What Is..

What is a human being?

An ego with legs.

 

How To Be;

How to be prepared but not over think;

How to be genuine but not gullible;

How to be giving but not taken advantage of;

How to be open but not vulnerable;

How to be vocal but not bossy;

How to be heard but not annoying;

How to be sassy but not mean;

How to be sexy but not trashy;

How to be loved but not needy;

How to be romantic but not cheesy;

How to be Authentic. 

Cyndi Dale Quotes

"Forgiveness is our decision to surrender."

"To create change powerfully, one must powerfully change."

Cyndi Dale

To be nothing is like being everything

my mind is empty & I release all attachments

 

We've Been Boughten, We've Been Had

HERE we buy our freedom,

HERE we pay for our lives.

we're alone now

Graceful

accelerated, shifting moons
pressing raw with aggitation
to hold onto sores that no longer serve you
only to be realized by those outside

we need to free ourselves
from the repressed restraints,
the idolized impersonations,
the depths our egos will plunge to maintain chaos.

we are not the keepers of our paths
we are the believers,
the truth seekers,
the honest warriors of our make belief battle grounds

for our fight against injustice
is truly a fight against our own priorities
that which does not serve us
shall be cut off,
eliminated,
no longer wanted or needed

Ask for your highest good
Accept that which comes your way
as it serves to you your own specific purpose
and Allow the richness of your life
to be perceived as the royalty it is

the grace at which you tread, 
shall be the grace at which you accept your bounty

 

In Faith We Trust

to feel the pain of a thousand unmanned swords
piercing deeply the supple flesh you hold so dear
to mask,
to be the pain
for we torture ourselves
and bury the truth

the hilarity of our enlarged
egoic constraints of this mental box we confine ourselves to
so underserving,
so deceiteful,
so conniving

so certain we are to trust in false views
so dependent and lustful to not trust in the Faith

for we hold more certainty in the pain that is
than straight from the fear of the unknown
of what comes next

barely holding onto this torment,
this pain
why must we fight Faith?
why must we feel so undeserving?

Faith holds many masks
upon the same tale
of the same face
of the same truth

Faith is solely the belief that there is more
that there is good
and that we are deserving

In Faith We Trust!

How I see it

I know it is not my fault
and I know it is not personal

However

it doesn't change that I am hurt
and that I took it personal

truth.

Have you loved well?

simply love someone

Ho'oponopono Prayer

I'm sorry

I forgive you

Thank you

I love you

The Best Revenge

The best revenge is 

living a good life.

 ** my take on the famous George Herbert quote: "Living well is the best revenge"

--Depending on where you are in your state of healing--

 

Cravings

I crave to be needed

and wanted

and more.

 

Anger

Anger;

such an uncomfortable emotion

then comes emptiness

 

Welcoming Truth

Truth is welcomed when your mind is clear

and your arms are open to understanding

Happy!

They'll get it by the outcome of your actions
 Happy is my favorite state!
 

Releasing/Allowing

pushing me forwards

i have to release what was

to allow what is

 

Deconstruction of the Ego

To quiet ego is to quiet fear.
It only has space where you allow it to be.

The Calling

"Each event that occurs in your life is a manifestation, then, of the sum total of your intention, your past and future choices relevant to the underlying point of that particular exercise and the state of being you bring to the particular moment."

-Rasha, The Calling

 

My Own

I already have my own happiness.

 

To be more than a copy

I don't want to be one,

I want to be everything!

 

Lone Travelers

I slow the membranes of my core to a whisper
so silent that unless left very still, you shall not hear them
to practice for uses beyond ego and fear
to prevail on the other side of tragedy
for in this place, nothing is viewed as a loss

those tears that do run
are mourning thousands upon thousands 
of minutes unaware of the great lies
all that was believed
all that once was
has lost its ability to hold truth
for we are now the unbeliever

However, we stand tall on the other side
very aware of the deceit and destruction
keeping our minds clear
and our beings at a distance

I can warn you all I like
although I am aware of the greater knowledge
and with that I know you need travel that journey alone

I wish you peace.

subtlety

there's a subtle confidence in all my uncertainty.

 

 

Simply Honest

for a mind which is ripe with excitement for life
to tell tales of love, adventure and compassion
I will not place my shoe in your way
for your way is forward
the most complete direction on this plane

to taint your objectives
is to tare the life from your very hands
we shall never see quite clearly through each others eyes
therefore we shall never be so ignorant as to believe
that we know best for anyone but ourselves

this does not mean you cannot comfort or listen
or accept their words
it simply means they will find their own way
no matter how many words you say
or how many times you repeat them

for we only truly listen
when we are ready to hear

truth is simple, we just like to complicate it.

