The World Needs Peace






The worls needs Peace - we all know that
But how to do it, it's been said
Too many times without avail
Too few can really do it well!
People, is simple, is not hard!
And it sure is right at your hand
Just BE it! Peace is right
within you - bring it to the light!
The only thing we need to fight
Is our Ego, then we might
Become the beings that the God
Meant us to be!
I know, is hard,
But easy too, the aim of all
is to BE Peace!
The is a toll
We have to pay - but that is vain
What people say of us - their pain!
'Cause anyone who doesn't know
Who really is, their vibe is low
We have to be above our mind
Mind is a tool - like any kind!
We are not mind or brain or thinking
All those can get us only sinking
Instead of raising all above
And making Earth a place of love!


And now a song that expresses like no other all this philosophy:

About Thoughts



This life is simple. But ain't made
Like you would say, of good and bad.
It's all about the way you want 
To see things... and that makes you daunt!
We will become the thing we think
about the most, and in a blink
We will attract all that we have
On our minds, how we behave
Will lead our lives, because what is
On the inside, just like a wiz
Will manifest outside as well
That is the Law, is not a spell!
If we can  see it in our mind
We sure can have it in our life
As long as we don't start to doubt
And worry, or let others flout
Our dreams and wishes - it is best
To keep it for ourselves, and rest
Assured that we are able to
Do what we want, we can get through!
The thoughts have frequencies, like all
The things - and that we call
Vibrating energy, which might
Attract the things that are alike!
If you may want to change some facts
Change frequency, and that attracts
The thing you think of, but be smart:
Don't say "I don't want"! that's the part
You have to pay attention to 
To always think what's good for you
Not what is bad and you don't want
Cause you will get way more of that!
Whatever you are thinking of
Creates your life, so think with love!

 It was a revelation to me, reading Rhonda Byrne's books and learning about the power of thoughts... It also got me kind of puzzled, because so far, I thought that when I wanted something to come out right I would have to image the worst... and it kind of worked for me at that time. But after I gave it some thought, I understood why it was workin for me. I knew that saying: "hope for the best, but expect the worst". And that is what I was applying. This is precisely what they mean with all this teaching about the vibrations of thoughts and all that. At the first sight, people would say "okay, if I imagine something and I want it really bad, it should happen to me. But why doesn't it????" Cause if you only do that, it most likely won't happen! Because the trick is to hope for the best, but to BE PREPARED for the worst! I mean, to be okay with whatever happens, to be at peace, to not be desperate about it happening! I found that concept somewhere else too, I think it was in Wayne Dyer's books, that as long as you WANT something but do not NEED it, you will get it! The worse thing you can do is to ATTACH yourself onto something, no matter what that would be. Cause then the chances are big for you to loose that thing or to not even get it, to start with! 
Even if I was imagining the worst outcome of a situation, or maybe even because of that, I was kind of getting myself used to the things not going the good way, so I was de-attaching myself of the good outcome, if that makes sense. But also, I would never say anything bad, everyone that knows me knows that I used to be the most positive person and always saying "this will work/ we'll make it/ I will have that" and so on. But by thinking that it actually may not happen, I wasn't getting desperate about a certain thing to happen, so basically I was hoping for the best but getting ready for the worst. And as I was at peace inside, the vibration was good, I guess, so I was getting the best! 
Now, as soon as certain people (won't mention who, as its irrelevant, is not even their fault) started to tell me that I am being unrealistic with all my positive talking and always looking so self-assured, everything changed! It made me stop talking only positive things and being confident, because I didn't want them to say that I am being unrealistic and all that stuff about me, so the good outcomes stopped showing :( I know I am the only one that is guilty for letting them do that to me, but I had no idea about all this vibration stuff so I thought they may be right. It killed all my magic! lol
Now, so you know, it does help to visualise good things happening, and good outcomes for your wishes and goals, but only if you are at peace with the fact that things may possibly not work out so good. Or, if we see it from the religious point of view, we should trust God completely, and not even doubt for a second that he will help us, even if the odds show that what we want might not happen. We have to be sure that in any case, God will do what is best for us, even if for the moment it seems bad. There is always something good in any apparently bad situation and sooner or later we may realise that. But that is hard to do, I know it, to just pray and be 100% sure it will happen. I, myself, can't do that (I am working on it, because,, obviously it does work), so for me, speaking positive and being calm and open to anything, and imagining the worse case, without getting scared or being desperate, does help. Seeing myself finding ways out of any bad situation that might arise, and being prepared, does help, not venting and speaking out loud words like "what if..". 
That's why they say that when you want something, yo uhave to concentrate on thinking positively, because if you say "I want a new car"... might bring you a new car, but if you say "I hate the car I own" will let you have the car you own for a very long time still! lol. The law of attraction doesn't read other words than the object of your thinking. The thing you are concentrating on, that is what you will attract, wether it is the good one or the bad one for you :) So either only think positive thoughts, either let the negative ones not get much attention, just let them be, and they will pass!
Peace!

