Life Mantra

There’s a stream that is flowing on behalf of you.
Stop trying so hard to go in opposition
To the current. If you relax, off you will go
To magnificent places. The stream wants to show
You the dreams of yours that have come to fruition.
Take advantage of all that you have coming due.

This stream is powerful. It insists that you go
Along with it. You have to work hard to not to.
No matter how you’re living in this physical
World experience the Law of Attraction shall
Keep the stream moving swiftly. All you need to do
Is apply all the information you now know.

You know of your ability and worthiness
Along with all the techniques to help you achieve
Alignment with your higher self. Meditation
Is a big one along with appreciation
For what you have now. You’re in the mode to receive
Inspiration and such leading to your success.

“I’m going to reach for the best feeling thought I
Can find from where I am right now – not the best thought
That I’ve ever thought.” This thinking turns you around
In your stream. Much excitement and fun can be found
When the more vulnerable part of you is brought
Into alignment with the part who’s flying high.

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.

Life Is Supposed To Be Good

Feb1

You are Source Energy but just what does it mean?
A rose by any other name is still a rose.
It’s the energy of divine intelligence
That you’re made of. The power you have is immense.
It’s the same that creates worlds. A part of you knows
This without question despite the bad that you’ve seen.

Life Is Supposed To Be Good for you. If it’s not
Then it’s your doing. Your responsibility
Is to keep yourself happy any way you can.
You can always feel a little bit better than
You do now by deciding that you want to be
Happier. Your awareness does matter a lot.

What you’re living and feeling is all about how
Fast your stream is flowing and in which direction
You’re pointed in it. Over both you have control.
Life has caused your stream to flow. It must be your goal
To flow with it and remember your connection
To your true essence which only you can allow.

Don’t deny the person you’ve already become.
Stop preventing the current from carrying you
To your dreams. Let the stream gently turn you around.
Through surrender the power within you is found.
Look for fun and adventure in all that you do.
Take advantage of where all your blessings come from.

Life Is Supposed To Be Good

Dec12

I woke up this morning. I’m alive and quite well.
I was not taken hostage. My house is still here.
My children haven’t been slaughtered before my eyes.
I have no particular reason to despise
Anyone. I can walk the streets having no fear
Of abduction. I’ve no tragic story to tell.

What I know is that I’m made of Source Energy
As is everyone. Life Is Supposed To Be Good.
If it isn’t it’s my fault because everything
That I’m living and feeling and thus offering
To the universe cannot be misunderstood.
But if this is true why is there atrocity?

There’s no answer that anyone can understand.
Evil and hatred are part of humanity
But there’s much more wellbeing. The peace that I know
I’m most grateful for. As for the pain and sorrow
Suffered by others how much more sad can one be?
It’s damned awful. I stand with my heart in my hand.

There are only two factors – how fast my stream flows
And which way I’m pointed in it. Life has caused me
To make choices and that’s what gets the stream going.
If I let the stream turn me then I’ll be flowing
With it and not against it so naturally
I’m well protected from humankind and its woes.

Everything Is Downstream

Nov28

There’s a strong current moving in one direction.
It’s toward your wellbeing and all you desire.
You can go with the flow or you can go against
It but a whole lot of work needs to dispensed
In so doing and your yielding doesn’t require
Any effort. There’s no need for course correction.

So why do people want to paddle hard upstream?
It’s because our society teaches us that
Working hard is virtuous. We don’t want to be
Perceived as some mixture of foolish and lazy.
All the reasons you do so are worth looking at
Because they’re keeping you from fulfilling your dream.

When you say no to something you include it in
Your vibration which is your point of attraction
Just as when you say yes to something you invite
Subtle energies to bring your dream within sight.
Going downstream always leads to satisfaction.
When you push against something you never will win.

When you feel things like love and appreciation
The stream carries you. Without any resistance
On your part you move swiftly to everything you
Want in life and there’s nothing that you need to do
But relax and let your life be a joyful dance
And you’ll get along much better with everyone.