Many

I AM NOT ONE ALONE

I AM ONE OF MANY

 

The Caterpillar That Didn't Know She Could Fly

She closed her eyes
as if to close her heart within the same beat
the distaste that ran her mouth dry
wore more colour than the red to her cheeks

here lies her insanity
here is her broken heart
for every thought or feeling
holds a mirrored vibration

a broken trust can only be mended with time
driven out of silence towards repair
to find the two that can make sense of one

a whisper can only be heard if it is wished to be received
and i know not ask until that which be forgiven is welcomed
for an unwelcomed apology fares no difference
than a smile with no lips to hold it

too wounded to see any other
too distracted to hear any more
cocooned for feared survival
left to step from the repeated beginning

Those Stars

the sky is a new love of mine

although i prefer the sun,

there's just something magical about those stars

 

Blue Jay

why so mysterious?
so caught up in ones brain
why so distant?
distracted and distracting the same

i can't help but wonder
with your quietness so confusing
i can't help but question
to find your truths through calculated thoughts

caught off guard and vulnerable

locked into your pleasing awe

naivety turned into maniacal judgements

scrutinizing and losing of fun

wishing to return to moments of the unaware

enjoyments and comments of ease

for knowledge and wishing of more

too torturous for the unanswered

no fault but mine

for i let it all slip from my grasp

slipping and stumbling back up icy rocks

to the dirt path that once knew my way

for i naively thought i'd veered with another

but the further along the uncharted territory i got

the more alone and foolish i felt

whether he meant to follow or lead

is not here nor there

the fact that i stand all alone

is the real proof that it wasn't true to begin with

as i find my way back to my path

i clean off my muddy boots

and focus stubbornly ahead

i may always choose to follow the stray blue jay

and i may always look back with a slight frown

however i rest strongly in my belief that just once..

..that blue jay may turn out to be me.

 

Struggling With Mind Demons

I struggled for a long time, often against myself

unwilling to let go for fear

fear ruled my world and I happily subscribed

for within the fear there was comfort

 

Love Yourself First

Did you love yourself today?

I can't see your hands

how easy our minds wander to doubt
how easy we turn on ourselves for those we love
how easy we don't speak our truths

the frustrations of silence
how it can drive sane mad
maddening disconnection from that which you hold so dearly
to snuggle that which wish not be held

the frustration of purposeful avoidance
to want to solve what the other wants to simply let rest

what builds
what angers
what turns to resentment

beauty turns to those who pursue peace
resolutions of understanding
for passion is strong
and desires high.
 

In Sheeps Clothing

young bride of this mortal soil
how do the skies weep under our ignorance
how doth the sun pretend to sparkle
how fleeting we allow happiness to rest
how it slips so eagerly from our fingertips
yet we reconcile that a morsel is better than none

Oh young naivety, how easy we abide by their rules
to question, we allow our great fears of emptiness
placed atop our worldly visions
to halt us from even consideration

this manipulation of our souls youth
is unkind and perhaps unfair
yet belief is still strong
that we possess all the weapons to combat these false views
if only we'd accept reality for what it truly were
and not this ugly mask of tempered beauty.

to drink the blood of the veins of those who try to hold you
you will most definitely fall

I love therefor I let him flow

he resides always at our side

never truly gone

yet I ache for his embodiment.

Turn The Key

to never truly know what one wants
for every time attainment happens
new desires arise

to simply enjoy the chase
to enjoy the puzzle
no wrongs can be in that place

unless never to find satisfaction
for you can never find peace or rest
to acquire a taste for sleeplessness
as if it were your body's truest desire

how easy we allow ourselves to be manipulated
to enjoy the freedom in our lack of participation
careless wonder for what really concerns us

to delve deep into the desires of others
for their joy rests upon your construction
for when your pieces begin to fall
they shall turn a blind eye
upon all that they have created and destroyed

You, unknowingly if not willingly
gave them veto on such things
you gave them the key to your destruction
 knock knock, is anyone home?

To Be Bright

to worry not of pleasures that cradle the hands of kin
to step so gingerly, that you leave no trace
to be but a fragment upon this mortal soil
for our greatest glories rest solely in the mask of the fools that choose to believe in the untruths spoken from tongues mutilated under ideas fed from the unwanted. 
the unwanted, the unwashed
clinging onto the ledge of light with hopes of darkness that we will not let manifest.
 

How Selfish Are My Requests?

these distractions that come are of my own doing

placed in front to test

to slow

to see if i've progressed from my mistakes

temptations are the same slimy desires

bigger than our eyes

and more potent than our tolerance

i shed this mask of acceptance

i question your every command

i master my voice that reaches beyond

 

Questioning for the Good

The complexity of my soul continues to baffle me. 
Will i ever, in this capacity, be able to truly understand all that I know?
Does it matter?