The Present Is All We Have




The present moment's all we own
All that we need to us is shown
Right here, right now, it's all a gift
For us to find a way to shift
Our lives from future and from past
Back to the present, and at last
We'll find the peace we're craving for
'Cause now there is no need for war.
If we accept whatever is
And stay in peace and mind our biz
Miracles happen, and we'll be
Joyful and peaceful, 'cause, you see - 
When you don't let your ego-mind
Wander like crazy, get you blind
You start to see the real world
That is all made by our God
With purpose only, nothing's vain
Nothing's for nothing, but your brain,
When you don't order it to stop,
Will try to make you think it's crap!
You have to only use your mind
To help you do things that are kind
For you and for whoever else
Don't let it turn you to a mess!
So, breathe right now, deep, long and good
Just think of breathing, and you should
Feel how your mind is getting mute
Just meditate, get back to root
To present moment, to your soul
Feel peace inside you, you are whole
The way you are RIGHT NOW - no need
For nothing else, you are indeed
A miracle and God-like thing
You're made of energy, you sing
A perfect song, just don't destroy
Your holly spirit and your joy
With noise from ego, from the time
Past, future - nothing makes you rhyme
More than THIS moment, so just feel
Your inner energy, your thrill
In every little  thing you do
Breathe, feel your body, just feel YOU!
Each time you let your thinking drift
Away from here, the joy is missed!!

I think this is a fabulous thing, knowing about this "magic trick", as I like to call it. I am so thankful to Eckhart Tolle for that! I have been living a big part of my life being tormented by thinking... forward and backward, to present and to past, identifying myself with both. And that caused me so much suffering, because when you see yourself as being defined by the past experiences, automatically you get frightened by the future ones. The irony of this is that we can't control any of them! The past is dead and gone, the future is uncertain... so why do we bother? I think it's simply because we are crazy... 
When we concentrate on the present moment and only live in the present (of course, you can make a list of the "to do" things, set your alarms to go off when things need done, lol, otherwise you'll get in trouble...but just do not think of those things too much!). Trust God (who is in you, by the way, as in everything else) that will give you the best inspirations and the best "hints" as to what's to be done for your higher good. And He will, because He always does, only that you can't hear Him because of the horrible noise made by your mind, powered by the Ego. There is no heaven and no hell, the "heaven" that the Bible refers to is the peace inside you, and the "hell" is the torment and the suffering cause by the devil, who is your Ego. Jesus tried to make us see that in many of his teachings, only that people didn't manage to understand, especially because of their egos. The devil doesn't want us to feel good, does he! 
For a long time I had the wrong idea as to what "meditation" is.. I thought it was sitting and thinking long and hard about something. But hell, NO! Meditation is precisely thinking about NOTHING! Not thinking. Giving your mind a break, allowing it to get cleaned of the bad vibrations generated by it with so much thinking about present and future. The mind is a magnificent tool but we have to learn how to use it, and to learn how to not let ourselves be used by it. It's simple, if a thought makes you suffer, means you drifted either to the past, or to the future. Get back in the present. There are no problems right in THIS moment, are they? They only arise when we drift back or forth.
Here's a few techniques to help you stay in the present:
- become consciuos of your breathing, feel how the air is getting in and going out of your lungs, pay attention to this process for a few moments and your mind will calm down. It is recommended to do this as often as you can! (for me finding this out was vital as I was practically getting ill because every time I rush or am stressed, my breathing becomes very fast and shallow and it's like all the air gets stuck somewhere... )
Good breathing has a great power of healing and energy harmonising.
- another thing you can do is shift your attention every day, in any activity that you do or even when you are listening to someone, when you are watching something, to the sensations inside of your body, feel the energy in your hands, in your legs, in your chest, untill you manage to feel your whole inner body as pure energy
- allow every feeling to exist, don't deny any way that you may be feeling, just let the feelings be, try to be the conscious that is witnessing those feelings, because you, as conscience, are way way more than just a body, a mind, some feelings...
This is what meditation is about...of course, is best when you can be alone and do all this, and able to completely relax, but you can very well do it in your everyday life, and the more you practice it, the easier will be for you to do it, and you will see how everything will get so much more serene, at least :) I am at the "serene" stage, they say miracles will happen, but I can't tell you they will, as I didn't get too good at staying in the present moment all the time, so I am not there yet :) But I sure feel alot better than I used to, maybe even that is a miracle :)
Peace!

