The Successful Life Journey

The happiest people are evaluating
And improving themselves. The unhappiest are
Usually evaluating and judging
Other people. There isn’t a lot happening
In their lives and in essence they’ve traveled quite far
Off their path. A tough life is what they’re creating.

Not everyone is meant to be in your future.
Some people are just passing through to teach you things
That you need to know. When someone walks out of your
Life then let them because they’re just making room for
Someone better. Your positive attitude brings
More fulfilling things to you. Of this do be sure.

Sometimes you just have to stay silent because no
Words can clarify what’s going on in your mind
Nor your heart. Sometimes you have to go it alone
But it can make you stronger. You cannot postpone
What you need to do when it’s so clearly defined.
In the midst of life’s contrast you’re able to grow.

People can say, “I love you,” but not everyone
Really means it so believe it when you see it –
Not when you hear it. Don’t make your life an ordeal
By your concerning yourself with how people feel
About you and, always be willing to submit
To your primary purpose which is to have fun.

Wholesome Living

Jul16

If you have the power to make someone happy
Then do it! The world needs more of that. When you choose
To forgive those who’ve hurt you, you take away their
Power over you. You can become more aware
Of their positive aspects as you’re the one who’s
Got control of your feelings most definitely.

Discipline yourself carefully. You must keep the
Promises you make to yourself so that you can
Trust yourself under difficult circumstances.
Being good to yourself increases your chances
Of success as you make happiness your game plan.
You can have things just the way you want them to be.

Reflection and the gaining of knowledge can be
Powerful. Without either then you’re powerless.
Caring what others think, living in the past, and
Fearing change are the poisons to all that you’d planned.
Speak the things of your heart that you need to express.
Take the time to appreciate wholeheartedly.

Change your life today. Don’t gamble on the future.
Your vibration is everything and this moment
Is you life. Find your joy within it and allow
Wellbeing to enter into your life right now.
So much leverage you have when feeling content.
Life can be for you healthy, serene, and secure.

Let Go Of Your Past

Jul15

The harder your past was the more beautiful your
Future will be. At life’s darkest moments you’ll see
The most clearly. Good things do come to those who wait
And suffer. Realize that it’s never too late
To move on. It may take time but it’s completely
Worth it to you that your circumstance you endure.

You have things you can count on – you, your health, and your
Achievements. Let these things about you resonate
Through your consciousness. Try to look for positive
Aspects of your life. Bless all there is to forgive
Then decide that a better life you will create.
Take advantage of all that you’ve been asking for.

Worrying doesn’t take away tomorrow’s woes
Nor the sins of the past but it does take away
Today’s peace. The more time you spend clinging to the
Past, the less likely your future turns out to be
Satisfying. You can change how you feel today.
Be receptive to your wellbeing as it flows.

Respect yourself because other people can see
If you don’t and this knowledge may cause them to treat
You the same way you feel about yourself. Be kind
To yourself always. Go deep within where you’ll find
Peace and guidance. Attune to your inner drumbeat.
It’s never too late to live your life happily.

Nothing Blooms All Year Long

Jul15

When your heart loves someone unconditionally
Then your mind suffers most. Love a person who tries
Their best to understand you. Never make someone
Special in your life who has absolutely none
Of the qualities you value. Open your eyes
To the wonderful loving person you could be.

When a toxic person can no longer control
You they will try to control how others see you.
Let not that behavior cause you any distress.
Strong people don’t have many friends. Your happiness
Is of utmost importance in all that you do.
Get away from whatever’s not keeping you whole.

You bloom with others who understand you. Never
Walk, fight, smile, try, or cry alone. Stop looking back
With regret. Instead look forward with hope. Don’t lose
Your self-respect. It’s a form of self-care. Excuse
Not the bad one’s behavior yet don’t show a lack
Of compassion. It will stick with you forever.

Nothing Blooms All Year Long. Don’t expect yourself to
Nor the people around you. Give yourself a break
From yourself and others by regaining access
To your best self – the one you most want to express
To the world. It’s about time that you come awake
To the manifold blessings set aside for you.

Mindset And Manifestation

Jul13

Twenty percent of your efforts can set the stage
But the remaining eighty percent is the thing
That will transform your dreams into reality.
To supercharge your manifestation journey
Do the things in life that truly make your heart sing.
This whole world full of wonder you have to engage.

The small part of your effort – that twenty percent
Of your success in manifestation comes from
Having the right tools and resources and the rest
Is all about your mindset. Believe that you’re blessed
By the universe then behold what good will come.
Your power to manifest becomes evident.

You can do vision boards, journals, and focus wheels
To get clarity on what you want. The techniques
Used to focus are many but don’t get obsessed
With such things to the point where it gets you depressed.
Be comforted in knowing that what your heart seeks
Is already done. Just think about how it feels.

Your mindset is your beliefs, your ability
To stay positive and focused even when things
Get most difficult, and how you think through the day
About yourself. You attract things to you this way.
Be aware of what good things your good thinking brings.
First and foremost affirm that you’ll live happily.

Advice From The Elderly

Jul10

Everything comes to you at the right time so be
Patient and trust the process. To give out someone
Else’s secret is a betrayal but to give
Out your own is stupidity. It’s best to live
Without care about what others think. What you’ve done
In the past should remain there for eternity.

Life’s biggest tragedy is that we get old too
Soon and wise too late. The more people let you down
The easier you’ll bounce back and realize that
Life doesn’t stop for anyone. Take a look at
What is causing you to constantly wear a frown.
Take the time to consider what is best for you.

The bee doesn’t waste its time trying to convince
The fly that honey is better than shit. If you
Want to change people, yourself is where to begin.
Get to know your emotional guidance within.
No one knows better than yourself what you must do.
Notice when a circumstance causes you to wince.

Death does not concern us because as long as we
Exist death doesn’t and when it finally comes
We no longer exist. Be humble enough to
Know that no one’s any better or worse than you
But be wise enough to keep on beating the drums
Of your blessed uniqueness. Be all you can be.

