Change Your Expectation

A Better Outlook

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.

Success And Feeling

Pure Happiness

Success is a feeling that most strive to achieve.
It’s the validation of your dedication,
Perseverance, and hard work. It’s satisfying
To succeed. The feeling is most gratifying.
Once it’s done then there’s reason for celebration.
It starts with having something in which to believe.

You advance confidently in the direction
Of your own dreams and endeavor to live the way
You had imagined. You will meet with a success
Unexpected in common hours. Your willingness
To let success chase after you helps you to stay
Receptive to the universe’s perfection.

If you can place into your imagination
What you want to attract and begin to feel it
Then that which you feel yourself to be you become
And you’re given that which you are. Give yourself some
Instant gratification. You want to permit
Your passion to invigorate your creation.

So, assume the feeling that would be yours if you
Were already in possession of your desire
Then your wish must be realized. Try it and see.
Feel your way to living your life successfully.
Anything that you want you’re able to acquire.
Get prepared for the dreams of your life coming true.

Reprogram Your Mind

Mind Puzzle

The subconscious mind is responsible for much
Of our thinking, behaviors, and actions and so
It determines much of our life circumstances.
We can think consciously but slim are the chances
That we change the subconscious mind. We cannot go
To that place easily due to nature and such.

Most people have a vague idea of how their
Subconscious minds impact them but they don’t fully
Understand it. They hear about it and think, “Oh
That’s entrancing but is it something I should know?”

So they never work at it intentionally.
It is hoped that this message is helpful to share.

Change the habit of something that doesn’t matter
Like which shoe to put on first. After a few weeks
Of your doing this consciously you’ll come to know
That you can break any habit and you will show
Yourself that you’re a master of subtle techniques.
Of your mind energy it takes but a smatter.

Negative thought creates tension in the body.
Take time to imagine yourself calm and relaxed.
The more your body becomes accustomed to it
The subconscious mind gains maximum benefit
From your conscious intention. It sucks to be taxed
By behaviors you can get rid of completely.

Everything Was Once A Thought

Thoughtful Moment

Everything that exists now was once just a thought
Which means everything that is ever going to
Exist must also be a thought. Ultimately
There is but one source of creative energy.
It’s divine and intelligent. Is this a new
Way of thinking? Does it really matter a lot?

Particles themselves do not create anything.
Everything comes from energy physicists say
And this energy can be affected by your
Ways of thinking. You can be absolutely sure
That your thoughts become substance in this special way.
Do not underestimate what your thoughts can bring.

The greatest gift we have is our ability
To imagine which is simply thought creation.
Brain activity increases in the process
Of imagining and with a little finesse
You can then bring about a manifestation.
Thought affects particles in this reality.

We live in an amusement park where we can be,
Do, or have what we want simply by focusing
Intently on what’s wanted. Be always aware
Of you negative random thoughts. Take special care
And replace them with thoughts that are more uplifting.
In this world of creation we’re perfectly free.

Don’t Give Up!

Ascension

To give up is to fall by the wayside and die.
I’m not willing to do that right now or ever.
Even though there are many things I have done wrong
My commitment to making amends is still strong
But the thing is I must do it now or never
Unless my mental illness will not let me try.

I can’t run out of content. There always will be
Something for me to write about. I’m okay there.
Can I do it in my best conceivable way?
Is there some deep emotional price I must pay?
Seriously, the people I’ve harmed wouldn’t care
Much at all about anything concerning me.

I can give up the struggle, pity, and self-shame
Long enough in each moment to become aware
Of my spirit eternal wherein I find peace.
All my negative karma I’d love to release
In an instant but that in no way would be fair.
Is there not enough love in my heart to proclaim?

I can’t give up the chance to be motivated
Into being. From there I can reach anywhere
That I choose. I can’t give up the life that I’ve made
For myself. I no longer have to be afraid
To express my true feelings and give utmost care
To make it another work of art created.