Comparing yourself to others

 
 
 
I know you've learned you should compare
Yourself to others, and you swear
That many can do better than
You ever could, and made a plan
To try and fight and beat them all
But deep inside you're insecure
And think you're worthless and no good
And so you stop to hope you could
Get what will make you feel
Complete and happy, and you still
Try hard to fit in with the crowd
And that can never make you proud
But listen here, you are just one
There's no more "you"'s, you are a sun
You have to know you are on Earth
With one great purpose, from your birth!
And all the things you do or say
Are perfect in a higher way
God made you do all that for you
And for the others, so be true
To what you feel inside your soul
Do what it makes you feel like whole
Relax and never think you're less
Than any other human, bless
All things and people and enjoy
The good in life, do not destroy
The purpose that you have, you know
It may not be fame, fortune, show...
You might just be a simple guy
You shouldn't bitch and start to cry
Be sure that you are perfect just
The way you are, and that you must
Be thankful, joyful, and to try
To do your best to feel alive
The real you is just the same
As everything, it's just a game
Of forms and roles here on the Earth
And everyone has unique worth!

This has been one of the main problems in my life so far... competition, comparison to others, fighting, thinking that I was worth only as much as the things I was doing were worth, by comparison to what others were doing. Or even worse and tougher, to what I did myself in the past! It was easier to do better than many but though to do better than myself when younger and with more energy.
So, for me it was like major relief when I read all the teachings about conscience and that we really are not our ego neither our actions, form, whatever, but we are way more than that, and the best thing, we are all the same inside! We are all made of the same thing, the same thing that the whole Universe is made, behind form. So, when you see things from this point of view, any comparison becomes really useless and even funny. Comparing only the things that wont last... what's the use to that nonsense? Is pure wasted energy. We are all the same only with different missions (Karma), that have been given to us so we can evolve and get closer to perfection. It's silly to compare, noone is better than anyone, or worse, for that matter. We all have the same immortal matter in us, and the rest is going to vanish anyways, it's just a dream, you may say, a role. Comparing ourselves would be like saying about an actor that has played the bad guy in a movie that is a mean person, when he was only playing a role, of a mean person.
I hope I made some sense with this one :)
Peace!

Money

This topic is a bit of tricky
'Cause people think that money's sticky
And who is full of them, you see
Those should be hated 'cause they're free
Of any worry, any stress
But also, anyone would guess
The ones that have alot are bad
And poor ones - good
And that is sad!
'Cause money, as any of things
They are from God to us, they're gifts!
And so, they should be well received
And used with wisdom, not with greed!
Money ain't bad, bad is the way
Some use it, always and today!
In fact the money isn't but
A mean of change, to give and get
And anytime I give away
To life, it all comes back my way!
You never should think thoughts of debt
Of guilt, or something about lack!
The money, just as any thing
Comes where it's wanted without need
As long you think you have enough
But love the money, it ain't tough!
They'll come your way, accept them though
Do not feel bad when you get more!
Remember, they are just a mean
And not a purpose, so stay clean!
They have to bring you things you love
And peace of mind, but be proud of
The fact that you can also give
Help others, share, so, you'll receive!


