One million things
Are on my mind
I am never falling
too far behind
*
Ten billion things
Influence my time
I am always calling
out in my mind
*
Hey, lets make this better
Take it all the way
Push it further
Towards content
For us and them
I can’t stop believing
That we will change the day
*
Far more success
With our design
We should never stall at
the starting line
*
What is success?
When we combine
All that we are hauling
feeling more than fine
*
Hey, let’s feel much better
Real good in many ways
Take it further
Move the system
For us and them
We should be achieving
Find solutions that amaze
*
Hey, let’s see what’s better
Stuff we all can praise
Bring it further
Dreams that contend
For us and them
We all can perceive them
Find more answers in our days

Seemed like a catchy phrase, so I made it into a poem. There is definitely meaning to it.

Sometimes it doesn’t come across in the best way to “share wellness” and sometimes we instinctively reach out for ourselves.

I do try to keep the goal in mind, and find ways to succeed.

Sharing wellness
Like climbing mountains
Reach a nice summit
Climb back down then
Plan another day
Find another new challenge
The sky, the sea, or on land
where we will have to balance
*
Constant chaos makes
our hearts grow stronger
How can that be right?
It seems so wrong still
*
Must be courageous
When days seem longer
Then when it is night
We have to belong here
*
Sharing wellness
Like bright discussions
Reach the best answer
Fight off chaos
Plan another way
Through this created challenge
The out of the box balance
Somehow we have to manage
*
Living our lives
Building a world
Give and take
Sharing wellness

I care for the days

In so many ways

I want it to be a better experience

For you and I

and the rest

Feeling good is the best

I cradle the day

Because I am hoping to make a difference

*

I have to keep pace

And sometimes give chase

Every day that I do it gets better

If we all try

Pass the test

Feeling good is the best

I take on each day

And try to enjoy all kinds of weather

*

There is rain

But it is clearing

The plants are fed

Sun is appearing

*

Work, don’t strain

Peace should be nearing

No days to dread

Nothing to be fearing

*

No floods or droughts

Just love

No doubts

We get ahead and achieve

When we care and believe in the day

That is what I am talking about

*

I believe in the day

It always will stay

We might as well make the best of it

For you and I

And the rest

Feeling good is the best

Let’s make it that way

And the rest will be impressed by it

*

Open skies

Light is revealing

Sometimes carefree

Days are appealing

*

Angles bright

For comfort feeling

Always aware

how we are dealing

*

Get it all out

And care

No doubt

We feel more peace and realease

When we are as fair as the breeze all day

We should really not have to shout

*

I work for the day

That we all feel okay

I hope that no one will question it

Feeling good is the best

We may have a chance to stop and think
and it can make a huge difference
as to how we feel
and to how we
progress towards better experience
*
Some thoughts can be
agonizing
absolutely
excruciating
and it seems surprising that we will again wade through such difficult emotions
especially when we have been riding high
for so long
and standing strong
when our confidence has protected us
until our self awareness wavered
Now specific reasons of comfort
fade into our pathway
beaten by the
footsteps of routines that have been
engrained in our day
because we can not always
weigh each fine detail
*
We face the natural tests of time
in life
*
All that we have is based on our health and our understanding of health
*
For example
we work and strive to feel good
individually and as a group
even towards all humanity
Is that not the bottom line?
Feeling well
*
Meanwhile
regarding discomfort
we may face cognitive dissonance
to not have afforded due time
to the current reason
when we also have a vast array of possible thoughts
and sequences of cognition
that can not always be successfully addressed simultaneously
*
Our worry can be misplaced
if we dwell on otherwise inconsequential antecedents to stress
*
Our focus is better spent on our greater plans and personal wellbeing
*
We may follow the masses
We aim to contribute to society
with appropriate awareness
yet sometimes we face judgements that are in fact unfair
Consider this just
sight and sound
only carrying power if we invest in it
We can avoid developing energies
that can be corrupted
Judgement that
if disregarded
is meaningless in comparison
to the big picture
and the long term consequences of ignoring our own goals
*
Attention to detail is essential
We do well to take care
as to which details that we focus on
and how long we spend on each situation
*
Reverting to thinking
that supports our comfort
we may search through our imagination and tweak a bright memory
or new course of action
on the level playing field
just as our time to get things done
and enjoy ourselves seems elusive
in a thought
in the next mere moments
we are transported to a place of contentment
with an effort to focus in another way
with no need for strenuous effort
all of the time
but for steady calm and ready exploration of our experience starting with our mind

