Right Back Into Alignment

It takes much self-control to let go of control.
It feels almost counter to what I’m asking for.
I think I’m meant to do things that I’m not doing
And that’s why I have difficulty pursuing
What I want. I’ve no time for the things I adore.
How I feel in the moment is much less than whole.

In my determination to have a fine day
I’m obsessed with figuring out what I can do
To be the best at what I do, somehow I know
That I’m struggling upstream. If I go with the flow
Then I’ll have a much more positive point of view.
Things may just work out for me if I think this way.

I don’t know exactly where to go or what to
Do but I can feel the call and know that as I
Relax more then I’m better able to translate
The call into more details. I want to create
A life full of excitement. It’s the reason why
I was born and each moment I have here is new.

Now I’m meant to do things that I’m going to let
Myself do. There’s a difference in how that feels
Which is lighter. I don’t have to figure it all
Out right this red hot minute. It is but a small
Thing to change my direction. My true heart reveals
What I need to know to me and there’s no regret.

You’re A Powerful Attractor

Oct9

Your daughter wants a best friend to be with at school.
What advice do you give her? You don’t need a best
Friend but it’s fun to have one. A while you’re waiting
To respond to her although you’re advocating
For her happiness. What a wise one might suggest
Is that it has much to do with the golden rule.

You don’t want to replace your inner being though
With a friend. Find your own happy independence
Then you’ll attract a friend who has their own happy
Independence and then happy times there will be
For the both of you. Fulfillment can be immense
Through the infinite power that is within you.

But if you’re needy because you don’t have a friend
You’ll attract someone else who’s needy because they
Are also friendless. You’ll live lives of misery.
There will be much possessiveness and jealousy.
Such a relationship can’t continue this way.
It may last for a while but it is doomed to end.

Notice the positive aspects in everyone.
Pay attention to the friend that you want to be
To someone rather than to the friend you want to
Come to you then they will come from out of the blue.
You attract what you want to and successfully
When alignment with your inner being is done.

Wisdom

Jul15

Not from books do we get it. Not all who are old
Have attained this grand virtue. This is not to say
That books cannot contain it and that older folk
Are all somehow demented. One can yet evoke
Genuine wisdom from anyone anyway,
And the way it’s distributed is manifold.

Waiting for circumstances to change so you can
Feel good is like looking into a mirror and
Waiting for your reflection to smile at you first.
It’s of no use and it is harmful at its worst.
If you want change then it is by your own command.
Search the depths of your soul to come up with a plan.

Remember, even false beliefs will seem to be
Justified in terms of physical data, since
Your experience of the world that is outside
Is its realization. It can’t be denied.
It takes only its repetition to convince
Everyone of its truthfulness uncannily.

With the raw material of you ideas
Work with exclusively though the data may seem
To be true obviously. Your experience
If it is changed will give you a new common sense.
Ideas will alter to express a new theme.
You will learn to dispense with the thinking that was.

So Now…

Jun12

Do I care about people? Do I have a heart?
Life has thrown me into a conundrum of doubt.
I write words to express, but they’ve all come and gone.
I have only my memories to reflect on.
All my life I’d been hoping to figure things out.
Now I know that I’ve been insane right from the start.

The phone vibrates. I tremble. I can’t get used to
Random contact by randomness of entities
That see me as a prospect for making a sale.
I respond but by now I’m as slow as a snail.
I arrive quite unsatisfied and on my knees
To repent for the things I continue to do.

There’s a leak in the toilet. It’s a reminder
Of my slow steady wasting of infinite grace.
Things could have been a lot different if I had
Been with my own a righteous family comrade.
All the sins I have committed now I must face.
I’m surprised that a random soul would call me ‘sir.’

Once the life force within me was ever so bright.
Unbelievably sturdy and fast on my feet,
I had time to waste… and I did, to my regret.
Is it true that I have not a single asset
Spiritual in nature or even concrete?
Can I find anything in this world I’ve done right?

Open Doors

Feb24

The balance of the universe vibrates between
What exists and the lack of it. If I’m able
To identify something I truly desire
Then the absence of this thing I want to acquire
Does exist. It’s important to remain stable
And to practice some positive mental hygiene.

From the point of my saying that I want something,
Through my thinking about it, one or the other
Side I give more attention to. What comes to be
Then depends upon which one feels better to me.
Only it or the lack of it can but occur.
This concept does not have to be mystifying.

Feeling lack about what I want only delays
Its arrival in my life. I’ll give attention
To my reasons for wanting it and my belief
That its coming is imminent. I’ll find relief
In my trusting the universe to get things done.
I can maintain my balance in myriad ways.

But the best way to open doors to everything
That I find most delightful is to acknowledge
Now the positive aspects of what I’m living.
The universe is intent on its giving
Whatever is asked of it. On this leading edge
Of creation, I find my life most fulfilling.

Morning Affirmation

Jan8

My! Last night was a blessing. I slept really well.
This moment I embrace with every part of me.
This brand new day is full of possibilities.
It’s a miracle waiting to happen with ease.
I anticipate what waits for me anxiously.
It will be magnificent from what I can tell.

Nights and days filled with joy I have gotten used to.
My sublime expectation of things working out
To my good is a treasure technique of a tool,
And how I feel this moment is just the right fuel
To excite this day’s engine and cast away doubt.
I embrace all that this day has for me to do.

I embrace the experiences lining up.
I anticipate all the opportunities
And the ease of fulfillment of my hopes and dreams.
Blessings descend upon me in multiple streams.
Every benefit due me this day I shall seize.
Pour some more gratitude into my waiting cup.

I anticipate the best to happen today.
I am ready this morning and in this moment
To commit to a good start. What unfolds for me
Will surprise and delight me indubitably.
Every moment of this day is marked for content.
I look forward to having this new day to play.

Go All The Way

Aug28

If you’re going to try, then do Go All The Way.
Otherwise, do not start the path laid before you.
It could mean losing girlfriends, wives, and relatives,
Or your means of support which most rarely forgives.
You may lose your clear mind and be left without clue,
And the more that is lost, the more hell there’s to pay.

Can you Go All The Way knowing all is unknown?
With each step of the journey is uncertainty,
It could mean your not eating for three or four days,
Freezing on city park benches, prone in such ways
That attract sharp derision and harsh mockery.
It may challenge your spirit and hurt to the bone.

It could mean doing jail time and isolation.
Aloneness is the gift. All others are a test
Of how much you can take. Do you want to do it?
You know well what the answer is. You cannot quit!
You will do what you must and be fettered and blessed
And despite the rejection, there’s work to be done.

Better than anything else you could imagine
It will be if indeed you are going to try.
Don’t be half assed about it. Do Go All The Way.
There’s no other feeling like a part in the play
Where you dance with the gods and flame up the night sky.
You will ride perfect laughter. New life will begin.