Signs Of Dissolution

Jul8

Nothing is permanent. Don’t stress yourself too much
Because no matter how bad the situation
Is it will change. It takes a lot of courage to
Push through hard times. Don’t give up whatever you do.
Good things are coming your way and your elation
With your masterpiece is but your finishing touch.

Never compare your life with others. It may seem
That theirs are better than yours but they have issues
Just as you do. Life gives you many chances to
Screw up but there are as many offered you
To get it right. You have to be willing to choose
Happiness over misery in the extreme.

Some folks aren’t loyal to you. They’re loyal to their
Need for you. When their needs change there’s no loyalty
Any longer. You enemies will often tell
You the truth because it hurts. They know very well
That it does but friends will lie to you easily
Because it doesn’t hurt. So, how much can they care?

Living with glory is not about avoiding
Failure but about getting back up each time you
Fall. Success isn’t just about moving up the
Ladder. It’s about placing it where you can see
Where you’re going. Embrace what’s exciting and new.
You have power enough to get through anything.

You’ll Never Be The Same

Jul5

Be smart enough to ask for advice but be wise
Enough to know who to seek it from. Never give
Someone the opportunity to waste your time
More than once. To you it should be seen as a crime.
Challenge yourself. It’s the only way you can live
And evolve as a person no one can despise.

To change your life you have to change priorities.
Be like a tree and let the dead leaves fall away.
Your future depends on your focus. Be aware
Of what you’ve done already and place your hope there.
Always be mindful of everything that you say.
Take advantage of what can put your mind at ease.

Accept that some people can only be in your
Heart but not your life so learn to miss someone
Without wanting them back. When you react you lose
Your power to the circumstance. You get to choose
How to feel in each moment. How your life is run
Is the business of no one’s malignant allure.

Once you believe in yourself you no longer need
To convince others of all the things you can do.
The best thing about you is your capacity
To create, overcome, endure, transform, and be
Greater than all the suffering that you go through.
At creating the life you want you will succeed.

Before It’s Too Late

Jun29

You can’t change things that happened a long time ago.
Don’t be bitter with yourself about what you’ve done
That showed your disconnection from reality
In the distant past. Right now is where you should be.
In this moment the rest of your life is begun.
There’s still some time left for your consciousness to grow.

Happiness isn’t the absence of problems. It’s
The ability to deal with them. Challenges
Aren’t to be backed down from as they offer the best
Lessons in life. You’re not being put through a test
So ignore most completely what anyone says
To the contrary. Live what your knowing permits.

Discuss your past with no one because only you
Know the true story and any significance
It may have to the present. They just may use it
Against you. Generally others are unfit
To hear that information. Don’t give them the chance
To create their own drama and skewed point of view.

Life changes for the better when you realize
That you don’t have to know everything and you don’t
Have to pretend that you do. If you can become
And eagle then don’t strive to be first among some
Flock of jackdaws. Decide in you mind that you won’t
Let the past be what causes your early demise.

Life’s Requirements

Jun23

You’ll never change your life until you change something
You do daily. The secret of your true success
Will be found in the heart of your daily routine.
You attend well to your spiritual hygiene
When you feel more and try to figure things out less.
Pay attention to those things that make your heart sing.

The purpose of your life is to be happily
Successful – not just successful. You get to choose
What you tell yourself every day. It can uplift
You or tear you down. Your emotions are a gift
You can use as your guidance and you’re the one who’s
The best suited for making your reality.

Don’t let others bring you down. Don’t pay attention
To what people say. Be aware of what they do.
Be respectful of all people even when they
Don’t deserve it. Do know that your respect is a
Reflection of your character – not theirs. So you
Remain positive in purpose and intention.

Don’t mix bad words with your bad mood. You’ll have many
Opportunities to change your mood but never
Will you get the chance to replace all that you said.
Look upon your life not with a feeling of dread
But with anticipation of life’s endeavor.
Find something to appreciate and get happy.

Create A New Life

Jun11

Take time out of your busy day to disconnect
From your world. Turn your cell phone off and the TV.
Power down the computer. Relax your body.
Close your eyes. Take some deep breaths and get you mind free
Of its chatter. You want to be absolutely
In this moment. Give yourself its proper respect.

Your mind wanders to the predictable future
Or the familiar past which is normal. Just be
Aware of your thoughts but always bring yourself back
To the present. Don’t worry about keeping track
Of your progress. It all should come naturally.
Keep your focus on nothingness simple and pure.

You’re your most creative when you’re in the moment.
While you’re there ask yourself if you can be defined
By the future instead of failures of the past.
What do you want in your life? Amid the contrast
That life offers what preferences come to mind?
What can you manifest by your conscious intent?

As you begin to think about the answers to
Your questions your brain starts to change. New sequences
And new combinations of neuron firing
Happen when you’re focused on what you’re admiring
And your new life of true happiness commences.
Don’t give up because there’s so much in it for you.

Decide on the emotions that you’ll feel when you
Manifest what you’re wanting. Rehearse in your mind
Who you’re going to be when you open your eyes.
Do this often and before long you’ll realize
A new self which has been completely redesigned.
You have much in the way of success coming due.

Alien Perspective

May15

How the universe sees us is something that’s known
By the aliens. Coming from somewhere in space
They’re among us and they have our story to tell
To our faces. Don’t worry that it won’t go well.
Actually it may put a smile on the face
Of the weary to which some relief can be shown.

We’ve chosen to forget who we are so that we
Rediscover ourselves from a new perspective.
With forgetting comes the ability to choose
Negative ways of thinking. Our limited views
Of existence determine the lives that we live.
So in living why do we have difficulty?

We buy into certain ways of understanding.
We’ve forgotten that physical reality
Is a mental projection such as in a dream.
We tend to take things then to the very extreme.
Reinforcement of our negative energy
Keep us stuck. Our consciousness isn’t expanding.

We are master transformers of thought energy
And as such we’re a master class of very strong
Spirit beings who can change darkness into light,
Limitation to freedom, and wrongness to right.
At the rate we’re going will it take very long
For us to remember who we came here to be?

