain stem and the limbic systems operate
Out of fear. They will too often try to dictate
What’s important in the moment and this is why
They will lead us right smack dab into misery.

What happens when we’re stressed is that information
Doesn’t reach the frontal cortex. It remains stuck
In that part of the brain that’s in survival mode
Constantly. And if no information is flowed
To the thinking brain then behavior runs amuck.
Mindfulness therefore is helpful to everyone.

The subcortical looping can be overcome.
Mindfulness strengthens the activation in the
Frontal cortex. If we can name the emotion
Then it’s deactivated. What will have begun
Is a process of rational activity
And the angst of the moment you will be free from.

It’s Not A Sin To Be Happy

Happy Family

Selfishness, pride, envy, greed… all of these can be
Considered to be terrible sins, but there’s no
Greater sin than not being happy. Life is too
Short to tiptoe through it while always feeling blue,
Suffering and complaining with nowhere to go
But deeper into conflict, fear, and misery.

Some may think that happiness is overrated.
Others say that it’s impossible to achieve.
Still others say that we created the concept
Which is why your impressions of it must be kept
Free of bias. In short, you must truly believe
In the happiness you’ve already created.

“Someday, somewhere – anywhere, unfailingly, you’ll
Find yourself, and that, and only that can be the
Happiest or the bitterest hour of your life.”

Who the hell wants to live their life in constant strife
When there’s every good reason to live happily?
We’re not put on the planet to act the damned fool.

Make the best use of your time. Care for your body.
It’s the temple of the Holy Spirit and it
Deserves your respect and affection. Be aware
Of the simple pleasures and find happiness there.
Breaking certain rules can be to your benefit
If with your inner guidance they do not agree.

Happiness Redefined

Love To The World

Many people have difficult conditionings
That create the illusion of being happy.
For example, by putting other people down
One prevents oneself from always wearing a frown
So it’s just a distraction that can easily
Be seen through unless one tries to complicate things.

In the workplace and at home the drama plays out.
“The way that I’m going to trust myself and feel
Good about myself is if I can just denounce
Someone else upon whom I’ll get others to pounce.”
Some scapegoating is required to block out what’s real.

Happiness isn’t even worth thinking about.

Compassion is a weakness to those who believe
That you’ll just lose your power and burn yourself out
If you care about others but it’s never true.
Happiness is a measure of how much you do
For others. Of its value there can be no doubt.
It’s the best trick in the world to have up your sleeve.

We can redefine happiness so that it’s not
Just going after pleasure. We have a deep sense
Of connection to something much bigger than we
Can imagine. It’s easy to live happily
With compassion without any hint of pretense.
How you feel about others should matter a lot.

Emotional Healing

Colorful Mind

What happens when we start asking the question when
We’re with someone, “What’s it like to be this person?”
Children rarely will do this. Their stories are all
About themselves because their worlds are rather small
As they should be. If they thought that it would be fun
They would probably do it again and again.

Divisions among people are made sorely clear.
Growing pains are the conscience of humanity.
Somewhere locked in our DNA so it would seem
Is the tendency to take things to the extreme.
Perhaps people think that they are more than worthy
Of supremacy yet we still grapple with fear.

When we pause and just ask the questions we begin
To release some resistance. “What’s it like to be
This person? What does this person need? Who are they
Deep inside? Who is looking through those eyes?”
You may

Gain some insight you can depend on completely.
There’s no harm in doing so and it’s not a sin.

We live with separations and don’t understand
One another and it’s getting worse by the day.
We don’t understand what the experience of
Difference is. It keeps us from learning to love
One another. Diversity won’t go away.
To ask the question is both radical and grand.

Why Mindfulness Is A Superpower

Natural Peace

When someone mistreats you, for example, lets say
Someone cuts you off in traffic, how do you take
The infraction? What would be your first reaction?
Are you caught in the grip of dissatisfaction?
Does the situation your connection forsake?
Does the incident mess with you throughout your day?

You respond due to habit. Immediately
You react to what’s happening. What happens next
Is a starburst of self-righteous thoughts and you feel
That it’s all about you and that you have to deal
With it all rather harshly. You may be perplexed
By how challenging your alignment seems to be.

There’s no buffer between the stimulus and your
Reaction, but with mindfulness you’d treat the same
Situation much differently. You would be
Able to just observe it. Emotionally
You are saved from dilemma and you can reclaim
Your connection with all that you’ve been living for.

