Negative Energy

Sometimes I’m in the presence of people who are
Not quite so positive thinking and sometimes I
Can’t even come up with something helpful to say.
Should I say nothing, turn around, and walk away?
That would be nasty of me. Perhaps I should try
To accept where they’re coming from though it’s quite far.

If negative people are driving you nuts it’s
Because you’re wobbly. Unsure of your vibration,
You may look for positive energy in those
Around you but you must remain in the shadows
If you’re the one who’s causing the aggravation.
Be thankful for your silence and its benefits.

Stand in the midst of something that’s not positive
And look for the nugget in it. You might receive
An answer to the question or issue at hand.
You’re the one in the long run who must understand
That a state of immunity you can achieve
By deciding that happily you want to live.

People who are annoying are just going through
Something all of us go through from time to time, so
Accept it as a fact of human behavior.
Let the positive within you be your savior.
Do what it takes to allow your spirit to grow.
You control ultimately what happens with you.

A Bedtime Process

Apr8

Before bedtime you want to get yourself into
A relaxed state. You want to release all the stress
That has been building up throughout your busy day.
Take some time to reflect on how things went your way.
Think of all the things that brought you some happiness.
Doing this before bedtime will benefit you.

Many things have occurred throughout your day so you
May remember things that were not very pleasant
But keep your focus on all the things that went well.
You know that by the way that you feel you can tell
How you’re doing with becoming nonresistant
In preparing yourself for a sleep rendezvous.

While your in bed try to recall some of the most
Uplifting things that happened then isolate one
And ponder it. Milk it for everything it’s got.
This process doesn’t really require a whole lot
Of effort on your part. It’s so easily done
That it’s possible to become fully engrossed.

Say to yourself, “I’m going to sleep now and I
Want to sleep well and wake up refreshed with a new
Wholesome feeling positive point of attraction.”
When you’ve made your intent to your satisfaction
Off to sleep you go. The next day will be for you
One in which throughout most of it you’re flying high.

Have Fun With It Or Let It Go

Apr4

What happens when Source Energy flows to something
Through you? It expands. It becomes interesting.
It gathers more cooperative components.
Momentum then increases. As a consequence
Nothing but fun and whatever makes your heart sing
Happens for you. You know what happiness can bring.

That’s just what happens when you focus intently
In each moment on how you feel knowing that you
Have the freedom to feel any way that you choose.
You think only thoughts that will uplift and amuse
Your adventurous spirit. You know what is true
To your heart which is that you should live happily.

If you’re not having a good time with it then it’s
Evoking effort from you and your energy
Is depleted which prevents you from having fun
Yet Source Energy flows freely to everyone.
In alignment with this energy you must be
In order to receive some of its benefits.

Have Fun With It Or Let It Go. Sometimes it’s best
To shift your attention to something completely
Different from what you’re doing and where you are.
Your state of alignment is never very far
From achieving and it can be done easily.
You’re magnificent when your best self is expressed.

The Science Of Gratitude

Mar8

By adopting an attitude of gratitude
You improve your wellbeing, increase happiness,
And promote healthy interactions with others.
Anyone who’s had sisters, brothers, or mothers
Knows one thing about gratitude – it relieves stress
And it does wonders for elevating one’s mood.

People who purposefully appreciate more
Have reported that they have higher self-esteem
Than those who don’t so much. The science doesn’t lie.
For this reason you should give gratitude a try.
You’ll have blessings coming to you in the extreme.
Think of all the many things that you’re grateful for.

People who capture grateful thoughts before they sleep
Will sleep better than those who don’t. Why is this so?
Gratitude actually does rewire the brain.
Chemical interactions therein help you gain
Some momentum so that you’re allowing the flow
Of feelings and memories that you get to keep.

The good feeling neurotransmitters activate
The bliss center of the brain. Regular practice
Of being happy trains your prefrontal cortex
In a manner that often seems very complex.
Say to yourself, “It doesn’t get better than this!”
Gratitude is a wonderful way to feel great.

