Let Go And Trust

Let’s put things into context. I’m going to be
In the workforce. I’m graduating from college
In a short while. I’m really excited about
Doing interviews. I’ve many talents to tout
Way beyond all my training and expert knowledge,
But things don’t seem to be working out easily.

For the most part, though, I enjoy where I’m at now.
Some days are better than others generally,
But the difficulty comes when I focus on
What sometimes feels like struggle. My dream has not gone
By the wayside at those times. The best part of me
Is the one that has taught all of me to allow.

If I see what’s gone wrong, I stir up the contrast
And invite idle worry about rejection,
But it also shoots off a rocket of desire
To the universe which accepts what I require
In a system that operates with perfection.
I’ll see only what I want and remain steadfast.

All I need is to get into that trusting place
And accept that I’m worthy of what I ask for.
There’s no limit to how much good can come to me.
I can have things just the way I want them to be.
I know that I’ll forever be asking for more
Of the universe’s fund of infinite grace.

If You’re Ready, It’s Already Happened

Mar25

Things that you’ve been wanting will be realities
When a major shift in your vibration takes place.
Your Vortex of Creation is something quite real.
It’s made up of happy emotions that you feel
Throughout life. It’s your true Source of infinite grace.
It’s a state you can enter with relative ease.

Where you stand is what you think and how you’re feeling
In the moment. It transmits an energy field
That is either aligned with the Source that is you
Or is not. In that case then the best thing to do
Is to chill until your inner Source has revealed
Itself to you. A time out can be most healing.

The contents of your Vortex include everything
That you have ever dreamed of. How do you prepare
For receiving what’s in there if you’re not ready?
You must let go of your negative tendency
To get up on your soap box and falsely declare
That the thing you want greatly is not happening.

Just accept that what you want vibrationally
Is already available. You can see how
Your deliberate focus on feeling your best
Is a key factor in all that you manifest.
If it’s happened already, you’ve learned to allow
The contents of your Vortex to flow easily.

Who Are You?

Mar25

When you get who you are, and when you get how who
The real you really feels, you’re beginning to be
A vibrational match to who you truly are.
Only those who are ignorant find it bizarre
That each person creates their own reality,
So, be glad that this knowledge is made clear for you.

Your power of influence is so huge that those
Who are watching are dazzled by your confidence.
Things work out for you. Life is ever evolving.
You do not have to waste time and effort solving
Life’s unsolvable issues. What makes better sense
Is to stay in alignment amid the shadows.

You came forth to identify what you want and
To enjoy life in its constant and eternal
Stream of exquisite beauty. You’re one with the flow
Of abundance and wellbeing because you know
That all of existence remains spiritual.
Your purpose on this earth is to further expand.

Now and then, you may find yourself paddling upstream
Against all that you want, and this contradiction
In your energy manifests as misery
In some aspect of your life. You’d much rather be
In a place where you experience no friction.
When you know who you are, your life can be a dream.

Care About How You Feel

Mar24

All that you want, you will get. Let’s start right from there.
Both the Law of Attraction and Source Energy
Are at work all the time lining up things for you.
Don’t take anyone’s word for it. You know it’s true.
You were meant to be as happy as you can be.
You can take your happiness with you anywhere.

Let the manifestation not be your main goal
For a little while. Be satisfied with the dream
And the wonderful feeling that clarity brings.
You cannot right now purchase magnificent things,
But you can chill and go have some cake and ice cream.
The point is, you have the magic of self-control.

If you care more about the manifestation
Than the feeling it brings you, then you interfere
With the natural process by being aware
Of the absence of what you want. You want to care
More about the excitement. You want to adhere
To the absolute knowing that everything’s done.

You are an emotional evaluator.
Make the way that you feel matter most so that you
Tune yourself into alignment with your desire.
More important than all the things you may acquire
Are the best feelings ever that all lead up to
The moment of your getting what you have asked for.

Let Go Of What Is

Mar24

My life has a dark cloud over it. I perceive
That it follows me everywhere. My money woes
Overwhelm me. I can’t find an easy way out
Of my troubles. My future is fettered in doubt.
I’m in this dilemma constantly, and it shows
That I lack in my ability to receive.

It’s a horrible story. Even though it’s true,
To stay focused upon it does me little good.
I create more of what I give attention to.
The old story can only lead to something new
If the laws of the universe are understood
To be functioning in everything that I do.

The new and improved version of my own story
Can include anything that I feel should be there.
If I’m stuck in the same old beliefs by habit,
Then my authoring will be of no benefit
In changing my vibration from that of despair.
A cooperative component I must be.

‘What is’ has no real meaning, in fact, it is past.
Each moment is a new one. The more I let go
Of the negative feelings, the more I allow
Inspiration and insight to tell me just how
To proceed on my journey. I most want to know
How to make wonderful moments in my life last.

Just A Vibration Away

Mar23

When you’re feeling on top of the world is when you
Are in touch with the magic of high vibration.
You don’t fret for a moment about where you stand
In the absence of what you want. You take command
Of the moment. You are the crown of creation.
Although it’s just a feeling, it’s your point of view.

“It’s not just a vibration,” some folks may argue.
“It’s a manifestation, and it could take years.”
That’s if you’re diligent about poking around
Where you are until some information is found
That confirms even more than the worst of your fears.
You have so much power that you can make that true.

If you’re hung up on what is, you’ve gotten used to
Using your senses to translate the physical
Into something believable. Not as practiced
Are you at sensing vibration. Often dismissed
Are insights and impulses, and the usual
Cluttered input from reality stifles you.

Looking at ‘what is’ is what can keep you right where
You don’t want to be. Use your imagination
To create a more perfect life. Care how you feel.
Be excited about all that you can make real.
Your vibration increases when you’re having fun.
Tuning into yourself is a feeling affair.