Here’s one simple, serviceable definition
Of mindfulness. It’s the ability to know
What is happening in your head at any time
Without responding to it. A pleasure sublime
It is to respond wisely. You’re able to show
Yourself that mindfulness is the best solution.

About Happiness

Just Plain Free

A professor one evening had a meeting for
Some of his former students to see how they were
Doing out in the real world. He wanted to see
How much they had succeeded at being happy.
Are they all living the life that they would prefer?
All about their lives now he wanted to know more.

They each told him their stories. “I’m not doing well.
I can’t get that promotion. The harder I try
To achieve what I’m after, the more I’m let down.
I get through my days typically with a frown.
Sometimes while I’m at work I could break down and cry.”

Not a single one had a good story to tell.

So the professor said, “You all seem to be stressed.”
He provided them coffee and several cups
To choose from. Some were plain and some were elegant.
What he said to them next was very important.
Knowing that stress has to do with mental hangups,
It was a bit of wisdom he clearly expressed.

“You all picked the nice looking cups leaving behind
The plain looking ones, but the cup gives no value
To the coffee it’s holding. You want the coffee –
Not the cup. If you want to be truly happy
Care about what’s of value. The more that you do
Then the more success and happiness you will find.”

More Powerful Than Millions

Showing Strength

I feel blessed. I feel eager and ready for more
Of what life has to offer. Right now I’m tuned in,
Aligned with, and turned on to who I truly am.
I don’t follow any complicated program.
I’ve absolved myself of the original sin
Of unworthiness. Pleasure is worth going for.

I feel strong and intuitive. There’s not one thing
I can’t handle. I feel flexible in a way
That gives me proper balance. I feel really good.
What I want to happen for me is understood
By the provident universe. I want to stay
In this state where such good feelings are happening.

Now, what’s happened is that I’ve calibrated my
Vibration to a higher place where I can feel
Resonance with the words. So the very next day…
And the next, and the next, I’m out of my own way.
I stay focused on what in life is most ideal
To my purpose. Spiritual laws here apply.

When you write down your words you feel the resonance
And the power of them lighting up in your soul.
You hook up with your inner being in this way.
It will help you to put your best self on display.
May the awesome dynamic power you control
Be the force for improving your now circumstance.

Letting Go Of Struggle

Impossible Effort

Transformation doesn’t come through struggle. So why
Are people so addicted to crawling their way
To success? Transformation comes through awareness.
You stifle your awareness when you are obsessed
With your nose to the grindstone throughout every day.
Things will get more difficult the harder you try.

When you struggle your field of awareness will get
Narrower. As you let go of struggling your field
Of awareness will widen. That’s why you can be
At the beach on a warm sunny day peacefully
Taking in your surroundings, then all is revealed
Of the nature of spirit and there’s no regret.

Now, suppose there’s a friend of yours who happens by.
You get into an argument lasting a while.
During that time, you won’t hear the sound of the waves
Or the wildlife, because now the moment enslaves
Your awareness. You’re struggling in typical style
All because you and someone can’t see eye to eye.

When you lay back again on the beach and return
To your leisure, you will relax naturally
Without trying. You’ll feel the warm sun on your face
And the cool breeze. You’ll know that you’re in the right place
For alignment. Let go of struggle completely
Through a method that’s simple and easy to learn.

Satisfy Your Dreams

Breathe

Your body is responding primarily to
The content of your thoughts, and right here and right now,
It is benefiting from your positive view
Of your life. Let the fresh air invigorate you.
Let the fullness of each breath begin to allow
Your adventurous spirit to dream something new.

Your life is supposed to feel good to you, and you
Are meant to feel happiness in your life. You are
Meant to satisfy your dreams. Breathe in; then breathe out
All the mental clutter and the feelings of doubt
From the day before. What you’ve accomplished thus far
Is alignment. Breathing is all you have to do.

Physical wellbeing is flowing to you now.
Breathe in all your abundance. Breathe out negative
Belief structures. Your are doing extremely well.
By the way that you’re feeling you surely can tell
That your body’s responding. The more that you give
It attention, the more wellness you will allow.

Relax and enjoy the unfolding. Be aware
Of what’s happening to you and appreciate
What is now. Be most eager about what’s to come.
There’s no doubt that you’ll get immense benefit from
Breathing your way into a more positive state
Of being. About how you’re feeling you must care.