Remember Who You Are

May9

Many times we feel fear. The human condition
Is such that negative emotion is a cave
In which we are all hiding. Sometimes we may feel
That life isn’t worth living. The feeling is real
To the point where our souls we’re not able to save.
It is difficult to be in this position.

Yet there are times of happiness so we can be
Skeptical. We can learn to listen with our hearts
Rather than with the confused voices in our heads.
We can rip the script that they’re reading from to shreds.
Our intention is to master the loving arts
And to live life outside of the cave happily.

Don’t believe all those negative emotions that
Create poisonous stories. Don’t spew them around
Because they keep you in the cave. It’s time that you
Change your message. Empower your word. As you do
A new sense of respect for yourself will be found.
You’ll be free of the problem of mental chitchat.

We’re given this wonderful opportunity
To get out of the cave that we have created.
Within the utter darkness you can be the light
To lead others knowing that everything’s alright
Once that you’ve been properly indoctrinated.
You’re a messenger of peace, love, and harmony.

Be Impeccable With Your Word

May6

When you say that you’ll do something for someone, you
Ought to do it no matter what and graciously.
Any kind of behavior contrary to this
Leads the soul down a corridor to an abyss
Of darkness due to conscious impropriety.
Treat people with proper respect in what you do.

You may be far more impeccable with others
Than you are with yourself. For example, when you
Tell yourself that you’re going to work out today
And you don’t then you might feel some bit of dismay
Because to your own promise you haven’t been true.
You have done what the lesser part of you prefers.

It means much more than doing what you say you’ll do.
Being impeccable with your word means to be
Perpetually truthful in thought, word, and deed.
Living this way, emotional poison is freed
From the depths of the impressionable psyche.
Being truthful will bring many blessings to you.

Be Impeccable With Your Word. It’s the correct
Use of your energy. The intention alone
To be truthful will trigger a change in your heart.
In your own transformation you play a huge part.
To you only that which is truthful will be shown.
It truly elevates your sense of self-respect.

A Call To Wellbeing

Mar28

Lately I’ve decided that I’m a good person
And that I deserve good things to happen to me
Therefore I have decided that I’m going to
Pamper myself as much as I can. When I do
I feel better. My aim is to live happily.
An important part of my life is having fun.

I’ll look for the ease in every situation
And find satisfaction as I go with the flow.
I feel better than ever. Let the good times roll!
Having given up resistance I’ve gained control
Of my point of attraction. I’m glad that I know
Of my awesome power of instant creation.

I’m going to hang out only with people who
Are exciting and fun to be with. I’m going
To look for reasons to feel good right where I am.
What I follow is a very simple program.
I rely on the provident and all-knowing
Universe to assist me in all that I do.

When I feel myself basking in any moment
I will milk it for everything it can offer.
Life is meant to feel good and I have found a way
To stay focused on feeling good throughout each day.
I can feel good no matter what bad may occur
And it’s done easily by my conscious intent.

Change Your Expectation

Feb24

Try to spend a little more time thinking about
What you want and a little less wondering how
You will get it. Your platform of expectation
Launches you into the very next creation
When a change in your outlook you learn to allow.
Take your focus off ‘what is’ if it causes doubt.

‘What is’ is so pervasive – so much in your face.
Difficult it is to escape its influence
As it gnaws at the psyche and swallows the soul
But you must know that you have absolute control
Of your thoughts and emotions. It makes perfect sense
That ‘what is’ is a thing you foolishly embrace.

‘What is’ changes to ‘what is’ as you notice it
And offer a vibration about it so that
It will manifest and you will notice it more.
The cycle continues and life seems like a chore.
‘What is’ isn’t really worth your looking hard at.
True change will come when to the future you commit.

When you merge together the platform from where you
Are with something that you want that is beyond it
That’s when expectation changes. Think more about
Where you’re going and know that things are working out
For you always. Lay off of ‘what is’ just a bit.
Raise your consciousness so you get a better view.

Interview

Feb17

Worthiness was at issue. I needed a new
Place to work at because of utter frustration
With my purpose and how I was being treated.
I did not want my mistake to be repeated.
There was no tolerating my situation.
I knew perfectly well what I needed to do.

Several rounds of interviews I scheduled for.
I could not be successful in them because I
Had the imprint of anger in my vibration.
I was not happy with my messed up creation.
I went on for a long while without knowing why
I’d been harming myself by things that I abhor.

So I made peace with the people and policies
Of the place where I still worked and then I went on
To the next interview feeling so lighthearted
That I knew that I had it before it started.
The contempt that I once had was completely gone.
I engaged the interview with uncommon ease.

At the end of the interview they offered me
The position with the pay that I had in mind.
They augmented the job description to include
Things that I adore. My faith in life is renewed.
With my true self I had become fully aligned.
I’d lined up with the power of Source Energy.

Dealing With ‘What Is’

Feb15

Where I am is where I am. What else can I do
But accept where I am now? Were I to complain
Or worry I know that it would do little good.
I would praise and be hopeful if only I could.
Is there not a positive thought to entertain?
About my situation I’m feeling quite blue.

How can I look at it optimistically
When ‘What Is’ hijacks too much of my attention?
How do I make peace with it and be on my way?
I don’t function well when I’m in utter dismay.
Hopefulness is way beyond my comprehension
At this moment. This isn’t the way it should be.

I’ve lived long enough to know that this too shall pass.
‘What Is’ won’t last forever. The only reason
It continues to be is because I cling to
‘What Is’ so much that ‘What Could Be’ cannot get through
My resistance. I know that I’m the only one
Who’s responsible for closing the wide crevasse.

At some point I know that I will have to ignore
‘What Is’ long enough until I can find something
Totally off the subject that gives me relief
From my self-induced agony. It’s my belief
That I can change my thinking so that it will bring
Harmony to my situation and much more.

About Life

Jan5

Is this universe friendly or is it hostile?
Which is it? Is it filled with evil and hatred?
Is it one of benevolence and harmony?
Ask this question of yourself because it is the
Most important one in life so go right ahead
With your answer. It shouldn’t take you a long while.

