Connection

Every action has a reaction 💜

Freedom, like the push and pull of the tide.

Give and take, make no mistake.

All in order, all in connection.

Whispers of the ocean breathing in and out like a

pulsing heart, gentle rhythmic motion, powerful.

Every breath connects to the next, like the sun rise and sun set.

Connect to the source of life to experience true freedom.

Let it flow, your truth and your passion, delight.

Forgive quickly, being slow to anger, peace.

In times of trouble, be reassured, look up.

In times of joy, count your blessings, give thanks.

Life is a blessing, appreciate it all.

Compassion to all, is fair, live and let live.

Remove any judgment, it reflects on you.

Humble yourself, learn to tame ego and pride.

Don’t let jealousy, ruin you or your life.

Don’t dwell on the past or live in the future.

Love one another, in truth and honesty.

Endings

It no longer serves you,

close the door,

don’t look back.

Respect you,

say goodbye.

Life is short,

make it count.

Live each day,

yay the cliché;

like the last.

Make a stand,

speak your truth

with conviction.

Don’t even sweat

the reaction.

Done is done.

You have all the answers;

to all that troubles you,

you know what to do.

Don’t let fear mislead

your judgment.

Fear misguides,

disguises solutions.

You know for sure,

be still and know.

Life

Life is a gift

Life is precious.

Life is abundant,

continual growth.

Life has no limits

Life is for living.

Life is forgiving,

continual chances.

Life is a blessing

Life is a moment.

Life is eternal,

continual essence.

Life isn’t easy

shouldn’t be wasted.

Life has its setbacks,

Life has its joys;

wonder and awe.

Life can change,

all in an instant

appreciate it all.