The Art Of Manifestation

Making Fun

Mastering The Art Of Manifestation can
Be as easy as being aware of how you
Feel in each moment. Like The Law of Allowing
You use it to draw unto yourself anything
You could want just as long as you’re not feeling blue.
You begin to receive within a short time span.

We all have within us this truly amazing
Capability to manifest. We do so
By our focused attention on what we want to
Become real. Every dream that we have can come true.
There’s not one thing the heart knows that you do not know.
The simplicity of this truth is worth praising.

You’ll attract into your life what you are – not what
You’ve been wanting. So be the thing that you desire.
It’s your goal to reflect the character of God
This notion isn’t blasphemous nor is it odd.
You have access and full support of the entire
Universe. You must feel that down deep in your gut.

And when you get to that place where you no longer
Have any criticism or condemnation
Of any of God’s children you will realize
The perfection of all things. You will become wise
In the fine art of deliberate creation.
Your attraction force will become a lot stronger.

The Need For More Lives?

Burnout Trajectory

I’m a creative person. I get a lot done,
And I love it. There’s noting in life I want more
Than to be inundated with activities
That excite me. I would ask the universe, “Please
Give me more lives, or at least more time to explore
All the things I’m involved with as I’m having fun.”

No matter where my focus is, it’s all about
My exhilaration – my joyful becoming.
But my thinking may show some signs of resistance
Because while I do one thing I’m missing the chance
To do others. It screws with my psychic plumbing
In a way that produces in me certain doubt.

So my point of attraction is way off the mark
Because I’m missing things that I want. I’m aware
More of what I’m not allowing to manifest.
In the mode of receiving I will get the best
Course of action by impulse. Enough I must care
About keeping my spirit away from the dark.

I’m loving the power of imagination.
When I’m in the receiving mode I don’t complain
About not getting things done. Then I can create
A life for myself that I would consider great.
My connection with Source Energy I maintain
If I can remain in a state of elation.

Don’t Worry About What Others Think

Insecure

People spend most of their lives in gut wrenching fear
Of what others may think of them. They lie awake
At night wondering how they would cope without the
Approval of others, and they obsessively
Change their image when they find the slightest mistake.
They can’t get satisfaction from how they appear.

To the verdicts of strangers we all surrender
Our freedom to fail gracefully. Those we don’t know
And don’t even like all that much we cater to.
Even though we don’t like being told what to do,
We do it without thinking. It causes us woe.
We play the role of the malignant pretender.

Don’t complain. Don’t explain yourself to anyone.
“Become independent of the good opinion
Of other people.”
Trust yourself. You and only

You know the enlightened one you were meant to be.
Don’t let other people’s judgments have dominion
Over how you feel. Then awareness has begun.

When we really mess up, almost no one will be
Looking or caring very much. They’re too involved
With their own issues. Our disgrace will be subsumed
Into social amnesia, so we’re never doomed
By unwanted attention. One who is evolved
Is above that kind of negative energy.

Those Internal Callings

Flames Of Desire

What most people regret when they come to the end
Of their journey on this earth is that they did not
Have the courage to live the life they were meant to.
We are all destined. We each have something to do
That’s unique and of value. You can do a lot
More than you may believe. Your doubt you can transcend.

Most people are living their lives just to fit in.
They are doomed to follow somebody else’s rules.
Most of us don’t allow ourselves the freedom to
Listen to Those Internal Callings that come through
To the surface of consciousness. They are the tools
Of divine inspiration and not those of sin.

The most important thing about being inspired
Is to understand what the word inspired does mean.
If you break it down, it means, ‘in spirit,’ and so,
It’s a message from spirit. It’s good that you know
That you are spirit and that you’re senses are keen
In perceiving that part of you if so desired.

You don’t have to die to be in touch with spirit.
That’s because you are spirit. From that awareness,
Everything shifts. There’s nothing that you cannot do.
You have accessed the most exalted part of you.
What is it in this world that you want to express?
There’s no reason on earth that you’d have to fear it.

Manifest Anything

All Is Possible With Intent Of Focus

It is all a performance. Upon this world stage,
You were sent to do magic. You are a master
Of creation. No one can tell you otherwise.
It takes nothing much for you to actualize
Anything, and you’ve learned how to do it faster
Than ever through the energy that you engage.