Avoid a bad mood
Stay out of the feud
When people we meet
have a bad attitude
And there is nothing else
that we can do
Don’t feed the fire fuel
When nothing gets through
Avoid a bad mood
*
The day has had many challenges
We have to find a balance here
When we are under attack
When luck won’t cut us much slack
When we can’t turn our back
we have to start keeping track
*
Now I’m in a bad mood
I have not had enough food
People seem to me
to be getting
way too rude
Sometimes our ways of coping
can be too crude too
*
Avoid a bad mood
Never come unglued
When people we meet do not share our view
There are a few good things
that we can do
Start today’s fresh renewal
Whatever gets us through
Avoid a bad mood

---

---

Realizing when we are ahead of the game
Hidden from the masses
Protected from fame
Never having to worry
No one in a hurry
The only people here
are those that we know by name
*
We know for sure that we are all playing the game
Some treat it more like business
It depends how we frame it
The lines are not blurry
But fast like a flurry
One thing is certain here
Competition, wild or tame
*
No blame
No shame
There are rules
to every game
*
Take aim
Through flames
We can view
the changing game
*
Each new day it’s like we are starting a new game
First we follow classes
Then aim to stake our claim
We will share our fury
Reason a force, purely
We take our time here
A win however it came
*
Good fame
No blame
We get through
Working and
playing in the game

I also like to say that for me, optimism and patience to find inner peace, can make rough times more tolerable and good times better.

Also, some folks have it way tougher. My heart and ideas aim to reach out for anyone that will appreciate it.

Piece of Forever

Such a great idea
To pay much closer attention
Clearly the situation
could use some serious help
*
Now leave it alone
Time to pay much less attention
It seems that the situation
Is working out by itself
*
We should not despair
That life isn’t fair
Just stay aware
That it requires our good energy
*
Sometimes we give
everything that we have
But it is just not enough
Somehow we must still achieve
*
Even just in our head
And in things that are said
We can feel good to ourselves
and get through
Every achievement we make
will have something to take
It all depends on what we think and do
*
Sometimes I have no filter
But what the hell?
I work and I care, I try to be fair
Most of the time we have to pick and choose
*
We have to live our lives in our own way
and in the end
there is no way to lose
*
We can’t let go of this truth that keeps us together
When we stay strong in our minds
and our hearts feel better
We find success in the moment
And in more endeavors
We get through each day
with a better piece of forever

---

---

The future comes into range
Now is the name of the game
We move forever like a flame
Vital energy burning
The more that things change
The more that they stay the same
*
Our times past may seem strange
Now finds no strain and no pain
We heal forever like the rain
Vital energy streaming
In winter water freezing
In summer sometimes steamy
The more that things change
The more that they stay the same
*
Change can grab us tight
Even rip up all of our peace
Some changes will caress us
Like a comforting breeze
*
The present is our only range
Now is a fame without blame
We act forever never tame
Vital energy thriving
The more that things change
The more that they stay the same
*
Our times fast within our brains
Now minds the chain that keeps us sane
We link forever not in vain
Vital energy working
All day some bonds are certain
At night find connections worthy
The more that things change
The more that they stay the same

We see the new light
And we are truly astounded
I have to check my balance
and make sure I am grounded
I like to seem down to earth
And try to make good sense
Carefully feel blessed
For visions heaven-sent
*
We hear the new words
I can’t explain how they sound now
I have to take the challenge
Understanding surmounts it
We know what it is all worth
And try to share good sense
Graciously impressed
If you know what I meant
*
By running streams
And spoken dreams
Notes and musings
that have in some way counted
Towards the goal
Towards the soul
Thoughts achieving
When our success feels rounded
*
We feel the new thought
On which our future is founded
Beliefs that help us manage
By doubts we won’t be hounded
I’m sure that you can observe
And find much more good sense
Find what’s for the best
Before our time is spent
*
Better than we guessed
When we share our good sense
A better quality of life arrives
Take it in
Try to see, hear
and feel much more alive
*
We are the new day
With each next step we are bounding
Answer life with more courage
Opportunities pounding
Image clear and voices heard
Risk that we comprehend
Each minute, a test
We all need our good sense

There are the days that we see
as clear as can be
and days that we
just go with the flow
like times when we
are working so much
that we get out of touch
when all that we know
is part of the show
*
There are the days we can be
Both captive and free
And days that we
will grow like a pro
like times when we
accomplish so much
and come through in the clutch
When all that they know
is what we have on show
*
We have each day of the week
quite obviously
and days that we
start slowly feeling low
like times when the
world can be too much
That’s when we have to push
with all that we know
It’s just part of the show
*
It all works out
one way or another
New days to discover
How it works out
surely depends
on how our mind extends
below and above us
Aware of each other
Aware of ourselves
*
These are the days of which we speak
Each second complete
like days that we
still go with the flow
and times when we
do not need that much
and can still stay in touch
with all that we know
and the day will show