Let The Universe Help

Mar23

You can’t be disappointed and get anything
That you want. Your disappointment is the one clue
That you’re not vibrationally in sync with what
You are wanting. It feels like the door has been shut
To the blessings of living. What you want to do
Is take care of your vibrational offering.

Do not beg God, the universe, or your best friend
To deliver to you what you want from a place
Of utter desperation. Stop talking about
Things in your life that don’t seem to be working out
To your liking. You’ll find people who may embrace
Your dilemma, but it never works in the end.

Your are asking, and it is delivered, but it’s
In vibrational form, so what you have to do
Is tune into the frequency of your desire
As it manifests for you. It doesn’t require
Tons of effort. Knowing the wise one within you
Comes with all kinds of spiritual benefits.

You’re the creator of you and all that you’ve placed
In vibrational escrow. Practice this knowing
Until you begin developing the habit
Of creating things that are to your benefit.
All you need is acceptance to get them flowing
Into your life, which now can be happily faced.

How To Ask

Mar22

If you feel good when you’re imagining the things
That you want most in life, then the spirit in you
Is in lock step agreement with your daydreaming
Because your inner being is always beaming
The highest of vibrations. That’s all it can do.
It’s in tune with your happiest mind wanderings.

Anytime that you feel negative emotion,
It means that your inner being is nowhere near
In alignment with the thought that has put you there.
Whatever the thought is, your spirit doesn’t share
The same view. It believes that everyone is dear.
It will consider not any other notion.

You can tell negative thoughts from those that are not.
How they feel should be noticed so you can decide
Whether or not to continue. Be more aware
Of your thoughts and emotions. The more that you care
About feeling your best, the less you are denied
Life’s blessings. Your vibration does matter a lot.

“Do you think that all things are possible for me?”
“What would you think if someone called me something bad?
Just keep asking questions of your inner being.
If you feel good when asking, then it’s agreeing
With whatever it is. You can only be glad
That you inner being is with you completely.

Make The Universe Listen

Mar22

Feel the power of telling your own new story.
It’s not easy to do it in the beginning.
It’s something to warm up to. Determination
To begin telling yours your way can be much fun.
You can tell one in which you are always winning.
It can be one where you are in all your glory.

As you do, be aware not of things as they are,
But instead, keep your focus on what can become.
Pay attention to the evidence happening
In the way that you feel. The universe will bring
You impulses and insights. You benefit from
Believing that what you want is not very far.

You’ll begin to let go of bygones, injustice,
Bad behavior, ill wishes, grudges, and mistakes
Of others and your darned self, and you will replace
Them with thoughts of the things that you truly embrace.
Purify your vibration. Avoid the headaches
Brought on by negative emotion such as this.

Use the power of your focus and the guidance
That comes forth from within you. Make The Universe
Listen to you by letting it know your intent.
In each moment toward your goal find fulfillment.
When you’re in alignment it will freely disburse
All that you’ve ever wanted, so give it the chance.

Expect Miracles

Mar21

Attraction is about life, and life is about
Attraction. Your inner being is the one who
Is attracting. It gathers Cooperative
Components for creating the life that you live.
So, let’s call it momentum. It has all to do
With the way circumstances in your life work out.

Momentum isn’t something you do. It’s something
That you learn to allow. The Law of Attraction
Is the momentum maker. You’re the focuser
Of all things that would make your life as you’d prefer.
You get momentum going when you have begun
To attend to the vibration you’re offering.

The delicious part of the creative process
Is that you have created for yourself a gap
Between you and what you want, but this is okay.
Your desires become more specified in this way.
Into infinite intelligence you can tap.
At any moment you have absolute access.

People expect only what they’ve seen already,
So they don’t Expect Miracles naturally.
Incremental releasing of your resistance
Day by day on your journey will greatly enhance
Your attraction vibration. Just be thrilled to be
Part of all of life’s magical reality.

Start A New Life

Mar21

What is the purpose of my life experience?
I’m a creator. I want mostly to express
That in this physical dimension while I’m here.
I discern and decide until I’m very clear
About what I want in life, which is happiness.
Life’s variety leaves me in utter suspense.

By the power of my will and ability
To focus upon that which I want, I attract
Anything I want to me. When I give my thought
Great emotion is when my vibration is brought
To a much higher frequency. This well-known fact
Is one that’s become most beneficial to me.

I sift through the data of my environment.
I’ll wake up every morning intending that I
Will look everywhere for things to feel good about.
I know that everything for me always works out
For the better. It’s good that I don’t have to try
To force things to go my way. Such time is ill spent.

I will go to the stores where the things I like are,
And I’ll watch those who look, walk, and feel the way I
Want to look, walk, and feel. To selectively sift
Through the data is indeed a most precious gift.
I embrace the spiritual laws that apply.
Anything I want in life is never too far.

Everything Will Change

Mar20

What could I do right now? What could I focus on
That will make me feel better? The question is key
If I ask it correctly. Things are going well.
By the way that I’m feeling inside I can tell
That my life is almost where I want it to be.
Most of my negative feelings have up and gone.

To move myself as quickly as possible to
A place of complete happiness happens to be
The reason I’m alive. What can I do to sync
Up more fully with my spirit? Is there a link
Where I can communicate with it directly?
I suspect that there’s nothing that I need to do.

I find myself in that state every single day,
But it only last moments. If I can stay there
Long enough, then what happens is that there’s a change
In the way the world treats me. I don’t find it strange
That, at will, I can do this. I simply must care
More about feeling better the natural way.

I do it by my recognizing when I feel
Pretty good. Then I’ll milk it for all that it’s worth.
“Why does this moment feel good?” I get to explore
Everything about this moment that I adore.
With some practice I become accustomed to mirth.
Everything Will Change to what I think is ideal.

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.

Everything That You Want Is Downstream

Mar19

Imagine taking your canoe down to the edge
Of a fast-moving river. You get in and then
You begin paddling deliberately upstream.
Why on earth would you do that, though? It doesn’t seem
Like a healthy idea. Again and again,
People do it as if they’ve made a solemn pledge.