What you see is what you get. If you see anger,
Desolation, and sorrow then that’s what will be
Much of your life experience. If you see love
Everywhere then love will be the basic part of
Your existence. Don’t you want to live happily?
Think about your life in the way you would prefer.

Change the way that you look at things and when you do
Those things will change to match what you now have in mind.
Science has proven this by now so it’s a fact.
Every thought that you think has a subtle impact
On your point of attraction so be more inclined
To think thoughts that are most beneficial to you.

Any situation is far less important
Than your interpretation of it. Anything
In life is simply a product of the meaning
Given to it. Give your soul a thorough cleaning.
Onto old destructive behaviors do not cling.
Things you can do are more that the things that you can’t.

Daily Mantras

Dec17

When I ask it is given but I have to be
In the receptive mode before I can partake
Of the blessings God offers. If there’s resistance
In my asking it’s as if I don’t stand a chance
Of receiving. This habit of mine I must break
And I will get rid of it eventually.

I’m perfect the way I am – the way God made me
So I don’t need to seek perfection anywhere
But within me then everything else is just fine.
I cannot lose my connection with the divine
In fact we are quite an inseparable pair
Though there are certain times when we do not agree.

God is never wrong and anytime that I feel
Negative emotion I know that I’m not in
Alignment with God’s version of what I perceive
And since all good comes from God I have to believe
In redemption from having lived a life of sin.
I do not want to make of my life an ordeal.

I feel that I’m not good enough as I recall
My past insane behavior. It causes me pain
To do so. I’d much rather think that I’m okay.
A life of misery is a huge price to pay
For the past. There’s no goal that I need to attain.
What I contribute to life I pray isn’t small.

Stop Negative Thoughts

Nov8

All the things that I don’t like take over my mind
In a big way. I’m unable to concentrate
On anything else but my bad situation
Which I know by now is of my own creation.
My life as I know it is in such a sad state
That relief from my negative thoughts I can’t find.

When I find myself in negative emotion
It tells me that I’ve got some resistance going
On within me. It also lets me know that I
And my inner being don’t agree. This is why
I feel badly. How can I get good thoughts flowing?
To how I feel I must give utmost devotion.

I’ve decided that I’m going to render this
Vibration inactive. By my writing it down
And then placing it in the ‘inactive’ box I
Put myself in the driver’s seat. When I apply
Simple rules of alignment I can’t wear a frown.
In not trying this trick out I would be remiss.

I can vibrate deliberately. When I do
I always get measurable responses from
This vibrating universe. This is a sure thing.
It’s not iffy or chancy. Indeed it will bring
Everything that I want. All the good that will come
Through my change in perspective will render me new.

Your Highest Priority

Sep7

In order to live a life of awareness and
Freedom, in other words, to create Authentic
Power you need commitment, courage, compassion,
And appropriate action. Communication
With others is more conscious. You feel terrific.
You’ve found what allows your consciousness to expand.

All are of equal importance but commitment
Helps to get the ball rolling. Commitment to what?
To yourself and to your becoming more aware
Of your purpose. It’s important for you to care
About how you are feeling deep down in your gut
About living your life to the fullest extent.

To create more consciously and constructively
Is all part of your purpose. Being able to
Connect with people better than you’re doing it
Presently can be of tremendous benefit
To your growth as a spirit. You’re able to do
What it takes to develop spiritually.

Commitment is the deep fuel. It’s the thing that makes
It all happen. Rather than withdrawing into
Judgment or needing to please others you can be
Much more aware of Your Highest Priority.
May you have freedom that before you never knew.
The decision on your part is all that it takes.

Authentic Power

Sep3

The change is happening. We don’t have to make it
Happen. It’s an expansion of our perception
Beyond the limitations of the five senses.
We know now that our actions have consequences
And that we can tune ourselves for the reception
Of nonphysical knowledge for our benefit.

We’re becoming aware of ourselves as more than
Bodies and minds. We have another sensory
System of which our intuition is a part
As well as the warm feelings that come from the heart.
Feeling that you’re living your life meaningfully
Is a clue that your doing everything you can.

We’ve used external power to manipulate
And control things but that doesn’t work anymore.
It’s now counterproductive. Authentic Power
Is accessed from within. One could ask, “Just how were
We able to make it this far, and what’s in store?”.
A future of harmony we’re here to create.

The highest part of yourself that you can reach for
Is your soul so align your personality
With your soul’s mission. Then you will experience
Your Authentic Power. Your new life you’ll commence
With excitement and passion. You want to be free
Of your false sense of power so you can do more.

The Power Of The Mind

Aug23

It’s not only the pendulum tied to the string
That the mind can manipulate. The placebo
Is a perfect example of how the mind can
Create outcomes. The mind has much more power than
Anyone could imagine. How much can we know
Of its wonders? Is it a spiritual thing?

The outcome is determined by expectancy
On your part but don’t get attached to the outcome.
What you want then will manifest. It’s guaranteed.
At the biggest undertakings you will succeed.
Get yourself in the habit of beating the drum
Of your passion and thus be who you’re meant to be.

On your internal dialogue every cell in
Your body is eavesdropping. By changing the way
That you talk to yourself you can change your body
Chemistry so that healing occurs easily.
In a state of wellbeing you can always stay.
All your cells want is for you and themselves to win.

Inherent in your having the desire are the
Mechanics for its happening. Each is a part
Of the whole divine process. You need only be
Receptive to the good that flows naturally
Through your focus while operating from the heart.
You can use your mind to live your life happily.

Tomorrow

Aug7

Tomorrow is the most dangerous word in your
Vocabulary. Although it’s a symbol for
Hope, it can just as easily be the reason
That your dreams remain dreams. To get anything done
Is a struggle, yet your dreams you cannot ignore.
Tomorrow isn’t the palace where now you can store.

Tomorrow diminishes the significance
Of the air that you’re breathing right now. It tells you
That someday you can begin your journey and that
In comfort you can wait. But you’re not looking at
The big picture. Tomorrow has nothing to do
With this present moment and current circumstance.

