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

Even a Broken Clock is Right Twice a Day

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?

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

Ego's Friendly Fire
We all hear about the bombings of Iraq, of Palestine
And we think to ourselves, it's OK because they are terrorists
We all can see their devastation and we say, it is OK, they kill people for their religion
We all see the mothers cry and we think they are different mothers
The brothers in search of survival
The sisters in search of a future
The grandparents unable to protect
And the parents unable to make a living
Education is scarce and interrupted
And it is all OK because they are Arabs
Because they are Muslims
Because they do not deserve what everyone else in the world deserves
Not even protection
Not even foods
Not even entertainment
Or shopping for clothes
Not even ovens
Not even refrigerators
Not even water in some of their regions
They should be lucky we call them people
For in our hearts we equate them to animals
Yet we do not dare to speak it in words
Instead we take it on in actions
And bombings
The Palestinians were simply living on the wrong land
That is the foundation of that issue altogether
What they have become as a result of that, is uneducated, underfed, waterless, humans
The Iraqis happen to live on an oil rich land
This is the foundation of that issue altogether
We all know if Iraq traded kumquats
They would still have their country
Uninterrupted by others greed and motivations
Afghanistan is added in to take on the footprint of doing so
Iran is a threat because they may advance in knowledge's
Yet other countries do so unabated
And we all stand by and take away their humanness
Simply so we can sleep at night believing they deserve it
We starve ourselves as we starve others
We hurt ourselves as we hurt others
We pretend that is not truth either
The real truth is that you can attract more bee's with honey than with vinegar
We simply choose the vinegar
We simply want to believe we are better than others
We want to use others for our own perceived joy
The world watches and we as people reach out to the poor
And our leaders reach out for money
The monies it takes to kill others and control them
Could repair our worlds ecology, economy, and love
And WE got to this place that speaks we do not want that
We want love on our terms, not God's
We want as much money as we can get our hands on and leave others to watch in awe
We let ego run our world
Greed motivate our decisions
And Stature giving us the power to do so
And we are finding power in our hands is not a good thing
We steal with it, we use for it, and we fear losing it
To believe there is anything good to come out of self motivation
Is the perception that speaks I am greater than you
I am better than you
Because I am able to control you with who I am
It is a reflection of not caring, being unkind and losing sight along a path that dead ends
Eternal paths bring growth to souls
And we have made decisions that it is only "some souls"
As God Almighty speaks, we are one: however, one means some in our world
We say we believe in God, in forgiveness, in truth and in trust
Yet we have not understood the meanings of love yet
Love is love is love
To think it is a game of elimination is to eliminate all of us in one way or another

The Lie and The Truth
Lie: Hello Truth, tell me about yourself I am The Lie I am the opposite of you Truth: I am here all the time And sometimes no one can see me I stand out in a crowd and people walk around me I am present at every meeting And no one talks about me I am in every conversation Without mention at times I feel unloved and do not get much attention at all To tell you the truth, at times I am jealous of you lie People get excited when they talk about you, at least for a moment Lie: Yes, but it makes them feel bad and then they don't like me so much Truth: But at least you get honorable mention in political events Lie: Yes, but then they write about me in the papers the next day and they question me Truth: Oh...And then what? Lie: Then the person who is found out gets in trouble And then they say they want nothing to do with me They say they hate me because I make them hate themselves Truth: Hate? Lie: Yes, I have to use that word I hear it all the time Truth: Well, I guess not being talked about or mentioned isn't so bad At least when they find out about me it solves things Lie: Yes, and you get to stay who you are, Truth When they find out about me, they deny they ever knew me They try to make up stories and they throw me to the wind Some die by me, but they are fewer and fewer since they claim their heads feel better without me Truth: Oh...I have nothing left to say...The truth is, you can't change me I am what I am, and I never really change All I wanted was some recognition Now I feel like I don't need it so much I am already happy I guess I just wanted to be remembered Lie: Oh, Truth, they will remember you, They have to Otherwise no one would sleep or enjoy their meals No one would have friendships or partners of any kind A child wouldn't have anyone to talk to without you Truth you serve a purpose When people find out about you, they can't live without you Being a lie is just a lie I am not really here I just think I am I am not real and nothing about me is You are stronger than me You last longer than me Thank you truth, now I can rest I will try not to let others use me so much I think it is your turn now so we can undo the troubles that I did I think I can change my ways I want to be like you I love you truth

How Could You?
How could we know something and not do it if we think we want to
Like say something we would love to speak and we do not
Eat what is better for us than other things
Do the work we want to do rather than carry the burden of 'I'll do it later"