Keeping what's most important to me close,
I release all the rest
in hopes that it will do someone else more justice,
for they only hold dust in my corner. 

[this universal love,
I greedily grab at it's hem,
wanting a taste
needing more.
being left unsatisfied]

Greed serves no purpose but self distruction
those desires are but a mirage
don't be fooled by their colorful appearance,
they contain but blankness on the inside.
Their fruit has all gone sour,
they don't care about you.

Focus on thy own self journey
thy own inner peace.
For no lips can hide a smiling Buddha,
there is just no need.

This desirous search for authentication
is one of necessity,
for no other truth exists.
Be wary of all,
always ask questions,
and never settle for being told how you should be.

The only one who knows you is you.
There's no need to try and prove it to others
we are all in the same boat
trying our hardest to make sense of this all.
Don't we all feel a little lost?
 

Choose to Live, Please

Fear of the pen is simply a matter of working through thoughts and perceptions. Sometimes I avoid writing things down, for fear that unfinished or not thoroughly dissected thoughts receive judgments unworthy of their finality. 

The process of my mind, takes me along winding paths and up above cloud filled skies. With it's constant change, I do not want to have even a tinge of possibility that those pre-thoughts may be glued to my forehead. Until I have resolved the thought, am I prepared to share it with the world. 

From past missteps, I have discovered that some anonymity is good. That quietness is just as fulfilling as laughter and that what we keep, is kept for reasons beyond logic. Instinct is truer than truth and often more confusing. 

This whole process is just that. The more garbage I slough away, the clearer the messages are delivered. Messages sent from connected hearts, beating as one, the language of the universe. It's not stupid to be open minded, nor ungrounded to believe in higher things than facts. To become healthier, more concepts are shared and open to be received. It's understandable that once a knower, you wish to keep quiet. For you realize the lucidity that others might poke at, hoping to plague you with holes and gaps to fill in with their negative disbelief and misguided fear. To see above the process of relating the information, one that subsequently the nonbeliever actually does possess somewhere on their person and just has yet to come across or might never get that far this time around, so you see it clearly. It is a waste of breath trying to convince someone of something that they already know but choose to ignore. 

The difficulty of all of this is you care. You care so much about yourself and about others, about our world, which is being taken from us bit by bit because we lie down and allow the darkness to creep their way towards total dominance. It is not entirely your fault, they sure are clever, it's in our food, our air, our heads, our environment, our leaders, our caregivers. Everything is set up to keep us at bay. Not everyone is fooled and surely they are doing their best, but what it comes down to is each individual has to make that choice for themselves, then once they have, there is so much out there to assist you on your way. They have to choose to take that initial step for themselves, that's all we ask. Basically I am asking you to choose to live, choose to be happy, choose to enjoy life. 

To even write all this, I myself, am still in my own progression and have a far ways to go. But if you all just knew that there is support out there and there is faith in you and us as a society, and that there's hope to turn this all around. I realize there is a lot of compiled, discouraging and purposely placed misinformation all around us, that is why it is so important to clean your body so you can start to hear it properly. Because the only one you can truly trust is yourself. You will give yourself all the answers you need and all the proper direction. We are just so overwhelmed, muted and suppressed, lacking the full enjoyment of our lives, that it's easy to focus on other things instead. Ignoring issues doesn't make them go away, you will just repeat them over and over, lifetime and lifetime, until you are ready to look and see. Why waste more time and allow the darkness more power over us? Why not fight for your soul?

Because deep down, underneath all of this, you see your own light.
and that is not something they can take away.
     

Just You And I

hush my sweet little baby,

life is not so hard

don't cry my sweet sweet cherub,

the morning shall arise once more

bringing forth the sunlight of a brand new day

Mounds of happiness just so the two of us can play.

To Be A Friend

I am fortunate for my thoughts and the beautiful souls in which I attracted who deliver unto me guidance, love and support. Without their constant reminder of what's more, of what's accessible and of what's important, I fear the shaking of my stability on this earth. To remember these thoughts, for in times of weakness and doubt, they may be harder to recollect. To not push them away for the results of their lessons, but to encourage them as much as they encourage you along your own journey. Everyone stumbles, everyone misjudges, everyone struggles. Your job as their friend is to let it pass without judgement. To allow them the space to misstep without loss. To be there for them, because they may be too quiet to ask.

Our love is Universal

Ever-Accessible

Ever-Revolving

Ever-Ever.

What Is Meant For Me

I receive what I need and all other is not meant for my hands.

Trust, to be left in the dark - when the light does not concern me.