Say It Out Loud

Good News To Tell

No matter where you’re standing, if it doesn’t please
You then just remind yourself that it isn’t done.
Then take the easy emotional journey and
Show yourself that you’re able to take full command
Of this moment called Now. You can tell everyone
How you can handle contrast with relative ease.

Now is your point of attraction. Now is where all
Of your power is. Here you are and everything
Is actualizing all around you right Now.
Speak your mind to the universe but then allow
It to answer you. Know that your asking will bring
All the good things – the big ones as well as the small.

So your future experience you’re attracting
At this moment. Responding to your vibration,
The universe gathers cooperative
Components that are like it. Be willing to give
More attention to your vibration. You’ve begun
A crusade of magnificent benefacting.

Over time, what you give out is what you get back.
Imagine the resources that you allow to
Line up when you take the time to feel good right Now.
Be receptive and let the universe endow
You with blessings which Now perhaps are overdue.
Now is worth all the trouble of keeping on track.

Finding Ease

Nature Soft

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.

Totally Safe

Universal Protection

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.

Loosen Up!

Too Hard At Work

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.

Humor And Fun

Expressive Clowns

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.

Can Everyone Segment Intend?

Piecemeal Preparation

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

Smile

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.

An Approach To Healing

Medicinal Panorama

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.

Happily Ever After

Simple Treasure

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

Family Time

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.

Enjoying It

Joy Of Being

Bombs are bursting in air. I don’t need to know who
They explode for nor why indeed they do exist
In the first place. I’m not that good at history.
I’m detached from the troubles of humanity.
Much practice it has taken for me to resist
The temptation to nurture the negative view.

I enjoy life. I’m not always in a good mood
But I know enough now not to let myself get
Too far out of alignment. Right now I feel fine.
I feel as if I am causing the sun to shine.
To the world I feel that I’m a major asset
Thus my faith in humanity can be renewed.

I’ll use this moment in the most productive way
By staying elevated. I can do that by
Savoring the good feeling. It doesn’t require
A whole lot, but I must have a burning desire
To stay there so that I don’t even have to try
To be happy. It isn’t a high price to pay.

Life does not have to be all that complicated.
I know how to get happy and how to stay there
For a good while. There are many forms of success
But its truest measure is how much happiness
I can have and give others and how much I care
For the life up until now that I’ve created.

The Best Alignment Tool

Healthy Routine

Life is quite an adventure. There’s so much to do
And to be in the real world of getting things done
And of basking in all of your grand achievements.
You may have trouble managing all the events
Of your busy life, but you are the only one
Who can do it although it may bring stress to you.

The mind can be a wonderful tool for getting
To the bottom of most things. It analyzes
And sorts out the environment in such a way
That it can yield accomplishment, but you must pay
Close attention to your thoughts. All that arises
From bad thinking is something you’d be regretting.

Meditation is the best tool to get into
Alignment. There’s no question. It’s a surefire way
Of releasing resistance. If you are willing
To spend part of an hour you’ll find it fulfilling.
It is best that it’s done at the start of the day
Before yesterday’s upsets can get hold of you.

When you release thought you release resistance, and
When there’s no resistance your vibration rises.
You have broader perspective. Your daily routine
Is enhanced because you’ve developed such a keen
Awareness. It is the best of exercises
To clear the cluttered psyche so it can expand.

Can I Trust My Feelings?

Totally Satisfied

That I have an emotional guidance system
Is apparent, but how do I know that I can
Trust my feelings? Indeed they may be under the
Influence of hypnosis, voodoo, sorcery,
Or illness. It could be something much bigger than
My awareness. It could be something I’d condemn.

Trial and error leads to a keener awareness
But it takes longer and there’s unnecessary
Resistance to contend with. When I meditate
I feel much better able to cooperate
With spiritual forces that influence me.
To the world it’s my best self I want to express.

Streams of pleasant thoughts and guidance come on the heels
Of having quieted the mind. When I follow
That guidance there is always a payoff for me.
As I rid myself of resistance completely
Many blessings of the universe start to flow
Into my life. I can get used to how that feels.

If I’m not under the influence of my Source
Then what I do feels difficult. Passion I feel
When I’m lined up with my Source. I notice when I
Am aligned or not. I need not ask myself why
What I’m doing feels healthy or like an ordeal.
I am guided by a most benevolent force.

