Decide To Get Happy

Life is not complicated but we make it so
Because we don’t remember the promise we made
To ourselves before we were born to be happy.
It’s so simple yet we can’t do it easily.
For decades we’ve been on a survival crusade
And we’re weary due to all the pain and sorrow.

Many books have been written about feeling good
But there isn’t anything that you didn’t know
The day you were born. You’re just being reminded
Of what you have forgotten. We’ve all been blinded
By the bright light of reason that won’t let us grow
Into happiness as easily as we should.

Getting happy means making peace with where you are.
In most cases you need not take any action
But do whatever it takes to get yourself there.
About how you feel you must give your utmost care.
In this universe it’s all about attraction
And a state of contentment is never too far.

Being glad to wake up and being excited
About life is delicious. You were meant to be
Happily ever wandering this wonderland.
Simple happiness isn’t hard to understand.
Even in a most fragmented society
You can find a way to always be delighted.

There Is No Tomorrow

Aug18

Tomorrow is the carrot attached to the horse.
As the horse moves, the carrot moves. So tomorrow
Never comes because when it does it’s called today
Which can’t be quite the same. It’s difficult to stay
In the present if you’re focused on some sorrow
Of the past or the future. It steers you off course.

Life itself I have. I have no philosophy
About life. I simply become quiet then I
Am in tune with existence and love arises
Within me and a part of me realizes
That There Is No Tomorrow. I don’t have to try
To be there. In the present is where I should be.

Life becomes abundant. Outbursts of laughter for
No reason will occur just because this whole thing
Of existence is in so many ways funny.
There are those who know much about philosophy
But they lack life. The practice of silence will bring
About inner peace, good health, abundance, and more.

It’s a process of worrying. Neither is there
Any yesterday. All that exists is right now.
Be present in this moment and see what happens
In your life. You’re now able to see through the lens
Of existence with clarity and to allow
Blessings to rain upon you of which you can share.

Happily Ever After

Oct18

Why do you define yourself in such terms of lack?
You cannot look at yourself in bogus ways, nor
Can you argue for your limitations and be
Happy in your life. Forget the past completely.
Feeling better than you have ever felt before
Is a good game when the universe has your back.

You have been trained to look through your physical eyes.
You can learn to feel through vibrational senses.
Do not think your way to it. Find the feeling then
Let the thoughts flow. A deep soothing will happen when
You consume life as it joyfully commences.
Talk yourself into feeling your way to the prize.

“It’s alright. I’m just fine. I was born to be here.
I’m on my path. I’m pure positive energy.
Ideas are flowing to me. Inspiration
Comes to me. I have so much appreciation
For the things I’ve got going that benefit me.
Well enough is in progress. I’ll not interfere.”

General is the way to go – no specific.
Life is meant to be fun. Wellbeing is assured.
Make peace with yourself. Make it alright where you are.
Don’t let others guide you to a place that is far
From where you want to be. Your desire has matured
To where your life can be a virtual picnic.

Sixty Eight Seconds

Apr27

In four times that it takes for a thought to become
Registered in the psyche, magic can take place
In the way of pure freedom of seeing just how
My own thoughts that are negative must disallow
The least bit of attention. I know that my grace
Is in going more general. I’ll beat that drum.

If I start off by thinking of just having fun…
People laughing and moving about gleefully…
Then more thoughts like that follow. But if I get stuck
In a negative thought stream, am I out of luck?
Noticing when I am there may train me to be
Mindful of how, in general, life is to run.

If my thought takes a downturn, and I act quickly,
I can simply stop thinking it before it grows
Into much of a monster. I can start again
Going general until I reach the point when
I can do it unconsciously. Who would oppose
Having heart healing focus? That wouldn’t be me.

The specifics fill into my general view
Of this life that I’m given as I play along
Not opposing the present. The way things may be
May not be the reason for my not being free
To live life any better than utterly wrong.
In a handful of seconds, all can become new.

Just A Few Laughs Away

Mar26

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.

Clear Bad Karma

Oct23

The word Karma means action. Whose? That would be mine.
The most dynamic way to exist as beings,
Karma I live through is responsibility
That I have for my own life, and naturally,
It extends as far outward among offerings
As my strongest vibration. With this I am fine.

My life is my own making. That’s what the word means.
My successes and failures are all but my own.
Anytime I can see this in full clarity
Is a time for the crafting of my destiny.
Actions past for which my unclean soul must atone
I can safely call fated as important scenes.

Since my life is my karma no one else takes charge.
The word ‘blame’ has no meaning and is a poor game.
Those who think that their lives are caused from the outside
Have it fairy assed backwards. Were I they, I’d hide
For the lame act that they perform only brings shame
They’re likely to encounter while roaming at large.

My thoughts and my emotions, actions, and focus
Are then orientated to get me where I
Need to go in the business of daily living.
Life is lived from the inside, and in its giving,
I embrace all the drama and not wonder why
I have less time for negative things to discuss.

Decide To Get Happy

Sep1

There’s so much information about feeling good.
Tons of books, affirmations, and many techniques
Are available to me. The volume is great.
I can’t take it all in because I complicate
Processes when simplicity my dumb soul seeks.
Truly I wish that these things could be understood.

Can this Law Of Attraction stuff work out for me?
What the hell is ‘vibration?’ I need to be schooled.
These ethereal concepts are hard to digest.
Where the hell is my stuff anyway. I’m hard pressed
To come into alignment. Perhaps I am fooled
By my excessive efforts to finally see.

It’s not so complicated. All that has been said
About living a life that is most fulfilling
Is reduced to one phrase: “Decide To Get Happy.”
All the mountains of words and procedures can be
Understood a lot better if I am willing
To let go of the struggle. It’s all in my head.

I just need to Get Happy. That’s in the mind too.
I’ve practiced being ornery for quite a while.
I can best harness the Power Of Feeling Good
By engaging in all that I possibly should
To enhance my alignment and brighten my smile.
I can feel my way into a life that is new.