What’s Life All About?

Mar7

Life is not about being right. It’s more about
Being kind. If you’re given the choice to be right
Or to be kind choose kindness. It makes you feel good.
Being right doesn’t always work out as it should.
Life is not about getting yourself all uptight
Over things to the point where you simply freak out.

And life is not about proving anyone wrong.
It’s about proving yourself right. It’s not about
Competing against others. It’s more about you
Competing against yourself to bring yourself to
An improved self – one which others nor you can doubt.
It’s about growing and becoming ever strong.

Life’s about being happy – not being perfect.
It’s about making sure you’re experiencing,
Learning, loving, and developing who you are.
You know that being happy is better by far
Than the feeling that you don’t deserve a damned thing.
Life demands that you cultivate some self-respect.

Money’s great but only when used with positive
Intentions. It’s alright to want it but don’t stress
Over it. You can’t take it with you anyway.
Your upliftment of others will brighten each day
Of your life. You’re meant to live one of happiness.
You receive in accordance with how much you give.

Negativity

Jan31

When you ask, it is given, but you must allow
It to come by being in the receptive mode
And your asking must be from a positive state.
If you operate from a position of hate
Then upon you nothing but dismay is bestowed.
Your Negativity must be dealt with somehow.

Negative emotion is a way of asking
For what you want but what you will get in return
Is the same messed up energy. You become more
Ornery. Everything will be just as before.
Give yourself permission not to be so concerned
With conditions because they don’t mean anything.

You just want to feel good. Who can’t understand that?
Negative emotion is a blessing to you.
It tells you that you’re nowhere near being happy
But from there you can get to where you want to be
By reaching for a better thought. This you can do
No matter the situation or where you’re at.

If you’re stuck in the asking mode get yourself free
By shifting your attention away from the thing
That causes you to forget who you really are.
Your true essence is that of a bright shining star.
Get your mind off of whatever is happening
Long enough to recover your humanity.

A Bedtime Process

Dec15

It’s because of your action orientation
That you want to believe that it takes hard work to
Make things happen but as you learn to direct your
Thoughts deliberately you’ll find that you’ll have more
Power and leverage. So much more you can do
With your focus. It’s your creative foundation.

You can focus your thoughts more consistently in
The direction of your heart’s desire rather than
Squandering the power of your thought by thinking
Opposite to what you want. Like a ship sinking
It may be hard to rescue good thoughts but they can
Be recovered. Right now’s a good time to begin.

Once you’re in bed try to recall some of the most
Pleasant things that occurred today. There may be some
Things that happened that were a lot less than okay
But direct your intention. Do your best to stay
Focused on something that you got some pleasure from.
Find a good thought in which you can become engrossed.

Ponder it when you find it. Prime your positive
Pump by saying things such as, “This day was alright.
I like how that thing happened to turn out the way
That I wanted.” Recall the best parts of your day
Then you will have a most restful sleep through the night.
In the morning you will have your best self to give.

Avoid Negative Energy

Nov27

Like a virus it’s caught. It affects everyone
On the planet. To have negative energy
Is the human condition. Like the common cold
Negative energy has a lethal stronghold
On humanity. Is this the way it should be?
Should one worry about what on earth could be done?

What does one say when having a conversation
With someone with an attitude? You don’t want to
Agree with them or fight them so you say nothing
For a while because there’s nothing you want to bring
To that table but there is something you can do
And that is be aware of your own vibration.

Negative people are driving you nuts because
Your vibration is wobbly. You’re not sure about
Where you are in the moment. You need them to be
Positive so that you feel good basically
And when that doesn’t happen the more you will doubt
That the universe is governed by certain laws.

In the midst of something that’s not positive you
Can stand easily when you are in alignment.
Find the gold nugget in it. Give folks permission
To be negative. You can disarm anyone
With compassion. Your spiritual refinement
Is the upper edge people mostly respond to.