Appreciate the light - when the darkness tries to conform me.

 

I AM

I AM:    Human, sadly
I AM:    Tall, happily
I AM:    Quiet, at first
I AM:    Awkward, all the time
I AM:    Passionate, proudly
I AM:    Aggressive, sparingly
I AM:    Spiritual, humbly
I AM:    Goofy, mostly
I AM:    Cuddly, regularily
I AM:    Vegan, boldly
I AM:    Logical, artistically
I AM:    Artistic, logically
I AM:    Vulnerable, protectively
I AM:    Thoughtful, often
I AM:    Loving, no matter what
I AM:    Understanding, honestly
I AM:    Competitive, understandably
I AM:    Constant, always
I AM:    Myself

forever and always I AM
and so it shall be
 

Love

Fearless

fearless was not just for you.

Adieu

everything that could have been

has long been shattered

into a million unmatchable pieces

Adieu

pictures have all turned sour

a sickly, sweet taste

leaving no desirable compliment

Adieu

lorsque la paix revient

la vie continue

Adieu
 

The Falseness of My "Plan"

for so long it was my thought

my decision

how the darkness fooled me

it's weakness, that the light is much brighter 

as it inevitably seeps through

carrying with it honesty and truth

recognizable traits, ones incapable of forgetting

the light awoke me from my daze

ready to sleep no longer

for sleep is a false sense of security.

I Listen

To be shy and yet to have so much to give, I quiver through my shaking knees. I will push onwards, past my uncertainty and deliver a world unto myself, one that I may treasure for ages to come. For every time I revisit this plane, it will have been my hands that carved these structures we call life. My entity is bigger than what lies in front of me. My mind, wider than the depths of it's comprehension. To accept that I may not always be able to put words upon the thoughts I possess and to be patient to the understanding that words may not always express it all.

If You Wish

your words hold no truth
when spoken out of pure intent to disarm
your defence only strengthens
my lust to escape

escaping aggressive attainment
blind to it
myself the un-seer
until no legs could escape it
no ears could un-hear it
and no eyes could forget it

backwards eyes, see all the clearer
to what you want, behold
thy dynasty you surrender

the water you tried to keep
a palm, an unsatisfactory vessel
slowly seeping, immeasurable to the eyes
brains cannot confine to pitiful thoughts
absurdity in the pause

your success, your own demise
all you wished to attain
but a sad reflection of truth
a forced dishonesty of will
lifeless and empty, to no advance

your visions, lustful and desirous
led you but astray
forceful nature brought about opposite envisions. 



[To sleep,
to rest,
in thy bed you did create.
night night, young naivety
tomorrow's sorrows will be of variance colours.]

The Star of the Aura

"How easy it is for individuals to accept primitive as well as intellectual ideas that rationalize the thrust of ego upon ego, without ever analyzing the attitude and the aura of the masses, who are saturated with the concept of oneness as the blending of human personalities. The oneness men should seek to understand and manifest is that of the individuality of God reflected in man."

Kuthumi

-The Human Aura-

The Reading of the Aura

"The trials of life that comes to man are in reality his teachers, that is to say, they substitute for his teachers because he will not hear them; yet it has been clearly recorded in the Scriptures and ancient writings that the time would come when man should not be far removed from him."

I was recently fortunate to attend my friend Kelsey's wedding, which was beautiful and elegant and exquisitely simple. I wish all the best and bright times ahead for my friend and her new beau. Kelsey is a woman of many talents, one of which is music. Here is a video of her performing at a Benefit Concert for our dear friend Randy. 

 

The Susceptibility of the Aura

"Little do men realize, when first they ponder the nature of themselves, the ramifications of the consciousness of each individual. The influences of the world, the thoughts of the world, the feelings of humanity are easily transmitted consciously or unconsciously from person to person; and in the transmittal of thoughts and feelings, neither sender nor receiver has any guarantee that the patterns of his intent will be preserved intact."

-The Human Aura- 

Fighting for the Light, Fighting for our Lives

To not want to live in this world
for you do not make sense to me
send me home, I beg of you
send me back to the love I remember

resisting the urge to become sheep
resisting to conform my thoughts
never to go against the truths I hold
never to be swayed to believe lies

you aren't even aware your lips are moving
you aren't even aware your words have been heard
hollow earths core a falseity
only as real as the creation we've made ourselves

fighting blankness to recollect reason
fighting decay to regain oneness
the fake only know words
but the real know everything beyond

crushing laughable reason
failing to succumb to irrational thought
seduced by unmistakable light.

to be true is to be free. 
        

To Only Be

Only showing you, that which you wish to see

Only being, that which you wish to expect.

parents and technology are possibly the best combination, always good for a laugh.
