Simple Pleasure

Your vortex of creation is full of all kinds
Of things that you’ve been asking for. When you feel good
They come in perfect timing. Sometimes there will be
An idea or impulse that naturally
Takes you places that will make you feel as you should.
You have so much going for you. Watch for the signs.

Whether it’s an idea, an impulse to act,
Or someone saying something that satisfies you
At some level, it all comes when you’re properly
Aligned with your true self who just happens to be
The one who helps your slightest wishes to come true.
Only the best things in life you want to attract.

You don’t need to be the single handed mighty
Creator of your reality because you
Have so much support in your every endeavor.
If you’ll just chill and let it come then you’ll never
Be without satisfaction in all that you do.
Things will happen to you that will seem uncanny.

Your cooperative components are around
Everywhere. You need only expect there to be
Lots of fun and excitement wherever you go.
There’s no sense of determination when you know
In any circumstance how to live happily.
Simple Pleasure in your life is easily found.

Soothing Thoughts

Mar14

Can I heal myself through my determination
To do so? Can I figure out what to do then
Set a goal and achieve it? These thoughts are upstream
And I know they won’t help me to fulfill my dream
Of a life of simplicity. I don’t know when
I’ve ever been in such a tough situation.

I need thoughts that are downstream. I need to let go
Of a ton of resistance. It stands in the way
Of my becoming the person I’m meant to be.
I must know that there’s nothing the matter with me.
To get into alignment what price must I pay?
It’s that of being willing to go with the flow.

My life has caused me to create it. I know it’s
Waiting for me. I don’t have to worry about
It becoming reality. I don’t have to
Figure it all out right now. All I need to do
Is to keep myself free of any thoughts of doubt
Which means I cannot focus too much on my wits.

It’s natural for things to turn out well for me.
There’s no rush. I’ve got plenty of time to do this.
When I feel like doing it, it always feels good.
When I don’t, then it sucks. It’s now well understood.
All the things that are going well I can’t dismiss.
To think any thought I want I’m perfectly free.

Get Some Momentum Going

Feb22

When you feel good you want the good feeling to last
For a good while. You can imagine a nice day
With your friends while engaging in fun and laughter.
You just want to live happily ever after.
“I Love Life!” You can take on each moment this way
Then momentum toward happiness happens fast.

“I like this; not that so much. I could do without
This but I like that…” This cannot build momentum
Because it’s inconsistent. Your focus must be
Only on things that you know will make you happy.
You have only your resistance to overcome
But you can do that easily without a doubt.

Prime your pump of wellbeing. Get way out ahead
Of it all by looking for positive aspects
And by segment intending and meditation.
Happiness in your life is your own creation.
Being happy should never be seen as complex.
About happiness there’s a whole lot to be said.

You’re a powerful being. Determination
On your part to be focused on thoughts that feel good
Is a must if you want to increase momentum.
Find something that is easy and then beat that drum.
Things will work out spectacularly as they should.
Life can be for you a constant celebration.

Receive

Jan30

“There’s a price to pay for everything,” people say.
This mindset where people in their comparison
And tendency to see themselves as unworthy
Or subservient in some way happens to be
What’s keeping their desires from manifestation.
Energy cannot move if one thinks in this way.

Yet there is a price to pay – one of alignment
And the price of alignment is the absence of
Resistance. It’s the price of wellbeing and ease
And of doing pretty much what you damned well please
Without any ill feeling. It’s all about love
And of achieving spiritual refinement.

Surrounded by this nucleus of wellbeing
You may stand with your armor and not let it in
Because of ideas that you’ve picked up along
Your way through life most of which are completely wrong.
Sort them out and acknowledge them then you’ll begin
Seeing the way your inner being is seeing.

The meek shall inherit the earth. They’re the ones who
Are lighthearted, allowing, and resistance free.
Anger, determination, and struggle are not
The best ways to receive so it matters a lot
That you keep yourself meek and be willing to be
Receptive to the wellbeing coming to you.

I Give Up!

Jan11

I try hard not to struggle. It’s probably why
I remain in perpetual anxiety.
If I care less about things that get on my nerves
Then perhaps I may get what my spirit deserves
Which is true peace of mind and the freedom to be
Satisfied with my living as each day goes by.

What I’ve been doing has been halfway even though
I’ve been greatly wanting to do it all the way.
I’ve given it more effort than anybody
That I know yet success doesn’t chase after me.
I Give Up what is causing me all this dismay.
It’s the wisest and most sensible way to go.