People do it because everybody does it.
We don’t want be lazy, and we have been trained
To believe that hard work and struggle are to be
Seen as virtuous qualities. Society
Is upstream oriented as if it’s ingrained
In our psyche. It can be of no benefit.

There’s nothing that you want that’s upstream anyway.
The rewards for a difficult life can’t be worth
Feeling absolute pleasure in every moment.
People learn how to get by with their discontent.
When it gets to be too much, then they’re giving birth
To a change in direction and a brand new day.

Everything that you want is downstream. Everything
That makes up the stream is what you’ve been putting there
Through your wanting a better life. Inspiration
Comes to you, and it helps you in getting things done.
Just let go of the oars and become more aware
Of your worthiness and your passion for living.

Stop Looking For It

Mar19

Everyone loves a good story. Here’s a nice one
Where the Law of Attraction is the basic theme.
A lady with her baby went shopping for shoes.
There were many boutiques and shops from which to choose.
They later stopped at a place for cake and ice cream.
The whole day was one filled with excitement and fun.

She bought shoes for her little one. They were not cheap,
Yet she purchased them for sentimental value.
The shoes went onto the baby’s feet at the mall.
Seeing her in them was the best feeling of all.
When they got home, one shoe was missing. Not a clue
Did she have of its whereabouts. She did not weep.

But she did search the whole mall the very next day
Hoping she’d come across it. She searched high and low
Trying to retrace her steps, but it was useless.
She was disappointed, but she didn’t express
Feelings of desperation. No woe did she show.
Only her optimistic self was on display.

After days having gone by, she decided to
Go back to the mall with the one shoe on her child.
She found it to be odd, but she went with her gut.
People would think that she was some kind of a nut,
But her own intuition rendered her beguiled
By the provident universe’s point of view.

When she got to the mall with her child with one shoe,
She was in the right mood for receptivity.
Ignoring her self-consciousness, she went along
With the knowing inside her that nothing was wrong.
Then some teenaged girls approached her excitedly
With the lost shoe’s location. This story is true.

Create The Life That You Want

Mar18

Since my last birthday, people have been telling me
That it’s too late for me now – that my time has passed.
I don’t want to believe that. It doesn’t feel right.
No one can tell me that my future can’t be bright.
I’ve the freedom to do what I want at long last.
I can make my life the way I want it to be.

It may be ‘too late’ for those who say that it’s so
Because if you desire something but it’s ‘too late,’
It will never show up. There’s contradictory
Energy operating within the psyche.
It will affect your ability to create
What you want in your life. It’s a good thing to know.

I really want it, and it is well on its way.
That’s a healthier way of stating my intent
To be open to all that life has to offer
And to not let the judgements of others deter
Me from my path. I must exercise discernment
In my interactions with others through the day.

If I try to explain things, people may not be
On the same page as I am. I’ll just understand
And not try to re-litigate or to defend
My thinking to others who cannot comprehend.
It’s not my duty to lead others by the hand.
I’m free to look at life optimistically.

Purpose And Meaning

Mar18

Nobody needs to ask the enormous question,
“What is my purpose?” It can be found in service.
Put your attention on making life better for
Someone else. To touch someone’s life is truly more
Valuable than a fortune. You can find bliss
By making life just a bit better for someone.

That’s how God thinks. You can achieve God consciousness
Through a number of practices or none at all.
You don’t need anything more than your willingness
To serve others. Your divine nature you express
As you share love with others. No kind act is small.
Do not be concerned with material success.

The day shift is about what you can and can’t do,
And you’re judged by society in many ways.
When the shift is over, it’s time to reconnect
To the energy that handles every aspect
Of existence. In this way, you consciousness stays
In alignment with the expanded part of you.

Surrender to that something that’s bigger than you.
Whatever you may call it, it is in control.
In so doing, the meaning of life is made clear.
You want to make someone’s life better while you’re here.
We each are a part of a magnificent whole.
Let the God source within you tell you what to do.

A Winner

Mar17

“Can I meditate and manifest the winning
Lottery numbers?” You cannot get there from there.
It is possible to do this, but here’s the thing.
If your mood isn’t right, then your spending will bring
Nothing to you. Most people aren’t even aware
Of their feeling when buying. It’s interesting.

Are you feeling euphoria while you’re putting
Down your money? If so, then keep on doing it.
People buy out of boredom while hoping they will
Win the jackpot someday. If you go for the thrill
Of just playing, it is of immense benefit
To your vibration and your chances of winning.

There’s a mix of emotions you’re accustomed to.
Your mind tells you it’s possible, but not your gut.
You want money to flow to you in abundance
That you can enjoy comfortably. You enhance
Your vibration by keeping your focus on what,
In each moment, is going on inside of you.

So, don’t buy until you’ve lined up your energy,
Then you won’t need the ticket because you are now
A cooperative component to money
Coming to you in ways that you didn’t foresee.
You’re a big winner when you decide to allow
The abundance to happen spontaneously.

Remove Force From Your Life

Mar17

To resist all evil means to give up the fight.
Your problems are not solvable by using force.
When you become a fighter against anything
Onto the forces that created it you cling.
It takes conscious awareness to get to the source
Of your struggle. You know that things are not all right.

In this material world, things move at a pace
That causes much anxiety, illness, and pain.
It’s slow-moving energy ironically.
It’s the kind that always asks, “What’s in it for me?”
Scurrying to meet deadlines can drive you insane.
Life does not have to be a chaotic rat race.

Hold no one or no thing in judgment. You cannot
Bring spiritual harmony to an issue
As long as you accept the idea that one
Side is right. You will never reach a solution.
Judging others means only that something in you
Needs expressing, and it doesn’t mean a whole lot.

