Be Who You Were Made To Be

Jul26

Happy To Be

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

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

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

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

Crank Up The Momentum

Dec22

Go For The Thrill

I imagined a day filled with fun and laughter,
And it was so. I set myself up for feeling
Absolutely fantastic, and it came to be.
I experienced moments of sheer ecstasy.
I look forward only to what is appealing.
In this way, I’m an efficient feeling crafter.

There had been no subterfuge to the momentum
Created by my wanting my day to go well.
“I like this, and I like this also.” This is how
I was able to bring power into my now.
Being happy is like casting a magic spell
On myself. Much resistance I have overcome.

In the past, I had lived life quite differently.
“I like this, but not that so much,” I would express
To the listening universe. I would receive
So much of ‘not that so much’ that I would believe
Not that much is worth liking. I would acquiesce
To the false notion that something is wrong with me.

It’s like priming a pump. I create a vacuum
To draw forth the good feelings and keep them coming.
Once the water gets moving, it will continue.
There is little more efforting I need to do.
I believe that I do have adequate plumbing
For the well. It’s a factor that I must assume.
