Stop Looking For It And It Will Come

Something’s lost. You can’t find it. So what do you do?
You start looking all over the place once again.
Still it’s not showing up. Now you’re in panic mode.
At some point you approach a decisive crossroad.
You give up and forget about it which is when
Information about where it is comes to you.

When you know that the universe knows where things are
Then you know that the knowledge of their location
Is available to you. You have to chill out
And stop entertaining thoughts of worry and doubt.
Searching further will only lead to frustration.
Anything that is lost cannot be very far.

When you’re not spending so much time worrying where
It could possibly be you become open to
The impulse to look somewhere you wouldn’t expect
Otherwise. This information you can’t reject.
You’ll be stuck in eternal search mode if you do.
There are many things found in your life. Focus there.

There’s nothing outside of your reach. You just have to
Train yourself to the frequency of it and be
More trusting of the universe to deliver
What you need to know to you. It is the giver
Of all knowledge. Your goal is to live happily.
All that’s lost will then make its way to finding you.

When Things Aren’t Working Out

Jan28

The money isn’t flowing. Your body is sick.
Your lover has just left you and you hate your job.
Does this cover the gamut of what’s going wrong
In your life? Does it have to be such a sad song?
At the moment it’s quite enough to make you sob.
On you it seems that life is playing a mean trick.

As you focus on any of them the distress
Becomes greater. You cannot hit any head on
Without feeling discomfort. You only prolong
And make much of your agony. To remain strong
Is a challenge. Much of your energy has gone
To continuing with this life draining process.

Step back from the specifics that are already
Activated and find something that causes you
To feel good now like taking in the beauty of
A flower, the whole earth, or the stars up above.
Do whatever it takes to return yourself to
Feeling much better as you should naturally.

You can’t change what has already happened but you
Can always find a way to feel better right now.
You can clean out that closet or wash the damned car.
These achievements will prove to yourself that you are
Able to feel much better able to allow
The wellbeing that you are most entitled to.

Nonphysical Forces

Dec13

It’s been said that there’s nothing to worry about
As the earth spins in perfect proximity to
The sun and other planets. The physical world
Is an elegant mystery to be unfurled
And respected because it’s the right thing to do.
It’s a wonder how everything seems to work out.

Before time, space, and physical reality…
Or perhaps along with it, the spiritual
World existed. It gave birth to all that is known
To be physical. It means that we’re not alone
In this huge cosmic haystack though it’s natural
For a person to think that’s the way it must be.

Outside time and perception there’s no resistance
To the flow of thought energy so consciousness
Is complete and eternal. It has to take part
In creation. This notion is taken to heart
By all those who have nothing but love to express.
All of existence didn’t just happen by chance.

All those who’ve come before you who have passed away
Are still with you. They’re focused on your here and now.
Are you letting the magic happen or are you
Pinching it of by doing that thing that you do
That prevents it? It doesn’t take much to allow
Spiritual forces to take part in your day.

A New Place

Jun16

I’m alone with this person. Myself is its name.
Other people know of it. I know not a thing.
In the distant horizon that calls unto me
I can see the potential to absolutely
Be relieved of my troubles. My longing can bring
Only more desolation, and I am to blame.

Into the equation, I am introducing
Resistance inadvertently. This may be why
That I feel that my world is caving in on me.
At this point I want nothing more than to be free
Of this mission. It seems that the harder I try,
The more negative karma I keep producing.

Escapism is not a career building trait
Nor is it a good technique for getting along
With others. The next logical step then must be
Reemergence – not in terms of fatality.
Everything within me tells me that would be wrong.
Thoughts collide and keep me in a negative state.

Now, a good crisis hotline person would tell me
That I’m not such a screw up, and that may be true.
I can find reassurance by going within
Where A New Place absolves my original sin
Of existence. There’s much here that I’ve left to do.
Like everyone here, I have a reason to be.

Shorten The Time

Nov10

Happy Days were upon us. Some want their return
And will do anything to grasp tightly those roots.
Onward though does the dial move away from the past.
Fettered dreams of simplicity fade away fast
In the heated up present. Regretful pursuits
Are the game plans of many with little concern.

Some believe our democracy hangs by a thread
As perhaps it did always from its bloody start.
It is something to fight for. Just saying the word
At the start of our sports events is as absurd
As the sheer lack of justice that cuts to the heart
Of a once perceived order that now appears dead.

All the things that I’ve wanted this nation to be
Is a dream that I still have. The contrast is good
As it causes me to fill in much more detail.
I’d prefer it not be at the pace of a snail.
How do I cut the time frame, indeed if I could?
…By not focusing on things I don’t want to see.

I improve my ability to recognize
What it is that I’m wanting. It’s perceptual
In its humble beginning. Yet it picks up speed.
Focusing more there, I am essentially freed
To explore all the fruits of my best accrual.
One small change in my outlook is one worthy prize.
