Stops Along The Way

Punctuated Routes

On the journey to what I think makes my life whole
And complete, there are many detours and places
To be checkpointed. Thank God for my GPS
For without it my life would be a total mess.
At each stop there are things that my heart embraces
Such that I’m not that bothered with reaching my goal.

Sometimes I’ll find myself on my way to some things.
Often my inner being will lead me to an
Experience that will help me to activate
And fine tune my vibration wherein I create
The best moment, then the next… I know that I can
Be aligned with the blessings each new moment brings.

I can look there and not find it then look elsewhere
And still not find it before I finally do.
All those places where I looked before were not wrong.
They’re all part of a fun game. As I play along
Blessings seem to be coming from out of the blue.
I honor the existence of both here and there.

Where I am is sufficient for getting where I
Want to be because I always have access to
Inner guidance. It tells me when I’m way off track.
My emotions offer me tremendous feedback.
Any place is the right place as long as I do
What it takes without my having to wonder why.

Learn To Be Alone

Perfect Solitude

Alone time increases empathy. When you spend
Time with your circle of friends, you may get into
A ‘we versus them’ kind of a mentality.
Spending time alone truly will help you to be
More compassionate with all other people who
Aren’t in your inner circle. To all you’re a friend.

Solitude can increase your productivity.
There’s a reason why lots of authors and artists
Want to live in log cabins far out in the woods.
They can see that nature can deliver the goods.
Inspiration comes from everything that exists.
From the chatter of others you set yourself free.

People are social creatures, and it’s important
In our lives to have strong connections with others.
But it’s also important to spend time alone.
Of the many studies conducted, all have shown
That an increase in life satisfaction occurs
When you take time to be alone. Don’t say you can’t.

Simply sit and do nothing but take in the air.
The mind’s chatter will gradually dissipate.
For a day or so, stay completely out of touch.
Everyone will respect that you’re caring this much
About your health, which cannot be up for debate.
Of yourself you become much more deeply aware.
