LOVE, SERVE and AWAKEN Life is a precious gift Which can come To a sudden end At any moment— A gift to be cherished And appreciated And used only for Our highest good. We are capable of so much More than we know, Of personal transformation Beyond any limit— Tapping directly into The supreme power Which runs the Entire universe. We are sent here and Born into this world At this time and in these Circumstances to Make a difference For all of humanity. There is much to lose From playing small Within the box of the Familiar and comfortable— And an infinite amount Attain by rising Up out of all Small definitions, And the limiting stories we Tell ourselves and believe— Into an ever expanding Realm of consciousness— Fully awakening to our Power and true purpose, And helping others to hear And answer their own Incessant calling within to Love, serve and awaken!

EAGLE WINGS Moving from “I can’t “ to “I can” Is often a far journey Involving willingly and willfully Choosing to completely shift My own state of mind. I am a spiritual warrior Who has made that journey Hundreds of thousands of times, Moving out and moving on From the icy clutches of fear And the torturous state of Doubt, confusion and inner disarray. I know the quality of my life Depends upon constantly enhancing My ability to tell myself the truth And shift from lower to higher states, Consciously and on purpose Through an act of supreme will. There is no pleasure or satisfaction In allowing my own mind to beat me down Through listening to the shrill inner voices Which screech and scream “I can’t”, “I don’t want to”,”It’s too hard” and All the other dark and depressing chorus. Instead, I am like the eagle Who spreads his wings And leaps off the mountainside, Knowing that he can, And certainly will, Soar to the highest Reaches of the sky. November 6, 2017
