Kaleidoscope


Here we go again
Back at square one
Somewhere I said I'd never be
Runnin away from that lil girl inside of me
A part of me I couldn't be
Hada take care of other things
Backbone of the family
The weight of the stress give it to me
What's the addition of the world to a Queen
Wears her heart on her sleeves
Each moment sacrificing willingly
For those that call on me
I told you I am God
Now can you see
We are God
And nothing is impossible you see
You get stressed and I remind you to be
Stressfree
Give me your pain
Hurt worries
It's okay you can vent to me
I'll take it
Lift it
Body building
Stronger
Rise from knees to feet
Pray every motion of the way
Standing fearlessly
Dealing with the same situation womanly
No change of heart or spirit
Just reacting without the lies
Of the ego
I don't focus on what happened
I just do what I have to to fix it
Repair it
I can wear a hardhat
And doctor suit simultaneously
SuperWoman that's me
It's who my mom taught me to be
But even a SuperWoman like her
Needs some encouraging
So that's where raising your children well comes back lovingly
Take care of you like you took care of me
It's the ways of Love
Constantly reciprocating
But even still
I'm numb to this situation
Honestly unknowing
Wondering
If I'm being nonchalant or
At Peace
It's just sad to see the shackles on your feet
I don't know how many times I can pray for you be free
It's a trip
That I smoke to elevate
And yet your smoking buries you
Why can't your Spirit take care of you?
Why do you listen to the wrong voice in your head
Don't speak and hear the knowledge
Do you not hear your soul cry?
You still wanna buy that rock from that guy?
I know you don't
Yet your ego still makes you do
And then you have to come home to
More heartbreak felt for and by you
Vicious cycle
Seems never ending
But I still have to believe
If I have no hope, I have nothing
But you are everything
God
& it pains me to see your ego take you to a level that you are not worthy of
I tell you time and time again
I just want you to rise above
Fuck if I'm being repetitive
I'm gonna say it until you rise and Live

I believe in you
Now believe in yourself
I commend your progress
But your "mistakes" still cause extra stress
Fuck this mess
I'm gonna go get dressed
And put on that childhood cape
But this time I'm not scared
Or bitter
Because I see the crown
Here it shines
With this smile from inside
I'll take your weight
So you can cleanse
No matter how long it takes
I'll put on the cape
As long as you keep yourself safe
Each letter written--I hope it radiates
Out and touches you
Grasps your soul and tugs at your spirit
"I love you unconditionally" tell me you hear it
The tears once cried have watered my seed
But other people are drowning
Including you
The spirit offers swimming lessons
But you have to listen

Fly free

Love



Here's that word.
The word everyone wants
says but can't define....

Love is a funny thing like that.

or maybe that's people...chasing something that they can't even describe...

What fools...
or maybe perhaps this is the greatest example of Faith we have in Life.

We just KNOW...just KNOW this is good.
That we need to share the feeling....
that there's nothing better in the world.

It's sort of funny that skeptics will question God because of the lack of example of "seeing" God but yet will remain FAITHful that they will one day have Love.

The same abstract definition, description, and intuitive faith we have about Love is the same thing we should have about God.

Love has no form. and neither does God.
Yet we can't deny the feeling.
We can still express love to others...
the action may be an example of the expression of Love, but that isn't Love itself.

Yet we don't question Love...

Love is the foundation of Life.
God is the foundation of Life.
Love is Spirituality.
Spirituality is Love.
and this is ALL God.

The thing that gets me is people LIMIT their experience with Love, which means they limit their experience with Life.

People chase loving romantic relationships with partners.
Give so much of themselves for the feeling
fill each moment with passion when they are with that person

yet this is the only time they experience the true Nature of Life.
They don't share this same PASSION for Love for
their parents
their children
the Earth
the Animals
the Wind
the Water
the Stranger
the Friend
YOUR SELF....


Why is that?
How can you have all of these moments with all of these beautiful Beings but not feel JUST as passionate about Loving them as you do about your partner?


Love is so much more than a romantic relationship with a partner.. You should have a loving relationship with everyone in your life.


Living in Love is a transformation, an Evolution--the ways of the Spirit. The ways of God.

Fall in love with Life. Be madly, passionately, Spiritually in Love with Life.

Passion isn't sexual--and there's different ways to Love
to express Love
but we should all practice Unconditional Love as much as possible
and attempt to get better at it each day.

Some people may be negative influences in your life--but that doesn't mean you should love them any less--but just Love them differently. You can Love passionately at a distance to those negative people. you can pray for them--send them good thoughts.

Sex isn't the only opportunity to express Love.
Every moment should be an expression of Love.
of Unconditional Love.

Love is free
and should be given Freely...

It flies...it transforms...

Love changes.

To Love someone through their growth, their changes, their transformation, their evolution. That's Love. That's God.

the Spirit of Love doesn't change--the essence--it's Being, it's foundation; it should always remain Unconditional, pure, genuine--but the expression of it does change.

because life changes--people change.
yet it still Is.

So many have lost the Passion for Spirituality and Love
and wonder why it doesn't last...