Let Go And Let God

Nov18

Long before all else fails why not put yourself in
A more trusting position? If you’re doing well
But you want more to happen you have to believe
That it will. The only thing you have to achieve
Is alignment with that which is ringing your bell.
Not to do so would be committing a grave sin.

Don’t take score about where your are. Trust the process.
If you make peace with where you are you will succeed
In the long run due to your improved attitude.
Let the spirit within you cause you to conclude
That all is well. You want to let go of the need
To keep measuring your spiritual progress.

Let go of the oars and let the boat turn around
So that it’s pointed downstream. There’s nothing upstream
That you want. Let how you feel determine the way
That your boat turns. Once it does it’s easy to stay
Pointed downstream where life can be lived like a dream.
In your surrendering control much can be found.

When you feel negative emotion it means that
Your boat is pointed upstream. Find some way to find
Some relief from the opposition and the stress.
To the minds who create worlds you have full access.
As you Let Go And Let God you’ll be more inclined
To feel better. Is this not something to look at?

Everything Is Down Streaam

Sep9

There’s a strong current flowing. It’s created by
A whole lifetime of wanting. It’s calling you to
Take you to what you’ve asked for and if you decide
To go down to the river’s edge and take a ride
You will be most delighted by where it takes you.
If you didn’t go for it one would wonder why.

If your turn your boat deliberately upstream
And start paddling profusely someone may ask you,
“Why not turn your boat around and go with the flow?”
But many people do it. They don’t seem to know
Any better yet there are a fortunate few
Where the ride down the river yields pleasure supreme.

We’ve been trained to struggle hard against the current
And it’s noble to do so. It is virtuous
To work oneself to pieces. There’s nothing that you
Want that’s upstream. For all the hard work that you do
Satisfaction is something you cannot discuss
Due to your being in a state of discontent.

Everything that you want is downstream. Just let go
Of the oars and let the current turn you around
In the proper direction to carry you to
Everything that you’re wanting. Your dreams will come true.
Take pleasure in the new sense of freedom you’ve found
All because you’ve decided to go with the flow.

Laws And Tools

Jun10

Many laws of the universe there are and they
Are consistent. The physics of gravity and
Inertia are examples of laws that apply
To all physical objects. No thing can defy
The power of such laws. All one can understand
Is that they are a big part of everyone’s day.

There’s one which has been called the Law of Attraction.
There’s not all that much to it. It’s not a huge deal
For the one who is ready to take full command
Of one’s life. First and foremost one must understand
That attracting is all about feeling with zeal
One’s desires until they’ve reached manifestation.

The law of deliberate creation is not
A law. It’s an activity. It’s a focus
And a tool for fulfillment of one’s heart’s desire.
It takes no effort at all for one to acquire
The mindset that is needed for a glorious
Transformation which can never cost one a lot.

The law of allowing is not actually
A law. It’s the accomplishment of something called
A vibration which is one’s point of attraction.
If it’s done well it leads to one’s satisfaction.
Life is awesome when one is completely enthralled
And consumed with creating their reality.

Let The Stream Carry You

Apr6

There’s this stream, and it’s powerful. You are in it.
It will carry you to everything you desire.
No matter how you’re living, eventually,
You will go with the current, and to the degree
You oppose it, the things you want you can’t acquire.
This stream is in existence for your benefit.

When you die you will get to your destination
In one fell swoop, but while you’re alive you can be
Enjoying all the good things you find on the way
To forever. You can find delight in each day.
You can be determined to let go completely
Of the struggle which causes your consternation.

Negative emotion means that you’re competing
With the powerful current. Let it inform you
That you’re doing so. It’s just an indicator.
Acknowledge it because you are the creator
Of your experience. You’re the only one who
Can decide which of your thoughts are worth deleting.

You can reach for the best feeling thought you can find
In the moment from where you are, and in this way
You relax and allow the current to turn you
Back around. It’s an easy thing for you to do.
In alignment with the awesome current you’ll stay.
When you go with the flow you leave troubles behind.