Tomorrow masks itself as an escape for those
Held down by fear. They are most resistant to change.
They’ll encourage you to be content where you stand
And that you have your whole life to do what you’ve planned.
But to one who is present this message is strange.
It’s contrary to what the enlightened one knows.

There will never be a moment in your life more
Precious than the one you’re living now. Be aware
Of the present. Tomorrow can last forever.
Opportunities come to you almost never
When you take on the attitude that you don’t care.
This moment is the one that is worth living for.

Who You Really Are

Aug4

Do you know Who You Really Are? You’re a machine
With a spirit created by God. You’re the light
That shines through you. Both essences are intertwined
In a way that whatever comes into your mind
Will become manifested. You don’t have to fight
For the process to work and results to be seen.

In this world there are no victims, villains, or those
Who cast shadows upon you. That’s an illusion
Of the ego. There’s no one doing things to you.
It makes sense to take the logical point of view.
You choose what you’ve created and all that you’ve done
You own up to. You can know what your spirit knows.

When you can say, “I did this,” you find the power
To change things for the better. And in so doing
Tremendous satisfaction is what you will feel.
All in good timing the universe will reveal
Exactly the best path you should be pursuing.
Be open to having wonderful things occur.

Seek then to create change not because something’s wrong
But because it no longer makes an accurate
Statement of who you are now. As soon as today
You can change your life circumstance in a big way.
Go ahead with the life you were meant to create.
Get accustomed to living your life like a song.

The Life That You Want

Apr10

If I think about it long enough and I keep
Myself focused there with a picture in my mind
Of my having it, then it has to manifest.
I create from a higher state and do my best
To stay there. I find the universe to be kind.
Things can happen for me even while I’m asleep.

The coincidences of my life I manage.
I can place my attention on what I would like
To create in my life, and with this attitude,
Only pure positive energy I exude.
Getting there is as easy as riding a bike
On the down slope. I could go on a joy rampage.

Higher levels of consciousness can be achieved
Just by sitting and dreaming. I could meditate,
Chant, or fast, or go on a spiritual quest
For enlightenment, but I need only divest
Enough focus upon what I want to create
And be thankful for what I’ve already received.

The reptilian mind meets the neocortex
Where awareness of others can yield empathy
For all those who are suffering. I feel the pain,
But I can’t let the world’s issues drive me insane.
I’m thankful I’ve been able to get myself free
Of the status quo and all its harmful effects.

About Life

Apr9

Most people are living a kind of hypnosis
Wherein they pledge allegiance to the opinion
Of a vacant society instead of to
What they feel in their hearts they would much rather do.
It can feel like the outer world has dominion
Over their souls. It is a social sclerosis.

The plan and purpose of life is obedience
To one’s inner nature. We are here to express
Life as we instinctively feel it ought to be.
It’s not healthy to be trapped in low energy.
We’re supposed to be in a state of happiness
Fairly often. We are creatures of refulgence.

Everything vibrates and emits a vibration.
Ours consist of our thoughts, beliefs, feelings, and acts.
They form an energy pattern which is our vibe.
It remains difficult for someone to describe,
But you know when you feel it. It either attracts
Or repels you. It is a point of causation.

All these vibes come together and form what we know
As the Collective Consciousness. It sponsors war,
Mass shootings, pandemics, earth disasters and such.
It can yield good things also, yet we pay to much
Attention to past horrors, and we expect more
Of the same for the future. How then can we grow?

Shift Your Vibration

Apr7

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.

Let Go Of What Is

Mar24

My life has a dark cloud over it. I perceive
That it follows me everywhere. My money woes
Overwhelm me. I can’t find an easy way out
Of my troubles. My future is fettered in doubt.
I’m in this dilemma constantly, and it shows
That I lack in my ability to receive.

It’s a horrible story. Even though it’s true,
To stay focused upon it does me little good.
I create more of what I give attention to.
The old story can only lead to something new
If the laws of the universe are understood
To be functioning in everything that I do.

The new and improved version of my own story
Can include anything that I feel should be there.
If I’m stuck in the same old beliefs by habit,
Then my authoring will be of no benefit
In changing my vibration from that of despair.
A cooperative component I must be.

‘What is’ has no real meaning, in fact, it is past.
Each moment is a new one. The more I let go
Of the negative feelings, the more I allow
Inspiration and insight to tell me just how
To proceed on my journey. I most want to know
How to make wonderful moments in my life last.

Gratitude

Mar16

From a compressed perspective, the world that we know
Could use lots of acceptance and understanding.
Glaringly apparent are the imbalances
Among health, wealth, and freedom. What are the chances
Of survival when there’s so much hate happening?
Spiritually, we have a long way to go.

That’s just one way of seeing things. There may be more,
But statistics interpret our reality.
If you have food, a place to sleep, and clothes to wear,
You are richer than most in the world. So is there
A reason to be grateful? Most definitely!
There is more than enough one can be grateful for.

If you’ve never experienced imprisonment,
Or the pangs of starvation, you’re more fortunate
Than one half billion people. If you can attend
A church meeting, not fearing it may be the end
Of existence, you have reason to celebrate.
Let the numbers enlighten you to some extent.

Treasuring our divinity means being in
A constant state of appreciation. Looking
For occasions to be joyful and in a state
Of sheer gratitude is the best way to create
A fulfilling life no matter what’s happening.
Making peace with where you are is how to begin.

Because You Believe

Feb22

You were born with a strong sense of your wellbeing
But not with practiced control of your vibration.
So, you practice. As you explore enough contrast,
You launch brand new desires. Your horizons are vast.
You want to become a master of creation,
So you think only those thoughts that are heart freeing.

When you want something and it does not come to be,
You may think that some outside force is preventing
It from coming. Believing yields more evidence
That it just may not happen. It doesn’t make sense.
To believe what you want won’t come is tormenting.
It remains a big part of your reality.

