Inner Strength

Life’s trials and tribulations can have a completely varied consistency and everyone has power to choose how to react.  Just because it seems you haven’t gotten a fair shake doesn’t mean you can’t make your own luck.  Sometimes we find ourselves backed up into a corner but I know that if I can manage my fusebox and not to panic or bundle up my energies I can flow from being trapped to more one with my reality.  The creative energy in free flow has the power to shock and surprise as well as provide a lift.  To the effect of finding a balance I practice grounding my energy to the effect of making positive vibrations.  A stream of consciousness that flows from the greenest of earth’s environment is in constant growth and as I reflect I wonder how I became so short-tempered in my journey through life.  I’ve learned that if I set my self up to be calm, the odds are in my favor.  Still I know that it could take some mustard to face the difficulties that challenge me.  It’s a timing thing, I’m at my best when there isn’t any dispute towards what my intentions are.  I feel real.  I have a sad disposition to sympathy in the cases of many a tragedy.  It can become difficult to accept.  Beauty, truth and reality can become my own worst enemy but I long for my world to finally align with the intentions of my heart.  I know I cannot change my experience but it isn’t healthy letting it all well up in my mind.  It takes the strength that I’ve found only after great difficulties to learn what it takes to find inner peace.  You must at great lengths challenge yourself to take your practice for peace one step further.  There’s no end to this quest we make a bit of momentum and keep it flowing and when we get knocked back we pick ourselves up and add more.  The strength non-violence gives me is such a difficult thing to completely grasp.  I feel like I’ve shrunk.  It takes viewing things through a different lens.  How would I survive without some of my more base instincts?  Did we not evolve due to our capabilities to dominate?  This, however does not prove that there isn’t more potential for us to discover through imagination.  The longer we spent acting in kindness the more responsive the sensation of joy becomes.  There’s more and more to see without the veil that shrouds the eyes of our society.  We have to look deeper than the instant gratification a quality action sequence provides.  Let dance and art act as the historian for the many a varied peoples of the world.  Let our story be in constant motion and with the freedom to express compassion and gratitude for the all the time we have to share with friends and family.  The light in my heart will not die it shines brightly with all the passion that my heart has developed.  I stand for the freedom to seek meaning based on the values that protect us from negative energy.  It’s a path that I choose though warily I explore the harm that our society perpetrates but I also find a great deal to live for beyond the short term goals of our governments, politics and media.  It’s our time to empower each other and find meaning based on the spirit of peace.  The stronger I become the further I can progress my dreams for the future.  Love and kindess,

Feeling glad

As I grow to feel more and more like my own person it makes me feel so proud.  The great and expanding horizons I can see are more and more within my reach.  I’ve got so much time to live and see despite all my missed opportunities.  The world really challenged me coming up it hasn’t been easy.  I got stronger as I learned to fight adversity and I became my own man.  Learning to come back from the brink of destruction took several years.  Yet it has taught me so much.  I wouldn’t be the person I am today if wasn’t such a struggle.  I’ve come to understand we all have limits before we alienate ourselves from the truth.  I couldn’t really see the changes I was going through and I still don’t have a full understanding.  There are some things that I know, for certain you can’t expect anything for free, not in this life.  To a certain extent, family and friends will support you but you’ve got to stay realistic.  Passion as a career is still an ideal I strive for but I had to come to find the path to that destination.  Society sort of gives us a blindfold if we don’t fight for our own perception of things.  It’s not easy to take it off but if you really make it into something important it will happen.  Just don’t throw anything away remember to keep grounded as I’m inclined to say.  Keep fit stay active in a discussion of the kernel of life you never know what you can learn.

Channeling

In every channel that has energy of mind,

there is imagination aiding the steady flow

that takes us further and every step made,

will be part of a knowledge that we are all connected to.

With practical attention to the details and also creativity

I stretch my mind like my body and apply

my lessons for growth in spirit.

I keep the bonds I’ve made and lighten

tensions that cause conflict.

The struggle is natural for people

my age, we are all preparing to take

care of the important things and

carry with us extra for the material (and often spiritual)

things that advance us in whatever we seek,

knowledge, technology, science, mathematics,

art, sport.  The information is all related to what

we learn.  We can only learn what is available

and for me little bits count, good intentions keep

the spirit alive.

My spirit loves the kind of attention meditating applies,

and with that in mind I often write to relieve stress.

My greatest achievement can only be what I am able

to unlock in the imagination and/or spirit.

My future is open to me and with intention,

I will continue to learn and grow

with my friends and family.

This is learning to love,

trusting, and opening a place

for change.  I believe.

Let’s face this together

There are a few different ways to look at the word face. It’s the most recognizable thing about a person a lot of the time. People are pretty tuned into the face. When I look at the word ‘face’ there are a few interesting ways of looking at it: expression, feelings, it’s our window to the outer world. Sometimes I wonder about the difficulties we have expressing sadness. What will it take to face the deeper side of humanity. Will I be an open window to all the pain and suffering? Chances are I’ll regard it all with as much maturity and positivity as I can. Yet still I wonder can we face this? Brave souls will always try and I’d like to say I’d give it a shot. I’ll never disregard the sensitivity of the face and the little things we can feel just from a smile. We tend to let little things get us down but when you mention some of the things that we simply wouldn’t face it I start to manifest. How do we temp that down and make light of a situation? There’s more to this matter than you and I of that I assure you. Where do we look when we’re presented with a situation that is clearly a near-sighted disaster like war? Ahead to brighter days. Be in the moment. Let your heart find it’s way. The sun will shine again. Great song writers have always had a knack for making me smile. A lot of the time they say it the best. Truthfully speaking, music can reach just about anyone. Even if your having a bad day, it can be done! There’s a song even when you can’t remember just try. We’ll face it with a song in our heart, together, tomorrow will come. We’ll see the brighter side of our expression. Don’t let life go by the wayside, even if it’s hard we have to press on. With our greatest passion and most heartfelt motivation mankind can do great things. We’re on this earth to share it with each other. Deep as the ocean and to the top of all the mountains we’re on this earth together. It’s our time to share with each other. It’s our time to let the nature of the mysteries unfold. The mystery that is your soul. We may not reach any conclusions about this either. Our expressions hold our strongest desires. In amongst the mix of all the confusion and rush that is a part of our lives there are hopes and dreams. I always try and make sure I’m not straying from the path truest to my heart. The heart is a powerful motivation for anyone. I’m sure there have been moments when you knew you wanted something. When you think of facing tomorrow, just remember we all have dreams. Life is such a gift we should all be in this one together.
