Lessons
Here for lessons on earth
Enjoy blessings and mirth
Acquire knowledge learn stuff
Find balance what’s enough
Pure spirit experiences bliss
Little impinges on perfectness
In bodies understand
Emotions limits frustrations grand
Choose incarnation in body
Experience often quite shoddy
Learn being trapped inside
Challenging vehicle how to drive
Next deal with brain
Master an intelligence game
Hormones drive us insane
Conundrums creating shame
At last some control
Just in time growing old
Flits by quickly spark of living
Choose compassion be forgiving
What lessons did you come for?
Is life providing what you need to learn and who to learn with?

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.