Stay In Alignment In Difficult Times

Mar20

I feel best when I have those moments where things that
Used to mess with me hugely do not anymore.
I can handle things quite well. Not much bothers me.
I believe meditation has helped me to be
More connected to spirit than I’d been before.
I am more discerning about things I look at.

But the question is, regarding the bigger things
That I have no control of, how can I remain
In alignment with spirit? The world and its woes
Are things I shouldn’t look at. They are but shadows
Of a vacant reality, so there’s no gain
In sustaining it. Only the happy heart sings.

It’s a difficult situation when someone
Who I love suddenly dies. The Source within me
Knows there is no death, and I can communicate
With those who are in spirit if I concentrate
On making the connection. I have to be free
Of emotional trauma before it is done.

Situations don’t have to control how I feel,
And I don’t have to blunder my way through the day
Unaware of my feelings. I get out ahead
Of the difficult issue by choosing instead
To selectively sift difficulty away.
In each moment I can find what is most ideal.

Think Of Yourself As Wealthy

Feb25

When you focus on something that’s bothering you,
Or you push against something, notice what happens
To your energy. It feels like there’s a big hole
In your gut, but you do know that you have control
Of your feelings. You can see your life through the lens
Of alignment with all in your world that you do.

Find a thought that feels better. You can find a way
To bring your energy back to where it belongs.
Your point of attraction is how you are feeling
From moment to moment. So, how are you dealing
With your life? Is it an issue of righting wrongs?
In a positive place is where you want to stay.

Whatever you’re focused on, real or imagined,
Causes you to vibrate. The universe accepts
This as your most intended point of attraction.
Once the Law of Attraction receives it, it is done.
Do not concern yourself with taking further steps.
You have to be spiritually disciplined.

For the universe you must create a vision
That it can believe easily. It doesn’t care
If it’s real or not. It will respond just the same.
There are infinite resources that you can claim
As your own. It’s your job to be fully aware
Of your dream of abundance. It’s your decision.

Practiced Resistance

Feb18

If I put my boat into a fast-moving stream
And I flow with it, do I create the power
Of momentum? Or did I simply step into
What had already been going? Can both be true?
If I take on the consciousness of the flower,
Would I feel my existence as simply a dream?

When I’m in the natural stream of wellbeing,
I let go of all of my Practiced Resistance.
The power of the stream is within me, no doubt.
If I try to be powerful, it keeps me out.
Keeping myself delighted will greatly enhance
The adventure. The stream is ever agreeing.

I’ve stopped trying to figure things out anymore.
It indeed is a problem especially when
I am writing. Sometimes, I’m too much in my head.
I know that I should write from my feelings instead.
The words flow like the stream does. I’m satisfied then.
I have much less resistance than I had before.

I do this for the fun of it. All that I write
Is for pure entertainment. I’m not trying to
Convince anyone of anything, so feel free
To delight in the power that’s flowing through me.
If there are those who think that I haven’t a clue,
I’ve the freedom to not let it get me uptight.

You Are Mostly Vibration

Feb6

You’re a flesh and blood human being, this is true,
No one would dare refute it. You’re made of the stuff
Of the physical universe, but you’re also
Just the tip of an iceberg. The more that you know
About who you are truly, you will get enough
Out of life to significantly fulfill you.

You Are Mostly Vibration. It means that you are
Mostly spirit or essence – that which is unseen
But which transmits a signal that is received by
Others in your environment. One can’t deny
That vibration is real. One whose senses are keen
Is the one who is seen as grotesque and bizarre.

Your manifested body wants to manifest
In the physical. You want things to come to you.
So, let it be about how you feel for a while.
Don’t let negative thought put a cramp in your style,
And do not justify anything that you do.
Positivity in thinking must be expressed.

When you’re just in a happy place, things can occur
In spontaneous fashion. Good ideas flow
As well as inspiration. Things are working out
Without your need to see them… which indicates doubt.
That you have asked for it is all you need to know.
All that you have to do now is get happier.