Give And Receive Positive Karma

Sep5

There are negative people in my life. So how
Can I stay positive? I can’t push them away
Because they consist of my friends and family.
I don’t want them to hold any grudge against me.
At the same time I know that myself I betray
If mistreatment from other people I allow.

If there are negative people in your life, you
Are attracting them. Don’t look at them. Look instead
At the energy you’re creating to attract
Them into your experience. You are in fact
In need of some adjustment. Make sure that you’re led
By your most evolved self in everything you do.

Sometimes you have to divorce your negative friends,
Family members, and anyone who thinks you
Are someone who accepts abuse naturally.
Tell the straight up. The only way you will get free
Of their influence is to hold fast to what’s true
And to what your innermost being recommends.

How can you serve and be the most loving person
You can be? How does your love affect people’s lives?
Change your thought and the negative energy will
Dissipate and the people that were such a pill
Will adjust as the most evolved part of you strives
For some balance and spiritual perfection.

Life Is What You Make It

May25

There are a lot of things we miss that we pass by
That if we could just make a point to see them would
Add tremendous value to our lives. Your problem
Is your gift. Any disappointments you have stem
From the notion that life is hard. That’s a falsehood
Life will always be what you make it. That’s no lie.

All the situations that push us back or knock
The wind out of us are the same situations
That have all the potential to move us forward.
What you can do about life cannot be ignored.
You can do much with positive affirmations.
When the blessings occur it should come as no shock.

No one is positive all the time, but it’s not
Impossible to see the value in every
Situation – to take what the world throws at you
And with your creative prowess turn it into
Your advantage. You are positive energy.
Your journey to fulfillment can be a straight shot.

Life’s greatest accomplishments were not always on
Some grand pedestal always cherished and admired.
They were built on the back of doubt, difficulty,
And hardship. You can transform negativity
Into strong expectation of what is desired.
You have your guidance system to rely upon.

Integrity

May13

Integrity is the quality of having
Strong ethical or moral principles. It means
Following them at all times. It’s a positive
Character trait. It is a wholesome way to live.
It would be nice if it were a part of our genes.
It can be nothing but a most wonderful thing.

It is the bedrock upon which good character
Is built, where one understands, accepts, and chooses
To live in accordance with one’s own principles.
Life is made tolerable with loving spoonfuls
Of refreshing integrity. One excuses
Limitations of others as they may occur.

Choose the positive instead of the negative.
To treat others as you would like to be treated
And to take personal responsibility
For your own life experience naturally
Brings about and awareness that’s deeply seated
In the heart of compassion for how others live.

Every act of kindness, love, consideration,
Forgiveness, or compassion affects everyone.
There’s that which leads to truth, love, life, wholeness, and God,
And there’s that which leads to one hell of a façade.
Spiritual discernment is the solution
To the issue of ego wherein there is none.

Virtue

May12

Virtue is behavior that displays in someone
A high ethical standard. It’s a quality
Or character trait considered morally good
And desirable in a person, so it should
Come as no surprise that among society
It’s seen as a wholesomely healthy condition.

Virtues are valued as they promote collective
And individual greatness. There are many
Virtues and classifications of them, but they all
Are positive. No kind act is ever too small.
It is taught in some branches of philosophy.
Those who are virtuous have a love perspective.

Virtues are positive actions or traits that aid
In undoing or purifying negative
Karma or sin. They can be practiced outwardly
Or inwardly. One progresses ultimately
To enlightenment. No one tells one how to live,
And the words spoken here are not meant to persuade.

Establishing a higher guiding principle
Or mindset such as right view, right concentration,
Or right mindfulness is the quest of the one who
Seeks the truth of one’s being. Ultimate value
There is in being virtuous. The creation
Of virtue in your life is to all meaningful.

