Priorities
What’s first what’s last
Important abiding fizzles fast
Gets attention amid the calling
What is rising what is falling
Demands presence object of focus
Holds you tight it its locus
Provides satisfaction and returning
Heart longs with your yearning
Rings a bell in a discerning mind
Fades with distance left behind
You’ve answered the above
Pointings to things you love
May I suggest being bold
Smart as you grow old
Periodically inquire ask
Keep around not likely last
Important for you to know
Fill life with what makes you glow
Fill your days with delight
Sleep soundly and rest well at night
Surrounded by people that make you glow or do you have sorting to do?
What would life be like if you were surrounded by that inspiration?

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.