I Give Up my confounding confusion and my
Control of what can’t be controlled. I find relief
In releasing the need to make up excuses.
When I surrender I find that it produces
A feeling in me which enhances my belief
In a lawful universe where all must comply.

I will tell the story of my empowerment
And my worthiness. I tout the benefits of
My knowledge of the Law of Attraction and I
Can depend on my guidance when things go awry.
I Give Up the resistance that I have to love.
There’s nothing more important than feeling content.

Your Attention To ‘What Is’

Dec11

‘What Is’ is what is keeping you from what could be.
When you focus attention on the status quo
Nothing changes. Your manifestations never
Catch up with you. Moving forward takes forever.
The imbalance of energy makes for a slow
Pace of life. From ‘what is’ you must get yourself free.

When you hold a desire and you focus upon
It and you stop focusing upon its absence
Then the space will fill in with what you’re looking for.
As you shift your attention from ‘what is’ the more
Of what you want must happen. Forget present tense!
Having done this then all your resistance is gone.

As long as your awareness is on ‘what is’ now
And therefore ‘what is’ missing from now you create
A vibration that holds you right in the same place.
You prevent your reception of infinite grace.
Keep yourself always in a most positive state.
The receptive mode is one in which you allow.

‘What Is’ begs many questions that you can’t answer
Like: Why doesn’t it come faster? What can I do?
When will it become manifest? Focus only
On those things in life that you want to come to be.
Do whatever you know that will satisfy you
Then your future will turn out just as you prefer.

On The Threshold Of Manifestation

Nov4

“My life is really very good. I know that I
Have a huge vibrational escrow down the road.
I’m enjoying my journey and if I never
Reach the end then it means life goes on forever.
I’m thankful for the good things that to me have flowed
Yet I’m not fulfilled. There must be a reason why.”

There’s some contradiction in your thinking process.
What you want isn’t out there teasing you into
A much better life. What you want is out there and
It is real. It’s most helpful if you understand
Well how thought precedes form. The creating you do
Should always be from a place of pure happiness.

Don’t give up reaching for the manifestation.
You’re not being encouraged to just think happy
Thoughts so that you’ll be content in the absence of
What you want. Do pursue all the things that you love
But do it knowing that it shall all come to be.
There must be no doubt lurking in your vibration.

You must want unabashedly. Feel justified
In your wanting and having it and be assured
In its coming. This kind of determination
Will crystalize your magnificent creation.
So in fact your fulfillment is safe and secured
By the universe which is always on your side.

Intention

May14

An intention is an idea that you plan
Or want to carry out. It is one of the most
Powerful forces there is. If you mean to do
Something, whether or not you accomplish it, you
Have mustered an intention. You had been engrossed
In its outcome even before the plan began.

To survive and to feel better are the basic
Intentions of the ordinary ego mind.
Spiritual intentions have the power to
Energize and give you a more positive view
Of reality. You can become more refined
In you focus. It isn’t that much of a trick.

They are set internally or externally
And are closely related to one’s objective,
Purpose, aim, goal, design, or dream. As one creates
With intention, the universe coordinates
Everything to one’s favor. One therefore can live
A life free of the ego’s negativity.

Intentions set up priorities and values
And direct commitment and determination.
Some powerful intentions are: “I intend to
Accept responsibility for what I do.
I intend to make peace with my situation.
I intend to be mindful in all that I choose.”

The Life That You Want

Apr10

If I think about it long enough and I keep
Myself focused there with a picture in my mind
Of my having it, then it has to manifest.
I create from a higher state and do my best
To stay there. I find the universe to be kind.
Things can happen for me even while I’m asleep.

The coincidences of my life I manage.
I can place my attention on what I would like
To create in my life, and with this attitude,
Only pure positive energy I exude.
Getting there is as easy as riding a bike
On the down slope. I could go on a joy rampage.

Higher levels of consciousness can be achieved
Just by sitting and dreaming. I could meditate,
Chant, or fast, or go on a spiritual quest
For enlightenment, but I need only divest
Enough focus upon what I want to create
And be thankful for what I’ve already received.

The reptilian mind meets the neocortex
Where awareness of others can yield empathy
For all those who are suffering. I feel the pain,
But I can’t let the world’s issues drive me insane.
I’m thankful I’ve been able to get myself free
Of the status quo and all its harmful effects.

About Life

Apr9

Most people are living a kind of hypnosis
Wherein they pledge allegiance to the opinion
Of a vacant society instead of to
What they feel in their hearts they would much rather do.
It can feel like the outer world has dominion
Over their souls. It is a social sclerosis.

