poetry of the day

Some Rumi worth ruminating over…

Who makes these changes?
I shoot an arrow right.
It lands left.
I ride after a deer and find myself
chased by a hog.
I plot to get what I want
and end up in prison.
I dig pits to trap others
and fall in.

I should be suspicious
of what I want.

- Rumi Mathnawi
from The Essential Rumi, version by Coleman Barks

speaking of 5-year plans…

I move
in faith
my guidance is taking me on the highest plan possible
for this lifetime
(and henceforth)

enjoy it

evanescent everything
(sand sculptures)
as all atoms are
scattered someday

Sand Snail

perspective is almost everything

Toronto alive with awareness is a new realm!

Foxy Queen Street West, Toronto

keeping the promises to ours-Elves

my flow shifted the day
I changed my focus from being all about my local “tribe” to wanting to serve the world in general
new angles
new angels
so
here I am Now
back in the big city
feeling energized by it all
each moment a mission
yet
I know I’ll see
the crystal mountain
again

Seagull from a BC Ferry

roadside reassurance

meditating on the bus
abiding within
while rolling along towards a new life
I briefly open my eyes
and see
the big city digital billboard say,
“best do-over ever!”

do I know you?

sometimes it feels
as if
we have been army buddies

heart breaking (open)

we are all drawn to each other
by mysterious forces
in this tribe

we were all born
to help Earth ascend
we feel it
we know it

media kidz!
how we love each other

sexy, romantic characters
sometimes we’re drawn to connect deeply
(heart and flesh)
then not

it’s the biological imperative

feel its vicissitudes
(be present in your own drama)

it’s the fastest way to evolve
after all

yet
let it come and go
enjoy it
cry about it
with passion

holistically unattached to how it appears
(love is all-ways here)

how-ever
re-member
the work must go on

poetry about job hunting

preparing for a meeting tomorrow which may bring compelling career developments

abiding in faith the right job will always appear in divine timing

though I prepare still

as making an effort is required

magnatudinous

bold moves
to a
bigger realm
revealing potentialities
uncovering sensitivities
cultivating radical acceptance
& loving the heart of it

Queen & Bold

idea: travel show with compelling couple?

next time I do this drive
I will be with you
we will bring better cameras
& linger in backroads hamlets
as the flow goes
along the way
how-ever
this time
I shall hurry home
(enjoying the view)

symbolic sign

a multidimensional matrix of crossroads

when thoughts of worry about which way to turn appear
taking a deep breath
relaxing about the unfathomable array of possibilities
relaxing about the feelings surrounding clarivoyance of probabilities
choosing this:
I Love it ALL as a singularity (and as self)
Now

obvious now

it’s obvious

changes are happening

let go of how you “wanted” it to happen & relax

trust that you’re being delivered to where you need to go

let go of all goals except the most general

happiness
abundance
peace

whatever floats your boat

relax about the specifics

who are you to know what you’ll enjoy most?

and anyway

real Joy beyond happy/sad is already available 24/7

all:ways superimposed on top of every arising

NOW

it might take awhile to feel it fully

as the body takes awhile to adjust to the new frequencies!

so until then

cry if you want to

namaste y’all

today I rejoice
as
it has become easy to Love everyone Now
no matter how it feels

I remember who I am!

grant me the wisdom
and self-control
to act accordingly

smiling as if the World depended on it

important notice from the Galactic Federation
as humans the most important thing we can do to help “save the Earth” is:

EMANATE GOOD VIBES

do whatever is necessary for you to get there
fun is recommended
stay positive
DANCE
the rest is taken care of
your energy is needed to fuel the fires of change
our bioelectric energy is Earth’s energy
we ARE Gaia

there are people out there who get this Now
you will find them and work/live/love together

negativity is negativity no matter the story and is to be phased out ASAP

you will need to learn new ways to behave and speak (words are key)

start Now and watch your reality shift

psychic surgery

raw and real
stings sometimes
(and keeps some of us compelled to come back)
be
cause
the truth is:
all is Love!

an allliteration

ancient angels
alien ambassadors
and aspiring adepts

allies amassing!

altered anatomies
adroit attitudes
and accelerating agility

advantageous abilities!

adoring adventure
always adapting
and activating ascension

an amazing age!

resonation lessons

in prayer I asked
how do I ground out these intense feelings coming at me from all around?
the answer came through
(as applied alliteration)

ENGAGE them fully in the heart
ENERGIZE them into Love
EMANATE them outward everywhere

hints of the joy to come through weird storms

the old way hurts
the transition is worse
but if we endure
we find the cure
and then for sure
we become more pure

dark & light

note to self:
notice the ego’s tendency to convince the mind that you’re unworthy of love
by marking the few negative thoughts & comments of the Other as “proof” that they’re against you
letting these inevitable “lapses” into moments of darkness and doubt
somehow negate all the loving words and deeds as dishonest

and also notice
how these moments happen less frequently
when you remember
how worthy of love
YOU ARE

chin up beautiful ones

would you choose
fast ascension
with extra intensity
painful and pleasurable

or

relaxed enlightenment
no pain no strain
always in perfect happy grace ?

trick question!
it’s not your choice
it’s the former
because in this crucial crux in history
we all need to ramp up amp up
it’s fastrack time

how-ever
re-member
it’s always worth the effort
and everything turns out better
than anyone can possibly imagine

complaining is obsolete

in meditation
all the stories fall away
unidentifying with the voices
and though at the cosmic level
“I am not the person”
mymy I love her so

my new mantra is “maybe”

today
all stories about what’s to be
& my so-called destiny
addictive fixations of fantasy

were ripped away
ouch ouch ouch
such a painful joyful way to find relief

and though it’s sometimes scary
I LOVE that it’s unknown, undefined

how exciting
how sublime

go shift Sherlock

focusing on living in the Now
and being present

even though
there’s a temptation to linger in daydreams of the imminent future
& the delicious improvements to come
as in, “it’s all going to work out” or “I just have to get through this phase”

especially as
Now is sometimes really uncomfortable

however
being fully here for this process
is the Way

trust me

that which you fear she will not overcome
feeds on your fear
& makes her climb Home steeper than it needs to be

emotions unshackled

Notes to self:

whatever stories you’ve made up about
“what is going on”
are largely delusional
and only valid from your particular (peculiar) perspective

however
the buzz you feel around certain stories
is real
i.e. “there’s some kind of energetic”

sit with the energy
embrace it
embody it

and most importantly
stop letting the stories
tempt you into wasting your mental powers
figuring it all out

drama happens
instead of reacting to drama
(which feeds drama)

hold everyone in your heart
whenever they come into mind or view

less processing
less contempt
more forgiveness
more compassion
more Love

being honest about even the most socially unpopular feelings

we’ll wheel
around what we feel
until we heal
here’s the deal:
be real
(ideal?)

quote seen in sidewalk chalk

Self-love is revolution.

things to phase out

complaining
jealousy
and
worry
all have the opposite effects
that you’re aiming for

ego = needing to be other than

when you feel an emotion
towards “another”
remember
there’s no one here
except (accept!) yourself
