Responding To Negative Emotion

Anger Mob

When the natives get restless who should get uptight?
There’s no answer that makes any logical sense
Because it’s human nature. When we do something
That hurts us we keep doing it and it won’t bring
Any change in behavior so at great expense
We ignore any consensus on what is right.

I’m aware of my feelings. They’re moving toward
Something I don’t want happening. I’m asking for
Reassurance that I can get back to a place
Of alignment with who I am. I’m not my race.
I’m a spirit who should be giving a lot more
Attention to the fact that by God I’m adored.

I catch the feeling before it gains momentum
Then I can do something with it rather than let
It take me places that I would rather not go.
How I feel right now is all that I need to know.
Life cannot seem to me to be a constant threat.
My inner being is where all my strength comes from.

If I have an opinion about anything
And I don’t feel well as I’m thinking about it
It means that my inner being doesn’t agree
With what I’m thinking. It becomes then good for me
To be mindful of the vibration I transmit.
Negative emotion I find interesting.

Energetic Stress

It’s not that big a crisis but still your distressed.
Bordering on psychosis you think way too much
About things that you cannot resolve right away.
It feels like your whole life’s in total disarray.
At the moment you seem to be far out of touch
With your true self which now is severely suppressed.

You’re not out of touch nor are you disconnected
From your true self because it’s the main part of you.
Temporary is your circumstance. Be aware
Of the logic that can lead you out of despair
And right into a situation that is new.
Negative emotion should not be expected.

If a spark from the fireplace lands on your sweater
And you brush it off quickly not much harm is done
But if you say, “My goodness!”, by that time you will
Be on fire. By the same token you can’t sit still
With a problem that seems to have no solution.
You can always find a way of feeling better.

You can render inactive your disappointment
With yourself for whatever by remembering
That your true self has a different opinion
Than you do about most things. You can be someone
Who can be happy no matter what’s happening.
Any state you can reach through your conscious intent.

Don’t Worry About What Others Think

Insecure

People spend most of their lives in gut wrenching fear
Of what others may think of them. They lie awake
At night wondering how they would cope without the
Approval of others, and they obsessively
Change their image when they find the slightest mistake.
They can’t get satisfaction from how they appear.

To the verdicts of strangers we all surrender
Our freedom to fail gracefully. Those we don’t know
And don’t even like all that much we cater to.
Even though we don’t like being told what to do,
We do it without thinking. It causes us woe.
We play the role of the malignant pretender.

Don’t complain. Don’t explain yourself to anyone.
“Become independent of the good opinion
Of other people.”
Trust yourself. You and only

You know the enlightened one you were meant to be.
Don’t let other people’s judgments have dominion
Over how you feel. Then awareness has begun.

When we really mess up, almost no one will be
Looking or caring very much. They’re too involved
With their own issues. Our disgrace will be subsumed
Into social amnesia, so we’re never doomed
By unwanted attention. One who is evolved
Is above that kind of negative energy.

The Life That You Want

Happy Thoughts

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

Work Woe

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?

Unconditional Joy

The Essence of Bliss

The big bang of conditions began long ago
With all time, space, and matter. Our humanity
Takes it to the next level. We give them the chance
To control how we feel in every circumstance.
If conditions are good then it’s easy to be
In a state of pure joy. The reverse isn’t so.

But to have no control over how I’m feeling
Is to give away personal power freely
To outside circumstances. In living this way
It is my sense of who I am that I betray.
Things must be damned near perfect before I can be
Happier in this moment. Heartache that must bring.

Do not turn on the TV whatever you do.
It will bring you a tidal wave of conditions.
News networks search the planet for things that they know
Will frighten and upset you. Continuous flow,
Dramatized and with music, the shit cycle runs
People’s schedules and spirits. Most haven’t a clue.

One must form an opinion when taking life in.
It’s the way we are programmed. Our psyches digest
All conditions they’re given. Do give it a break
For to indulge it too much would be a mistake.
Take the guidance of what your own spirit knows best.
There’s no time like the present for you to begin.