“How do you do it?” one may ask innocently,
Not knowing of vibration. It’s simply an act.
You pretend that the thing that you want is here now.
You imagine what it feels like, then you allow
Divine forces to bring unto you the exact
Circumstances to manifest the thing to be.

You adjust your performance depending upon
What you’re wanting. If it’s more money in the bank,
You pretend that you have way much more than you need
As you feel with intensity. Then with Godspeed,
On your way you will be. Who would you have to thank
For ensuring that your magic is never gone?

Fall asleep knowing that your dream has taken place
And that the divine audience has seen your play.
Let go, and let the provident force bring to you
That which by your resistance is long overdue.
There is nothing wrong in having things go your way.
Get to know the power of supreme divine grace.

Change Your Expectation

Create Anew From The Mind

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.

How To Win All The Time

The Race Is On

When you are on a winning streak, life is a breeze.
Letting go of resistance and expectation
Are the elements needed to get there from here.
Let nothing negative in nature interfere
With your focus. For you, it’s all about the run,
And the running is done with impeccable ease.

Your expectancy is of enormous power.
When you expect something, it happens. This is fact.
Know that you’ll have a positive experience,
And then have it! This would seem to make common sense,
But it doesn’t reflect the way most people act.
Upon you, universal good graces shower.

Remember a great experience you once had.
How you felt then is how you are feeling right now.
Parlay this positive experience into
Something more by recalling the good that you do
For the whole world in general. Then you allow
That feeling to become you, then you will be glad.

When you remember anything you activate
It’s vibration. In this way it is magnetized
So that other thoughts like it begin to occur
That will bring about feelings that you most prefer.
The potential for winning is now realized.
The secret to it happening is feeling great.

Let It In

Bright Beginning

The sunshine is delicious as I Let It In.
This day has been a miracle. I’m grateful for
How the laws of the universe train me to be
In alignment with what I call Source Energy.
Opportunities I have to learn a lot more
About this Source and my life. Where do I begin?

When I say that it’s possible, what I’m saying
Is that I know it could be, but it’s not right now.
Therein lies some resistance. If I say, “It’s Done!”
Then I am in alignment with the vibration
That will let the thing happen. I need but allow
Its becoming. My doubting causes delaying.

The larger part of me has already become
What I’m after. The feeling is different from
That of being uncertain. It’s done already.
When it’s done, I have freedom to just let it be
So that more quickly the things that I want will come.
I can’t let anything in if I’m feeling glum.

If I feel that it’s not done, then what do I do?
Who do I need to talk to? I don’t have to go
Through this mental gymnastic when I know It’s Done.
I don’t have to try harder, and I can have fun
On the way to fulfillment. Relief I can know
In accepting the doneness that I’ve access to.

Believe In Yourself

Never Give Up

Find something that you love to do. Make it something
That you do every day. Be completely obsessed
With this thing that you do. What you do from your heart
Brings you pleasure and makes of your life a fine art.
Use your imagination, and give life your best.
Someone will find the work you do interesting.

Set small goals, then achieve them. Get ready for more
Things you want to accomplish. Put pen to paper,
And declare your intentions. You find your freedom
In choosing whatever. As it gains momentum
You become a better reality shaper.
This will make you much more confident than before.

Grow a deep belief in yourself. Play the long game.
You don’t have to be the chosen one. Build resolve
In your spirit in order to reach the plateaus.
When it feels like your spirit is in the shadows
Keep on going. It’s how your spirit will evolve.
Be persistent and constantly adjust your aim.

As children, we’re told this word’s the way it must be,
And our lives are inside it. We try not to bash
Into walls too much and to remain satisfied
With the status quo. We also get to decide
How much of it worthy and how much is trash.
It may take decades for us to finally see.

Believe Your Visualization

Have Faith In Your Dream

How do I believe my visualization?
I must be doing it wrong because when I try
I have trouble imagining it coming true.
Why is my believing such a hard thing to do?
I can want like the dickens… alas, with a sigh,
I encounter resistance. Have I hurt someone?

