Invite Love to Invite You

I don't tell love what to do
I let love teach me what it is

It is chances in life

I understand that what is meant to be is meant to be

In many cases I have to trust God a lot to live it

Not just say I know it

I can't change anything about me

But I can grow my soul

Let's heal

Let's start paying attention to what that even means

Your purpose stands before you

And your internal purpose must be understood to do that

To recognize caring and selflessness

Selflessness to life on Earth

You see, you can not live without understanding

And understandings that are coming to you are of truth and love

Accept them as you would accept any other gifts or learning's in life

There is not a soul that is not a soul

There is not a soul more important than another

We all have opinions as though there is not a chance to growth, wisdom, nor the opportunity to teach

We are all one, then we are all, and then we are one again

Our healing is not so hard

It starts with love and is never ending with love

Lacks of understandings bring to us conflicts, delusions, and acts that don't look like love

And then we hurt others with our unresolved pains

Yet it is love, even if that love was hurt along the way

Love is objective

And can only be what we do to it

Let love be

Let it show you who you are

Let it lead you to sharing that with another

Love is our key

Love is our stem

Love is our name when we hear it called by another

Love is the phone call that asks us a question

That brings to us a person to share a meal with, talk about anything with

Love is the food prepared for us

Love is the thoughts that are shared unwarranted, that we can trust and learn from

There isn't enough we can say about love

And there are no boundaries of what we can do with it

Love is love is love, and when it is pure, we float in it like a baby in all its warmth and innocence

Love is the candle, and love is the light

Love is the opening of your heart unto itself

When was the last time you saw your heart?

When love was there
Love's greatest strength is it's predictablity

And it's unpredictability of what it can propel us to do

Soulgineering

Imagine if there were no ego
No, me, me, me
No, I have to have this or that

Imagine if you didn't have to have a better house than your neighbor
A better car or job

Imagine if you didn't have to feel like you couldn't say what you are feeling
Shy about saying the truth
Distant when it comes to saying what you want

Imagine if you never had to lie
Cover anything up
Set something up, so no one would know it was you

Imagine if you didn't need attention to feel better about you
If you didn't need a compliment on your clothes to wear them again
Buy clothes you don't even need to look like something or someone

Imagine if you didn't have the pressures of ego
That nagging voice that pushes you in the wrong direction and then leaves you alone when you get lost
Imagine not having to feel like others didn't love you or want you to be present
That you felt love from others, with others, just because you already understand that you really do love who you are

Imagine if the encouragement of life had no restrictions and you could feel like you can do whatever you really dream you can
Imagine if you recognized Ego's weakness rather than it's strengths
Its strengths are only as strong as a false dream, a wrong road, a thought that hurts you in some way
Yet it looks like it has brains and guts, glory and stamina

Ego really only has nothing to offer
You or anyone else
Soul offers you answers, and it seems like the weaker of the two because it is silent

Yet a souls strength is its silence
A soul lets you come to it
Waits for you to learn why
Gives you a chance to catch your breath
Think about your actions
Know your intentions
Take in that someone else is involved, not just you

Your soul's language is silence and love
Caring and compassion
No races to a finish line without an answer at the end

Your soul is the loyal part of you
The part that knows better and tugs at you to do better
The part that reminds you to let go of what others do alone, and see your role in attracting it to you

Your soul is your partner and is a warrior
That battles your ego everyday
That pushes your consciousness to bother you when you forget your passion or that you have instincts

Your soul is the strength in the company you keep
The conversations you have
The love that you share


Your Ego loses you, sets you up for competition without any sport to play
Ignites you to feel as though the people you could love are against you
That the work you do is not enough
That the choices you make you should doubt
That the clothes you wear, the car you drive, that they are not enough
That you didn't take the right road, that you are not enough

As you find that your soul is your keeper and keeps those you love close
Keeps you close to who you are
Within compassion to yourself, to life, and to yourself again
Your soul is calm as you strive to be
And it reminds you it is already there
Without judgment
Without needing anything from you

It demands you to pay attention to Love
Since that is all it is
It commands your honor
And it teaches dignity
It pushes your buttons
With reward of heart
Your soul is your heart
And your hearts beating rests within your soul

It's Not A Secret

How is it that if we think something it comes true
That when we are in a great mood everything seems doable, easier, and anything else is so what?
That when we can see something, anything, we most likely can do it?

