Life is a paradox;⁣
⁣
⁣The more you hold onto something,⁣
⁣The easier it escape from you.⁣
⁣
⁣The more you want to get rid of something, the more it is around.⁣
⁣
⁣The more you want to get rich,⁣
⁣The poorer you get.⁣
⁣
⁣The more you want to be smart,⁣
⁣the more you know, you don’t know.
⁣
The more you want to control something,⁣
⁣The more out of control it gets.⁣
⁣
⁣The more you want to accomulate,⁣
⁣The less you have.⁣
⁣
⁣The more you want to get there,⁣
⁣
The less you experience been here.⁣

The more serious you take life,

The more life plays jokes on you.
⁣
⁣The more you want to be like someone,⁣
⁣
The less you, You are.

Painters paint art and teachers teach in class.

Drivers drive cars and cowboys ride horses and cows.

Astronauts go to space and soldiers to war.

Clows paint their faces and make tricks with their hands.

I am just a big Lover, a big lover I am.

And been a big lover, love is all I am.

You say that you love me,

And I believe what you say.

You say than I am the best,

And I feel at ease and distressed.

You say that you hate me,

That I am the worst,.

You say you despise me,

And it’s when I feels insane the most.

And where do I go,… you are here with me.

I try to escape, but you find me and soon bring me in.

At night, in the darkness, I feel so at peace.

As I lay in my bed, ready to go into my sleep.

At night in the darkness, I refresh my soul.

As I leave you behind, I feel completed and whole.

But as soon as I awake into this living place, I find you again with your big smile,.. ready to mess.

Just to remind me in case I forget….

You say that you love me and I believe what you say.

You say that you hate me and it feels so insane.

You say I am your hero, and it makes me confused.

So, I hold you so tight, and won’t let you go.

And looking straight into your eyes, I know there’s no way back.

I say that I love you and no matter what,

Know that everything is just going to be alright.

Then, I take a deep breath as I place my hand on my heart…

I wipe clean the mirror and there, at peace we are!

Not everyone will like the work you do,

Not everyone will notice the quality of

your work,

Not everyone will apreciate your

attention to the details.

But, that’s just what you are.

You do your best not just for them,

To prove them how good you are,

You do it for yourself, because that’s

who you are.

Not everyone will love your work,

And you just have to be okay with that.

And look them in the eyes and say

This is what I do and is not for

everyone.

No amount of recognition will make you Great,

Unless you know within yourself that you are Great.

Not Great because you do Great things in the world.

Not Great because of your accomplishments.

But Great because you do all things and deal with people in a Great way.

Thank you God for giving me this Power,

of keeping my mind clear and positive.

Thank you God for giving me this power,

of been in complete harmony with everything around me.

Thank you God for giving me this power,

of having total control over my life.

Thank you God for giving this power,

of  having this inner peace withing myself.

And now God, I ask to keep the same power,

as I go with my life ahead,

because I am about ready, to get out of bed.

First, you think that things happen to you, then you realize that things happen for you.

First, you think that the world is against you, then you realize that you are agains yourself.

First, you think that the worl is out there, then you realize that the worl is within yourself.

First, you think you are the best, then you realize there is a word called ” Humility. ”

First you think you are your body, then you realize you are the one who creates the body.

First you think you want to change the world, then you realize you only have to change yourself.

Until you come to the realization that there is the voice in your head, and there is you.  You will constantly live your life in a reactive mode.  Reacting as you are acted upon, blaming as a way to justify why you are where you are, why are are what you are.  Judging others and judging your self.  Because that is what what the voice needs to survive,  a drama where it judges and labels every one and everything, including you.

Once you know that there is a narrative going in your head,  and that it has nothing to do with you. Once you can differentiate between the narrative and you, you gain your power back.  Your power to stand still and just observe the narrative. Your power to  shut the voice, your power to think and be who you want to be.
