Happy Mind


“Whatever living beings there may be — feeble or strong, long, stout, or of medium size, short, small, large, those seen or those unseen, those dwelling far or near, those who are born as well as those yet to be born — may all beings have happy minds.” (The Buddha, Karaniya Metta Sutta)

 

Treat yourself well
Enjoy the purr of a kitty cat
Feel the softness of your pillow
And the warmth of your bed
Treat yourself with kindness
We all make mistakes
Our worth is not at stake
We are loved beyond measure
Treat yourself with care
Tend to your needs
Nurture your heart
And enjoy a Happy Mind

 

 

Embrace all of you.

Hello, Belly

“I rely far more on gut instinct than researching huge amounts of statistics.”
(Richard Branson)


Hello, Belly
There you are
I lost sight of you for a moment
Got caught up outside of myself
Trying to find what was right
Working on pleasing the world
Taking everything as my own
Hello, Belly
Here I am now
Giving you a listening ear
Trusting your guidance
Coming back home
Balancing myself
On my own center
Hello, Belly
Together we journey now
Mind, heart and gut
The triangle of power
My inner sanctuary
I trust

-M.

 


Love who you are, and stay high with life.

You Are In Charge

“It is wrong to think that misfortunes come from the east or from the west; they originate within one’s own mind. Therefore, it is foolish to guard against misfortunes from the external world and leave the inner mind uncontrolled.”(Buddha)

Dive into your inner world
Get to know your subtleties
Your own east and west
Your north and your south
And when things don’t feel right
Steer your boat, adjust your sails
Sailor, You are in charge

Who Are You In This Vast Multiverse?

“You think you know how the world works? You think that this material universe is all there is? What is real? What mysteries lie beyond the reach of your senses? At the root of existence, mind and matter meet. Thoughts shape reality. This universe is only one of an infinite number. Worlds without end. Some benevolent and life giving. Others filled with malice and hunger. Dark places where powers older than time lie ravenous… and waiting. Who are you in this vast multiverse, Mr. Strange?” (The Ancient One, in “Doctor Strange”, as Doctor Strange is being moved through various dimensions of the Multiverse)

And One
Becomes Many
And Many Aware
In the One

Surrendering 

Constantly searching for balance
At each turn and each blossom
I wondered as I walked my path
About the heavy loads
Loads we carry for so long
Sometimes we forget it is there
In the depths of my mind
I finally shone a bright light
Come Come let me know you
Let me be your friend
Let me show you my magic
The magic of awareness
The heavy loads starting coming
One by one, to be seen
And as I turned around again
They dispersed and transformed
The magic was effortless
The word was surrender
Surrendering to all I am
Constantly searching for balance

Powerful Force

“Words are singularly the most powerful force available to humanity. We can choose to use this force constructively with words of encouragement, or destructively using words of despair. Words have energy and power with the ability to help, to heal, to hinder, to hurt, to harm, to humiliate and to humble.” (Yehuda Berg)

And before a word, a space.
Space to feel a word before it goes out to the world.
Space to calm the mind.
Space.