How is it that when you take care of yourself that you start to take care of other things too?
That when you clean your room, you also think next to clean your car, your kitchen, your dog?
That when you get one good grade, do a great report, that you immediately begin to think about the next test, the next thing you also want to do great?

How is it that you can say one minute you can't cook at all and then someone will teach you how to make a great grilled cheese sandwich and all of a sudden you want to be Julia Child?
That when you buy something that you normally wouldn't buy and you wear it, you feel carte blanche to act cooler, different, as though you have gained a new sense of freedom?
That when you take a walk and listen to good music that you have to stop yourself from dancing or singing out loud which sounds really different without the music and your head phones?

How is it that when you are Happy already, the same thing someone may have done or said the day before when you weren't happy, could have been a whole different situation?
That is when you can learn in your heart that your feelings, your attitude, your outlook, your love, work, time you put into yourself in small ways throughout the day, really does make a difference
It is not a Secret that negative begets negative and positive begets positive

It is not a secret that Truth is understanding your own role in your own life and accounting to yourself who you really are
It is not a secret that Love grows with the knowledge of yourself and compassion to yourself
It is not a secret that Purity's sense of itself acknowledges it's existence when you discover your intentions and act upon them

We simply need to remember Truth, Love and Purity and the weight it carries within us all
And remind each other when one of us finds frustrations and challenges and forgets
The Secret is, it is not a Secret

Since You've Been Gone

No Soul is Replaceable

A soul is itself no matter where it is

How many people think of a soul in a person

We think of a person and their actions

Yet as a soul

We think of them in a different light

Like what they are meant to do or be

What they think

Or act like or feel

When we lose someone we love

We think of everything they may have spoken to us and it magnifies in strength now that they are gone

We think of how they loved strawberry ice cream on a waffle cone

How they loved watching "I Love Lucy" reruns over and over again

We remember that they loved our blue sweater

And they cleaned their car once a week

We remember, and remember

We smile and cry

We want to see them and we can not replace them

We can only love them

And give their love the honor of living in us and thanking them for giving to us, them

For sharing themselves

As we share ourselves with our children

With our friends

With our families

With our coworkers

If we could think of those alive in the same appreciation as those that have passed?

Imagine how much appreciation that would be around

How little judgment is involved in our noticing the wonderful things they do

Rather than everything they do wrong

You see, we can actually see what we want to see

Both sides are always here, in front of us

Look at every person you see today in that way

Oh, they like their toast a little burnt with lots of butter

They always go for a walk at nine

They wave everytime they leave their driveways

And they always ask me how I am

No soul is replaceable

We each are a unique stamp that someone can be like

But never exactly

Nothing is exact

It is simply love

Nothing is perfect

It is just love

We are not bought, nor sold

We are simply love trying to know it

To live it and to be it

And when we recognize love and share it

Then we are souled

Britney Broke Her Paris and Lohan is Just Richie

We should no longer be allowed to report on Britney Spears
Paris Hilton

Nicole Richie

Lindsay Lohan

Even me who was a listener to their attentions and the woes

Once I would hear them speak

My interest is lost

It is weird to know so much about someone

That you listen to their every move

And I realized it isn't their every move I am listening to

I am listening to what is on the news, everywhere

Talk about no choices

You can't turn on the TV without one of them currently in rehab

Getting a ticket

Driving the wrong way

Or in jail for an accumulation of events

A nightclub they may have been too young to go to

And by 21 they appear to be much older than they are

We say it is money or fame

It is simply someone to talk about that is not us

That we can put attention to that is not us

That we can use as an example one way or the other and it is still weirder than us