It’s Your Doing

Jan21

You’re Source Energy in a physical body.
Life is meant to be good for you, and if it’s not,
Then It’s Your Doing. Everything that you’re living
And feeling is a good reason for thanksgiving.
Now that you are here, you can give it all you’ve got.
God is someone whose work one cannot call shoddy.

There are only two factors determining how
Life is going for you. One is how fast your stream
Is flowing, and the other is which direction
You are pointed. You have control over each one.
Life causes the momentum oft’ in the extreme.
The direction is by the guidance you allow.

When you’re bucking the current of who you’ve become,
You will feel negative emotion instantly.
You’re defying your purpose. This cannot feel good.
More than anything else, it must be understood
That going with the flow is your reason to be.
In becoming, you just need to lighten up some.

Turn and go with the flow. That’s all you need to do
To move effortlessly toward all you desire.
How to do that will be a perfect unfolding.
You are now practicing the art of allowing.
Unending are the good things that you will acquire
On your journey. Which direction is true for you?

Get Focused

Nov23

I see what a fantastic facilitator
Money is, but I find it hard to know how it
Feels to have it. I can’t ignore it completely,
Yet I should, because it beats the hell out of me
How to get money moving to my benefit.
I would like to become a better creator.

It is right to ignore it if I feel this way.
There’s a facilitator that’s more important
Than money. It’s alignment with source energy.
Money comes as the result. Opportunity
It affords me. There’s no law that says that I can’t
Just stay happy and carefree all throughout the day.

Alignment comes with focus. I have clarity
Regarding how I’m feeling in any moment.
Feeling is so important in how things evolve.
If I’m joyful then there are no problems to solve.
Worrisome, negative thoughts will surely prevent
Abundance to take notice and chase after me.

The pandemic of vibrational poverty
Is a bear to eradicate. I’ll focus not
On the person who angered me some while ago.
It is not the way to get energy to flow.
Where I focus my attention matters a lot.
Conscious awareness of this is what sets me free.

We Are Not Separate

Jul9

If I am I because you are you, and you are
You because I am I, then I am not I, and
You are not you. We’re not separate entities.
We define one another as the birds and bees.
Lean some sticks against one another. They will stand.
Remove one and all will fall. This can’t be bizarre.

We are interdependent systems. Together
We are one organism. Our skin separates
Not us from the world. It is a bridge through which the
World flows into and out of us, and exactly
Like a whirlpool, each part of us interrelates
As our form and a number of changes occur.

What you call the external world is as much you
As your body. The world creates you, and you it.
We can recognize one another the same way
That eternity captures existence for play.
We become wiser as a race if we submit
To this mind changing notion that’s ruggedly true.

Myths underlying our culture and common sense
Have not taught us to feel identical with the
Universe. Only parts of it we will engage.
The ‘external’ world can become a psychic cage.
Aliens we are to it if all can’t agree
To this one observation which is quite immense.

Listen To The Call Of Source

Jun7

Forces that create worlds come from one single source
Which is also inside you. It is all knowing.
Just beyond your awareness impulses received
Are those of constant guidance. Once you have achieved
Consciousness of your contact you won’t be owing
Anything to a thought stream that you can’t endorse.

Listen To The Call Of Source? But how does it sound?
It depends on where you are in aspect to it.
If appreciation is what you mostly feel
You’ll get shivers and goosebumps. You will not conceal
Your enormous excitement, but if there’s a bit
Of despair then revenge is all that may be found.

Only you know where you vibrate on the spectrum
Of emotion. Revenge may offer some relief
From bitter rage and anger. You can reach that place
Where you are most receptive to your source’s grace.
Do not let your analyzing become the thief
Of the life you deserve. That would be kind of dumb.

Get to that place where you are more hopeful than not.
It’s not hard. With some practice you’re on your way there.
Steady streams will be flowing of blessings and more.
Talk about things that feel good. The more you explore
What it is that excites you you’ll be more aware
Of that special connection that matters a lot.