Set Your Day For Magic

Jan29

There’s what needs to be fixed, and then there’s your desire.
Put your attention on that which is easier
And more fun to accomplish. Orientation
Toward making things happen gets not much work done.
There is tremendous leverage and great power
In your thoughts. Not a bit of work does it require.

Your action orientation in life causes
You to think that it takes hard work to get things done.
But as you learn to deliberately direct
Your thoughts, things working out quite well you can expect.
Focus more consistently in the direction
Of your wishes. Forget all about what was is.

Trying or working too hard is not the best way
To accomplish things. Prepare your day for magic.
Before bedtime the night before while still in bed
Let the things you appreciate drift through your head.
Fall asleep in a good state. This will do the trick
Of creating for yourself a wonderful day.

Prime your positive pump by saying sorts of things
That accentuate how you felt. Stick to your goal
Of remembering all the good things that occurred
Through the day. There’s no way one can call this absurd.
Once you get really good at this, you’ll have control
Of your day’s most eventful and fun happenings.

Negativity

Dec30

Negative situations scare the heck out of
Timid people and those overly sensitive
To contrasting environments. Then there are those
Who get off on the drama. Conflict among foes
Provides sound entertainment. They don’t seem to give
A rat’s ass about anything centered in love.

People can be annoying when they lose control
Of their tempers, yet one cannot practice disdain
For disgusting behavior. We all have been there.
One who never gets angry is someone quite rare.
Show some love and compassion and you will attain
Peace of mind. Know that you can play no major role.

Give people permission to feel their negative
Emotion, then yourself you will be kinder to.
Try to look for the nugget and appreciate
Its existence. Your reality you create
From the contrast that living often puts you through.
Do not concern yourself with the lives others live.

Embrace and revel in the variety here.
Allow people the sense that all of it makes sense.
The less you focus on it, the less active it
Will be in your vibration. The more you permit
Understanding, the less you’ll require a defense.
Things are not as negative as they may appear.

Have Fun With It, Or Let It Go

Dec7

Good advice comes in handy when I’m not at ease.
If for whatever reason I choose to believe
That I must make things happen, it happens to be
Just the one little thing that is preventing me
From a fruitful encounter. If I can’t achieve
Whatever, then it’s best that it’s cast to the breeze.

As long as I am having fun with it, then the
Momentum is most positive, and it will grow
Into something substantial, which is a good thing.
Something is wrong when I feel myself efforting
Through the process. My conscience is letting me know
That I can be as happy as I want to be.

Energy flows toward anything. When it does
Through me personally, it begins to expand
Into something more interesting. It gathers
Cooperative Components as it slathers
Me with ever more confidence. What I command
Is a power that venerates me just because.

Have Fun With It, Or Let It Go. This fine advice
Applies to people, places, ideas, and things.
My focus is of value. It is not to waste.
My attention to something cannot be misplaced
On potentially unfulfilling happenings.
I’ll avoid conditions that are meant to entice.

Negative People

Nov4

Negative People bug me. Their harsh energy
Is upsetting and dangerous. What can I do?
Should I say nothing to them? Should I stay away
From them altogether? Do I accept that they
Have a right to their feelings? How do I get through
Having to be around them perpetually?

I should be stable enough that I don’t need the
Condition to be perfect in order to be
In alignment. There is such a freedom in that.
There’s no time for engaging in negative chat.
But, within the contrast, am I able to see
That the people that bug me are the same as me?

We’re all in this together. I have had my days
Of disaster because of my negative mood.
So, I can well relate to where they’re coming from.
Can I set an example and somehow become
The answer to their problems with my attitude?
Perhaps so. I can be helpful in many ways.

Negative emotion cannot be a bad thing.
It’s the starting point of the creative process.
I feel appreciation for its existence.
Through my disposition I can be of immense
Benefit to the circumstance. I acquiesce
And acknowledge what positive feelings can bring.