The plan and purpose of life is obedience
To one’s inner nature. We are here to express
Life as we instinctively feel it ought to be.
It’s not healthy to be trapped in low energy.
We’re supposed to be in a state of happiness
Fairly often. We are creatures of refulgence.

Everything vibrates and emits a vibration.
Ours consist of our thoughts, beliefs, feelings, and acts.
They form an energy pattern which is our vibe.
It remains difficult for someone to describe,
But you know when you feel it. It either attracts
Or repels you. It is a point of causation.

All these vibes come together and form what we know
As the Collective Consciousness. It sponsors war,
Mass shootings, pandemics, earth disasters and such.
It can yield good things also, yet we pay to much
Attention to past horrors, and we expect more
Of the same for the future. How then can we grow?

The Benefits Of Joy

Jan27

There is something in balance with your energies.
When you hold a desire and you focus upon
It only and stop focusing on its absence,
In no time your satisfaction will be immense.
Blessings can happen when your resistance is gone.
Life gets better as you become easy to please.

If your reality now is not filling in
The way you want it to, your vibration is not
Where it should be, but you can change that instantly.
Your awareness of what’s missing can easily
Make you feel a bit needy. It matters a lot
That you muster some comfort within your own skin.

Creating is all about identifying
What is wanted, letting identification
Be enough, and then finding ways to get happy.
It is the natural state in which you should be.
You don’t need to worry about getting things done.
There is no limit to what happiness can bring

It’s already created – this thing you call now –
A result of the energies that you have flowed
From the past, so look forward. All that lies ahead
Is created by right now. Be interested
In the things that bring you joy. Take the easy road
Through your life. You don’t need to worry about how.

You Don’t Create Alone

Jan3

Your Vortex of Creation is filled with all kinds
Of things that you’ve created ever since day one
Of existence. It’s accessed vibrationally.
When you’re feeling good, things that you’ve put there will be
Your reality. So simply by having fun,
You can manifest. This fact boggles people’s minds.

It comes in perfect timing. Sometimes it will be
An idea or impulse to act in a way
That would not have occurred to you were you not in
The right place at the right time, and as you begin
To see your life as one huge, magnificent play,
All kinds of opportunities then you will see.

Start hanging around people who are uplifting.
We are each a cooperative component
Of another – or others. You are not alone.
We provide one another what needs to be known
To create. We are gathered by conscious intent.
To the table, the best of our true selves we bring.

You don’t need to be the single-handed, mighty
Creator of your own life. Much help is at hand.
In your determination to act correctly
For approval from others, let down you will be.
Your creative spirit is made free to expand
In a world so abundant in variety.

Crank Up The Momentum

Dec22

I imagined a day filled with fun and laughter,
And it was so. I set myself up for feeling
Absolutely fantastic, and it came to be.
I experienced moments of sheer ecstasy.
I look forward only to what is appealing.
In this way, I’m an efficient feeling crafter.

There had been no subterfuge to the momentum
Created by my wanting my day to go well.
“I like this, and I like this also.” This is how
I was able to bring power into my now.
Being happy is like casting a magic spell
On myself. Much resistance I have overcome.

In the past, I had lived life quite differently.
“I like this, but not that so much,” I would express
To the listening universe. I would receive
So much of ‘not that so much’ that I would believe
Not that much is worth liking. I would acquiesce
To the false notion that something is wrong with me.

It’s like priming a pump. I create a vacuum
To draw forth the good feelings and keep them coming.
Once the water gets moving, it will continue.
There is little more efforting I need to do.
I believe that I do have adequate plumbing
For the well. It’s a factor that I must assume.

Take Your Mind Off What Is

Dec19

I would like to let go of my reality,
But I can’t. It’s stuck to me like whiteness to rice.
I keep thinking that I’m moving forward, yet I
Cannot manifest no matter how hard I try.
What I need is someone to give me good advice
On how I can keep up with my own energy.

Something is out of balance. I know deep within
That when I focus on something and I have no
Resistance to prevent it from becoming real,
It will happen. It depends on the way I feel
About it. I can choose to just go with the flow.
This present moment is the best time to begin.

My awareness of my now is preventing my
Now from changing. It’s my responsibility
To maintain my vibration, so my attention
Is on good things. This does lead to the prevention
Of depression. What is now can elevate me
To the next level. All of my now does apply.

Now has already been created. It’s old news.
It’s also the bouncing off place for what is new.
This is deliberate creation at its best.
I can improve on how my wishes are expressed.
My emotions will tell me what I need to do.
I am kept in alignment by which ones I choose.