Passion is where you care DEEPLY in your Spirit
the connection
the Oneness

care enough to build Love

Anyone can Love quickly... But to care enough to take your time--to build, that's beautiful...that's special.

That's Passion.

There's so much to say about Love...yet nothing needs to be said simultaneously.

Love isn't something we know.
Love is something we are.
It is what we are.

You don't need to read a book to learn how to Love. Look to yourself, you are Love.

Trust yourself and live your Life like a Lover, not just a lover.

Perfection



Who told you you weren't perfect? It was a lie.

Perhaps the biggest lie that has ever been told to Man
It gave bed to weeds of insecurity, self-hate, fear, sense of powerlessness, the idea of "mistakes"....

In reality, there is no such thing as "imperfection".
"imperfect" is a man made idea. In Nature it does not exist.

When you see a wilted flower
one with missing petals
a rotting apple
a broken tree branch
you may think of this negatively...

think it's "imperfect"
think it's "ugly"
"messed up"

but those are YOUR thoughts
YOUR labels YOU are putting on that object.

The wind doesn't look to the flower and think it's ugly.
The rotting apple that has fallen to the ground that will become a part of the soil and add nutrients which will allow more Life to grow surely doesn't think it's imperfect.
The insects that can now roam or plant eggs on the broken tree branch that is laying on the ground surely don't see this tree branch as
ugly
messed up
or imperfect...

WE are the same. Perfect. Always to Nature

When we make a "mistake" we are so very hard on ourselves even thought that experience leads you to a lesson, which leads to Growth.
Growth is winning, so even when you "lose" you win.

Your freckles aren't "imperfections" to Nature--to society perhaps
but society is man made.

Big lips
small lips
curves
big ass
small ass
brown eyes
green eyes
red hair
thick hair
dark skin
light skin
accent
no accent

these are not imperfections...they are not things you need to change
these are things that you need to Love.

Your body is a reflection of your Spirit.
well I like to think so.

This is why you need to take care of your Spirit.
It will only inspire you to take care of your body.

I feel people use the whole "i'm Human, i'm not perfect...only God is perfect" as an excuse to repeatedly do things they don't need to do.

To make excuses to people that they continue to hurt
and force them to be forgive because if they don't--they aren't being understanding...

People also use it as an excuse for themselves when their Spirit keeps pointing out to them that they need to change and instead of changing--they continue to do irrelevant things to their Spiritual growth because "they aren't perfect"...

Am I saying you're going to do things "right" all the time? No.
If you did--how would you learn?

But what is "right" anyways?
Can we define that--it has been defined for us so much.
Told to use what Life is.

Spiritual things can't be explained into words...
words limit...

You can feel...

THAT'S how you know what is "right"...by feeling it with your Spirit.

If you feel "insecure" it's not because you're imperfect but maybe, perhaps because someone or even yourself is making you feel less than what you truly are so this feeling is just here to let you know it's time to align with your True Self.

your Perfect Self.
your Egoless Self.
God.

Saying you aren't perfect is speaking death to yourself and leads into a life where you don't accept yourself...you go looking somewhere else to BECOME Perfect.

But you don't need to become something you already are.

You already are Perfect.


You've always been.


And you will always Be.

Hippies


Lately, I've been seeing a lot of people calling themselves "hippies" or "modern day hippies" and they represent NOTHING that hippies are about in the their lifestyles, actions, or mindsets...

So I would like to address theses false identities and labels because you are callin' yourself something you know nothing about.

First of all, smokin' weed does NOT make you a hippie! So just because you smoke--don't call yourself a hippie. Smoking is not a "requirement" to be a hippie. Many "hippies" many happen to smoke, but that's because it gives them a sense of Love & Spirituality which goes with their beliefs.

Wearing a headband doesn't make you a hippie any more than me holding a basketball in my hand makes me a NBA player. Just because you look the part, doesn't mean you are.

And my final one that really bugs me, excuse me if you think I'm being negative, is the girls who wear cakes of pounds of makeup and girls or even guys that call themselves hippies but are materialistic!!!

materialistic hippie

is an oxymoron.
They are complete POLAR opposites...

There is no way in the world you can be a "hippie" and be materialistic, that is every thing they are against.

Being slaves to consumerism.
slaves

Hippies are about 4 things
Peace
Love
Freedom
and Unity

They are DEEPLY passionate about all four things...
Usually feel very connected to nature and prefer the natural beauty...
They are comfortable in their own skin
open minded

They want good for every man, animal, and plant...

To me, we should all be hippies at heart because all four of those things are what Spirituality is all about.

We are Spiritual Beings.

We feel the connection to one another...

Hippies want to just be happy...
live freely as Mother Nature intended for us to
but aren't afraid to speak up against in justice.

That is what a Hippie is and if that is not you
if that is not what you're about--stop throwing a false label on yourself just because you think it's the latest trend.....

in a way it's sort of offensive to the movement of them in history when they were so outspoken and about so much change....

Don't disrespect the legacy.
Live it.
Be it.
