Bring Light Wherever you Go
Focus on the Destination
Just Be
Fear Experienced
It is not as easy to explore a feeling, unless it is being felt.
The pain and discomfort of fear, is one of the most taunting feelings.
Am I dying…
Will I live another year…
Have all of my past experiences caught up to me and caused a health issue that is incurable…
There are haunting thoughts that don’t make it easy to exist.
To want to live, but want to be gone, yet be fearful of a death that may or not be soon approaching…
Where is the peace, the bliss, the comfort…
A partner, maybe that would help.
Distractions, staying busy, nothing sounds right.
The only way to deal with it is to face it.
Look at it straight on, breathing in, breathing out, saying, “I will be okay. I am okay. It is okay. It will be alright. I am okay.”
There is nothing else to do.
Just wait.
Breathe.
Keep saying that I will be okay, I am okay, it is okay, it is going to be alright, it is alright.
Wait.
Experience it again.
Face it.
Breathe through it.
Don’t distract.
Don’t medicate.
Don’t numb.
Face it.
Live through it.
Sleep.
Wake up to another day.

Let Go of the Past
The Path Unknown
Rough Waters
Everything will be easy.
It will all go smoothly.
There will be no storms or rough waters.
Life will bring us so much goodness.
It will be everything we want it to be.
There will be no struggle.
There will be no pain.
Life is simple.
It is not complicated.
It is not complex.
Oh, life…
You had us fooled.
We had left home, at the ripe age of teenagers and had all the hopes and dreams of it all being so simple…
So easy…
Preoccupied with looks and friends and becoming wealthy, we thought that would be all we would need.
We though status was the answer.
We thought clothing and things would be our level up.
Life showed us that it is much more than that.
Life showed us the rough waters of being so surface focused, would surely make us drown.
What is on the outside does not make up for what is unfound on the inside.
The deepest sea has the coolest waters, and the more turbulent storms to face.
As with us, we have much depth, though not all of it was quite known or understood.
We thought we knew ourselves, within.
Our depths go much deeper than we knew before.
Now we see, a life with purpose for more than just material things…
A life of passion…
A life without greed or so many possessions…
This is the life we now seek.
We try to see the depths of others, while even just passing by.
A depth is beyond just a wave and a smile, for it goes deep, like the deepest of seas.
Love and care, and genuine concern.
Peace, kindness, a desire for more than just what one can take to the bank, this is what will keep us swimming, without tidal waves of the surface trying to pull us in.
When we leave this world, we hope to leave a mark.
Not one that can be seen or touched, but one that can be felt, like a feeling that calms the deepest sea.
A feeling that gives you a sense of understanding that all will be okay, even when no-one else is around.
Whether or not we have ever met, we hope it soars like a seagull though the winds, to each soul that is left on earth.
When all possessions are gone and the world is silent, we hope a feeling of peace is felt.
Maybe not from us, but maybe from the storms that pass and all that can be remembered is that feeling of goodness, that feeling of purpose.
Rough waters can always be beautiful to watch, as they roar and splash, they bring an electricity of their own.
Knowing each storm will pass, knowing we need nothing except for who we are, that is the peace that we will carry with us, if nothing else, that will be enough.
Hold this with you, carry it like a sack on a stick, for it is all you need to hold onto.
Life will bring storms.
Life will bring rough waters.
Even so, you will have purpose.
You will have peace.
Everything is there for you, it is all within.

You are the Light
They think they know what is best for you.
They want you to dim your light
Don’t they know that even clouds try to put out the sun’s bright light, but it still shines bright?
You are light.
You are strength.
With the strength is how you shine so bright.
You don’t have to try.
You don’t have to understand why.
You are what you are.
They see it.
They feel it.
They can’t seem to accept it.
You are light.
You shine so bright, and help others see their own light.
Keep on shining.
You are the reason why.
You are the light.

Don’t Give Up
There are so many things in life that can try to steer us away from our goals or aspriations. When you have a passion, or have your mind set on a specific path in your life, push through. Find a way to get there and don’t let road blocks move you away from your final destination.
We can easily fall down.
We can easily give up.
What takes more tenacity us to push through.
It takes strength to get back up.
You have it in you to get back up.
You have it in you to succeed.
Believe in yourself and find those who also believe in you and want to help you, by encouraging you to go after what you are aspiring to go after.
Don’t ever give up on yourself.
You determine your future.
You determine the outcome.
Don’t give up.

Introspection
Life is full of lessons.
We can tend to think that one simple solution will solve all of our problems.
Money.
We can think that inner world of ours will be more peaceful if we have more.
Maybe we can work more, take on more jobs, get new credit cards, pull out loans, so we can buy all the new things, so we will feel better.
Feeling better has nothing to do with accumulating more things.
This can bring an even deeper darkness and sense of feeling unfulfilled, as we continue to paddle away from shore, with less and less chance of being able to find the solid land once more.
Solid land is like our peace of mind.
Land grounds us.
Stability and peace come from feeling like you have a solid ground under your feet.
When you know what to expect, or can at least have some preparation for what is to come, that brings peace.
When we are constantly running after more ways to feed our ego, or fulfill this need to feel whole, without actually doing any inner work or introspection, we can find ourselves, spinning around on a boat without oars.
Money can be helpful, it is a very useful form of trade, but allowing it to hold so much power, as to expect it to solve all of your problems, is giving into false hope.
You will only feel fulfilled when you start to work on healing the inner being, that is YOU.
When you start to work on yourself, from the inside out, you are able to create a more solid ground to stand on.
This also gives you the ability to face each storm.
To be continued…