Pleasure In The Now

Loving Life

This incredible dream that you’re moving toward
Gives you pleasure. A feeling of utter delight
Overwhelms you. You know that it has to come true,
And you know there is nothing that you need to do
But to stay elevated. The future is bright.
It’s a dream that in any way can’t be ignored.

But we want to talk about the current pleasure
You are having because it’s the key to being
Receptive to what you want. If you’re accepting
The pleasure of this moment, then you’re offering
To the world your best self, and you’ll end up seeing
Things occur in your life way beyond your measure.

There’s a bunch of things that are screwed up in this world.
Should you focus upon them? Should you take a stand
With one side or the other while pushing against
Your opponent? In this way you get yourself fenced
Into one hellish corner. Stay out of the land
Of the livid. Your path will then become unfurled.

How do you align even more with what you feel
Is forthcoming? …By loving where you are right now.
…By your being satisfied and eager for more.
When you get out ahead of what you’re asking for
You give the universe the okay to allow
Blessings to rain upon you. Is this not ideal?

A Better Version Of You

Change Of Appearance

It’s a dream never ending. A beautiful scene
In a wonderful movie is co-creation.
Your concern is with being who you really are.
As momentum increases, you’re not very far
From alignment. You maintain a high vibration
As your guardian angels so often convene.

How can you be a better version of the one
Who is you incarnated? By not giving so
Much attention to it. Don’t think that you’re not there.
Your inner being would have you be more aware
Of yourself as magnificent. It’s good to know
That is stubbornly holds on to that opinion.

You can’t ask the question and receive the answer
At the same time. You can’t be the problem and the
Solution. The more you keep asking, the more you
Keep the answer form coming. Be receptive to
Intuition and insight. The more you can be
Happy with yourself, the more good things will occur.

Get your attention off yourself. Start looking for
Things that are praiseworthy, and when you find something
That delights you, you are being the whole of you.
You are better already. Believe that it’s true.
Be aware of the vibration you’re offering.
Look within. You will discover blessings galore.

Satisfaction And Conditional Vibration

Good Reception

It would be nice to just be zapped with the feeling
Of complete understanding that I can be, do,
Or have anything I want and without limit.
Life is supposed to be good. I should benefit
From the good I’ve created. I’ve come to a new
Way of knowing that seems to be more appealing.

If I can get closer to the understanding
That whatever I want I can have, then there will
Be a change in my life quite immediately.
The world will treat me better if I choose to be
Positive in my outlook, and I will fulfill
My desire for a big consciousness expanding.

I vibrate to conditions unconsciously so.
I observe things, then I offer a vibration
Because of what I’m observing. Then I get more
Of the sameness, but if I can vibrate before
The condition, then it becomes my creation.
I tell you this because it is good that you know.

Like a sculptor enjoys the process of molding
The clay, or the painter, the process of painting,
I cannot be frustrated or impatient that
It’s not done yet. I’m satisfied just working at
My creation. Is it not a wonderful thing
To witness one’s creation as it’s unfolding?

How Well Am Doing?

With Question

Do I have to ask the question if I feel good
Generally? I feel best when I am alone
Which means I don’t have much spiritual warfare
Going on within me. It means that I don’t care
What the score is. That information, if it’s known,
Perhaps would not uplift me as it damned well should.

There are things about others that irritate me
To the point where I must get away from it all.
I don’t beat myself up about it because I
Can’t do that much about it. Indeed if I try
To correct myself the improvement will be small.
I can say that with that much I can be happy.

I know by the way that I feel the answer to
My own question. My guidance system is working
As it should. When I feel negative emotion
I can know for sure that some work needs to be done
On my vibration. There may be bad thoughts lurking
Somewhere in the heart but there are things I can do.

One is not to shun the negative emotion.
It’s my guidance system letting me know something
Is the matter. It is the best indicator
Of how I’m doing. I’m an expert creator
Of happiness, abundance, and true wellbeing
In my life, and this could be said of everyone.

Breathing

Momentary Contentment

Do I know that I’m breathing? Sometimes I forget
That I’m doing so, then my body makes me yawn.
It’s a channeling. My inner being lets me
Know that I should slow down. Breathing happens to be
My wholistic addiction. I depend upon
All the breathing that’s not even happening yet.

