The Simple Secret To Happiness

I’m happy to be happy. It’s my decision,
And it’s made in an instant. I don’t have to wait
For conditions to be how I want them to be.
Everything that I need for joy is within me.
I decide in this moment that I will feel great.
My outlook on life doesn’t need a revision.

What are the blocks to happiness? It’s believing
That they are my reality. Then I create
What is needed to have them. Now I’m quite aware
That there are no beleaguering big blocks out there.
It’s not hard to remain in a positive state
When I know that my thinking can be deceiving.

I felt so undeserving because of my past
Misdirected behavior. How’d I let that go?
I decided that it’s better for me to live
Than to self-flagellate. It was hard to forgive
Myself for my wrongdoings. I did manage though.
I had found the relief I needed at long last.

I’m not searching for happiness. I bring it to
Whatever I am doing. I am happiness.
In the absence of pleasure I can find it there
Because it’s totally an internal affair.
In this moment, I chose to have complete access
To that high flying feeling that is ever new.

Negative People

Nov4

Negative People bug me. Their harsh energy
Is upsetting and dangerous. What can I do?
Should I say nothing to them? Should I stay away
From them altogether? Do I accept that they
Have a right to their feelings? How do I get through
Having to be around them perpetually?

I should be stable enough that I don’t need the
Condition to be perfect in order to be
In alignment. There is such a freedom in that.
There’s no time for engaging in negative chat.
But, within the contrast, am I able to see
That the people that bug me are the same as me?

We’re all in this together. I have had my days
Of disaster because of my negative mood.
So, I can well relate to where they’re coming from.
Can I set an example and somehow become
The answer to their problems with my attitude?
Perhaps so. I can be helpful in many ways.

Negative emotion cannot be a bad thing.
It’s the starting point of the creative process.
I feel appreciation for its existence.
Through my disposition I can be of immense
Benefit to the circumstance. I acquiesce
And acknowledge what positive feelings can bring.

Lose Yourself

Jun20

Lose Yourself In This Love… You will find everything.
In This Love, when you lose yourself, all will be well.
Lose Yourself in the moment. Do Not fear the loss.
You will rise from the earth and meet up with The Boss
While embracing the heavens. In bliss you will dwell
With others who are like you, and may angels sing!

Lose Yourself and escape from this frail earthly form.
This body is a chain, and I, its prisoner.
I must smash through the prison wall and walk outside
With the kings and the princes. No dream is denied.
Never mind what others back on earth would prefer.
Grieving over the loss of folks is quite the norm.

Find escape from the black cloud that does surround you
Then you’ll see your own light as bright as the full moon.
Enter now into that silence. The surest way
Is to Lose Yourself each moment of every day.
What is your life about anyway but a strewn
All about mess of memories that you accrue?

My own life is a struggle. For myself I speak –
Not for anyone else here. It isn’t my place.
I have been someone naughty and too often mean.
My own silence I run from. I cannot be seen
In the light of most others. Am I a disgrace?
One’s own self loss is personal and quite unique.