Am I putting myself in the picture? Am I
In the state of receiving? Law of Attraction
Is at play at all times. Every feeling and thought
Determines what events into my life are brought.
This whole issue of manifesting can be fun.
All the rules of my feeling good here must apply.

Visualization is no different than
Galivanting around in this real world. Easy
It is for me to use my imagination.
Virtual is the image that can’t be undone
Unless I let it happen accidentally.
Listen only to the voice that says that I can.

Do it more? Perhaps I should follow this advice.
I can come up with some scenarios that are
Creative and believable. What I have done
Then is master the process toward solution
To life’s puzzle which until now seemed so bizarre.
Practice and patience can lead me to paradise.

God Will Show You The Way

Divine Providence

Many names there are for God. What is the divine?
By nature alien to us and most supreme,
The Being is imagined in myriad ways.
What is common is the fact that humans give praise
To the one consciousness who will have their esteem.
The distance between we and it is our design.

It would have us know that we are worthy beyond
Our ability to know in our condition.
Life causes us to ask, and God always answers
Not always in the way that the asker prefers.
We want to be in the sweet spot of creation
Where between each of us and God is a strong bond.

Our work is to get into the receiving mode.
What we receive is the feeling of alignment
With the God who lives in us and through us always.
Praying this way it’s guaranteed one’s spirit stays
Open to the receiving of divine intent.
God does not communicate in a special code.

I accept the perfection within the contrast
That keeps producing more asking for improvement.
The collective consciousness of all who exist
Now in spirit along with God want to assist
With the human condition and being content.
Faith that I have in my worthiness is steadfast.

Life Mastery

At One With The Flow

When you’re into the flow of things life is a breeze.
You feel full, well connected, and part of the whole
Of all that is created. Ascended masters
Guide you through your existence. Whatever occurs
You remain unaffected. You have trained your soul
To be calm, contented, and quite easy to please.

Your akashic record you may care to peruse.
You are interested in your tapping into
The power of your higher self. There is a way,
But you need not believe in a word that I say
Until you’ve tried some things out. The human in you
Demands proof, or else its truth you’ll flat out refuse.

The body is a complex energy system.
It is composed of chakras. The one that’s outside
Is the Soul Star Chakra. It is above the head.
Through this chakra, divine love you are being fed.
Everyone has this access. It can’t be denied
Nor can it be a thing that someone could condemn.

As you’re grounded and prepared for deeper insights
To come to you, the activation has begun.
In a nice quiet place focus on your breathing.
Imagine white or golden light that is bringing
Loving grace and a peace that’s as warm as the sun
To your Solar Star Chakra through your days and nights.

Influenced By The Future You

From The Self Yet Becoming

A version of your future self does now exist.
In your mind’s eye, imagine how that one would be
Doing things differently and take careful note.
This idea may seem to some rather remote
But if you are open to being completely
In alignment this exercise can’t be dismissed.

Watch this self of the future and imagine how
It would feel about everything you’re doing now.
Imagine if that self is doing the same things
In the same way it’s done them. This pondering brings
On a flood of insight if you will but allow
The connection to happen. Do make it your vow.

More aligned with your passion your future self is.
Try to mimic in every way how it behaves.
It would be more the way you would want it to be.
Watch the differences and you will clearly see
All that it is that you’re doing that only enslaves
And propels you into over analysis.

Mirroring the behaviors of the future you
Pulls you in the direction of how things could be.
Rather than your remembering ways of the past
Which will anchor you to your prevailing contrast,
Information and images come easily
To help you on your journey in all that you do.

Every Morning

Daily Routine

Pretend that you have a staff at your beck and call
Who include top professionals in every field.
They can orchestrate and deliver anything
That your heart could imagine. Indeed they could bring
It as fast as you want it. All truth be revealed,
Such a team does exist to excite and enthrall.

Tell this staff what you want them to work on today.
Be specific or general. It matters not.
You may write it down. This will enhance its power.
With their infinite talent your team will shower
You with all that you’ve asked for. This matters a lot
Because they want to help you in every which way.