When you slow yourself down, you will actually
Always speed up your spiritual vibration.
Peaceful, tranquil thoughts clear the chatter in the mind.
While you’re stopped at a traffic light, be more inclined
To connect with your inner peace. Meditation
Is the wonderful practice of letting things be.

Gratitude

Mar16

From a compressed perspective, the world that we know
Could use lots of acceptance and understanding.
Glaringly apparent are the imbalances
Among health, wealth, and freedom. What are the chances
Of survival when there’s so much hate happening?
Spiritually, we have a long way to go.

That’s just one way of seeing things. There may be more,
But statistics interpret our reality.
If you have food, a place to sleep, and clothes to wear,
You are richer than most in the world. So is there
A reason to be grateful? Most definitely!
There is more than enough one can be grateful for.

If you’ve never experienced imprisonment,
Or the pangs of starvation, you’re more fortunate
Than one half billion people. If you can attend
A church meeting, not fearing it may be the end
Of existence, you have reason to celebrate.
Let the numbers enlighten you to some extent.

Treasuring our divinity means being in
A constant state of appreciation. Looking
For occasions to be joyful and in a state
Of sheer gratitude is the best way to create
A fulfilling life no matter what’s happening.
Making peace with where you are is how to begin.

Reverence For Life

Mar16

How can I offer to someone else that which I
Would like to have for myself and not care about
Whether or not I get it? Life has more meaning
As I become more spiritually leaning.
If I have love to give, then there can be no doubt
That there are those who need it. I can’t wonder why.

There is a universal Field of Attention.
Some call it God and some call it Source energy.
It looks like giving with not a thing coming back.
It has nothing to do with the mindset of lack.
It is serving. It doesn’t judge. It constantly
Offers love beyond anyone’s comprehension.

Natural is sincerity and gentleness.
True compassion for others and simplicity
Are the keys to enlightenment. Who I am now
Is someone who has finally learned to allow
Higher consciousness to become a part of me.
It is God within me who I want to express.

To believe that I need what I don’t have is one
Definition of insanity. Already
I have all that I ever need right within me.
The laws of the material world I now see
Don’t define the person who I have come to be.
I cannot get it wrong because it’s never done.

Everything Happens For A Reason

Mar15

Every little or big thing that happens to you
Happens for some good reason. Every condition
Of your life is exactly the way it should be.
There are no accidents. You are absolutely
In the right place. You’re not in a bad position,
Even though it feels like there’s nothing you can do.

In each moment there are two things you can choose from.
You may take advantage of it or you may not.
It is a perfect universe. Nothing is wrong.
Accept the fact that you are right where you belong
Even though it may seem like you’re in a tough spot.
It may be hard to see a fortunate outcome.

Think of yourself as connected to everything
Rather than someone who is being victimized.
It’s all part of the perfection of existence.
You can make yours a wonderful experience
When in each moment some lesson is recognized.
You’ll be surprised by what your acceptance can bring.

Look for what’s in it for you and things will work out
For the better. You can get out in front of it
And learn from it. The way to your enlightenment
Is to know your connection in any event.
Circumstances get better if you will permit
Them to do so, which means getting rid of your doubt.

Shift Your Thoughts

Mar15

What’s missing isn’t missing. It’s well on the way.
Think about manifesting this way and you will
Be in perfect alignment with your cherished dream.
Don’t be fearful of focusing in the extreme
On the thing that you’re wanting. Just go for the thrill
Of daydreaming. In a positive mood you’ll stay.

There’s no trick to getting your thoughts more harmonized
With ‘that which does nothing but leaves nothing undone.’
It can be the natural way you think always.
Life can be offered to you with fragrant bouquets.
You’re that which is eternal, and you are the one
Who can choose to be happy and God energized.

“With my luck it won’t work out.” This sick attitude
Is a tape played by many. “With my luck it will
Show up faster than normal.” Now, this is the way
To speak to the universe. It’s a brand-new day
When you can get the negative mind to be still.
You’ll achieve easily whatever is pursued.

You will become a collaborator with fate.
When you let go of gossip, the cheap tabloid news,
And the negative circus. You can radiate
Outward God realized thinking. Do not let hate
Become part of your consciousness. You are one whose
Powerful mind can keep you in a happy state.

Discipline Your Thinking

Mar14

If you are what you think about, then you have to
Start getting really careful about what you think.
You do this by being cautious about every
Conversation you have with others who may be
Of a negative mindset. You don’t want to drink
From the well of confusion whatever you do.

Don’t focus on what’s missing in your life and speak
To others all about it. That will amplify
The vibration of lack, and you will attract more
Of the same situation. It slams shut the door
To receiving. There are certain laws that apply
To the art of attaining all that you may seek.

You can only act upon your thoughts, and as your
Thoughts become higher and higher, you’re more aligned
With the things that you want. You will then act upon
Only those thoughts. Your sense of confusion is gone,
And it’s all done by the power of your own mind.
Of its wonder you can be absolutely sure.

Don’t believe that the world is a terrible place.
It’s a wonderful schoolhouse with lots of contrast.
You don’t have to buy into a sickened world view.
You are only either a host to God or you
Are a hostage to your ego. Screw the newscast.
Do anything that will keep a smile on your face.

The Simple Secret To Happiness

Mar14

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.

Becoming

Mar13

You will have an awareness that lets you see things
That were kept hidden from you. You still will chop wood,
Carry water, and meditate. You will enhance
The meaning of coincidence. Life is not chance
When the laws of the universe are understood.
You become tolerant of the mind’s wanderings.

You won’t entertain doubts about your worthiness.
You will feel loved and nourished spiritually.
Both your inner and outer experiences
Have new meaning. You’ll find no need for defenses.
You are the universal source of energy.
When you know this you have unlimited access.

Fear that immobilizes you will go away
As you feel the presence of the divine in you.
All weakness and falsehood come from the refusal
To accept divine guidance. You can’t play it small
By your not realizing what you know is true.
The evolved self within you is on full display.