Hmmm the money...indeed a triky topic. I used to be really poor when I was growin up, actually, now that I am looking back, my life has been an ups and downs road in regards to money. When I was very little my parents did have quite enough money, but it was the communist regimen in our country, so even with money, there was not much you could buy. After the communists were kicked out, my father, like many of the people in that time, tried to make his own business, leaving his job and trying on his own. For a while we had even more money but then he ... failed. So he went bankrupt and we became quite poor. So I had to work since I was 16, giving private English lessons and doing translations and such, because I was not the type to be oky with no money! That is the time when I met the guy that is my hubby now, and I remember that for quite a long time we were very poor but very happy... so the happiness definitely does not depend on money, buuuut... you HAVE to be inlove! lol Otherwise it does depend!
At 22 I started my own business, and for quite a long time we had lots of money but I was basically workin my ass off so I didn't even get to take too much advantage of that money... also, they didn't bring me much happiness because in my frenzy of feeling high and powerful to make everyone feel good, I kept giving away and always saying "is okay, I will buy that for you" untill people became very annoyed and envious on me :( That was a shock for me but that is not the topic of this post.
After I became pregnant and had my baby, again, I could not work as much anymore (if at all) and also, I did not WANT to work anymore as I had gotten very fed up with my business, so we became quite poor again!
These things are not that important, but I am mentioning them because there is a pattern here... ups and downs, means something is not working right in my way of thinking and of seeing money!! And is true. I never really liked money, and that is okay, you can not like money per se, but you have to always say "thank you" for them and also, you have to never SAY that you don't like money! I was doing the right things otherwise, always giving away and being happy for the things I could buy to myself and to others but... the fact that I kept saying "I hate money, I don't like money" and so on, and not even wanting to have much to do with money, letting my husband handle them all and keeping them and paying for everything, made me/us loose them! I lost the ability of making them! For the moment, thankfully, because now, after I've read all these books and figured out which my mistake was, I am slowly getting back to where I was, financially. Only that the stupidity in my head caused debt that I have to pay now... oh well.
So, never ask why you don't have enough money, if you:
1. don't know how to receive money and be thankful and SAY "thank you" for them
2. talk bad about money and see them as dirty or as something you don't particulary like
3. don't share your money, that meaning, giving some of them each time you receive some (the babilonians were having a rule, as to give each 10% of any money they had, and they were the richest of civilisations in their time!).
4. hate people that have money, instead of being happy for them. I know, I know, that is very hard to do, but trust me, you HAVE to do it, and you have to do it sincerely, because after all, we are all one, in conscience, so... means that if they have, you have too! If not yet manifested in your life, your happiness and lack of hate will bring them to you!
Money are, like everything in this world, like every good thing, actually, a gift from God, and you have to receive them and thank for them and share them and love them and have a completely positive attitude in regards to them! Even if you have to pay debts or taxes, you have to stop complaining but just be happy and thankfyul that you HAVE the money to pay! And only that thought will put you on a higher frequency and will help you get more money, to pay for whatever you need!
It does not matter at all wether you are working your ass off, if you don't follow these rules, you will never have lots of money!
Also, it helps to always keep some money in your pocket/purse/wallet, and if you spend them, to make sure you put them back there when you get more, because knowing that you actually HAVE money with you, will also attract more to you! Knowing that if you would want to, you could buy anything, it just works wonders! I always try to do that when I go out, and trust me, it doesn't mean that I spend more, because some say "allright now that you have money you are gonna spend them, if you don't have, you can't spend" but NOPE! It doesn't work like that! When I have them in my pocket, I tend to be way more relaxed and picky and it's way less likely for me to spend that money or to get in a bad mood, than when I wouldn't have any... cause then I would start craving for things that I don't need, and I would go home and grab money and come back to buy, or even worse, I would borrow from someone!! Or even worse, I would get in the worst mood complainig that I need this and that and I don't have money to buy it - therefore getting the loest vibrational thoughts! It's like going into a food store with an empty stomach! You start eating even things that are not good for you, only because you see them and you are hungry! When you have eaten before goin out (have enough money in your pocket) then you can pick only what is good for you and take them home to cook or put them in your fridge!
Allright, I have been rambling enough on this topic, but it's because it is something that I know well about!
Good luck and lots of money to everyone!

Forgive!

 
 Forgive! And see the world with love
'Cause all is mastered from above
It's all God's plan, and for us all
We must make peace within our soul.
With all that was and that will be
Trust what you feel, your way must be
The one that you will walk upon
Even if sometimes you feel down
Or blocked, and nothing seems to work
The way you want, or you're berserk
It is all good, and everything
A higher good to you will bring.
Sometimes space's needed for the things
To just arrange themselves, your wings
To grow, they need some time
Breathe and the mountains you will climb!
Forgiving sets you free of pain
And frees the others too, from chain
Start with forgiving of yourself
What's bad in past, you should forget
For everyone, life will provide
The things they think of, they can't hide!
For that, you see, is useless to
Punish someone, you get the clue!
Forgiveness heals, so let go of
The pain inside and feel just love!
Like that the better things out there
Will come your way and lead you where
You need to be, in love and peace
And all the fight and hate will cease!

It was a big revelation to me when I read about forgiveness, in Louise Hay's books. I kind of knew that it was good to forgive and forget, because that I had been told in the Religion classes and  in the prayers that I had been taught, but, what I did not know, what didn't even have a clue about, was the fact that the first person to start with, must be YOU!! If you don't do that, it is useless to even try to forgive or love others unconditionally, it will.not.work! I realised how much suffering was producing in my own life the fact that I was not forgiving and accepting my own self. Actually I can very well say that this was the major cause of all my problems! I was not forgiving or accepting myself as I was! Once I started working on that, I was able to forgive all the others that I thought they did bad things to me, with or without their knowledge (that is less important). I must say that forgiving and accepting yourself the way you are can be quite hard, and you will have to keep working on it for a while (I still am) but is sooo worth it, trust me. It's incredible how many things will change to good, in your life, when you do that! Keeping bad feelings of blame and fear and guilt and other feelings of the kind, inside you, is like drinking poison every day and wondering why you are having stomach aches! Or why are you going insane. All that bargain is useless, actually the word "useless" is not describing it well, it is POISON for us! Let it all go, set yourself free, you are way more than the image that you or others have, about you. Way more! 
Besides, the people that did bad things to you without knowing, are not to be blamed too much, and the ones that did it with their knowing...well those are going to get hit by karma anyways! hehe! So let them be and be sure they will get it back to them, sooner or later, unless they ask for forgiveness.
Peace and wisdom to all!

