Integrity
Congruent within without
Integrated presence toes to shout
Powerful gait and voice
It is never a choice
Not about image strategic vision
How you live clarity precision
End of day finish labor
Lie down rest warmth to savor
Who you are what you do and say
Your word a bond honor each day
Called upon feed the poor
Nurture who walks in your door
Living from inside out
Heart your guide no twist or shout
Your truth and belief
Vow and action brings relief
No mercenary ambition
Dedicated to your mission
Nearing end look back reflect
Lived your dream no repent
Does your life aspire to the poetic aspirations?
Can you live more from the inside out of your integrity?

I have always been a seeker, always looking for the answers to what seekers ponder. I can remember Dr. Maxwell Maltz and Psychocybernetics; Dr. Carl Rogers On Becoming a Person. Moving through my legal training and practicing law the focus was always about people and how to better their lives. All that searching, reading, studying and introspective work culminated in this collection of daily readings for seekers.
My work in the world has progressed from fighting legal cases to mediating divorces to helping people understand the essentials of relationship and collaborating to these poems. How can we collaborate effectively and work with each other in harmony to create the world we seek. How can we mindfully enable this world to become a place that works for all.
My prayer is that through introspection using these poems as a guide we can all grow together in making the world the Heaven on Earth we all aspire toward.