The Power Of Now

Oct6

No matter where you’re standing, if it’s not pleasing
To you, just remind yourself that it isn’t done.
And then take the emotional journey and show
Yourself how you can put ease along with gusto
In your experience. Your point of attraction
Is Right Now. It’s the only moment worth seizing.

Everything is actualizing around you
In this moment – not yesterday or tomorrow.
All responds to your vibrational output Now.
You attract things to you, but you may not know how
To stay focused on things that don’t bring you sorrow.
Happiness is the state that makes wishes come true.

All of your power is Now. Think about what you’re
Doing to tomorrow when you’re feeling good Now.
You affect the day after and months down the line.
You emit a vibration that will by design
Bring good manifestations, but you must allow
Yourself to believe that life is an adventure.

Tomorrow never comes because when it gets here
It’s today. The next moment can never exist.
It is always the present. Appreciation
For this moment is most clearly the solution
To all problems. The challenge is less to resist
Living outside the present where all does appear.

Everything I Want Just Comes To Me

Aug11

Relief has the same feeling as satisfaction.
They are both indicators that I’ve succeeded
In deactivating any stray resistance
In my vibration. I feel this way not by chance
But by practice. It’s by how I feel that I’m led.
From this place of alignment my whole life is run.

I’m allowing my inner being to call me
To completion, but that isn’t quite the right word
Manifestations eventually occur
In abundance. Life does treat me as if I were
Someone special. To it I feel that I’m preferred.
I live for feeling aligned vibrationally.

I no longer set goals. Things come most easily
With the least bit of effort. I’ve an oblique view
And an understanding that things always work out.
I have long since released fears and crippling doubt.
Spiritually, all things I’ve wanted accrue.
I just need to be open and resistance free.

Manifestations are secondary to me.
I am hooked on the feeling of being aligned
With my innermost being. When I’m in that space
I make peace with the world, and by infinite grace,
Everything I Want Just Comes To Me, and I find
It to be a satisfying reality.

Facing Your Fears

Jul11

Deep down everyone is afraid. When you don’t face
What you fear, much of life you are missing out on.
That you could have, or should have, or would have is the
Saddest way to sum up your life. Don’t let it be
The thing that holds you back until your life is gone.
Take each step at a time as you steady your pace.

Life can be overwhelming especially when
You are not in a good place to handle it well.
Each little success will increase your confidence.
Break humongous things down so that they make more sense.
It is not good for you to remain in your shell.
This applies equally to both women and men.

Get professional advice. To yourself be kind.
Get whatever support you need. Accentuate
What is going well. You can rewrite your story
To exactly the way that you want things to be
But you must face your fear in order to create
Any further. You must be with yourself aligned.

When your brain is not well oxygenated things
Will feel much worse than they really are. Helplessness
And paralysis keep you in the negative
Reinforcing mentality. Decide to live
To your fullest. You intended for nothing less
Than to live upon this earth as do queens and kings.

Outside The Box

Jul7

Each one of us on earth is a facet of the
Multidimensional Crystal Of Creation.
Consciousness we are given to make us aware
That we are that, but some folks are caught in the snare
Of a box of beliefs that could well weigh a ton.
It allows not the creative mind to be free.

Thinking Outside The Box means thinking in a way
That expands creativity and consciousness.
It is a permission slip to experience
Getting close to the higher mind in present tense.
Balance and connectivity one can access
Any moment. One gets better with each new day.

Move your consciousness so that it exists halfway
Between your higher mind and your physical one.
From this vantage point you’re in a specific state
That allows understanding. From there you create
Brilliantly without effort and with lots of fun.
The Crystal you’re part of is a psychic bouquet.

Our belief systems are needed to reinforce
What we call our reality. Nothing exists.
In the physical universe. It’s all spirit.
Hold only those that are to your benefit.
One is trapped by what one’s belief system insists.
Take a really good look at those that you endorse.

