Even a Broken Clock is Right Twice a Day

The truth of a lie
is the lie of a truth
You can not see something until you know what it is
When we believe something that is not truth it is because we need to at that time
And when we find the lie in what we believe to be truth
Then we know truth

Sounds like a tongue twister however it is only twisted truth
Our jobs, our hearts work, our brains truth is to untwist the twisted
And speak the truth to ourselves so that we could go on

To tell ourselves that someone doesn't like us is our perception
Is it on a day we don't like ourselves
To tell ourselves we can't get this job or that car or live in that house
Is it that we do not believe we deserve to have what we love
To tell ourselves that nothing good happens to us
Is it that we don't want it to and we got use to living in the "nothing for me" mode?
The "there is nothing I can do about it" mode?

And then we turn every situation into why this or that could not happen
And we trap another soul into listening to us

What if we turned our thoughts into telling ourselves, I am doing this on purpose
I don't want myself to succeed, but why?
If I succeed then will I be accountable to live up to other goals and things I have wanted
Am I scared to fail at what I was wishing for, so I keep it away by saying I have tried, but.....

I found myself saying this many times in these past weeks,
Even a broken clock is right twice a day
Take a chance on yourself
Start with the little things first
And then build it, one thought at a time
Take what is right and do it
And take what you fear and try it
No one needs to know
Just you and your efforts
And let your efforts teach you
And have patience to teach yourself
And then share it with another
And let yourself explain it
And then you will have trust
Trust in your abilities
And as your abilities grow
You will be capable
And No will be answered with Why not?
Why not you!
Your love is your strongest emotion
Let it live in it's stride, don't accept your own lie's
The one's you have gotten used to and forgot they are lie's
They become truths that are not truth
And you know better than that
Take your lies that became truth
And live in the truth of what you lay before you
No matter what, you will never shortchange yourself in truth

Peek and Peak

We are the avenue, the path, the bridge to use the knowledge that we already have
People don't so much need answers, they need means
Means of the mind to capture a method to develop our knowledge
Knowledge we already have

That is why we know things and we can not apply them to our lives
So we think we need a new book, tape, teacher
Really we are just looking for a way to get our knowledge and our actions to work together
To produce for us
To teach us we even have a way to our knowledge
It is an unleashing that never ends once a person can see themselves taking on their knowledge
Like anything we do, once we do it once, we have a path to do it twice
The old "I don't know or have time" doesn't work anymore

We get to live a lifetime building knowledge and finding a way to apply it
We already know and have heard a lifetime of answers
And we keep asking questions, trying to find a way to use our answers
Action is motivation
Once you start anything, your brain carries you the rest of the way

Trust your capabilities and your capabilities will in turn trust you
It is in your hands, your soul, your desires
To turn anything into something
Don't ask what should I do here or there,
Simply ask yourself
What would love do?

The Guessing Game of Relationships

What is it about relationships that keeps us guessing?
Is it that we want them too bad?
Is it that we are not sure what to do or say?
How could we be so sure in other area's of our lives and then not in a relationship?

It stems from us simply not being sure about being loved
We are not sure how it looks or feel like we can relax in it
We feel like it takes time for us to be "ourselves" rather than just being ourselves
It is funny how we judge ourselves before anyone has a chance to judge us

We know what it is like when we meet someone
And they are relaxed and because of that, we are attracted to them
They don't have to "act" relaxed, they just are
You don't even care what they look like or what they are wearing
You are attracted to their comfort with themselves that you will love initially and grow to love more along the way

We think it is what we wear that day or circumstances, when we say, this happened and I was just...meaning you were caught off guard just being yourself

Our instincts attract us to each other when we are real
When we are not relaxed within ourselves, we try to control the outside of us
With our clothes,
Clever comments
Moments of thinking we have won something
We don't win anything for long if we are not true to our lives and live in the truth of us

I know there is so much to be said for physical appearance
At least initially
And for a great car, or home
At least until you own it
Or a wonderful job,
As long as you love it
However we tend to forget those things when we are not feeling great
And use those things when we feel on top of our game

Yet you are not a game
You are a person
Whose heart is attractable and loving
And could stand on it's own if you let it
And could bring to you all that you want, if you let it

We can not control with our things what to bring to us from others
We can simply be us and attract others who like the us of us
And we can breath in the moments that teach us it is OK to think cleanly
And greater even to live in the life with the lights on
And to feel accepted no matter what

The only time we are not accepted is when we do not accept ourselves
Compassion for yourself is the foundation of love of you
And the love of you is the love that brings others to you
Everyone loves to feel love, and when you feel it, you can see it too!