These people made their way by showing up, dressing up and needing attention

And then complaining about the attention they asked for and don't know who they are without it

And we don't know if we love them or don't

Respect them or not

Care for them or not

We just know them

We hear everything about their every move

Imagine that enjoyment on your part

No privacy even when you seek it

You can't sleep in your car with your mouth open one day and wake up to the world in glitter the next

And we are amazed at the drama

So it replaces our own

WE need them in many ways

So that we don't need ourselves so much

Something to watch

Over and over again

Today I woke up hearing of restraining orders from mother to daughter or each others child

something in me changed this morning

I felt bad that we are fed this

Watching people live as they destroy themselves

And this is who we give credence to

When I hear them speak I am never impressed

And more interested in their love for the attention

It is not even beauty anymore

It is what is simply something to do

And I do not want to do it anymore

There is more to life than living in the world of appearances and furor

It seems like a joke that we do this, however I am sure we find greater things to hear if those things were allowed time on media

We have a need for release

It is medication

and Media

Drugs and Alcohol

That is the crazy thing

We all escape and their escapism is that is most interesting to us

For then we don't have to fess up to our own

The More We See, The Less We Saw

It's funny how we didn't know what color we are until someone told us

It's funny how we don't know what religion we are until someone teaches us

It's even funnier how we are judged for something we come with and something we are taught, mostly before we had the choice to choose

I amaze at how we take those two things and turn them into reasons as to why:

Why that person doesn't deserve this or that

Why that person isn't worth talking to, sharing with, or getting to know

working with or understanding

I amaze at why we think so:

We don't know

It is fear of change, of life, of what could be different

It is wanting to be part of a group that is better than, deserves more, gets more public accommodations

It is fear of not being accepted and going along with the us, not them bunch

If none of us could see we would only be voices and brains

Thoughts and intellect

Work and sharing

No boundaries

Yet because we can see, we let out eyes take on the information that comes to all of us

And skew it

And use that extra bit of information to take away from us

To divide us

And distract us from paying attention to what really needs us

Like our resources

Our accommodations in life, like hospitals, schools, library's, foods, medicines and greater care of our Earth

Instead, because we can see, we have taken our energy's into sidetracks that only matter to ego

We let ego rule

And now we are basically a fear based society

Who is pressured in time, money and family

All that because we have eyes

All because we can see

One Minute Society

How much worse does it have to get before we say STOP I just want to hear something nice to hear

How much take your clothes off music do we have to listen to, to remember a simple lyric about anything else

Don't sit to listen to stories of how everything is bad

Don't go to movies where you leave disturbed or had to watch many get killed to be excited about the movie

Don't go to events or share your time where it takes away from you, your family, your friends

Don't eat foods that will make you wish you didn't the rest of the day

Stop doing the stuff that we know doesn't make us feel better

Stop saying the things that you know you are saying because you are hurt and you are passing it along by hurting others with it

Stop paying to do the things that make the ills of souls more worth showing us then the best of us

We have come to pay attention to people messing up, talking about them, giving attention because we are just glad it is not us

We are better than that

Stop yourself when you find yourself ready to speak on something that you wouldn't want to speak about you

Stop yourself when you are upset at someone and you want them to know it rather than understand their point

Stop yourself when you say no to someone because you didn't want to take the time to say yes

And on the other hand, don't say yes to something that you don't want to do because you can't say no

We are putting a lot of pressures on ourselves that really don't need to be

WE are so scared to say the truth that we will say anything but the truth at times to make it go away

WE are so scared to say truth, just because we will feel like someone will then know what we want and we can't admit what we want even to ourselves let alone another person

If we give less attention to things we don't want to be and take some weird pleasure in seeing others do

And do as we want to be and not allow our energy to fill it's time with hardships

