Speak Life

Image
I look at the world and see how much I’m inspired by everything. Sometimes the bad things can teach you something good, and the good things can teach you something bad. It’s all about how you view something and the effect you let it have on you. But life is beautiful. Its beauty shines so bright I can’t let words affect me, and you shouldn’t either. Love is the answer, and it’s always the guide. Some say you’re before your time, but I say you’re right on time, for what you bring is what someone now needs. And because it’s only you that can give that, you’re right on time. But because life seems to move so fast, at times you never get to process how great you are and how on time you truly are. Truthfully, there’s no reason to rush. When you rush, it dims your light and drains your battery, making you feel less, then you begin to question your time. But as I said, you’re right on time. Sometimes it’s just the soul telling you to slow down so it can process, offer a...

Exile

  The Journey Within A s I sit and reflect upon the world, I see how silver and gold have killed the purpose, how people are blinded by the knowledge of wealth in front of them, but not the wisdom that lives within. Seeing how many people seek wealth through money rather than purpose motivated me to write this, because the essence of life is within us. We just have to create that space for the light to shine and guide us. Create space within your soul for knowledge to understand the wisdom of life, for wisdom is with you. But until you open the heart and allow the dark spaces to be filled with light, you will be lost. Ask, and it shall be given to you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it shall be opened to you. The journey is yours. It all begins with you. You cannot expect to receive what you ask for if you have not opened yourself to receive it. You have been seeking, and it is there yet blinded by what lies before you. Take a breath. Look within. Cea...

As Within, So Without

Image
I was thinking about how we grow from children into adults and forget the joy we once knew. The child within us knows pure happiness, and we must return to heal them from the traumas of life. It is the joy I feel when I look back on all the beautiful things I once did that gives me the inspiration to put these words forth, to help others, for it is where life all begins, with the breath of life, and that is where life will end, with the breath of life. A s it was in the beginning  so shall it be in the end As peace was found in a child  so shall a man find peace within  as he seeketh out that child  and in the seeking, understanding begins For don’t you know,  when one door is closed  another is open  but you won’t see it  if you aren’t open for it So be wise  Do not cry  Open your heart  and let space come within For when the heart is closed  love fades  and in its absence  hate takes root  leading one  dow...

Riverborn Sage

Image
While working one day I met a lady at my job who shared her love for painting, and it stood out to me deeply because I also produce art in written form. As we spoke about art, the love expressed alone showed how much life we carried within us and how much we had to give. Feeling inspired, I asked her to paint something influenced only by my words, my actions, and who I am. What she created was a beautiful piece filled with meaning, and interpreting the life within her work inspired me to write this piece in return. I n the depths of Jamaica a boy sat still while the river spoke Water carried stories Lignum Vitae poured life and birds stitched joy into the air with songs older than names Then came a woman woven of wisdom smiling, singing passing like memory on sand He called out She looked once said everything in four words Young man, you’re a sage And walked on Confusion lingered but the river kept moving So did he carrying the seed of knowing without yet knowing Time unfolded One day ...

If Time Were Real

Image
As I was in Costa Rica, the way people live stood out to me tremendously. It showed me a way of life where  people continue to move forward, not in a rush, but in rhythm with what life is doing around them. They accepted everyone, and they lived with a sense of peace that came from understanding something simple yet profound. The essence of time is beyond our control. All we truly have is the moment. So, they express love by simply being who they are. I f time were real you’re in New York and London is five hours ahead, why don’t we just call and ask what’s happening in the future? Wouldn’t it be beautiful if it were that easy? Life is simple, but it is not easy. The beauty lives in simple things, like waking up each day and seeing the sun shine. A place with no routine, no schedule. A life beyond the physical, beyond what most can imagine. But there is a place. A place without clocks, without schedules, where people move with the day, letting it carry them where it may, creating s...

Roots and Blessings

Image
Sitting in stillness, I realize how blessed we are. Looking past the noise of technology and seeing the ones who do the groundwork, whether under the hot sun or in the rainstorm. They find joy in their purpose, giving love through the work of their hands, providing not just for themselves but for all of us. Thinking of the farmers something touched my soul, and I felt called to write this in appreciation. A reminder that they give from love, not for likes. Showing that love is the healing of the world and it is where we all must return, for it is where we will find true purpose in what to do. S ometimes people say farmers not special. But they are special to me. They made me who I am, so I cannot lose my way. They support the rich and the poor, never biased, feeding the children good food, making them big and strong. They introduce the little ones to sweet fruit, better than any candy, and give them bush tea, better than medication, healing the nation through the powers of Mother Natur...
