Halfway House-by Zoran
***************************

Sitting here three years over thirty,
Still working daily on the keyboard qwerty.
Maybe halfway through my days,
What inspirational achievements are left yet to raise?

I've always strived for something more,
Wont have a boss to show me the door.
Working daily for myself,
Stressing to find a staggering wealth.

My thoughts consumed with money and work,
Until I slow down then inspiration wont lurk.
What is it though that I must achieve?
Why does it matter? Relax, trust and believe.

Contemplating my journey, what path should I take?
To the left inspiration, to the right a mistake.
Inspirational achievements that I want to raise,
Wont be found in my heads obsessional daze.

My mind to remain clear, focused and pure.
No longer I fight I've nothing to cure.
Of course I must work to earn money to live,
Yet the balance of life will allow me to give.

Inspirational achievements from this day on,
No need to stress nor look, there's only half my life gone.
If true I'm half way through my days,
Inspiration will find me, with one of lifes many ways.
 
Who am I? 07/14/2010
 
Who am I? - by Julie
************************
I, am not my thoughts
My mind has a mind of it's own
I watch my thoughts pass through
One, by one, by one.
Who am I?
 
If not my thoughts, then who am I?
I've learned to observe, but not interact
Thoughts are thoughts that's all!

No longer does my racing mind
Take me past and future.
I am HERE - right NOW
Awake, concious, present!
But......Who am I?
 
M.E. 'This Silent Illness'
IT can teach me who I am
It gives me time......
I meditate....I contemplate.
Wherever I go, I am fully there.
What is MY way?
Who am I?
 
I am more mindful in all I do
I see the world now through different eyes
Where was I before?
I missed so much:
beauty, wonder, joy and love
Who am I?
 
I am beginning to know,
But not completely yet.
I am energy
I am life
I am whole
I am love
I am me! 

 
My Test 07/14/2010
 
My Test - by Zoran
***********************
All I put my mind to do,
I strive to do my best.
When obstacles obstruct me,
They're nothing but a test.

When these tests come to press,
The button in my mind. 
I will search within my soul,
for what I have to find.

I have realised with these tests,
lie answers to succeed.
Worry is not needed,
only trust we must believe!

 
 
Why Change? 07/14/2010
 
Why Change? - by Zoran
*****************************
Listen up dear friends, to why it is I changed.
My brain it felt like mash potato, constantly derranged.
I'd hit myself with all my might,
gaining peace to help me sleep at night.

My mind I counld'nt take control,
A husband? A father? yet I had no role.
No longer warm hearted now out of control,
With satan inside me exchanged for my soul.

I love my family, Why do they love me?
I ignored and shouted, "daddy please dont scare me".
I seen their face and felt disgraced,
Of how I made them feel.
My life, what life? get a life!
Pinch me this ain't real.

The noise so loud I could'nt see,
What life I had ahead. 
If I don't find whats deep inside,
They're better off I'm dead!!

My past I nurtured like a child,
Failing to let go.
It's poison spread infectious hate,
What next? I die or grow!

I could'nt die I had to grow,
My wife, my kids, I'll never let go.
The warmth, the love, the peace I feel,
 Lifes wheel turns quickly, no longer sureal.

I've opened up for all to see,
Why changing was a must for me.
Now is time for you to face that reflection in the mirror,
Fight until you kill your beast, Love life and be a winner.