The whole point of my breathing is to get into
Alignment with who I am. No special technique
Do I follow. I simply breathe in then breathe out.
Focus on respiration remains all about
Raising one’s vibration. Nothing else do I seek
Than a much better feeling and clear point of view.

The cork under water is being held there by
Some resistance. The cork’s natural tendency
Is to rise to the surface. If I can let go
Of what’s holding me under, I will get to know
Utter peace and contentment. I want to be free
Of resistance. My breathing no one can deny.

I breath all the time. There’s not a single moment
That I’m not breathing, and I’ve the ability
To focus on my breathing. My breath is my friend.
If I treat it that way it helps me to ascend
To the pinnacle of spirituality.
It requires not anyone else’s involvement.

Free From Negativity

Masks Of The Ego

It’s been said that no thought lives in your head rent free
And your thoughts cost you more than you may realize
In the moment. Thoughts of bitterness, resentment,
And revenge are the most costly to the extent
That they hijack your happiness. Your spirit dies
As you justify your feelings vehemently.

Every time you think about that person who wronged
You, that person steals your consciousness. Like your home,
Your mind only has room for so many thoughts, so
It is best that you take the high road and let go
Of the issue, lest you be caught in a syndrome
Of abject desperation that may be prolonged.

Don’t forgive to make someone else feel better or
Because it’s the right thing to do. Forgive for you.
Release your attachment to negativity
To make room for the thoughts that are absolutely
Beneficial. They are of tremendous value.
There will be many new horizons to explore.

When someone mistreats you, in the moment it feels
Like it’s all about you, but more often than not,
It’s about something over which you’ve no control.
Own whatever you can. Forgiveness makes one whole.
You can find relief from misery on the spot.
Take advantage of the only method that heals.

Mastery Of Life

Family Fun

I’m on top of the world. Life is going so well
That I don’t have to worry about anything.
My life is moving forward. I see through the eyes
Of the larger part of me. I now realize
All the wonderful things being happy can bring.
In a state of perpetual joy I do dwell.

I believe that the Law of Attraction helps me
By arranging cooperative components
Of my main point of focus into what is real
In the physical. It’s by the way that I feel
That I master my life, and it makes perfect sense
That it only gets better. My mood is the key.

In this moment, my quest is to identify
What I choose for my point of attraction to be.
I joyously watch the universe fill in all
The details, and I know that it’s right on the ball
Regarding what I ask for. Now I’ve become free
Of resistance. My focus is the reason why.

Would you call me delusional? If it’s seeing
The world differently than most others folks do
And more than most would want me to, then I suppose
You’re correct. But the most evolved part of me knows
Nothing but wellbeing from its broad point of view.
Fantastic is the life of this human being.

Going General

Natural Peace

Make the journey your goal, then you’re having success
Instantly, but if you make the destination
More important and you’re not there, you introduce
Resistance. All your efforting is of no use.
On the way to what you want, you want to have fun.
Letting go of the goal leads to your happiness.

Get your emphasis in the right place. It’s easy
To let go of the absence of what you wish for.
Look for things to be happy about on the way
To forever. It’s important for you to stay
In the state of receiving what you want and more.
You will get what you wish for eventually.

It helps if you go general. “I always get
What I want. It may take a while. Usually,
It has happened quite quickly. So I can expect
That it will happen this time. I have a direct
Link to the vortex of all that I’ve come to be.
I’m okay with it not having come to be yet.”

“I’m really good at this now that I understand
How the laws of the universe work, and I’m sure
That my vibration is in tune with my desire.”

With this attitude there’s nothing you can’t acquire.
On your journey you don’t want to take a detour
Into darkness. Of your life you are in command.

Do You Believe?

Close To Receiving

Do you know how to find just one thought that feels good?
Not so much in the moment? You do have control
Of your point of attraction. You have one, you know.
It’s what you focus on mostly and it’s also
A magnetic vibration – the heart of your soul.
You’ll feel better when some of this is understood.

Your emotional guidance system is for you
An asset of great value. It lets you know how
Far you are from your truest self so that you can
Make the proper adjustment. You do know more than
You may think, and you do have the wisdom right now
To choose not to continue with what isn’t true.

From a not feeling good place you can easily
Feel a little bit better by your choosing to
In the moment. You must be constantly aware
Of how you feel. It’s all about your taking care
Of yourself. It’s the easiest thing you can do
To stay as happy as you can possibly be.