Giving Is Healing




Giving is healing, it's good for us all
As long as it comes from deep in the soul
When you start to think of ways how you can
Help others, the magic began!
When you give with all of your heart
Means that you have, is the start
To getting good things back to you,
The Law of Attraction breaks through.
When you can just share what you've got
Means that you're grateful for that!
And no other thing makes you more powerfull
Than being grateful for all, is The Rule!
When you think of ways to serve and to give,
Then you have just opened yourself to receive!
You stop thinking bad thoughts, the energy grows.
Vibration gets higher, the magic just flows!
Try helping and serving the others that need
There's no separation, is YOU that you feed!
As long as you get the things that you want
But lock them in boxes and others you taunt
Then your life becomes like a big an' old pot
Full with stealth water, its bottom will rot!
When you keep on sharing the goods that you have
You are like a river, and not like a grave.
You stay all the time all fresh and alive
And worry of nothing, your wealth will survive!
That's really the way that life is arranged
It all has to come and to go, to be changed.
Whatever you try to attach to, will fade
Will make you unhappy, and you will feel strayed
Whatever it is: love, passion or things
Keep it flow through you, don't keep it in strings!
Whenever you give with whole heat, it is true
The good that you shared will return back to you!

For this post I was inspired by an article that I've just read, about this woman that was suffering of multiple sclerosis, and when she was desperated and depressed because of her disease, she received an advice from a friend who was telling her to try for 29 days to give somehting each day, to make a present to someone, doesn't matter how small or to whom, but just to give. The woman was suspicious at first but then she thought she'd give it a try, and after the 29 days she was feeling alot better, she had started to walk without any help, to use her hands again and to feel almost normal again. She had explained this by the fact that instead of continuously thinking about herself and her tragedy, feeling sorry for herself and dwelling into self pity, she instead switched focus to the others, and each morning she felt she had a reason to get outta bed, thinking about what she could do that day and for whom. Because of that, her mind became full with good thoughts and her body managed to recover itself. When you have thoughts of fear and speak and think about illness, you are only creating more of that into your life, because that is the vibration that you are on, and the Law of Attraction gives you more things that are on the same level of vibration. When you are on a higher vibration, that of love for others for example, you get good health and love back your way, because that is what the Law sends. Let alone the fact that when you give something, to a person that needs that thing, and is happy to receive it, and says Thank you! for it, sooner or later, usually sooner, you will receive more of that thing yourself! This I verified. But ONLY when you give to someone that knows how to receive! The Bible says that God loves the people that know how to give AND how to receive! I gave to people that I thought would be happy but they were not, for various reasons (usually envy towards me and bad feelings) and it was not the same thing. People that say thank you and seem happy but then when they get mad at you they throw the things back into your face are definitely not good receivers. Oh well. DO NOT give to such people, is useless for both of you! But when I gave to people that really appreciated and said Thank you with all their heart (strangers usually appreciate more than family, trust me!) then each and every time I received back. Some times it was money, sometimes clothes, I once gave some clothes away and the next day I received a new dress as a present, once I gave some cosmetics and then the next day or so I received a package with some nice skincare products from a friend. These are just a few examples, that were like revelations to me, knowing about the Law of Attraction. I was like OMG IT REALLY WORKS! And it does!!
So giving IS really receiving, and HEALING. Please try it! :)
Peace and love!

How To Get What You Want



To get whatever it is that you want
Is not hard at all, you don't have to haunt!
Just write down your wish, short and clear
Wish always for NOW, like it's here!
Don't use any words like "do not" or "no"
You should ask what you wish for,
Only so, it will show!
Then act like it's done, like the wish has come true
Imagine, and see it like it's next to you!
Be sure that is brought to you now, that is FAITH
As long as you trust God, he won't make you wait
The time that might pass it's only because
Your mind yells at you: "There's no Santa Claus!"
You have then to just allow your soul
To be happy like your wish just started to roll!
Thank God and be grateful, because as you know
By gratitude good amplifies, it's just so!
Be full of great trust, believe that you will
Receive what you've asked for, relax and just chill!
The doubt is bad energy, it only prevents
Good things to come your way, and slows the events!
Another smart thing that you'd better do
Is keeping the secret, give others no clue!
Because some might tell you that it is no good
If you dream so big, and will ruin your mood!
Odd things can also arise, but be sure
It's all for a reason, is nothing obscure
Use intuition to choose wrong from right
Keep peace deep inside you, there's no need to fight!
Wish with all heart, and the light that's inside
The harmony feeling, will bring what you like!