Receive What You Deserve

Nov18

You are more than deserving of all that is good.
You may nurture the mindset of comparison,
And in determination, you’re made unworthy,
Which is far from spiritual reality.
There’s a price to be paid for every solution
To a problem. This may be how life’s understood.

The price is your alignment through nonresistance.
You pay ease and not struggle. Get this squared away
In your mind. You’re surrounded by a nucleus
Of wellbeing and prosperity, so don’t fuss
About anything because it causes delay.
Alignment can do wonders if given the chance.

Be released from the armor you fearfully don
To protect you from goodness. Can you let it in?
You picked up your armor from what others told you
From the time you were little, and much has to do
With your being unworthy. When do you begin
To feel that your sense of your alignment is gone?

“The meek shall inherit the earth” someone once said.
Meekness means nonresistance. It means allowing
The surrounding soup of providence to become
The reality. Peace is where your strength comes from.
You evolve into a deeper understanding
Of your path in life as you are looking ahead.

Surrender To Your Worthiness

Aug6

We may often fall victim to comparison.
In our determination to feel unworthy
Or subservient in some way, we’ve concluded
That for everything there’s a price to pay. With dread
We consider becoming who we want to be
So it is hard to get almost anything done.

The only price that you pay is your alignment.
Your absence of resistance is all that you need
To feel that you’re surrounded by a nucleus
Of wellbeing. In fact, it engulfs all of us.
Know that in your surrender to it you are freed
To pursue anything that’s to your heart’s content.

Often we pay with struggle by thinking that we
Haven’t jumped through enough hoops or kissed the right ring
To deserve something different, and our armor
Prevents blessings from penetrating to the core
Of our beingness. Success does not effort bring,
And hard work is not needed for prosperity.

The meek will inherit this earth someone once said
A long time ago. He meant the non-resisted
Lighthearted, free feeling folk who are allowing,
Not angry or determined but understanding
And accepting of the goodness that lies ahead.
Surrender To Your Worthiness. Don’t be misled.

Redefining The Flow

Mar16

Life is meant to be simple – not hard and complex.
My vortex is full of things I’ve been asking for.
They are manifesting into reality
According to how much I can let my life be.
They come in perfect timing. I live to explore
The abundance of my world with all due respects.

Sometimes it’s an idea – sometimes an impulse
Or the words of some stranger I’ll happen to hear
That will trigger a positive change in my style.
It’s uncanny how often the truly worthwhile
Happenstances upon me when I have no fear.
There is no turning back. The ill past I expulse.

Everywhere all around me there’s a constant flow
Of cooperative components filling in
The grid of my reality. Being aware
Of it all as it happens is taking good care
Of the spiritual person who dwells within.
In this way I can best avoid my feeling low.

I do not have to tackle single handedly
The bull’s horns or the universe. All I need do
Is relax and let everything fall into place.
I cannot be determined with redness of face,
The illusion of onlookers to cater to
Is not one beneficial to them or to me.

Get The Momentum Going

Feb15

It feels good to have fun. This is easy to say.
The sheer simplicity of this declaration
Is that it’s not disputed by those who are sane.
Everyone understands. There’s no tax on the brain.
The pursuit of a good thing is always begun
With a happy mindset at the start of the day.

It feels good to pre-pave an exciting time out
With some friends. I imagine a fairly nice day
With lots of fun and laughter, and it shall be so.
The best way I know to get momentum to flow
Is to find something easy and then try to stay
Positive in my thinking. Can there be some doubt?

As the day unfolds, what I like I’ll acknowledge…
And the next, and the next thing that’s going my way.
In no time the momentum has gotten to be
To the point where I experience ecstasy.
If it’s practiced enough it becomes like child’s play.
In this reality I’m on the leading edge.

I cannot be ambiguous nor objective.
I can’t say, “I like this, but I don’t care for that.”
It will kill the momentum. Like priming a pump
I draw grace from my inner well. It’s no big jump
To the state of enjoyment from where I am at.
This for me is a most logical way to live.

Finding A Negative Belief

Feb6

Belief systems control us. We know that they do.
If I have chosen something that’s dragging me down
And don’t know that I’ve done so, I’m in a bad way.
My actions may confound me, and my thinking may
Be unclear about most things. I don’t want to drown
In the river of my life while absent a clue.

It’s a viable concept that I can accept
At face value. It leads to the question of why
I believe in something that does me little good.
The issue isn’t complex if well understood.
To get to the root of it I’m willing to try
To discover the mystery that is well kept.