Father's Days

Daddy doesn't know that I notice everything he does
His ways become mine
His thoughts are my first

His heart is open to me
Even when it closes the door to everything else
He reminds me that he cares about me
Even when he is not sure how to care for himself

Daddy doesn't know that I love him without question
We don't tell Dad's as much
It isn't what people do

Dad I love you
I love when you barbecue
I love when you give me a ride
Even when I act like you have to

I miss the moments when I really wanted to listen to you
And I thought you just didn't want me to do something, I can't remember now what it was
I thank you for the moments you took the time
To just let me know how things go
So that I would know
No credits, no accolades
Just love and caring

Thank you Dad, you are more than a man who takes care of his family
You taught me to take care of mine
I now know to keep talking
That kids are listening all the time

The foresight of knowing
What is yet to come
Is the love of a Dad
That is second to none

Love and Get It

Being a couple doesn't mean you have to know everything
Agree on everything
Be the same
And never feel like you can't speak otherwise

Being a couple is a true lesson of love
It is knowing the other person is their best with you, whatever it is
Doesn't know where to begin when they are upset except with the fear that you do not care enough
Trust that the reason for your existence together is to learn to negotiate, to compromise
To enjoy and to trial
To learn the truth of you in a safe place
And to bring your best intentions forward and find out the best of intentions asks for nothing
Other than the truth of you
And in turn teaches that truth to your partner
Your children
And the rest of those who are involved
Having a partner is not just having a man or a woman
It is having a human who wants to succeed in life
Who wants to show themselves and you that hope will always be alive
And trust will always want to grow
And love is endless no matter what you do

When there is love it builds a civilization around it
It builds family and attracts those who want to believe
Who want to believe that life works and is thriving
That anyone can go to the safe place that is built and add their house and share their love
And that is called Community
The children have the foundation that love is possible
The home cooks the meals that build the foundation of their lives

It all boils down to love
Any route you take
It all reminds us that people are important
Any way you look at it
Every soul, every partner, every child, every neighbor, every friend and acquaintance
Boils down to Love
Without love we are lost
And with it we are boundless, endless, and unstoppable
Love is not a glue
Love is freedom

Stand and Deliver

Notice that you speak
And take accounting for what you speak
Notice that you do
And take accounting for what you do
Notice that you work
And take accounting for your work
Notice that you thrive
Take accounting....
Your soul is the you you present to the world
The world does not shape you
It is your shaping that presents itself to the world

Do not let the traps of missions take you on
Stand in your strength
And give your soul a chance to have it's say
Stand in your truth
And let the truth lead you

You need not speak super stories that carry little truths
Nor do you need to pronounce your specialness, important or perceived self worth
All you have to do is to be truth, love and purity, without the lacks of pretending to be
And you will add to the energy of truth love and purity of the world in which you shape.

Charity's Soulstice

Charity is known for it's largeness
organizations reaching out to as many people as can be reached, and helped
Charity has become the new focus
The hope of us all
Where the ones who have time and means come together
And those who have service have an outlet
And those who need help have a place
And those who want to help have a place

And then there is the charity of our souls
They are the us's that have some angers
That no one is around
And then when we need it
We can see it
When someone smiles at us
We feel loved
And when someone opens our door we feel noticed
And when someone says a simple hello
We can be turned around in a moment

The charity of us
Is knowing we can live together
And charity is proof of that
And Love can be felt in it
And reasonings aside, when we know there is a cushion, we most of the time don't even need it
It is just knowing it is there
And we are settled enough to succeed

When someone can say
A simple "you can do it"
you can
When your mind can see it
You have a path
And when you have taken the first step you stop counting steps

The first acts of charity are from us to ourselves
And then it gives to us knowledge to know what it could possibly mean
to have a cushion
And that cushion is for the success of all your idea's and thoughts
Actions and accomplishments
The greatest charity of us is to know we are the cushion
The cushions of charity give to us the springboards of life
And life can only be more interesting as we are supported by ourselves
And cheered onto the understandings of it's propellations of all of us
Giving back is the greatest act of charity
Learning to receive is the greatest way of knowing
That there has never been giving back alone
Everything we do is multifaceted and all souls win when there are thoughts of all of us succeeding
Charity is a way of thought, a mind set that is in all of us
You can do it, you have done it, and then you can do it for another

The torches are no longer for family alone
Family understands it needs the block
And the block understands it needs the community
And the community understands it needs the state
And then we get it that we matter
We see that what we do touches
And charity starts in the heart long before it becomes an action
Action is just the reminder we can take on our ideas and our ideas are not just for us
It will surprise you
that you can
And it will carry many if you do

Life's Nectar

Watch your steps
Walk in peace
Listen to the heights of your mind
And react with time in your thoughts

In your moments of relaxation
take on the walking of your body
The walking of your body is the peace of your mind
Without the peace of your mind, you could not come about walking

It is an energy in itself
to breed self maintenance
and compassion's to take you to the roads of understanding love

Self love's appearance has been manipulated by the human mind
for it is giving the human mind the ego's version of self love
which is to out do anything from yourself, to all souls that you encounter

So simple is the truth
And so complicated is the mind when it wants to realign truths to convince itself of it's truth
The truth of truth settles and all the rest of it leaves us with questions

Truth in self love is to understand the value of love itself
For once a soul can feel love of itself it can offer it to others

You can not offer a meal of meat and potatoes
if you do not have meat or potato's in your possession

Fear of love does not have a place in eternity
Fear is the driver of a car with no engine
You simply can not drive the car

There is nothing to lose in love unabated
Freedom to speak from your heart so you could feel and be felt
Love enough to say, yes, that happened and I have learned
Compassion enough to tell yourself, I will do right by you
It calms the heart to know you are present
That you are there for you
Then you can share you, have meat and potatoes for dinner, and recognize love as it finds it's way to you