Watching the other day the documentary "The Law of Resonance" inspired me... There was this list of 15 things there, that you have to do, in order to have your wishes come true. I must admit I haven't tried it yet, I mean I did but not exactly as they say, because it is hard to get to the level of having complete faith that you are gonna receive something you are asking for, when for so long you have been taught that you don't really deserve much, let alone everything you wish! So I am still working at getting past this limitation in my mind, I am woking actually at getting past my mind! But that's another story.
Anyways, here are the steps they recommend:

1. Start with small wishes.
2. Always write down your wish.
3. Make your wish clear and short.
4. Always wish at the present moment, like it's actually happening NOW.
5. Eliminate the words "no" and "do not", or "any", for that matter.
6. Concentrate only on what you DO want, not on what you DO NOT want.
7. Act like your wish already came true.
8. Visualise in a creative way, fill your whole being with your wish.
9. Be convinced that it is coming true NOW.
10. Rejoice in anticipation because like this, the brain produces endorphines (the hormones of happiness)
11. Thank God, be grateful, because through gratitude, the good amplifies.
12. Be faithul that what you are wishing for, will be given to you, because doubt is bad energy, while faith is an incredibly powerful good energy.
13. Keep the secret, don't tell others, except for the ones that you know FOR SURE that will support you 100%.
14. Be open to unpredicted things, because they always happen for a very good reason.
15. Follow your intuition! That means doing whatever gives you a feeling of harmony and of well being.
Also, speaking on the same topic, Dr. Waybe Dyer was adding the fact that you do not have to actually NEED the thing that you are wishing for. Because if you NEED something means that you are too attached to it, and getting attached to things is bad. It does not lead to happiness. You have to be happy with what you have and with where you are NOW, to start with, and only then you will be able to receive what you wish for. It makes sense, when you think about the fact that not being happy NOW means that you only consider the present moment like a means to take you to the future...and time is not the answer to peace and happiness...time doesn't even exist, is a creation of our mind. All we have is NOW, the present. If we are aligned and happy or at least at peace with the present, we can create anything, we are safe.

Hopefully we will all manage to do all this and have our wishes come true, because we all deserve the best in this life, it's only up to us to be open and ready to receive it!
Peace to all!

When things are scary



When things are scary all around
Just keep your feet down on the ground
Don't think too much about what's bad
Try keep things quiet in your head
Feel all the energy inside you
The inner body, the life in you
Be here and now, but without judging
Or calling things by names, no tagging!
Get your attention on your breathing
That's all that matters, only being!
You'll find the space inside of you
That creates all there is, all new!
What happens outside, you should know
Is an illusion, just a show
Is nothing good or bad, it IS!
It all depends on how you please!
And how your mind decides to see
The things for you, so you're not free!
Make peace inside you, stop the fight
Against the present moment's fright!
If you just let it all exist,
Will go right through you, don't get pissed!
As long as you don't act like rocks
But just like water, it all flows
And you will be at peace and well
And torments vanish like a spell!
The more you will resist to things
The more you'll be tied down in strings!
Once you will learn to be at ease
With everything, you have the keys
To happiness and peace and joy
It is all well, life is your toy!

The other day I was waiting outside of a doctor's office to get in for a checkup, because I've had some issues lately that were quite scary for me, and I was getting panicked. I always get highly panicked at the docs, because that's how I was raised, to be afraid of these "monsters". When I was little, I was being told that if I wouldn't eat I would get in the hospital, if I don't get more thick clothes I will be given shots and so on... and well, of course that starting with these ideas, my experiences with doctors, as well as my family's experiences, were not the most pleasant. I only see now that it was all because the Law of Attraction really works! What you believe, what you speak, you attract!
But that's not what I wanted to talk about. I wanted to tell you that sitting there and getting scared, my heart started ponding and that scared me even more because I was at the Cardiologist so it was to my best interest that my heart acted nice so she won't get me to do more checkups and more nasty stuff, as pills and such, lol. So, I was like... OMG what am I gonna do??? So I remembered what I read ... and I tried to just concentrate my attention on the inside of me, and not on anything external, like the clinic hallway, the white robes, my ideas, nothing. I tried feeling my inner body and the energy inside me, I concentrated on breathing, and I just realised all of a sudden that it was nothing as bad as I thought. Thinking, when it causes you to feel pain inside, is bad. Thinking is only good when you wanna do something that leads to a good thing for yourself and others. Temporarily "disconnecting" my thinking process was healing. My heart stopped ponding and I felt safe and "at home". I don't know if this makes sense, you'll have to probably read "A new Earth" or "The Power of Now" by Eckhart Tolle to understand what the hell I am talking about. After this, I could just become present. I was all "here and now" I was seeing things only as they were, without attaching the tag of "scary" to the nurse, the tag of "cold and unwelcoming" to the hallway, the tag of "scared to death by what the doc might say" to myself and so on. I just lived  things as they were. The nurses were just people passing by, the hallway was just a hallway in a building, the doctor was just a person that had gone to a school and was practicing whatever she had learned there, to make a living, and so on. Nothing was a monster anymore. Thank God for that! :)
So practicing the "presence" does work, people!
Only that, what people usually don't pay attention to when reading these books, or maybe some do, I don't know, is that the authors do tell you that it is hard...very hard to keep being present, especially after living for so many years being... drifted away by the thinking! But if you manage to live being present all the time, you are freakin saved! Disconnect your crazy mind, keep it handy only to use in case of need, and just BE, just exist, be aware of everything that happens without seeing it through your own experience! Let it just exist!
Peace!