You’ll know the power and ecstasy of silence.
It’s the only voice of our God. All profound things
And emotions are preceded and attended
By omnipotent silence. It’s rather splendid.
You become more conscious of divine offerings.
Becoming is a wonderful experience.

The Strangest Secret

Mar13

You know how to get something, but to Be something
Is the essence in all things whatever they be.
You must Be health. You mustn’t be trying to get
It from pills or your doctor who may be a threat.
You must Be the thing you want most absolutely.
Your mindset determines what your asking can bring.

Human beings become whatever it is they
Visualize themselves to be. It’s no secret,
But it’s strange to imagine that it would become
Information that people would be shielded from.
Imagination is a powerful asset.
It can get anything you want to come your way.

You were taught not to see yourself as confident
As a child, but it was for your own protection.
You were not encouraged to take risks, but you must!
There’s no one or no thing in this world you can trust.
When you are focused in the proper direction,
Then no one can knock you out of your alignment.

The subconscious mind does not distinguish between
What is real and the images you’ve created
With your conscious mind. You can change reality
By imagining and expecting it to be.
Any dream unfulfilled can be celebrated.
Many things you can do about how life is seen.

Attract What You Want

Mar12

“As you think, so shall you be.” There are many ways
To acquire things that you want, but basically,
It begins with how you choose to think about things.
Ultimately, only positive thinking brings
What you want to be part of your reality.
How do you get more happiness into your days?

You become what you think about throughout the day.
Thoughts expand. Then they become a magnetic force
That attracts situations that match their nature.
It’s important to make sure you’re thinking is pure.
Thinking unconsciously causes certain remorse
Because there is nothing turning out quite your way.

You can’t give away what you don’t have. So you know
That you can’t give away love if there’s none to give.
If what you have inside you is contempt and fear,
It’s difficult to consider anyone dear.
It is up to you to decide how you will live.
You must have love within you or it cannot show.

“When you change the way you look at things, the things you
Look at change.” It’s because of your powerful mind
That you are where you are now. It’s the beginning
Of developing an attitude of winning.
You can leave all the negative feelings behind
So that you can discover a life that is new.

Those Internal Callings

Mar12

What most people regret when they come to the end
Of their journey on this earth is that they did not
Have the courage to live the life they were meant to.
We are all destined. We each have something to do
That’s unique and of value. You can do a lot
More than you may believe. Your doubt you can transcend.

Most people are living their lives just to fit in.
They are doomed to follow somebody else’s rules.
Most of us don’t allow ourselves the freedom to
Listen to Those Internal Callings that come through
To the surface of consciousness. They are the tools
Of divine inspiration and not those of sin.

The most important thing about being inspired
Is to understand what the word inspired does mean.
If you break it down, it means, ‘in spirit,’ and so,
It’s a message from spirit. It’s good that you know
That you are spirit and that you’re senses are keen
In perceiving that part of you if so desired.

You don’t have to die to be in touch with spirit.
That’s because you are spirit. From that awareness,
Everything shifts. There’s nothing that you cannot do.
You have accessed the most exalted part of you.
What is it in this world that you want to express?
There’s no reason on earth that you’d have to fear it.

Acting From A Broader Perspective

Mar11

What it’s like to be human is what we all share.
No matter what we look like or how we behave,
Each and everyone of us is a part of God.
Is this notion blasphemous? Let’s lose the façade
Of complete separation. The soul to be saved
Is the one who does not want to become aware.

The body has its limits. There are boundaries
Regarding its performance. The mind, however,
Can think any thought it wants. It is limitless.
Through our thinking we have unlimited access
To the highest of wisdom. In your endeavor
To think uplifting thoughts, you find comfort and ease.

You don’t have to be Mother Teresa to see
Divineness in all people. We each have a heart.
We all know what it feels like to hurt deep inside
And we know happiness. It cannot be denied
To the ‘least’ of us. Each one of us is a part
Of the whole and the essence of divinity.

Look into who you’re looking at and let them know
That you care what they think about and how they feel.
We each have an observer – the small voice within.
From a broader perspective the heart will begin
To see past form and get to the part that is real.
In this way then spiritually you will grow.

Thought Is Yours

Mar11

Everything that is in the universe vibrates.
The magic of your cell phone will demonstrate this.
Electrons move at light speed. With the naked eye,
You perceive things as solid and may not care why
Everything is in motion. You cannot dismiss
The reality of how the world operates.

At the atomic level, things are quite alive.
There’s a dance going on with everything you see.
There are things that exist that you cannot perceive,
But in high-definition signals you believe.
This is how you experience reality.
It is like data stored on you solid state drive.

Think of all your relationships. What constitutes
Your connection with all of them? It’s only thought.
Everything that has happened to you until now
Is through your mind. Does this knowledge raise an eyebrow?
It’s an amazing thing what your thinking has brought
To your present reality its attributes.

Thought Is Yours to do anything with that you please,
And when you use your thought in cooperation
With the laws of the universe, you will vibrate
To the tune of your calling, and you will create
A better world around you. Start having more fun.
Get accustomed to how your inner being sees.

A Spiritual Solution

Mar10

There’s an omnipotent spiritual Force at
Our fingertips that contains the solution to
All our problems. Their vibrations are different
From that of their solutions. If I’m in torment,
Then there is one of two things I can choose to do.
Life is not any more complicated than that.

I find myself reacting to situations
Instead of responding in a calm and cool way.
When the world seems insane, I can take a step back,
But I don’t sometimes. That’s why I’m so out of whack.
I create my own crises. The price that I pay
In so doing is seeking unwise solutions.

To react from a place of fear or to respond
From a place of alignment… These are my choices.
It’s easy to trust life when things are going well,
But through times of uncertainty and certain hell,
Can I get to a place where my heart rejoices?
Yes, it’s possible. My mind is a magic wand.