A belief is just a thought that you continue
To keep thinking. Your observation of something
Holds it in your vibration, then you attract more
Of the same. If it is something that you adore,
Then your focus upon it can be fulfilling.
But if it’s not, is there something that you can do?

You can stop thinking it. You can cease offering
The vibration of your current situation.
Don’t deny what you’re feeling. Just feel something new.
By focusing in another direction, you
Can change your belief into a much better one.
By your believing, you can create anything.

Daily Mantras

Jan19

There’s no gain worth discussing when you are in pain.
You are holding yourself in the resistant stance
That does not allow healing nor the receiving
Of spiritual insight. You’re not achieving
Anything but more torment. When offered the chance
By spirit to release it, don’t fret and complain.

Life causes you to ask, then vibrationally,
It is given. You have to find some way, somehow,
To come into alignment with what you’ve asked for.
Your deserve everything that you want and much more.
Decide that it is high time for you to allow
All the good things you want in life to come to be.

Look for reasons to feel good. Keep a diary
Of good feelings. Trust in the Law of Attraction.
Hang around with people who are fun to be with.
Your creating with others is truly the pith
Of good living. Your life is supposed to be fun.
Of your own life take full responsibility.

Cue yourself up for happiness. Your alignment
With who you really are is your key to success.
Break the vibrational chain of pain by changing
Your thinking about it, or indeed anything
That will lead to relief from the moment’s distress.
Happiness is achieved by your conscious intent.

That Was Then

Dec18

All my manifestations keep going somewhere
Other than where I want them to, which is with me.
I’ve had this conversation with myself before,
And my thinking about it does not give me more
Of an edge on fulfillment. I need to break free
Of the prison created by my lack of care.

That Was Then. This Is Now. I know how to relieve
Myself of the resistance. By my maintaining
My vibration, I can manifest easily.
I am fully in touch with who I’m meant to be.
I know now that there is no use in complaining.
I am responsible for all that I receive.

The path of least resistance is being carefree.
Practicing feeling good until I have allowed
Something to manifest is in itself worthwhile,
But my appreciation goes the extra mile.
To the mission of happiness I am avowed.
I know now what the past has provided for me.

Then, I didn’t know what I know now, and what I
Know now is different from the grief I once knew.
I can better feel the path of least resistance.
Within each moment there exists the perfect chance
To be blissful. To my own self I must be true.
All the laws of the universe here do apply.

Make Peace

Dec17

Something wants to change. What in the world could it be?
I don’t know, but not knowing what shape it will take
Isn’t driving me crazy. I only know that
This Law of Attraction stuff I do have down pat.
All that is revealed is by the peace that I make
With the present and all that has happened to me.

I got happy. I stand here in my wholeness and
In my full resonance with what I have become.
As I revel in that, changes do make their way
Into my life experience. It’s fun to play
In a world that adores me. My life is awesome.
Of my thoughts and feelings I’ve assumed full command.

I could set a goal, identify a timeline,
And hold to it, but that rarely is fulfilling
Because my awareness of the thing I have not
Ties every expectation into a tight knot.
I don’t like when that happens, so I am willing
To believe in my heart that everything is fine.

Making peace with where I am has helped me to be
More in touch with my true self who is satisfied
No matter what the circumstance. My emotion
From my place of asking, “Why?” is what gets things done.
How I feel about living is my only guide.
I’ll get used to the idea of being free.

Change Your Expectation

Nov16

Think about what you want more and much less about
The way things are right now. ‘What Is’ gets in the way
Of what could be. You can Change Your Expectation
Of what happens in your life through your vibration.
Your attention to ‘what is’ is what makes you stay
In the same old conundrum of worry and doubt.

Most contour and arrive at their expectation
Based upon what they are observing constantly.
Our observing of things is something that won’t change.
It is natural for us, though it could get strange.
‘What is’ is slow to change into how things can be
Because folks are stuck in a ‘what is’ fixation.

Scientists are ‘what is’ focused as they collect
And sort through tons of data. They substantiate
Their derived expectations, so ‘what is’ remains
Reinforced. Their attention upon it maintains
Its reality, which is what we all create.
Our reality is here for us to perfect.

Rather than regurgitating reality
You can think about where you would like things to go.
Notice ‘what is’ much less. Step back from the details
Of where you are. Detach from the ‘now’ that prevails,
And seek comfort in all that you have come to know
About changing what you deem to be change worthy.

The Perpetual Wave Of Change

Nov11

“It’s just the way it is. It’s always been like this,”
But it can be any way you want it to be.
Things are always changing. They just keep changing to
The same thing if nothing else is offered by you.
Change happens by your focusing differently.
Things turn into catastrophe or into bliss.

By regurgitating ‘what is,’ you reinforce
Old patters of behavior. The fresh and the new
Cannot happen unless you want something better.
Do not wait for the world to send you a letter
Giving you permission so that you follow through
With the impulses coming to you from your source.

Look at life through the lens of broader perspective –
Through the eyes of your inner being who sees all
That you want to accomplish. You are creators.
If you want something, then, by golly, it is yours!
This happens for the big stuff as well as the small.
Be aware of the wonderful life you can live.

You accomplish the mastery of creation
By knowing your emotional guidance system.
It is always consistent. It will lead you to
Everything that you want in life. Your point of view
Is one that is quite impossible to condemn.
Be proud of the spiritual work you have done.

Change Everything

Oct11

Find a more optimistic thought. Step back into
A more general stance. Look in the direction
Of your dream in the making. You can feel better
Than you do in the moment. You’re the begetter
Of your own individualized vibration.
Think of things that will bring many blessings to you.

“Hard times always precede boom times.” This you can say
For example. “The other side of my distress
Is fulfillment. This situation too will pass.”
In this way you can eliminate the crevasse
Between you and reality. Total access
You have to better feeling thoughts throughout the day.

The way you feel does not need to be tied to the
Current set of circumstances. You can step back
And acknowledge the sun having risen today.
More than anything else, it’s important to stay
In a place of elation, free from self-attack.
You can Change Everything most immediately.