Competing

If you feel always like competing
It gets you tired only thinking!
Is good to be the best and win
But if you need that, to be seen
It's bad already, 'cause in life
You'll fail at times, it's like a knife
That has 2 blades:
One is the win
And there's the fail, always has been!
Just learn that each of us is good
At something, and when in the mood
And set on it
You can move seas
But if it's over, it's unease!
The main concern should be for you
To always do what you wann' do
And what you love!
No pride involved,
No ego, and no other word!
Just feel the love for what you're up to
And life will be the best, it has to!
Always competing gets you ill
And you will loose your love, your thrill!
There's just one you, you're like noone
Noone is like you, you're a sun!
Each person is, has light inside
And should let all of it shine bright!
Noone is  better as a whole
Or worse in life, it's about soul!
So be yourself! And good or bad
Is just a thinking, and is mad!
You are no word, you are no tag
You are unique, so please, don't brag!


Sooo. All my life untill a while ago, I was convinced that I was born to compete. Even worse, I was convinced life was all about fighting against others, fighting to be the best, otherwise you just stop existing! My parents, actually my grandmother, cause she and grandpa raised me because my parents were working and had no time, taught me that I HAD to be the best in my classroom, otherwise "your mom will be ashamed" (that's what my grandma was telling me a few times a day) or that, "everyone will laugh at you" and so on. I cringe only when I remember! What incredibly bad ideas to live upon!!! What does this mean, then, that if I was the best, and fighting my ass off to stay the best, all the others were failures? Noones? Nothings? Even if I was not a mean child, (actually, I was very shy and introverted), I somehow felt above the others and better than them, because I could have all the good grades and be the "class chief" and so on. Even if I was, on the other hand, feeling very sperated and put aside because of all that. At times I was crying because I wanted so much to be careless and free like all the other children, to be allowed to stay out as long as they did, to go wherever they did, and to know all of the games they knew because they were spending more time together instead of staying home and learning for school. I felt so left out.
Don't get me wrong, I am not mad (anymore!) at my folks for raising me like this (although I have been for a long time), I know now that they did what they could and that's all they could, with the brain they had at that time and with their own background... but this was so very wrong for me. I am glad I've been through all this though, so I know now how to raise my kid, at least from this point of view!
Later, while after I had rebelled against them and left home (I maybe will post about this sometimes too), I kept living in the same way, I felt the need to be the best, the best looking in my group of friends, the happiest, the most smiling, the most careless, the best dancer, the one to have the best job and earn the most money, the best in my job and so on. And all this almost killed me. Because it is great to be the best, especially when it does not take too much effort for you to do that and you realise that you can do easy some things that others can't, even when striving, but after a while, especially when you are not 20 years old anymore... there will be others that are just like you or maybe better at all that, and younger and with more energy, and you, if you only see yourself as your success... realise that you start crumbling, as a person. Because the image of yourself that you build for you and for the others was that of a success (that brought lots of envy too), not the one of a real person with good and bad sides. So you start to suffer. And start to fight as hard as you can to stay the best. You ignore important parts of yourself and your life for that. But you can't anymore, so you become desperate. And as no success comes from desperation, you get even lower. You start hating the things you once loved. You start hating yourself, you start feeling ugly and old and ignored and all the bad things. All of that because all you knew was that you only deserve to be loved for the things you DO. Loved by YOURSELF and THE OTHERS only for the things that you DO, not for what you ARE. And that lead me to depression. I was feeling useless, hopeless, beyond tired, worthless and bad from all points of view. Besides, the persons that knew me as successful and happy and full of life and were envious all of this time, now started to say things like "see, you were not invincible after all".... or "see, you shouldn't have bragged, cause you are not all that, after all" (even if I dont think I ever bragged...). And what hurt most was that these persons were from my family (extended family), but people I thought they were good to me and nice and real friends! Apparently you can't have any real friend when you are only an image, a picture ... a perfect picture worth a million bucks, but not a real person. And according to the Law of Attraction, if you think you only worth what you can do, you will attract people that think the same way and see you exactly like that. Only a DO'er!
I am glad that my husband was not one of those persons, otherwise I don't know where I'd be today... He didn't help me too much but he didn't put me down either. He did try his best to help me, but not everyone can help a person in such a situation, I think you need to really be a shrink for that ...
So, as I was struggeling like that, having ups and downs, times when I was getting back on top and times when I was getting sick of tireness and bad thoughts, I was lucky one more time, because I got pregnant and had my baby. And he fixed my life big time! How? By not even allowing me to THINK about being able to compete in my job and life anymore! LOL Brutal but amazing! I remember a smart woman once saying "a baby puts your life in amazing order" and she was so right! Besides, having a baby, becoming a mama, gave me some sense of value (not as much as it should, as I was broken from that point of view) but enough to help me go by at that time... kind of.
There were bad times again, because, as I was prone to this, I had times when I felt I was not a good mother, and there were enough people around me who tried to make me think that (same people that were all for loving someone when they continually DID things for them, never for just existing), and so on...but that will make the topic for another blog post. I feel sorry for these people actually, because it is clear to me that they are unhappy and they don't love themselves either. But is not my problem, really!
Basically, after quite a while and after reading all my books, Louise Hay, Dr. Wayne Dyer, Eckhart Tolle and so on, I finally managed to start loving myself as I am, allowing myself to be imperfect, I realised that I am actually worth loving and that I am not a bad person at all (we are ALL good, basically, only the EGO makes us bad), and I can't even begin to tell you what a relief that was for me. I even got rid of my annoying acne that I've been fighting with for years! In Louise Hay's book "You Can Heal Your Life" there is a part where she says that acne is caused at times (most often) because you don't love yourself as you are. And in my case she was so right on the ...spot! :)
So, that is the conclusion, parents, please don't make your children grow thinking their only worth is that of what they achieve, and that they always have to be better than others. A child has to be comfortable with being who he is, has to KNOW that he is being loved even when he fails at something, as long as he tried to do it right, he doesn't have to fear that he or she won't be loved/accepted anymore if he/she fails at something or doesn't have this or that talent, skill or beauty or who knows what else. Cause it will cause big big problems for them later in life, like it caused me.
Compete for the pleasure of participating, but never think you are a looser if you don't win! There's no such thing as "loosers". We are all here with a purpose, we are all here to help each other and to understand that we are basically the same, there is no comparison, because we are all basically soul and conscience wrapped up in human form, and the form will eventually be gone, so isn't it stupid to torment your soul for something that won't last anyways? We are souls that have been forever and will be forever, we should not be condemned by our egos to suffer in this life and in any life whatsoever!
I should stop before I start saying nonsense :)
Peace and wisdom to all!