I may seek the approval of others like me
Who share the same circumstances and the same ills
Of the spirit and psyche. It’s hard to move on
When the life force within one has picked up and gone
Totally catastrophic with negative thrills.
This cannot be the way that I meant it to be.

Once I know what is keeping me from being who
I am truly, pure nonsense it all seems to make.
Then I can let go of it. To bring to the light
What is eating away at me is only right.
The pathway to discovery that I must take
Is the only one I have. I can make it new.

It’s Your Time

Jan15

Begin to understand the love God has for you.
Have you not taken notice of positive things
That occur in your life and elsewhere in the world?
Anything you can do with your spirit unfurled.
You can choose not to struggle. The woe that it brings
Is a thing unbecoming for all that you do.

You proclaim your determination to release
Your resistance to God’s blessings once and for all.
And in so doing you give up your tight control
Of what is uncontrollable. You become whole
In the process of owning that which does enthrall.
Giving up struggle leads to your ultimate peace.

From outside of this knowledge you’ve not managed well.
There are so many pieces and not enough mind
To keep good track of all of them. Don’t interact
With those parts of the puzzle. Their lethal impact
Is the death of the spirit. Do not be confined
By your ignorance. It is the worst kind of hell.

It’s your time to begin feeling your way into
The vortex of emotion where all is sublime.
There it feels like clear answers to all your questions.
Definiteness of purpose is how your life runs.
Every instinct within you knows this is your time.
Don’t let what you have worked for become overdue.

Feel Good Now!

Nov24

I cannot disallow the wellbeing to come
While allowing it. This law is spiritual.
I can make up my mind which one that it will be.
My set point of attraction is vital to me.
I shall give it more attention than usual.
My good feeling is where all good tidings come from.

What is is but a snapshot of patterns of old
And it matters not one bit to how I feel now.
But how I feel about what is matters a lot.
My emotional state has more power than thought.
It is good that I know how to feel and allow.
Life is filled with wonderful things I may behold.

It must be all that matters, for life is in vain
If I don’t make it paramount that I feel good.
I can do something about the way that I feel
In any given moment. This has great appeal
To my true self excited. It is understood
By my heart and my mind. There is wisdom to gain.

Since there’s so much to choose from about what is now
And I have the freedom enjoyed by everyone
I can pick something critical and give it hell
Or something to appreciate wherein I dwell
In the state of good fortune. I’m having much fun
Now that I’ve made the right decision to allow.

The Work You’ve Done

Nov23

You’re beginning to understand and finally
How much love God has for you and all creation.
Victory you can taste in the things you’ve asked for.
You know that as a being, you’ll always want more.
All the work that you’ve done is worth celebration.
Give yourself a big high five, and revel in glee.

You have given up many things holding you back
Like controlling things you know you cannot control
And attention to anything that brings you down.
The excuses you once used for wearing a frown
You have given up for the things that make you whole.
Fear you no longer have nor the feeling of lack.

You had done things the hard way, and half way at best
Even though you’d been wanting to go all the way.
Putting forth so much effort without a reward,
You became disillusioned and easily bored
With the heart of your life’s dream. Indeed you fell prey
To the dark cloud of feeling hopelessly distressed.

Now you do see the light just a little so far.
It is time for you to tell the world your story
Of focus of empowerment and worthiness.
As you feel your way into your growing success
Know that God’s faith in you is what can set you free
To express the magnificence of who you are.

Invictus

Apr4

The dark night of the soul of all humanity
Blankets me in a blackness, the darkest I’ve known
Since the virus of racism caught humankind
In the hell made a battlefield of the sick mind.
Nonetheless I am thankful that I’m not alone.
By divinity power is given to me.

I remember past challenges. I was constrained
Yet I showed no discomfort nor did I complain.
Beaten brutally by unyielding circumstance,
I am given much more than a black snowball’s chance
To rise up like the phoenix with heaven to gain.
Looking on toward the future, my pride is maintained.

Though the challenge seem futile as death changes ways
It can have its way with us, sincere is my hope
That the same God who strengthens me will help me do
Everything in our powers to rightly subdue
The dark shadow that threatens all. On the tightrope
In a serious circus, I want for no praise.

Matters not does it how dark night gets before dawn.
Fully am I prepared, for robust is my will
Through incurred purgatories. I am the master
Of my fate and the captain (as I’d most prefer
It be always) of my soul and its expert skill.
United we combat illness until it’s gone.