The momentum of negative thought can be slowed
By going general instead of specific.
The reverse is true also. Increased momentum
Happens when thoughts are happy, and you will gain from
Getting more specific. There is no special trick
To remaining always in the positive mode.

You Are Choosing

Forward Momentum

Have I not chosen wisely by starting my day
Cursing some person out who I don’t even know?
Sometimes I can’t catch myself. I end up doing
Things that I’d rather not do. If I’m pursuing
Some righteous indignation, how far can I go
Before my sense of selfhood begins to decay?

I have got to choose better if I am to be
In alignment with my true self. I can become
Lazy before I’ve had breakfast. If I can stay
In high spirits at the very start of the day,
Then I’ll have accomplished something really awesome.
Maintenance of my vibration is up to me.

With each choice I make I’m creating momentum.
When I choose something, then I choose the opposite,
I get nowhere. I need to stay focused on what
My desire is, otherwise, I’m stuck in a rut
I achieve nothing when my energy is split.
There is some resistance for me to overcome.

Energy that creates worlds is available
To me all the time. It courses through me always.
How much am I allowing it to work for me?
If I keep reaching higher, in time I will be
Indestructible. Being happy always pays.
All I need do is keep my vibration stable.

Dissolve All Your Worries

Expression Of Worry

A concern is your in-the-moment focused thought
That there’s something the matter. Your inner being
Does not have the same thought that you do here and now.
The feeling it gives you, you don’t like anyhow.
Because your inner being is not agreeing
With your thought, in a world of confusion you’re caught.

No concern is legitimate. You’re focusing
Upon something and using it as your reason
To not line up with how your inner being sees
What you see as a problem. It never agrees
That there is one. It doesn’t have an off-season.
It cares not to play along with your suffering.

Most concern is habitual. People focus
On things that they don’t want happening to them, so
That becomes their attraction point. The universe
Will deliver more of the same or even worse.
People get so used to experiencing woe
That it’s the topic that they most often discuss.

There’s no reality anyone has to face.
You create it with your thoughts and feelings and by
Following the guidance that’s always within you.
Changing your focus will lead to a big breakthrough.
There’s nothing in the world you need to justify.
Do believe in your access to provident grace.

Shift Your Vibration

Vortex Focus

Where you are is where you are, and what you do now,
Whether you worry, are hopeful, or you complain,
Determines the direction of you in the stream.
If you’re fighting against it, everything may seem
To get screwy too often. It helps to abstain
From your battles so that happiness you allow.

You can view where you are optimistically.
Talk yourself back into remembering who you
Really are, which is pure positive energy.
You don’t have to justify your reason to be.
Let your heart be the only voice you listen to.
You know that you’ll find your place eventually.

While you can’t change your circumstance right now, you can
Change what’s happening three days or three weeks from now.
If you don’t change it for then, then right now will be
Carried forward into the same reality.
Just get happy because you already know how
To do that. It’s always a magnificent plan.

To where you are now you pay too much attention
So that you keep projecting ‘what is’ everywhere.
You have to change your most dominant vibration
To the one that will lead you to the creation
Of a wonderful life that is beyond compare.
Keep your focus upon the higher dimension.

Riding The Waves Of Contrast

Engaging The Wave

As life happens, sometimes things don’t go quite your way.
You may feel negative emotion due to it.
Contrast is by its nature a wonderful thing.
If it feels less than that, what may be happening
Is that you’re not perceiving the full benefit
Of the circumstance. You choose to be in dismay.

What makes contrast not feel good is choosing poorly.
When you choose differently from your truest heart,
Like when you find fault with someone, you are choosing
Rather poorly. You always will end up losing.
You can know that your truest self never takes part
In your battles. Only but the best does it see.

Diverging from your furthest most expanded you
Doesn’t feel good. There are times when you’re flying high.
Your feel coordinated. You have clarity.
Interactions with others are as they should be.
You’re in touch with your true self who is your ally.
It guides you to itself in everything you do.

Every thought that you have that’s contrasting does not
Have to feel bad. It can be most clarifying.
Even in an aligned state there’s some resistance,
But you do have the choice to stay stuck or advance
Through the process. It’s not all that terrifying
To make choices. Your attitude matters a lot.

No Matter How It Looks

Man In Tears

When I look at my troubled past, all I can see
Is someone who has taken too many wrong turns.
I’d call myself a loser, were it not a sin
To agree with most others. How can I begin
To make peace? This is the biggest of my concerns.
Does the universe find disappointment in me?