I’m the conscious decision maker of how I
Feel in each and every moment. I can impact
This world in better ways, if spiritually,
I can see the bigger picture much more clearly.
With the Force that supports me, I keep close contact.
It can become for me a most helpful ally.

Your Own Candle Flame

Mar10

Whatever you’ve got going on in your life in
The way of animosity, pain, bitterness,
Or anguish toward anyone, it will never
Let you go. It will cling on to you forever.
It will interfere greatly with your life unless
You do something about it. Where should you begin?

Let it go. You don’t have to make any phone calls
Or let anyone else know. You can purify
Your heart by simply saying, “Love is forgiving.
It is also for giving.” The life you’re living
Can be free of toxicity if you will try
To eliminate all of your negative walls.

Only orange juice can come from an orange when it’s squeezed.
When you are under pressure, what tends to come out?
If it’s anger, hatred, tension and depression,
Then that must have been in you. Its full expression
Is triggered by the squeezing. Is there any doubt
That you can get quite nasty when you are displeased?

There is a candle that burns inside you always.
It cannot be extinguished completely, although
Wind and moisture will cause it to dance and flicker.
You can make the wick of your own candle thicker
By remembering all that you are meant to know.
As your flame remains steady, it brightens your days.

Life Can Cause You To Feel Better

Mar9

There are many more consciousnesses focused here
In this physical plane of existence than there
Are people on the planet. There’s quite a party
Going on all around us that we do not see,
But we know that it’s possible to be aware
Of the nonphysical if our hearts are sincere.

We summon the collective. Multifaceted
Is our nature. Consciousness needs not a body
Necessarily. It’s a continuous stream.
Our awareness of our bodies does make it seem
That we are separated. This happens to be
An illusion that the mind is constantly fed.

Things that happen to people that they can’t explain
Are the doings of those who are disembodied.
From that vantage point, they often communicate
With the ‘living.’ When we’re in a receptive state,
We are hip to their antics and don’t feel the need
To be cautious. In fact, there can be much to gain.

You don’t miss the water until the well runs dry.
In the same way, you do not miss your connection
To the whole of who you are until you have not
Had it for such a while that your spirit is shot.
Look upon your community with affection.
Wonderful things will happen, and you will know why.

Love Of Life

Mar9

To turn thoughts into things is why you have come here
To this leading-edge planet. You’re an extension
Of divine energy. You are co-creating
With eight billion others. It’s a wonderful thing
To be living in this physical dimension.
There are so many things within it to hold dear.

This environment is one of diversity –
Not of sameness. The world is becoming much more
Than it ever was. You came to participate
In this mass evolution. You appreciate
Every opportunity you have to explore
The contrast to determine how good life can be.

You knew things that you knew you would not remember
Upon coming here. There is a separation
That you fully agreed to, but you have guidance.
Don’t think that you arrived here totally by chance.
You are part of the magnificent creation
Of a life on earth that most people would prefer.

You love taking your inner being to places
That it has never been before. You’re its tour guide
As it leads you to happiness along the way.
It does not condemn you if you choose to betray
Its influence. You have the freedom to decide
To be receptive to spiritual graces.

Feel Better Always

Mar8

Contrast is, by its nature, a wonderful thing.
It gives meaning to life. You need not feel badly
In the midst of a difficult situation.
You have choices, but before anything is done,
Feel your way to a better place. Then you will see
Clearly the value the contrast is offering.

What makes contrast not feel good is choosing poorly.
When you find fault with someone and feel negative
Emotion overcome you, you’ve not chosen well.
It’s a fortunate thing when quickly you can tell
That it’s happening. It isn’t worthwhile to give
That feeling more attention than there needs to be.

Why go there and feel that way? What sense can it make
To stay stuck in an ornery disposition?
It takes determination to get yourself free
From the torment. You must vow to live happily.
Your dreams then have the chance to come to fruition.
Know how you want to feel with every breath you take.

The difference between asking and complaining
Is enormous. Before your thought gains momentum,
You decide that it’s going to be a request.
Nothing will come about if it’s wrongly expressed.
You can get used to beating the happiness drum.
Keep yourself aligned with what is joy sustaining.

Mental Organization

Mar8

Organizing your mind is something you can do
Easily, and once organization is done,
Anything that you wish happens. You have control
Over much in your life. It will make you feel whole.
You will get along better with most everyone.
You will always be showing the best side of you.

Everything created on the planet was first
And idea. The mind is a powerful tool.
Wonderful things the mind has created, also
Things of horror. We don’t know which way it could go.
As a species, it seems we’re evoking the fool.
We do not care if things may turn out for the worst.

We can learn to create the right things with the mind
And not live accidentally. That’s creating
At its best, but we’re creating compulsively.
Consciously we can do it. We’re perfectly free
To choose love over interfering and hating.
A fulfilling existence in peace we may find.

The mind tunes the whole system. Your emotional,
Mental, and physical energies, when aligned
All in one direction, will give you clarity.
Otherwise, you’ll be running around endlessly
With no path to be followed. Embrace humankind
With compassion. It is totally natural.

Enjoying Life’s Contrast

Mar7

As my day unfolds, I’m going to do my best
To find my path of least resistance, and it will
Be a fine day. I look forward to the contrast
That life offers. I’ve stopped looking into the past
For fulfillment. This present moment is a thrill
To behold. In it, eternity is expressed.

I can tell by the way I feel what influence
I’m under. I’m either under that of my Source,
Or that of something other, like society,
Or my mother, or anyone who wants to be
In control of me somehow. And this is, of course,
Something I allow, but at enormous expense.

There are times when I’m not in a very good place.
They are plenty in number. I’ll just stop and say,
“Well, that’s perfectly logical,” then leave it there.
Above all, it’s about how I feel that I care.
I’ll pivot from that thought and get on with my day.
It’s my own inner being who I must embrace.

I get over things quickly. I don’t explain how
I got into a bad place. That only will make
Things a lot worse. I can’t get the answer until
I stop asking the question. I know that it will
Manifest as an impulse which I will then take
As a sure sign that I have learned how to allow.