My Question

Mar24

Some things I can’t believe. They don’t make any sense –
Like the human condition and why I exist.
Other things have some meaning when I’m feeling fine.
Enigmatic this world seems. Is it by design
That to question everything I cannot resist?
Should I not get some justice for my small expense?

Questions are left unanswered in this time and place.
Things that happen are left to the throw of the dice.
I cannot get excited about what goes on.
Certain signs of stability and truth are gone.
Why do people make the ultimate sacrifice?
I’m ashamed to be part of this sick human race.

It’s useless for me to keep my head in the sand.
Through the earth information seeps into my mind
Of the death and destruction. The utter despair
Is too much for me to say that I do not care
Because I’m not affected. Little I can find
To divert my attention. I don’t understand.

All I do know is that things are just as they are.
I’ll expend very little psychic energy
On the judgement of anything. Then I may find
That the answer is perfect for my simple mind.
It may be worth my best while to just let things be.
The next poem I write may be just as bizarre.

Focused Upon What Matters

Mar12

Focusing on what matters is the thing to do,
But just what in my boring life makes my heart sing
Loud enough that attention is not difficult?
Thinking too much about this yields no good result.
I appreciate what feeling better can bring
To the soul with some foolish reason to feel blue.

Knowing not what it feels like to have tons of wealth,
Need I waste time pursuing it? Much can be done
With a whole lot of money, but life energy
Is of ultimate value. My focus must be
On allowing its flowing by having more fun
And by developing habits that support health.

Energy and Alignment is my major aim.
Money and creature comforts are some byproducts
Of allowing the energy to freely flow.
How I feel about my life is how I best know
If I’m on or off track. If I feel my life sucks
Then I must change the way that I’m playing the game.

Infinite Energy is available to
Anyone who allows it. It can be pinched off
By joining some crusade that involves being pissed.
If I feel my life’s boring it’s hard to resist
The temptation to find some position to scoff.
Happiness is the reason for all that I do.

Re-Tune Your Thoughts

Dec1

When the gas gauge nears empty do you cry in shame
With your head on the steering wheel wondering why
Such a crisis befell you? You’d hoped it would last
But it didn’t so you feel you’ve done things half assed.
You then feel the despair of a life gone awry
And you have no one else but your damned self to blame.

Slap a happy face sticker across that gas gauge.
It’s depressing to look at. Indeed it’s obscene.
This ridiculous scenario is to say
That we have built in gauges that lead us the way
That is of least resistance. Somewhere in between
The absurd and reality our thoughts engage.

It’s an indicator that tells you what you need.
Nothing more or less is it than a messenger.
It is time for a fill up if you don’t feel well.
Do not hang around others and put them through hell.
Offer thoughts more conducive to what you prefer.
Take notice of how you feel, and you will succeed.

When you’re pissed off at someone, that gauge is ignored
To your ultimate detriment. All of your thought
Is devoted to anger, like swimming upstream
When what you want is downstream. This recurring theme
Is the lifelong conundrum in which you are caught.
Having thoughts that aren’t loving you cannot afford.

We Are Not Separate

Sep18

“I am he as you are he as you are me and
We are all together…,” as the old wise song goes.
If I am I because you are you, and you are
You because I am I, then both of us are far
From who either is. This logic most clearly shows
Separateness is folly. Why isn’t it banned?

We know who we are in terms of other people.
Interdependent systems, we do not exist
Without all others present. We each interact
With what is our environment, and our impact
Is an issue not inconveniently dismissed
By the few who are given too much damned control.

What I call the external world is just as much
My own body. My skin is but a bridge through which
The external flows back and forth just as the tide.
In the peace of connectedness I must reside.
Knowledge made useful is intended to enrich
Every part of me that has grown cold to the touch.

We’ve not been taught to feel this. Our culture demands
That we feel only some parts and ignore others.
It is driving us crazy as one whole species.
On the brink of extinction, we live our disease.
Intervention by our daughters and our mothers
Is the hope that the most of us well understands.