You have complete control over the direction
Of your thoughts. When you accept this and you begin
Practicing it, you find that it’s easy to do,
And it’s the only thing that is required of you.
Your reality reflects what mood you are in.
Once you realize this, a new life is begun.

Be Impeccable With Your Word

Sep9

More important is your word than most anything
Because your word is your ultimate destiny.
It paints for you a portrait specific and true
That the world gets to see more than all that you do.
Be as deliberate as you know you can be
And thoughtful in what you are speaking or writing.

Have a keen sense of what to say. With your intent
You deliver your message to all who may hear.
Your impeccability is all about you.
If you intend well, then wellness will follow through.
Use your energy for truth. Whatever you fear
Can be sensed in your message. This you can’t prevent.

The emotional poison that festers within
Can be cleaned out completely – almost like magic
If with yourself you’re sincere in all that you say.
Even something as simple as, “Have a nice day”
You can say with conviction. There’s no special trick.
Now is always a good time for you to begin.

Watch the world change around you as you begin to
Speak with substance and honor to all that you know
To be true. There is no reason ever to lie
If to yourself this gem of spirit you apply.
Your words do represent you wherever you go.
It is always refreshing to learn something new.

Ask Before Sleeping

Aug24

Be angry, but sin not. Commune with your own heart
Upon your bed, and be silent. Yes, blow your top,
But do not let the sun go down on your anger.
Be silent to know yourself and not another.
All the stresses of this day, this night you may drop
So that you are replenished by the new day’s start.

In a way that no one knows, all will come to pass.
Everything in the world is created this way.
But people try to know it. Who knows through the night
Who is treading the wine press? As it turns daylight
Hell is still the main issue, is it here to stay?
Sleeping with just the question leads not to impasse.

Don’t intend to be lukewarm. The world spits you out
Like a thick wad of phlegm If you’re being intense
About something… anything, the universe knows
What it is that you’re after amid the shadows.
Go well into the night. Let your dreaming commence
Keep believing in yourself and what you’re about.

The goal is the awakening to who you are
At the core of your being. You’re magnificent
And worthy of wellbeing, abundance and more.
Do your asking at night. This will open the door
To a life of extreme delightful fulfillment.
Everything that you’re after is not very far.

Wisdom

Jul15

Not from books do we get it. Not all who are old
Have attained this grand virtue. This is not to say
That books cannot contain it and that older folk
Are all somehow demented. One can yet evoke
Genuine wisdom from anyone anyway,
And the way it’s distributed is manifold.

Waiting for circumstances to change so you can
Feel good is like looking into a mirror and
Waiting for your reflection to smile at you first.
It’s of no use and it is harmful at its worst.
If you want change then it is by your own command.
Search the depths of your soul to come up with a plan.

Remember, even false beliefs will seem to be
Justified in terms of physical data, since
Your experience of the world that is outside
Is its realization. It can’t be denied.
It takes only its repetition to convince
Everyone of its truthfulness uncannily.

With the raw material of you ideas
Work with exclusively though the data may seem
To be true obviously. Your experience
If it is changed will give you a new common sense.
Ideas will alter to express a new theme.
You will learn to dispense with the thinking that was.

Change Your Life

Jun27

Disconnect from your busy world. Shut off your phone.
Power down your computer. Turn off the TV.
Sit your body down for a while, and close your eyes.
This is done regularly by people most wise.
Take a break from the routine so that you can be
Properly replenished. You must spend time alone.

Take some deep breaths and center yourself in right now.
Put you attention into the present moment.
You will have more energy with which to create.
After doing this little bit you will feel great.
When the mind wanders, as it will, do not lament.
Just return to the now. By now, you should know how.

Ask yourself, “Can I be defined by a vision
Of the future instead of perverse memories?
What do I want in my life?” Answer truthfully.
Your are changing brain patterns most assuredly.
Decide on which emotions you would gladly seize
For your life moving forward into the long run.

Rehearse in your mind who you are going to be
When you open your eyes after meditation
Or when first waking up. What choices will you make?
You will be better focused while you are awake.
More efficiently you will be getting things done.
Keep this up and your life will change noticeably.

Change Your Life

Mar7

There’s a life that needs changing. Perhaps it’s my own.
There are no others near me. It suits me just fine
For the moment because I’m at step number one.
The main part of my journey is now just begun.
To invest in a future, I must make one mine
And ignore the small detail that I’m way past grown.

There must be disconnection from all that I know
Throughout each day for some time to be connected
To myself and the present. Devices need be
Put into silent mode. Noting can disturb me
While I make it my goal to be redirected
To the self who wants nothing better than to grow.

Ask myself if I can be defined by something
Of a possible future or of the dark past.
What would I want to change in my life if I could?
Contemplate in a way that is best understood
To come up with a vision I know that will last
As the subtle brain tissues now start firing.

Personality is composed of these three things:
How I think, how I act, and the way that I feel.
I can change who I am just by changing one thing.
Clarity and conviction in life it would bring.
I believe that my future can be most ideal.
Much control I can have over what my life brings.

Change Your Expectation

Mar1

On the verge of a wonderful thing happening,
Most people contour and arrive naturally
At a strong expectation based on what they see.
We take what we’re observing too literally
That we pay attention to it and completely
Miss the best of what could be and all it can bring.

Scientists gather data. We think we should too.
We collect heavy batches and sort through them all
Studying and comparing, so what we expect
Cannot be any different from the subject
That is right in our faces when seeing is small.
We do not have to prove things like scientists do.

You keep noticing things. They keep manifesting
Just the way you predicted them. It’s a good thing.
Pay more attention not to things as they are now.
Set your focus right past them, and this will allow
Wonderful expectations that make your heart sing.
Impulse and inspiration this one change can bring.

Expectation can only be changed when you merge
Together the platform from where you are right now
With something that you want that is way beyond it.
You can know that it is a benevolent split.
Never mind what is not here. It will be somehow
And it all comes about with a sufficient urge.

Powerful Statements

Jan31

Despite all that I’ve done and the hate that I’ve known,
All the pain is of no use while wallowing there.
I’m becoming more racist with each passing day.
God in heaven, did my spirit plan it this way?
Why am I so responsive and what should I care
That I’ve chosen to work this one out on my own?