You will find that life has many things that are so much more pleasurable and less initially enticing

That life is forever for each of us, not a quick picture, gift or meal

We are us for the whole time we are here

We can fill it with a momentary "wow" that was cool, great, and then we forget it looking for something more

And the something mores live with us forever and nourishes us in our moments of quiet and calm

They excite the times we speak with others sharing our time, our meals, our interests and our music

We have to say "when" when it comes to what we accept

Whether it is the lowest grade fast food we take in our bodies

Or the lowest grade human behavior we begin to accept by allowing it space and time

Our respect for ourselves and then for others can only grow

As we learn to use different words to express ourselves

And different foods to nourish ourselves

And different stories to let into ourselves

We begin to see and feel hope

Carry and want love

For it's truth, not what we want from it

The One minute society is becoming old news, the has been of many generations

The One minute society is history, just like smoking a cigarette will make people wonder in 50 years how and why we would do such a thing

We have choices

And we have more choices

And out of all the choices we can make

We have to ask ourselves why we are too lazy to do the right things

Why our company and money makers bring out the things for money that end up being less for all of us

Our choices could only tell us who we are

And now our choices have to give us more

Who we want to be, now and tomorrow

Tomorrow really is today, stop tricking yourself into thinking then and not now

Promise you will listen to your heart and act on it's intentions

It is who you are...Stop saying, I don't know who I am

You do....we all do....we simply have to give it some airtime!

Don't Stop Believing

Life is so much easier when your heart knows you are doing right by it

That you feel good no matter what, when you finish anything you started

That when you smile at people they have no power over you

That when they smile back, you bond in a quiet yet strong way

Life around you grows differently when you tell the truth and walk on

Lying never made anyone a better person

When you are happy, everything is so much more exciting

And everything that you are excited about finds a way of happening

Did you ever notice...

That when you plan something it actually happens

That every problem only has as much strength as you give it

That you attract people to you that are where you are at emotionally

That when you know what you are looking for, you find it

Life is really as simple as that

Our trust and knowledge's of ourselves are all that can grow us or take away from us

We could always trust trust a little more

And watch a lot more come our way

Seeing is believing

Feeling is our truth telling us we are on the right track

Being challenged reminds us we get to feel and do something about our feelings

Creation is just you creating

Whatever you believe in enough to learn, do and growth into it

We all know that when we are sure about anything

There is no stopping us

Don't let your beliefs go

Don't compromise your heart

Don't let your mind take you to the "I can't" place so regularly

There really is another way

And it is not just for other people

Everything really belongs to you and is already yours

Did you ever notice

When you can see something

Or you finally "get it"

No one can tell you different

Don't accept that from yourself either

Don't let yourself tell you that anything is not for you

If that anything is something you really do want and don't know how to get to

Things don't just happen

Life really is so much easier when you do right by your heart
Nothing is as strong as your intent, no matter what the outcome

Trying anything is telling yourself you are worth the fight, the love, the participation of life itself

Perfection is Love

Remind each other

You need not be perfect

That we are perfect

When our intent is clair

When the air is clean

WE can move along

When there is mud we will get stuck in it

Remind each other that it is not magic

It is truth

It is magical when we live in our own lives

Teach each other in song, in love, in dance

That life is for living

Not for avoidance

It is true

We are not here alone

So we are not meant to know everything

We are meant to share what we know

And everything has a chance to be learned

We are not perfect

Perfection is love

We are not perfect

Why would we be here?

We are here to live our lives

To reach peace and understanding of ourselves

For perfection is love and love personifies itself in everything we do

And when love is present, everything feels perfect doesn't it?

So remind ourselves, and each other

That we are what is "perfect", we are love

And we are here to feel and to grow

Remind ourselves, and each other

That life is something we come to know

None of us come "ready to live"

We come "ready to learn"

And the learning creates the living

And the living teaches us love

And love is the perfection of all of us