Like What You Do - Do What You Like!


A very old but very wise man
Once taught us all about this smart plan:
"If you must do a thing, regardless
You better like it", or it's useless!
He meant that either you can do
The things you like, and then it's good
Or if you have to work for money
And do something that's not too funny
You have to try and find the good
Part in the bad.
And so you should!
Because the purpose of this life
Is to be happy, not to strive!
And if you live your life by doing
Things that you hate, you'll end up ruined!
So, please, it has to be a thing
That's not so bad about your gig!
They say the wiser man will change
Whatever is he can't arrange
But also, the wise man he will
Accept what he can't change, untill
Life will just give him something fine
But sometimes we must wait in line!
Only when you are happy with
Al that you have, will stop the writhe!
And then you'll get more better things
Because you attract what you live!
You live in peace and being thankful,
And you will get more things to bless you
You wanna fight against the life
And it will cut you like a knife! 
And always, think about the fact
That others have it really bad!
And things can always be way worse
So say "thank you" and do not curse!


Wow this one is long :)) I just love makin poems about the things I'm learning!! Everything inspires me! I love it!
Anyways, the idea here is the thing that I've just discovered, that you CAN make your job pleasant. I've spent years complaining and moaning and cussing at my job, and of course, my income became lower and lower all this time! When I started my business years ago, seemed so good and fun, because I had more energy and a more youthful way of looking at life at that moment, I think! But then it became hell! Other people interfered and lead me to feeling like this about it, too. But I cannot blame them, I should have just not listened, I should have just not let them dictate how I felt and what I wanted to do with my life! But I did... and Im glad I finally woke up :) After striving for a good amount of time to get back at least to half of the enthusiasm I used to have about my job/business, I finally managed to figure out a way. I won't get into details because they are irrelevant, for everyone can be different, there are millions of different jobs and businesses in this world, so each and every person should know about theirs. But, people, what I wanna tell you is: IT WORKS! If you want to, you can get back to liking the thing you have to do! I still don't like everything about it again, maybe not even half of it, but I still managed to get a big chunk of my good attitude towards it, back! Which is awesome because I already started to see income improvement!! 
In the books that I've read they say that once you LIKE your actual job, the Universe is more open to providing you with an even better job, one that you really are draming of! But only if you are thankful and happy with what you already have! Now, we shall see about that, but the important thing is that I am not unhappy anymore! :) I figured out how to do it and like it, I put myself in my shoes from 10 years ago and I started to feel good about it again! I am very thankful for that!
Now, of course, in my case, I am lucky, because I actually used to like my job...while ago, but maybe some people have to do jobs they hate from the beginning, and that is even more sad :( But even then, you have to try and find a little thing or two that are not that bad in it. And that applies to just about any situation in life ... after all, all bad things lead to good, sooner or later!
I wish one day my blog would get popular so I have people talking to me and telling me about their experiences in this case.
Allright, I think I said what I wanted to say for today! 
Peace, people! :)