I never held the thought that my race is supreme.
Hatred is like a chess game. I’m prodded to move
In some awful direction. I don’t play that well.
I end up believing that I’m living in hell.
Just because I am hated that does hardly prove
That I’m stupid enough to go to the extreme.

Now the veil has been lifted. There’s no more pretense
That can make of the stomach and bowels a disease.
It makes it so much easier to sort them out.
I’m at war but my mission is without a doubt
To pay more attention only to things that please.
I don’t care for the illness so this does make sense.

I can know who I really am no matter what
The state of my surroundings may happen to be
And from there I’m in touch with a peace that is real.
There is nothing more important than how I feel.
I have much control over what happens to me.
I cannot learn to live with a heart that is shut.

Perpetual Change

Jan12

Nothing is permanent except change, it’s been said.
Sofa crevasses and pants pockets may contain
The answers to the questions that everyone seeks
Regardless of how people may think that change speaks
To the sensitive psyche. Does this sound insane?
If it does, you know that this message should be read.

“It has always been like this,” most people will say.
This excuse is a catchall for not taking charge
Of the things that need changing. Indeed they can be
Any way that you want them. One just has to see
From a far vantage point where the picture is large
And all possible outcomes are in full display.

You don’t have to keep regurgitating what is.
Things do change. They just keep changing to the same thing
If you keep focusing on the same thing always.
The world constantly changes. If for you it stays
In a state of stagnation what good can it bring?
Life is no prison sentence nor is it a quiz.

You can think about things in a different way.
Look at life through the lens of broader perspective.
Different places, different faces… same thing.
If you want change to happen then stop worshiping
Things that have been and are now. They’ve not much to give.
You have nothing but your inner truth to obey.

Last Chance

Nov23

Ever-present black Friday is in the forecast.
Time is now of the essence. The need to act fast
Is apparent among us. The changes to come
Will turn out to be too much to handle for some.
Those who’ve learned how to deal with evolving contrast
Will still be here after several years have passed.

No one talks about sunspots except scientists.
They don’t make the news headlines for lack of suspense.
But they do exist and have a direct effect
On the system of planets. Most may not detect
Subtle differences enough to make some sense
Of what’s coming. So no preparation exists.

Behaviors will be amplified. Those who are meek
Will become even meeker. Those who are uptight
Will grow madder in their ways and more dangerous.
There will be time for action but none to discuss
Anything of significance. Although, we might
Make a difference in what is otherwise bleak.

As the wind blows, the plane flies most effortlessly
If it’s in the direction to where it flies best.
But if not then the pilot loses some control
And may crash. Yet the wind plays but a neutral role.
We may plan to be challenged and put to the test
And emerge more enlightened by what has to be.

Daily Mantras

Oct13

Life is meant to feel wonderful. That’s why I came –
For the bliss and the harmony in the contrast.
I will carve out that feeling every single day
Of my life here on earth. There is no other way
To engage this phenomenon. I am steadfast
And determined to feel good without any shame.

When I say, “This is hard; I can’t figure it out,”
I should then hear the voice in the back of my head
Saying, “Do something different – any damned thing
That frees you from your vibrational offering.
Break the chain-of-pain curse, and do something instead
That will alter your mood and relieve you from doubt.”

There is no gain worth talking about while in pain
Because when I dwell dead in the heart of it all
I hold myself in absence of what I desire.
Unseen forces benevolent live to conspire
To support all I’m feeling. No wish is too small
Nor too large for their liking. All I may attain.

I’ve decided I’m worthy no matter what stain
Of a curse ever present. I know what I’ve done.
There’s no time left for guilt tripping, but for release
And of thoughts and behaviors that bring inner peace.
No longer shall I live with my soul on the run.
And my mood is the only thing I need maintain.

Can One’s Mindset Be Changed?

Oct5

“What’s the psyche of those who…?” One fills in the blank
With the offense committed. Our identities
Set us ones against others. How can this be changed?
It will go on forever because we’re deranged
In that we’re a strange animal wanting to seize
Absoluteness of sovereignty distant to rank.

What’s the mind of the suicide bomber? Who knows
But the dead then crossed over and without the choice?
Humans must fight for what they truly believe in.
Animals protect boundaries. We may begin
To look hard at the future and try to rejoice
Yet we’re still just as animals, history shows.

When my space becomes threatened, I may have to kill
But I’d rather not do it, hence the paradox
Of the human condition. Beliefs that we own
Interfere with our instincts. That’s why we are prone
To such gut wrenching hatred. Our own growth it blocks.
Any nationalism means blood has to spill.

Can we come to the wisdom to end enmity?
If there’s no room in our souls for that to take place,
Then it will translate naturally to bloodshed.
We must kill off the enemy and move ahead
Which is why some think we can’t survive as a race.
It’s always been a struggle. We’ll just have to see.

The Hannitary Napkin

May15

When old men have their periods nothing is worse
Than to be not protected from uncontrolled flow.
The obese orange faced loser while on the golf course
Needs assurance that when it comes out with great force
There will be someone nearby unlike Morning Joe
Who will peddle the bullshit. I think it’s perverse.

Their relationship decades in blossoming mode
Is not one in compliance with anything good.
It’s not by definitions that words have meanings
But in how they are twisted to mean other things.
Multilayered is the fist-fucked fabric understood.
Too much of it seeps through, and to none is it owed.

Long before there was fox news, people just used rags
To absorb heavy leakage periodically.
Nowadays there are assholes who know how to suck
Like the best in the business. This arrogant schmuck
Is the ear-to-rump doctor for his majesty
With accent on the ‘jest’ as in funny freak flags.

Worthwhile and cost effective for neuter hygiene,
This fine Hannity product is just right for those
With weak minds ‘liberated’ to only believe
Those whose craft is in essence to cheat and deceive.
Bigotry is a virtue. Those who dare oppose
Risk the wrath of the fabric that just can’t come clean.