On What Will You Focus?

Mar7

Give more attention to your desire than you do
To your current reality which is causing
You to doubt that it will manifest. Be aware
Of your thoughts and feelings. You don’t have to compare
Yours with others’. Before choosing, it’s worth pausing
For a moment to access the best part of you.

You’re the creator of your own reality.
You do it through your focus. You are much more than
Your physical body. You’re pure Source Energy,
And the more you believe it, the more you will see
Evidence that proves that you definitely can
Have anything you want come to you easily.

Your path of least resistance is not clear for you
If you face your reality as it is now.
You create a much better one by letting go
Of the past and by letting the universe show
You what it can do when you’re prepared to allow.
Be aware of the frequency you are tuned to.

Some would have you tune to theirs, but that’s not the way
It should happen. You have your own guidance system.
You’re building your vibrational reality
Moment by moment. Before you know it, you’ll be
Treating your clear focus like a most precious gem.
Keep your mind on whatever will brighten your day.

Calibrate To Wellbeing

Mar6

My foundation does not start with this body or
With my parents or anything. It is the whole
Of who I am. With eagerness I came into
This contrast and variety. My life is new
And exciting. I have no particular goal.
Everything about this world I came to explore.

A thought that thrills me is one worth my pursuing,
And one that disappoints me is one that is not.
There’s no way I can feel unworthy of the bliss.
My feelings are my guidance. I’m glad I know this.
What I’m thinking and feeling does matter a lot.
I find fulfillment in whatever I’m doing.

I do not want to behave ‘appropriately’
By accepting the notion that life is supposed
To be hard and that suffering is a virtue.
Pardon me, world, but that is not my point of view.
‘Socialized’ people have hearts and minds that are closed
To the idea of living resistance free.

It’s easy to calibrate to ‘what is,’ but it
Takes a master to calibrate to what is not
Yet apparent. It does take determination,
Focus, and clarity. I am here to have fun.
I try to remember what most people forgot.
Everything I learn must be to my benefit.

When I Don’t Feel Like Doing It.

Mar6

I just don’t feel like doing it, and I’m afraid
That my procrastination is not good for my
Growing business. If I’m action oriented,
Then there’s only one way for me to get ahead.
It’s by acting, but I don’t know the reason why
I’m not feeling excited. In fact, I’m dismayed.

If I get moving anyway even though I
Don’t feel like it, the result will be disaster.
It can’t be the right time if I don’t feel like it.
What could I do that would be to my benefit?
Is there yet another skill set I must master?
Is there some way of dealing with this I can try?

If I let go of the oars, my boat turns downstream.
Alignment before action is the way to go.
My dominant intent is to give my thoughts to
My dream so profoundly that it has to come true.
I’ll receive by insight all that I need to know.
My alignment with my dream must remain supreme.

Action can be delicious when done from a place
Of my knowing and feeling deep inside of me
That I must be delighted in getting things done.
I remember how in the beginning I had fun.
That place of fulfillment is where I want to be.
I will do what I do with a smile on my face.

About Money

Mar5

Money is representative of energy.
Energy equals mass times the speed of light squared.
So there is plenty of it. The concept of lack
Comes from people whose vibrations are out of whack.
You don’t have much if your consciousness is impaired,
And it need not be this way necessarily.

You want to feel your freedom. You want more choices,
And you want to expand. All these feelings you can
Muster with or without the money in your hand,
Though it gets there more quickly if you understand
That a bright attitude is always a good plan.
Life is magnificent when the heart rejoices.

Go to the emotional point of the issue.
If you’re not anywhere near a happy feeling,
Then avoid it. It’s to big a dragon to slay.
Reaching for a better feeling thought is the way
To abundance and a life that’s most appealing.
Find alignment with the innermost part of you.

Find alignment because it’s delicious to find
Alignment. The result is your receiving more
Than you could have imagined. The money will come.
Do not think about where on earth it will come from.
Remain focused on all of the things you adore.
It’s a wonderful way to keep yourself aligned.

When You Really Want Something

Mar5

Let’s say you’re without something that you really want.
Your thoughts are dominated. You’re almost obsessed
With this something. It keeps you up all through the night.
That it’s not coming to you just doesn’t seem right.
You believe you are giving it only your best.
There is nothing about life that you care to vaunt.

You need not write it down again or set a goal.
The larger part of you has already received
Your request and is on it. Bring yourself into
Alignment with its coming. The more you can do
To release some resistance, the more is achieved
For receiving what is at the heart of your soul.

Go more general at first. Your situation
Truly sucks, so diffuse the specifics of it.
From a broader perspective, this too shall pass on.
You will feel better when some resistance is gone
From your overall makeup. You’ve the benefit
Of the freedom of choosing your best vibration.

Through your suffering, you have already begun
The process of receiving. You were in a place
Of not being receptive to helpful insight
That will lead you to what you want. It’s a delight
When, while wanting, you can keep a smile on your face.
In this way, you can better your situation.

Pay Attention To One Thing

Mar4

There are lots of things you can’t control with action,
But you can control anything from the standpoint
Of alignment with what you believe can come true.
Controlling your vibration is easy to do.
It’s a magical essence you use to anoint
Every day of your life with excitement and fun.

When you get to a place, though, where you can create
What you want, you stop trying to make anything
Happen for you. Things just seem to fall into place.
It’s as if you have tapped into infinite grace,
And it’s true. It’s amazing what focus can bring
Into your life experience and not by fate.

The vibrational frequency you’re achieving,
Practicing and maintaining attracts unto you
Everything that you have. What your mind can believe
Has everything to do with what you can receive.
What will you get if you’re constantly feeling blue?
Innocent little thoughts of lack are deceiving.