You can tell your staff things like, “Bring me ideas.
Help me to rendezvous with others much like me.
Guide me to thoughts that are in harmony with all
That is wholesome in nature. Help me to stand tall
Through the challenges I may face. Help me to be
In the most blissful state there can be just because.”

Delegate to them. They are good at what they do.
They’re the engine in your vehicle as you drive
And the road that you travel and the scenery.
Every piece of your existence wants you to be
A master at receiving while you are alive.
Talk to them every morning. It is good for you.

Change Your Expectation

The Openminded Approach

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.

Get The Momentum Going

Keeping The Pump Primed

It feels good to have fun. This is easy to say.
The sheer simplicity of this declaration
Is that it’s not disputed by those who are sane.
Everyone understands. There’s no tax on the brain.
The pursuit of a good thing is always begun
With a happy mindset at the start of the day.

It feels good to pre-pave an exciting time out
With some friends. I imagine a fairly nice day
With lots of fun and laughter, and it shall be so.
The best way I know to get momentum to flow
Is to find something easy and then try to stay
Positive in my thinking. Can there be some doubt?

As the day unfolds, what I like I’ll acknowledge…
And the next, and the next thing that’s going my way.
In no time the momentum has gotten to be
To the point where I experience ecstasy.
If it’s practiced enough it becomes like child’s play.
In this reality I’m on the leading edge.

I cannot be ambiguous nor objective.
I can’t say, “I like this, but I don’t care for that.”
It will kill the momentum. Like priming a pump

I draw grace from my inner well. It’s no big jump
To the state of enjoyment from where I am at.
This for me is a most logical way to live.

Manifest Anything

Personal Magic

A button, a bowel movement, or one hundred grand
Can be manifested with the same attention.
Focusing in the right way keeps one in the mood
To attract what is wanted. Nothing is pursued.
All that comes is a matter of one’s intention
To receive the wellbeing by its open hand.

Jesus went to a village outside Galilee.
He was met by ten men with a dreaded disease.
They begged Jesus, “Take pity,” and he did just that
They believed he could cure them in their habitat
At a distance and not to varying degrees.
They had faith that they would be healed quite completely.

He told them, “Go and let the priests examine you.”
On their way they were cured just as they had believed.

One returned to give thanks to Jesus and he said,
“It’s your faith that has healed you.” Indeed we are led
Past the bounds of reality. What is perceived
By the Christ within oneself shall then become true.

Strong belief and thanksgiving embody the cure
For the ills that befall us. He who shows the way
To a much better circumstance lives within all
Who have some spark of loving grace however small.
Giving up resistance is a small price to pay.
We can all perform miracles if we are pure.

Dare To Dream

The Universe Through The Eyes Of Children

In this world full of wonder it’s so nice to know
That my freedom to dream is my God given gift
That I then give to others. It’s not my concern
What they do with what is given. All that I learn
About life supports always a positive shift
In my thinking. In this simple way I must grow.

Many people dream big dreams and small, but often
Negative beliefs and definitions keep some
From pursuing them. What exactly holds them back
Are the reasons things won’t work and feelings of lack.
But with creative effort they can overcome
Self-defeating activity time and again.

Like a child I have always been… quite immature
In the ways of the real world. My dreams are my own.
But to share them with others in humility
Is by now what is left of the best part of me.
What I have done to others hurts me to the bone.
A most vivid pre life review I shall endure.

This is not the whole story that I hope to tell.
It indeed is unending as I reach the end
Of a physical chapter in eternity.
It’s an honor reporting how I came to be.
The more hell that I take now the less I will spend
Catching up on my karma. I yearn to be well.

All that I dare to dream has already come true
In the moment that I realize it is so.
So, to now keep my focus on the final one
I have faith that I will get a whole lot more done
In the way of atonement. This life of sorrow
Is an elegant picture of what not to do.