Close Your Eyes and See
There is no right time, there is only a ripe time
Hope is when you see action
Hype is when there is only talk
Start what you think of
There is no way to start anything without starting
We start so we can get what we want at the finish line
There is no finish line
Everything that ends, starts something else
We think in goals and when we achieve them
At times we don't know what else to do
Goals are simply steps to other steps
Interests are what you love to do
Goals are measurements of success
Goals are the avenues to take you there
Interests are the spark
And when the spark is lit
You no longer need goals
You gain vision
Vision is the sight of life
And the sight of life can see
What you can see is what you can do
Close your eyes and see
Open your eyes and do
Your paths are already here
And when you can see them
You can take them to destination

The Kid in Me Can See
When we were kids we made wishes
Now we call them dreams
When we were kids we said thank you
Now it is something we get back to
When we were kids there were long summer days
And now we don't get a chance to buy summer clothes before the season ends
When we were teenagers
We thought we could change the world
Now we just say that is the way it is
There is nothing we can do
When we were teenagers
We could easily see what is wrong
even if we didn't have a solution
When we were teenagers
We want to marry the first person we fall in love with
And then we learn what it means to actually marry
When we were teenagers
We fought for our rights
Simply because it may have meant we got to do something or not
When we finish college or start working
We say we are going to buy a car, a house, a dog
We are going to get a job, get married, settle down
Then we have a job, get married, have a child, buy a house
We grow a new respect that our parents actually have done these very things
And what it meant to them, how it got there before we came along, and that they are only people too
And then we stop growing, talking about how things use to be
Yet the current moments are just as important as the "old" times we speak of
A birthday passes and we don't want to speak our age
A birthday passes and we want it not to come
WE forget that we get to be each age for one year
No matter what age it is
Let it be and take on the years
Example 17, 24, 32, 45, 53, 65, 72, 86, 95
That gives us all hope that our age is an accomplishment
That our research and growths have given back to us longevity to share
To share our wisdom's and our resilience
A soul truly does not know how old it is without the evidence of it's own body
A soul is ageless as love is endless and life is eternal
As we can see the good parts we create them
Retrain your eyes, reroute your mind and follow your heart
Create you as you see
And you will teach what you are
And live within your truth!

Soul Talking
When something tells me I should walk away and I stay
When something tells me I should speak on it and I say nothing is wrong
When something tells me to do it and I don't
When something tells me to stop and I won't
When something tells me to try it and I say another time
When something tells me to say I love you and I wait
When something tells me to ask for help, I try harder to do it myself
When someone says I look great, I say no I don't
When someone says I did a wonderful job, I tell them how hard it was and what a pain it was
When someone says I am a nice person, I say Ah no!
When my soul speaks, I want to walk towards my challenges
When my soul speaks, I want to talk about everything and right or wrong doesn't matter, the truth does
When my soul speaks, I am open to try new things
When my soul speaks, I say I love you without expecting to hear it back
When my soul speaks, I ask for help and I share the growth
When my soul speaks, I say thank you for the compliment
When my soul speaks, my heart opens, my chances are clear and my will is stronger than me
When my soul speaks, I see, hear, touch and feel with a person who is my partner and that is me
When my soul speaks, I see, hear, touch and feel you
When my soul speaks, it calls us all to attention
When my soul speaks, it is attractable and attractive
When my soul speaks, it is the freedom of me
When my soul speaks, it is louder than US and we all touch it

Expectation Rewind
When you do the unexpected you get the unexpected
What did you expect?
You can not get something different if you continue to try the same way to get it
You can only get something different if you do something different
Sounds so simple
Yet we will try to do things again and again with greater amounts of control to "control" the outcome
When the other outcomes can't happen if with control, they can only happen with openness to them
Try saying something different
Like when you feel yourself coming onto a situation where you could say something nicer
Do it
Like when you feel like you want to ask your children, what were you thinking?
You might say, what was your intention?
Like when someone says something mean to you, instead of fighting back,
Say, I know you didn't mean that, you must be angry about...
Like when you are already mad and you find yourself at the point of being mad at anyone,
Tell yourself, anyone is a moving target right now, so am better off not speaking at all when I feel like this
Never to forget, one of the most unexpected things to do, to grow patience with,
Is simply to not say anything at all
Silence is a language all in itself
Silence lets the other person see what they are up to
And provide a strength to the person who is silent,
At least until you can balance your thoughts and speak with a sense of love rather than stirring things up
Speaking in a tone of partnership rather than a tone of ownership, meaning you own them
No one wants to feel that, and if that is what is given that is what is received
Giving with heart brings hearts to you
Giving with love teaches love in groves
Giving with hope gives hope to all involved
Rewind your actions and take other roads
Speak a language that does not injure and you will as well find beauty in the other sides of actions
It is clear that when we are hurt we tend to hurt others
And when we heal, as we heal, there is enough healing to go around
All healing is, is doing the unexpected
Surprise yourself, and let what happens surprise you!