There’s no ‘Should I or shouldn’t I’ when you’re aligned
With who you really are. There’s only certainty
That things always work out for you in the long run.
There’s no rush and no effort in getting things done.
Pay Attention To One Thing: how to get happy.
Abundance and wellbeing you’re likely to find.

Prepare For Receiving

Mar4

What’s the question? How can I find more clarity?
How can I get my body to be at its best?
How can I find a lover who’s just right for me?
I would like for things to come to me easily.
The answer is, Get Happy, succinctly expressed.
I know deep in my heart it’s my reason to be.

How do I endure the injustice of this one
Person or thing that I have no control over?
This world can’t be an awful place, although there are
Pockets of negativity, but it is far
From upsetting the balance. It is, as it were,
A problem that will work out its own solution.

I just can’t look at things that make me unhappy.
I can’t do the impossible. I must decide
To be happy above all else. No condition
Is required. I can keep my main focus on fun.
How I feel on my journey is my only guide.
I can’t focus on all of the world’s cruelty.

The more I can get happy, then the easier
It becomes, and the easier it gets, the more
Joy I’ll find. I am offering a vibration
To where only the things that I want have begun
To become my reality. What I ask for
I receive. It is the life that I most prefer.

Instant Treasure

Mar3

Knowing has less resistance than belief, and doubt
Has a lot of resistance. You’re on a journey
Endless in its duration. You’re somewhere between
Your belief and your knowing what has not been seen
As of yet. You remain as happy as can be.
There’s no need for you to figure anything out.

Knowing has no resistance. Belief has a bit
In that in your believing, you are noticing
The absence of what you want. This must be okay
Since there’s no way around it. You cannot betray
Laws of physics or spirit. When you are knowing,
Then belief is of no functional benefit.

What will it really feel like when your dream comes true?
Grab a hold of that feeling, in fact, fantasize
And milk it for all its worth. Get into a state
Of excitement. In essence, you don’t have to wait
For the thing that you want to materialize
To feel good in this moment. What else can you do?

Talk about the prosperity in your life now.
Things you have already you can appreciate.
Feel as happy on your way as you will be when
You get there. You can feel good again and again.
It’s the wonderful journey you want to create
In each moment. In this way, you learn to allow.

Stop Trying To Change Others

Mar3

In this world there are only two groups. There are those
Who are, in this moment, under the influence
Of who they truly are. There are also those who
Are fueled by something else which has nothing to do
With their natural goodness. There’s the existence
Of extreme maladjustment that harms as it shows.

There are groups calibrated to Source Energy
At any given moment. The ones that are not
Can’t be changed in terms of their feelings and ideals.
Antisocial action by such people reveals
That their sense of themselves is tied into a knot.
They know that they’re not being who they meant to be.

Uniqueness is a blessing, and diversity
And expansion is natural to existence.
If you spend your time trying to figure out why
People are the way they are, you’re destined to die
With your life unfulfilled. It is with great expense
That you consider hatred as reality.

It’s just too much to sort out. The way people feel,
Think, and see things should not be of any concern
To your creative process. Be and let things be.
Happiness, when it’s chosen, will set yourself free.
There is not much about love that you need to learn.
Happy moments are those wherein you get to heal.

One Simple Trick

Mar2

Once your desire is strong, your body and your mind
Naturally move in the direction of that
Which is wanted. Sometimes the mind gets in the way.
All the negative clutter will surely betray
Your initial intention. Your wanting falls flat.
The challenge is to stay positively aligned.

From the mind comes everything ever created.
Through its complex machinery all came to be.
It can be trained to focus in the direction
Of delight in each moment and having more fun.
Keep your mind in a condition of clarity.
It’s your freedom to be constantly elated.

Wherever your desire is, your mind will be there.
Can someone or something take your mind off the prize?
It happens all too often, unfortunately.
As you rid yourself of some negativity
You recover your passion, and you energize
Rather than be de-energized into despair.

The mind is like a mirror. If there’s distortion,
You cannot see things clearly, but when it is clean,
Then the vision is absolutely amazing.
Be more conscientious about what you’re thinking.
The reflection of a happy life can be seen
In your own mental mirror. True sight has begun.

Test Your Universe

Mar2

You can be joyful without having to pretend.
If you think that you must be, you’re trying too hard.
Separate the experience of feeling good
From the headache. If you do not feel as you should,
Don’t fake it, but be true to yourself with regard
To the difficult feeling you want to transcend.

You can have an emotional experience
That is totally different from how you feel
In your physical body by focusing on
Lovely things. With some practice, your pain could be gone
In a short while. The point is to feel as ideal
As you can in the moment. Is this making sense?

Diminish the percentage of airtime you give
To the visceral sensation by focusing
Upon other things that will invigorate you.
The alternative is that you will remain blue.
You will be surprised by what feeling good can bring.
People will be astonished by the life you live.

You’re a selective sifter which means you create
By sorting through the contrast. There are things that you
Find delightful but also things that need changing.
You must know that the universe is arranging
The cooperative components for your new
Way of feeling. To get there, you don’t have to wait.

On Religion And Science

Mar1

Is it my human nature that wants to know why
Things are happening? Out of curiosity,
I collect enough data then hypothesize.
It is through observation that I realize
The nature and structure of my reality.
I become more aware of the laws that apply.

Faith, they say, is a ‘mystery.’ They’ve got that right.
It’s one hell of a practice to praise ignorance
Of what is known and at the same time needing it
To support one’s faith. It’s to no one’s benefit
To remain in a perpetual game of chance.
Can the data give all some proof of inner sight?

Does faith need the support of the data to be
Truly faithful? The contract with data is made
That whatever is said of this reality
Doesn’t matter. Scripture is all there is to see.
If the data do matter, attention is paid
To getting one’s faith and the data to agree.

There could very well be data that would conflict
With religious philosophy. Then one has to
Go along with it. Actually what occurs
Is that data are translated as one prefers.
Some blinders are required to maintain the ‘right’ view.
They all have the propensity to contradict.