Dwell Therein

Creation Is An Inside Job

This incredible story is worthwhile to share.
It’s about visualization as a way
To allow dreams and wants become reality.
Our imaginal acts cause things to come to be.
Through our conscious play acting, we can, day by day,
Build a life that is prosperous beyond compare.

A couple bought a lot some fifteen years ago
And upon it they built their new office and home.
Their intention to add an apartment complex
Had to be put on hold due to certain aspects
Of available funding. This irksome syndrome
They defeated completely through all that they know.

They became so descriptive regarding their dream.
They would imagine tenants and show them around.
Friends would visit and say how delighted they are.
Constantly they’d add texture. They’d go very far
To create that reality. This is profound
In its power to manifest in the extreme.

Like a sequel to Wonderland this tale turned out.
Everything became so for them just as perceived.
It took time. It did not happen quite overnight.
What’s of note is that their heart and spirit were right
In the place they must be so that what is achieved
Is done without the struggle and confounding doubt.

The Greatest Prayer

Words Of Power

If You Believe, You’ll Receive Whatever You Ask.
In this chapter of Matthew, so much is revealed
That transcends the religious. It’s Spiritual.
It depends on the willingness to be grateful
For what is not yet manifest. All can be healed
By this method of praying, if up to the task.

It’s reflected in science. In quantum physics,
The observer effect describes how one can change
Situations, objects, and personalities
Through the thought given to them. The power we seize
With a positive outlook is nothing so strange.
Religion and science are a fortunate mix.

Blessed Are Those Who’ve Not Seen, But Yet They Believe.
This is the main ingredient of any prayer.

We receive what is given from life eternal –
The most generous giver of large things and small.
What Is Asked For Is Given. Feeling must be there.
The strength of our excitement is how we receive.

Disregard the appearance of what doesn’t match
Your picture of perfection of how things should be.
Thought Transmission creates within what is observed
The appropriate changes that are most deserved
Both observed and observer are linked completely
As thoughts turn into reality with dispatch.

The Game Of Satisfaction

The Game Of Happy Living

As I’m having a good time and things go my way,
I delight in the process and manifest more
In the way of fulfillment. I may go along
Until some ‘what if’ happens and something goes wrong
When I’m faced with an issue that I can’t ignore
Then I must find the best way to feel more ok.

History and old habits have nothing to do
With the new ever presence that this moment holds.
My thoughts are where I left them last, and there they stay
And become a trip hazard some God awful day.
Do I have any say in how my life unfolds?
Getting rid of the old stuff makes room for what’s new.

I can stop the self-sabotage. I’ll think about
The issue in a way that feels better by far
Than the dwelling upon it. ‘What if’s’ can be good.
A game can be made of life that is understood
To leave me in contentment. The way that things are
Shall evolve as they should. I have nary a doubt.

So, I do keep a journal; this one and one more
With a line down the center and separate sides.
On the satisfied half go all happy events.
On the other, the troubled heart and its contents.
Putting them in a new place, I’m making great strides
In my human development – none like before.

Are Other People Real?

The Plasticity Apparent

This question that I must ask of my consciousness,
Wide awake and with focus upon humankind,
May be moot to most others who would call insane
Anyone who would ask it. Within their disdain
Is the key to the answer. Relief may I find
In engaging my asking, but not to excess.

People never are as I perceive them to be.
 Each of us wants to mold into specific shape
What we know through the senses. So, reality
Is just how I perceive it. And this I do see
As a fact most confounding. Is there an escape
From the pit of inscrutable uncertainty?

When connected to spirit, I see through the eyes
Of the source of all of us. The realer they are
They may rise to the image I see as their best.
They’re as real as I make them. This begs to suggest
That the eye that beholds others is just as far
From the truth, as imagined. My, what a surprise!

Chains of Pain are created through my observing
What I don’t care to look at, then adding to it
Some more doubt and confusion plus firm evidence
Of a flaw in the fabric of my existence.
The eye of the beholder sees what it sees fit
To be worthy and justified in its being.