I’m not well and have never been. I can accept
That I may be dangerous to society,
But my inner being doesn’t see me that way.
It helps me to put up with myself through the day.
How I’ve been in the past matters so much to me
That at functioning here and now I am inept.

Things are always working out for me No Matter
How It Looks
at any point in time, and if I

Can accept this as truth and feel myself worthy
Of releasing my past, much better off I’ll be.
It makes no sense for me to keep wondering why
I evolved as I did. Screw the mental chatter.

I can think and feel, therefore, I can be aware
Of what happens because of it. I have control
Of my own thoughts and feelings. Things will be alright.
I am worthy of the good things in life despite
The perceived severe toxicity of my soul.
The relief is like taking a breath of fresh air.

Don’t Do What You Don’t Want

Satisfaction is what your inner being feels
All the time about who you are and about where
You are going. Satisfaction comes from one place.
Moving in the direction of what you embrace,
Just as your inner being does, will get you there.
Be open to the wisdom your true heart reveals.

You live in a world that has tried to motivate
You into doing things that you don’t want to do.
When you think about going to work do you feel
Satisfaction such that you’re overcome with zeal?
It would be a nice thing only if it were true.
When you think of vacation, you can hardly wait.

People try to control you by their demanding,
Whining, and complaining. Never do anything
You don’t want to do. It sets a bad example
For the rest of us. Do not let others trample
Any bit of your freedom. Your inner being
Is your source, your guidance, and your understanding.

You can’t motivate yourself, and you can’t demand
Of yourself to do anything. You will receive
Inspiration that will call you forward when you
Are resistance free. You can do what you want to
And not worry that there’s something you won’t achieve.
Let your inner being be the one in command.

Perfection

Perfect Cut

Like a huge uncut diamond is your true essence.
Do you need to be perfect in anyone’s eyes
But your own? Be aware of the God within you.
Don’t accept anyone’s negative point of view.
You live life as you want to when you realize
That you are of perfection way beyond expense.

You sift through the variety that life offers,
And you come up with personal preferences
About what you want. These preferences are heard
By the universe. It hears every single word
That you utter or think. There are no pretenses
Regarding your vibration to which all refers.

If you had not expanded to a new place, you
Would not feel the discord of your not going there.
All of the negative emotion that you feel
Is a lovely indicator that can reveal
What you may have forgotten due to lack of care
For the way you’ve been feeling. Your joy is come due.

Where you are is just perfect. You’re on a journey
That does not have an ending. There’s always going
To be a new perspective, and with it, contrast.
Let go of all the negative stuff from the past.
It’s no challenge for you to continue growing
In perfection throughout all of eternity.

Appreciate Who You Are

Emotional Flowers

This nation is conceived in original sin.
Slavery through gestation created a beast
Rather than a republic of civilized folk.
White supremacists war against those who are woke.
Civil War didn’t end. It has only increased
In severity. Our consciousness is of skin.

And since mine isn’t lily white, which side I’m on
Is made obvious for me. Should I be afraid
For my life or my freedom? This is a nation
That adores assault weapons and the creation
Of a living hell impossible to evade.
Will there be satisfaction when all hope is gone?

Enough of this sick story! If I’m to remain
In alignment with my source, I have to replace
This one with one of my own that doesn’t include
Anything that would adversely affect my mood.
Only those thoughts that uplift me I shall embrace.
By creating my own story I’ve much to gain.

I must be selfish enough to want to feel good.
If my focus is yanked away, I’ll readjust
Easily back to my story of how things are
And of who I am. This attitude is by far
One in which I can absolutely put my trust.
I appreciate expressing my humanhood.

All Is As It Should Be

Harsh Reality

Things are as they are, and I am where I am now.
Finding peace with the circumstance is challenging
When I feel just as sick as the world I live in.
If I had to I wouldn’t know where to begin
Comprehending behavior. If it were my thing,
How much hatred and suffering would I allow?

What would be a good mantra or affirmation
I could use to anchor my vibration to be
Uplifted? “All is well and is getting better?”
If I’m not right, it’s not one that I would prefer,
But I can find the words that are just right for me.
“It was bad, but it got better.” That’s a good one!

I can soothe myself in the same way that I’d try
To soothe anyone under any condition.
From my perspective, things are nowhere near alright,
But it’s possible for me to gain some insight
That will put me in a much better position
To make peace with the here and now. My health is why.