Just A Few Laughs Away

Mar26

All because of the context in which I’m focused,
Understanding who I am I take on with glee.
I like nitty gritty experiences where
I acknowledge that things could be better, and there
Is a trust that I feel that no harm comes to me.
If I can find some laughter in life, it is just.

I make too much of all of this. Life should be fun.
If I lighten up more I’ll find humor in things.
I’m too hard on myself in my relationship
With where I want to be. Misery I can skip
If I make peace with where I am. Many blessings
Are available to me, the determined one.

I’ll play down all the negative things about me
And play up everything positive I can find
In a life punctuated with so much disgust.
How I wish I were able to turn it to dust
But I can’t so I’m forced to just leave it behind.
In my next life I shall behave differently.

I must know that the universe will yield to me
All that I’ve created both now and forever.
Were I given a glimpse of the aerial view
Of my life’s full potential, I wouldn’t be blue.
I would be laughing insanely at whatever.
I’m already crazy. The rest comes easily.

Get Out Of Trouble

Mar24

Ominous is the feeling that cripples my soul.
What may happen is dreadful. I can’t think about
Devastation, poverty, and deep emptiness.
If I’m so out of balance and crippled with stress
Over what I’ve created, there is little doubt
That I can get a grip and take back some control.

How can I shift my frequency, when in despair,
To one higher, if that is even possible?
Luckily it can be done without going mad
Through a process and promise that is ironclad.
I can save my own life if I am docible
Of the logic of wellbeing which isn’t rare.

Everything is a lesson. Each experience
Is for me a perfect opportunity to
Let myself be the best student that I can be.
I would gain some awareness of dark parts of me.
Giving up is the worst thing on earth I could do.
Nonexistence is futile and doesn’t make sense.

To say that it’s too difficult reinforces
My belief that it’s difficult. I can divest
Myself of negative thoughts about what is taught.
If I see myself in others, I won’t be caught
In the trap of hopelessness. This life is the test.
Its curriculum consists of many courses.

The Sieves Of Judgement

Jan29

“There is someone among us who is unworthy,”
Said a young man to the old and wise Socrates.
“A disreputable person he is clearly.
When I tell you what he is doing you will see
That our group cannot tolerate folk such as these.
I’ve told you. You can take measures necessary.”

“Before I will do anything you must tell me
If what you say is true. Did you see it first hand?
Or is it only something that you overheard?”
Socrates asked the man who had only one word
Which was ‘No.’ “Then the sieve of truth it cannot stand,”
Said the wise one. “You may have to let this one be.”

“Will you tell me of something good or positive
About this man, or are you here to tell me things
About him that are nasty? If it’s the latter
Then it is best for you to ignore the matter.
The sieve of goodness cancels out your utterings.
Go about your own business and let the man live.”

“What are you so excited about anyway?
Is it that necessary to come to tell me
Of this thing most upsetting?” The man bowed in shame
And retracted his story which now seemed quite lame.
Before dispensing gossip will it pass freely
Through the three sieves of judgement? Take care what you say.

Negative People

Oct8

One could claim the excuse, “Everyone is this way.
All the world is uptight. More things get on our nerves
Than we can safely handle. So, why not complain?”
When in fact they’re just negative, though not insane.
Every step in the process of living deserves
Its own way of expressing its acquired dismay.

If I find myself caught in the midst of a few
Who are ‘not in alignment’ with all that they should,
It could only mean I’ve got a wobble in mine.
If I need them to act right so I can feel fine,
Misery will be with me, and that is not good.
All it means is that there is some work I must do.

They’re still in the hard asking mode, so they may ask
Really good questions. And I’ll receive the answers
A lot better. I know that I’m stable enough
That I don’t need conditions. The heck with that stuff.
It would be like relying on mood enhancers
That wear off without notice. One’s life is a task.

Giving folks the permission to feel what they must
Gives me also the ok to be negative.
All of it makes the world go round. All is a part
Of the whole of existence. Magnificent art
Is where one is more able to bless and forgive.
One need not endure torment. One need only trust.
