As is your negative system Negativity is a bad word isn’t it? It means that you’re being negative! You’re failing yourself, your life, irritating the people around you, refusing to pull yourself together. Not realising how lucky you are. Refusing to look on the bright side. And on and on and boringly on. Reality checkContinueContinue reading “Don’t Fear Your Greatest Teacher”

Never
Are you holding a grudge? About? Holding a grudge means giving other people power over you, and that’s something I will not do. I won’t let unkind people live inside my head, turning me bitter, ruining my digestion with the extra bile, and generally allowing me to hold myself back. I deal with things toContinueContinue reading “Never”
“I’m Talking ‘Bout Good Vibrations”
Seeing the light Do you realise that as light hitting drops of water in the air creates rainbows, you’re seeing the light spectrum? You probably do but we think about them as rainbows not that we’re seeing what light looks like. A small tweak in thinking can make a big difference to the way youContinueContinue reading ““I’m Talking ‘Bout Good Vibrations””
Small Big Things
My life has come down to small things I once dreamed of big things But now inconsequential things Make me happy And yet they are the bigger things The real things Do I feel good? What fun can I have today? The dreams that disappeared On the path of survival Don’t matter Because they wereContinueContinue reading “Small Big Things”
I’m Old?
I’m writing this down because I’m old I know the rules I mustn’t think that I could remember these words Because I’m past it Over the hill On the long slippery slope To happiness Finally You though I was going to say something else Admit to being a has-been Admit that the world has passedContinueContinue reading “I’m Old?”
Not the furthest
Share a story about the furthest you’ve ever traveled from home. Freedom The furthest I’ve ever traveled was New Zealand, as far as you can go without meeting yourself coming back. That was 2-week meet the family visit so I saw far too little of a magnificent country. The most important trip was Sedona andContinueContinue reading “Not the furthest”
Rise Up
This poem was inspired by fellow writer, Debra Reay. Like myself and many others she has been through hell and come out of it as her own person. It is also dedicated to anyone who has had to fight to be themselves, and to the amazing women in my groups, all of whom have risenContinueContinue reading “Rise Up”
Live!
This is an old rhyming poem that I decided was worth a 21st Century revisit. I don’t normally go for rhyming now, but it seemed to me that the message within the poem was one worth repeating any time that you can, in any way that you can. Hope it inspires your best decisions. LiveContinueContinue reading “Live!”
Within/Without
We all know that our minds control our lives, our thoughts create our reality, and yet it took me a very long time to understand how key that information is. I used to say the words, believe the words, but I never actioned the words. I never grabbed those words by the throat, shook themContinueContinue reading “Within/Without”
Children My Children
This is an interesting one with its dual title. I didn’t feel comfortable signing it ‘from God’ but that’s what it felt like when I was typing it. Just take it whichever way your beliefs allow. From your chosen deity or someone who wants you to be happy. Children My Children (or the concerns ofContinueContinue reading “Children My Children”
