Trust

i close my eyes and I See
i am silent and I Speak Volumes
i throw away and I Bring Abundance
i react selfishly and I Act Selfless 

i blame and I Forgive
i feel heavy with fear and I am Light with Peace
i detach and I Connect 

i go within and I Radiate Out
i believe and I Know

The Runner

All my life I've been this way; when things get tough I refuse to stay. 

I shift searching for comfort and content; a change to heal the pain is my sole intent.  

But though it takes time my new found happiness begins to slow; the anxiety and unease follow me wherever I go. 

New school, new State, new job, new Country, new love; this has to be it, I pray to Anyone above. 

Yet it's me alone who needs to learn to be happy; and not allow my Heart, Head or feet twicht when I start to feel crappy. 

It's hard to accept that my expectations are too high; things will not always be easy but that's not a reason to fly. 

My search is over, here is where I will remain; things will not always be perfect but I refuse to run again.

The Choice

A hurt lion is dangerous.
A jealous lion is dangerous.
A playful lion is dangerous.
A hungry lion is dangerous. 
A scared lion is dangerous.
A happy lion is dangerous.
A confused lion is dangerous. 

An ordinary lion does not realize the danger it poses, it is only being a lion.
An aware Lion can choose when being dangerous is wise, and understands the responsibility of its inherent power.