Whatever I’m living isn’t more important
Than that fact that it’s only an indication
Like the gas gauge that tells me I’m almost empty.
I don’t cry and ask, “What the hell’s happened to me?”
Indicators tell me that things ought to be done.
In each moment I can learn to find the right chant.

Everything Will Change

Feeling Good Break

What could I do right now? What could I focus on
That will make me feel better? The question is key
If I ask it correctly. Things are going well.
By the way that I’m feeling inside I can tell
That my life is almost where I want it to be.
Most of my negative feelings have up and gone.

To move myself as quickly as possible to
A place of complete happiness happens to be
The reason I’m alive. What can I do to sync
Up more fully with my spirit? Is there a link
Where I can communicate with it directly?
I suspect that there’s nothing that I need to do.

I find myself in that state every single day,
But it only last moments. If I can stay there
Long enough, then what happens is that there’s a change
In the way the world treats me. I don’t find it strange
That, at will, I can do this. I simply must care
More about feeling better the natural way.

I do it by my recognizing when I feel
Pretty good. Then I’ll milk it for all that it’s worth.
“Why does this moment feel good?” I get to explore
Everything about this moment that I adore.
With some practice I become accustomed to mirth.
Everything Will Change to what I think is ideal.

Stay In Alignment In Difficult Times

Windows Of Perception

I feel best when I have those moments where things that
Used to mess with me hugely do not anymore.
I can handle things quite well. Not much bothers me.
I believe meditation has helped me to be
More connected to spirit than I’d been before.
I am more discerning about things I look at.

But the question is, regarding the bigger things
That I have no control of, how can I remain
In alignment with spirit? The world and its woes
Are things I shouldn’t look at. They are but shadows
Of a vacant reality, so there’s no gain
In sustaining it. Only the happy heart sings.

It’s a difficult situation when someone
Who I love suddenly dies. The Source within me
Knows there is no death, and I can communicate
With those who are in spirit if I concentrate
On making the connection. I have to be free
Of emotional trauma before it is done.

Situations don’t have to control how I feel,
And I don’t have to blunder my way through the day
Unaware of my feelings. I get out ahead
Of the difficult issue by choosing instead
To selectively sift difficulty away.
In each moment I can find what is most ideal.

Life Can Cause You To Feel Better

Freedom And Joy

There are many more consciousnesses focused here
In this physical plane of existence than there
Are people on the planet. There’s quite a party
Going on all around us that we do not see,
But we know that it’s possible to be aware
Of the nonphysical if our hearts are sincere.

We summon the collective. Multifaceted
Is our nature. Consciousness needs not a body
Necessarily. It’s a continuous stream.
Our awareness of our bodies does make it seem
That we are separated. This happens to be
An illusion that the mind is constantly fed.

Things that happen to people that they can’t explain
Are the doings of those who are disembodied.
From that vantage point, they often communicate
With the ‘living.’ When we’re in a receptive state,
We are hip to their antics and don’t feel the need
To be cautious. In fact, there can be much to gain.

You don’t miss the water until the well runs dry.
In the same way, you do not miss your connection
To the whole of who you are until you have not
Had it for such a while that your spirit is shot.
Look upon your community with affection.
Wonderful things will happen, and you will know why.

Feel Better Always

Geometric Emojis

Contrast is, by its nature, a wonderful thing.
It gives meaning to life. You need not feel badly
In the midst of a difficult situation.
You have choices, but before anything is done,
Feel your way to a better place. Then you will see
Clearly the value the contrast is offering.

What makes contrast not feel good is choosing poorly.
When you find fault with someone and feel negative
Emotion overcome you, you’ve not chosen well.
It’s a fortunate thing when quickly you can tell
That it’s happening. It isn’t worthwhile to give
That feeling more attention than there needs to be.

Why go there and feel that way? What sense can it make
To stay stuck in an ornery disposition?
It takes determination to get yourself free
From the torment. You must vow to live happily.
Your dreams then have the chance to come to fruition.
Know how you want to feel with every breath you take.

The difference between asking and complaining
Is enormous. Before your thought gains momentum,
You decide that it’s going to be a request.
Nothing will come about if it’s wrongly expressed.
You can get used to beating the happiness drum.
Keep yourself aligned with what is joy sustaining.