How Life Enters The Body

Intra-Cosmic Gestation

The realm of the eternal is where all come from.
Aliens of the spirit descend and take hold
Of this time space reality within bodies
To remain for a brief while as flesh entities.
Here to know one another in ways manifold,
The experience can be difficult for some.

Every being has free will. Decisions are made
But can change at an instant, and nature responds
To the slight imperfections in the energy
Of the person becoming someone all can see.
Sometimes spirit and body cannot hold their bonds
And stillbirth leaves the mother and father dismayed.

Once our mothers expecting were pampered a lot.
Nowadays, they keep working. “It’s not a big deal!”
…But it was to the ancients. Women who were wise

Knew that comfort and pleasantness would crystalize
In the soul of the fetus a friendlier feel.
It still owns the decision to be here or not.

In the scull, there’s a front door… a trap door it was
At the time of our infancy. It was soft skin –
Not of hard bone, but supple, All exit through there.
Until then, our survival is treaded with care.
Now that I know I’m stuck here, it’s time to begin
Living out what was intended by the first cause.

What The Mind Is Made For

Maintaining the Mental Machine

Nothing goes anywhere when the mind has begun
A cacophonous symphony of confusion.
It stays right where the rest of me happens to be.
Body, mind, and the spirit are all parts of me.
They exist in proximity and act as one.
Even though nothing travels, much of it is done.

So, it’s just an illusion – my taking a ride
On the long mental freeway with exits galore.
Though I’m not really moving, I get motion sick.
Am I the only one who can do such a trick?
I don’t mind that it races. Places I abhor
That it chooses to visit as peace I’m denied.

Why this happens is because I’ve identified
With things that are not me, and there’s no other way
To live life without clinging to identities.
It becomes a big forest with too many trees
To be dealt with even on a fairly good day.
For this reason the mind cannot be the best guide.

The mind is made to give life ample clarity
And deep penetration into experience
But without getting hung up on too many things.
Distance from what the mind is doing often brings
Some relief from the chatter which can get intense.
What The Mind Is Made For is to help me to be.

Evolution Through Disruption

The Cost Of Living Buisness

All the worst of my problems alone I create
Through the master controller of identity
On the personal level. I’m doomed to attack.
For the rest of my life here I’ll just watch my back.
Evil doesn’t become me, but insanity
Seems to be what consumes me and authors my fate.

The abstracted part of me – the self not made whole –
Is only form identity. It’s not the same
As the timeless consciousness that I am truly.
Everyone is that essence with none else to be.
With this form I am subject to sorrow and shame
That I feel often times to the depths of my soul.

Oneself can’t be perfected. It’s like whack-a-mole.
Once things are put to order, something falls apart.
Never ending the struggle it is to portray
A complete living model. And I must obey
The aspect of disruption. It strengthens my heart
Just to know of the sick truth I cannot control.

Evolution of consciousness cannot take place
In a world picture perfect with no suffering.
One would dance on the surface of life and not grow.
Compassion and deep insights one can’t come to know.
Disruption in my life is a wonderful thing
If I can learn to trust it as God’s loving grace.

The Healers

Caretakers Of Humanity

Recognizing The Healers among us for me
Is an easy thing simply because I am one.
Most descriptions of INFP’s, as we’re called,
Say that all that can keep us forever enthralled
Are the things of the spirit. Indeed we have fun
While exploring the human soul… usually.

Introverted, Intuitive, Feeling, (one more)
And Perceiving – these four words are the acronym
For we INFP types. Does this make me proud?
Quite in spite of my ego, to life I’m avowed.
Darkness like the horrendous scourge of racism
Is but fuel for enlightenment. It’s not a bore.

We love speaking in parables and metaphors.
Inventing fresh new symbols to share our ideals,
We are at our creative best. Keen rhetoric
Fascinates us to no end, and our minds are quick.
The slow speed of mere lightning is not that which heals.
Infinite is the frequency spirit endures.

We become overwhelmed often, and we do err
Because we are as human as all humankind.
Altruistic are we, and we’re misunderstood.
One’s perfected morality is for the good
Of the soul of the planet. The task we’re assigned
Is to process experiences and to share.
