It's never too late to see what you did was wrong and to change. To have the humility to admit your mistake and to open your eyes to a new perspective takes courage. To tear down common beliefs to see the truth is strength. I will always be spiritually aware, as life is spiritual warfare. There's the physical, the mental or emotional and then there's the spiritual element of life which is the most powerful, and once that is lost, all is lost. My faith grows stronger every day, and in turn physically and emotionally I'm always heading in the right direction. Life has its ways to pull you down, pull you this way and that, but as long as you remain firmly on the right path happiness, reward and assurance are sure to follow! It all takes effort.. like Saint George's response to the child who prayed to him for help, "You must also move your foot too" meaning prayer and effort must work together. The trials of life take effort and learning to overcome, this is an ongoing battle, that with strong faith is always won!
The Field
There once was a forgotten muddy field,
In it a home simple and modest,
Who lived there nobody knew,
They didn't care, they didn't have a clue,
Apart from a boy with his dad,
He saw beauty in the field and this made him glad,
No one else could see,
There was something in the air, something he could tell,
Something he could hear, something he could smell,
He had a feeling, a sense, that something mattered, something was strong,
Something was sublime,
Something was mysterious,
Something that in time would shine!
Then one day a Poppy seed fell into the field,
Roots grew and the seedling sprouted,
A beautiful flower soon grew.
In the bright Spring sun the Poppy dazzled with delight,
And people stopped to marvel as it shone in the light..
Soon thousands of Poppies filled the field,
And Dandelions, Daisies, Tulips and Daffodils, Sunflowers and all number of marvelous herbs, Rosemary, Sage, Thyme, Parsley and Coriander and many more plants and flowers...
The fertile field drew people from near and far,
People rode by bicycle, on foot and by car,
The home remained humble and wise,
As the home was beautiful and that's where it lies,
The crux of the story...
It doesn't matter where you are,
A beautiful soul is like a shining star,
The boy with his dad are now friends with the people at the home,
They had a special connection that was deep within,
The beautiful field would forever be there,
It's the heart that matters, the courage and the care,
To see beyond and to see into the soul,
To make a true friend,
and to be there with them to the very very end.
The higher echelons
If the focus of the higher echelons of society is to break the heart physically, societally and spiritually of the so called little people in the world, I will strengthen and soften my heart in everyway to deal with this issue! These days of stress and turmoil, apocalyptic days, need certain coping mechanisms. The breastplate of forgiveness, the shield of peace, and the sword of humility, the helmet of hope and full body armour of love.
In these days of high technology, we need simple things, like real lasting friendship, community, open-heartedness, charity, mercy for one other, understanding and respect. Above all love. Love for people, creatures, plants, love for good times, happiness and trust. Love for innocence and cherished memories. When you love simplicity and simple things, you become more grateful, and this in turn increases your love. Let's begin now.
Thoughts about life
How fickle life is and tiring, one day you are inseparable friends, the next day you are hated. One day you are held in high esteem, the next day disregarded. Hatred and fighting, conflict and animosity.
Now, hold high the chalice of love,
The cup that holds all mysterious things high,
Peace, hope and life itself!
Surrender yourself to this chalice!
Surrender your shattered will to the will of love,
Give yourself up,
embrace love,
It's not about you anymore,
Love is the cure,
True love.
When you're helpless, exhausted and depressed, Gods love takes over, the cure for all disease and suffering.
God's love took over,
In my humbled wretched state, everything bad was killed.
I could only rise,
Where I fell upon the cold floor,
In my blindness I gained sight,
Withered and decrepit, I was made strong.
Resurrect your life,
Surrender your spirit to the greatest spirit,
The spirit of whence you came into the world,
The spirit that fathomed you and moulded your very being,
Trust in true loves power.
Freedom flower
I was feeling pain, I was feeling rage, but then I turned my head and turned the page,
Overflowing with a pure spring in your step,
Bring a lightness in mind and sing,
A song of rejoicing,
A song of pleasure,
Be as light,
As light as a feather!
Bring cures into life,
See good in all good things,
Lift up and be the freedom flower,
Fore art and nature are a natural power,
Freedom of expression,
Power of life,
Beauty of the flower,
Ease and not strife.
Beauty is everywhere,
Bringing sunshine into sadness,
There is always hope even in badness,
Feel this energy and be a warrior of sunshine,
With freedom and light power combine!
There's something special in every thing,
That's why a glimmer turns into an eternal spring,
Spring forth and be positive,
Back off negative vibes,
Melt into life and be as one,
Shoot petals on people with the freedom gun!
Then you know,
You've won!
Love Always
Disrespect me with bitterness and say it's my fault? The stars align in my favour!
Disrespect me with dark eyes and say I'm to blame? The planet's glow and this battle they savour!
Go and light your gas elsewhere! The Sun is a burning ball of gas, far brighter than this small game!
My character is good, strong and humble! God knows and he sees you in the frame!
You won't make me tumble or fumble my words,
go ahead with your campaign of smear,
You won't bring me fear,
Just because your character is rotten, you won't carve your symbol into my skin,
My skin is thick not thin!
You may think you are the centre of the universe and you think you can play me like a puppet? But, your miniscule heart and internal insignificance are controlling you, the devil has YOU by the strings!
In the blackest hole appears the brightest light,
Darkness versus Light?
Light overcomes every darkness, heals every wound,
Cleanses every spiritual frailty.
I defy your wicked ways and your ego trip,
For the love I have is too strong,
Love surrounds my body and encapsulates my mind,
My heart and my soul are ready for any battle,
As I fight evil with love,
Love is the truth,
Lies never win,
You think your always buoyant, but this time you'll sink not swim,
As my prayers are to your maker aswell as mine,
I will forgive you in time,
By then your rotten edifice will be underground,
Nothing profound,
That's life,
That's truth.
Αs God places his hand on my head and blesses me himself,
I'm protected from evil.
My dear, if wicked ways won,
This universe would not exist,
As creation is love,
Love's conquest is always in our midst.
Love Always!!!
The Cave
I once was inside a cave,
Dark and shadowy,
All that could be seen was the distant light from outside,
My reality was darkness,
My reality was a lie.
I made a fire to warm my hands and to eat,
The light was closer,
But was all in my mind,
My thoughts playing trickery,
The light burnt me and soon burnt out.
I stumbled closer to the outside,
I could see the light outside from inside,
I realised it's true existence,
I was still in the dark, but could see the light,
My heart longed for the light of the light.
Then one day,
I forced myself out of the cave,
Step by step,
By the power of my will,
Embracing the light,
I could see it and feel it,
It's brightness, its warmth,
The light was true life,
I was in darkness no more,
I know the truth!
I know reality and actuality!
I am now transformed and transfigured into a higher way of seeing and being!
