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
