11/17/24 I don't need to Know more I need to use more of What I know cc 2/26/18


I don't need to
Know more
I need to use more of
What I know

Simple things
Breath
Deeply not shallow 
Don't hold your breath
Stand straight
Don't talk so much
Or interrupt people
Eat slowly and chew thoroughly
Drink enough water
Pay attention to your thoughts
Relax
All is well

I don't need to
Know more
I need to use more of
What I know

11/8/24 Detached Observation Just another Day cc 10/17/18

 Detached
Observation
Just another
Day

Big plans, high hopes the days go by fast
I have come to realize there's nothing last
I'll sit joyfully & watch the days come and go
Breathe deep, relax and get into the flow
To stay fit and healthy takes more than hope
Exercise, eat well and learn how to cope
The victories in life are when we stay calm
Even if someone sets off a bomb
The past and the future only live in our head
So live in the present there's nothing to dread

Detached
Observation
Just another day

11/4/24 Most failure Isn't fatal Success is never Final cc12/24/17

Most failure
Isn't fatal
Success is never
Final

Success is great I've had a few
But it's in the failures that I really grew
What is success but a definition
Ambition, position, exhibition, recognition
Set your goals with thought and care
Life is a very short affair
Skills and knowledge are all we own
Everything else can be overthrown
All we're doing is passing thru
Be kind and gentle and enjoy the view

Most failure
Isn't fatal
Success is never
Final

10/27/24 Environment is Stronger then Willpower cc 2/18/18


Environment is 
Stronger then
Willpower

I set the stage and play my part
As I really try to create some art
Coffee, books and a glowing fire
Some new knowledge I may acquire
When shopping I skip the sweets & chips
Then there's no chance they will pass my lips
My cart contains fruits,veggies, nuts & meat 
I can eat an apple if I want to treat
We get four stations and there for free
It makes it easier to not watch TV

Environment is 
Stronger then
Willpower

10/25/24 If information was the Answer We would all be rich7/18/18


If information was the 
Answer
We would all be rich

If you got no education
And you need some stimulation
Start your own investigation
Ask Lady Google for information
Then take some time for contemplation
Don't get into condensation
Or get all worked up with anticipation
Put down a strong foundation
And get some really good sedation

If information was the 
Answer
We would all be rich

10/19/24 We shirk from Suffering But embrace it Causes cc 1/6/20

We shirk from 
Suffering
But embrace its
Causes

There's almost nothing better than
Wolfing down a quart of
Chocolate hazelnut
Ice creme
Or how about that organic
Red Zinfandel
A small voice has just become
Loud enough
Body fat and morning headaches
Are under control 
For now 
What an incredible thing
Coming to
The planet Earth

We shirk from 
Suffering
But embrace its
Causes

10/13/24 The possibilities Are much larger than Most people Suspect cc 9/7/18


The possibilities 
Are much larger than
Most people
Suspect

How quick things change with daily study
Our world is like a sculptures putty
We can change and shape it with our well
As long as we're willing to pay the bill
Study, think and try real hard
Except your flaws with disregard
The only failure is to not keep trying
To sit around with a lot of sighing
So dream big dreams and forge ahead
It don't mean shit you'll soon be dead

The possibilities
Are much larger than
Most people
Suspect
