Expectations and Pretenses are Only the Mind

What is absolute
What is only temporary

What your mind wants
Does your mind create the scenario to satisfy itself

Does what your mind wants
Create disfunction in your life

Why does the mind always want
Does the Soul want anything at all

The Soul
Wants you to feel free

The Soul
Wants you to feel the breeze

The Soul
Wants you to see love within each

The Soul
Does not plan for the future

The Soul
Does not dwell on the past

If something ended
Remember that every moment ends

If you long for something
Live in the present moment building it

Do not seek anything except conscious living
Anything else will destroy you

Consciously breathe
Consciously see the other

When you stop focusing on what you don’t have
You realize you have everything

You have life
Live it as best as you can

When was the last time
You made yourself smile

When was the last time
You helped someone else smile

Do you love to live life
If you don’t then change your life

Drop everything from the past
Challenge yourself to drop it

Silence your mind
It does not always know what is best

The mind is a hard drive
It stores everything

This does not mean
You need all memories all the time

This does not mean
You must juggle every memory all the time

If you eliminated every memory from the past
You would no longer have the good and the useful ones too

Thank the Universe
For allowing you to have your memory

There are many
That do not even remember who they are

Focus on living your life to be grateful
Be grateful for every blessed moment in your life

If now is the time for change
Accept it with open arms

Change
Clears your path for something new

Your mind will resist
Reassure it that you have no time for its games

A new shirt
A new coffee shop

A new life
Create a dream life

Every first step a baby takes
Is received with pure joy

Giving smiles
Receiving smiles
