Follow Your Dreams

Ascension

There are those of us who like to venture into
The unknown – the strange, the unexplored. The beauty
Of the journey is the awesome sense of wonder
As good ideas rip through the mind like thunder.
Magical is the risk of things coming to be.
Hold on tightly to those dreams no one sees but you.

Listen closely to what your inner voice tells you
In a whisper yet clear as a bell in the mind.
It tells you when to leave, where to go, when to stay,
And what’s right. Take delight in what it has to say.
Give yourself some uplifting and always be kind
To yourself and others in everything you do.

Some birds aren’t meant to be caged. Their feathers are just
Too magnificent and when they do fly away
The part of you that knows it was sinful to lock
Them up does rejoice. It shouldn’t come as a shock
That you are such a bird at the end of the day.
In your power to take to the air you must trust.

It’s not Shakespeare. Your inner voice gives it to you
Most directly but you have to pay attention
In your moments of silence when you’re more aware
Of its presence. It’s up to you to take good care
Of your point of attraction. You’re an extension
Of divine energy. Do believe this is true.

Patience

Colorful Time

One of the most virtuous qualities of pure
Being is patience. It is the capacity
To accept or to tolerate trouble, delay,
Or suffering without getting stuck in dismay.
Fortitude, composure, and equanimity
Are the attributes of patience that will endure.

Patient people are much better able to cope
With negative situations and folks without
Complaining, getting angry, or acting rashly.
One’s capacity for patience naturally
Will increase as one begins to know without doubt
It’s true nature and essence with regard to hope.

Understanding one’s true self is understanding
Others’ also. Instead of becoming upset
With yourself, others, or a screwed-up circumstance,
One can realize that there’s a much better chance
Of recovery if one is willing to let
Go of what keeps one’s consciousness from expanding.

We need to eliminate anger from our minds.
The lower levels of consciousness we transcend
As we open our hearts to higher truth. Patience
Becomes a dynamic and fun experience.
Energized by intention one can comprehend
Spiritual alignment and joy of all kinds.

Just A Few Laughs Away

The Levity Solution

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.
