~ A Happy Place ~

If you want to be in a happy place, think of something great
things that make your heart sing, to bring on a joyful state.
Don't ever let thoughts linger on things that make you curse
that doesn't help us out at all and just makes us feel worse

Have you ever seen a child watching themselves crying in a mirror? Haha they love it and it usually turns to laughter. Maybe adults should do the same when they're feeling down.
Sometimes we enjoy dwelling on our own misery but it doesn't do us any good. Like all negative feelings and thoughts...they fester away and make you sick. This can cause all kinds of illness to manifest in your body or mind. Forgive, forget and move on. 
Hating someone only hurts you, if there is anyone you dislike that much then they don't deserve any of your energy, so don't feed them. Forget.
If you're hating yourself for something you did or didn't do. Forgive yourself. Love yourself and realise we all make mistakes, learn from it. If you're unable to make amends, move on.
Just pretending you're happy can make things seem better you can actually trick yourself and before you know it you're back on track and feeling good about life.
Listen to some music, do a silly dance...lighten up and find your inner child...go pull silly faces in the mirror. Play..... be happy.

Your children are not your children

We do think our children belong to us and what a struggle it is to let them go, when they fly the nest, when they decide upon a path that you wouldn't have chosen for them.
My children are aged 22 and 17 and at the moment I agree fully with the path they're on.
All that really matters is they are happy.
All parents should be taught this.
I read this text and thought how true it is.
Khalil Gibran ~ an excellent text about parents and children: (below)

Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you,
And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.


You may give them your love but not your thoughts,
For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow,
which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
 

You may strive to be like them,
but seek not to make them like you.
For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.

You are the bows from which your children
as living arrows are sent forth.
 

The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite,
and He bends you with His might
that His arrows may go swift and far.
Let our bending in the archer’s hand be for gladness;
For even as He loves the arrow that flies,
so He loves also the bow that is stable.

Soulmates ~ The Journey

We take a journey you and I
through lifetimes passing closely by
a fleeting glance... a look... a peek
not even knowing what we seek.

Our souls feel that there's something more
but don't know what they're searching for
through stormy waters hear them cry
lost, alone... they don't know why.

A feeling of being... not quite whole
not fitting in your chosen role
ships passing in the night... sail on
a chance to meet and now it's gone

Remembering... soul says... 'I see you'
connection, bliss... a dream come true
complete... in our anatomy
you are... the other half of me.

The beauty of lifes story is
it's all a game of hit and miss
love and laughter, tears and pain
we incarnate... to do it all again

Do you believe in reincarnation...karma, soul mates?
A soul that you've shared many life times with and planned before birth to meet up with.

We are the world

To Corporations big and small
Politicians one and all
Islands, continents and states
I see all... your villainous traits

your country may be large or strong
with puffed out chests you sing your song
show off your might, stand straight and tall
but know... pride comes before a fall

governments with their legislation...
coveting your neighbours nation
your pettiness is sad and cruel
you think the world is yours you fool

this beautiful planet belongs to me
and has done since its infancy
If you are me and we are one
the earth belongs to all or none

In my world... borders don't exist
you don't need to be an activist
No fighting rules that don't make sense
Unite as one, don't build a fence

No killing, wars, death or slaughter
food for all and sweet clean water
If people say that I am weak
know, all is inherited by the meek

We only have one earth treat it gently.


I pray for a world at peace where everyone loves their neighbour as themselves.

We are all the same, everyone, everywhere. We are one. <3
