Quest
Clean clear vibration no static or goop
No wings flapping in your inner coop
Inquiry’s over searching ceased
Effort quieted your hungry beast
Longing midwifed ground searched for
To get there opening door after door
Reverberating thoughts in your brain
Kept you questing till no doubts remain
When you decided your choices made
Thru the misgivings and sense of shame
Who did you hurt what did you let go
In pushing forward having to grow
Goal of the effort expanding your health
Did you let go and move to new wealth
Can you slip into new skin with ease
No wake or displacement does this pool please
Lying down at the end of long days
Can you grin knowing you’ve come thru haze
Carrying forward are you without remorse
As growing confidence keeps you on course
When you say yes to the above
You earn knowing nods from forces of love
Let faith and wisdom continue your ride
As you enjoy gliding with pride
What have you given up in search of integrity for what rewards?
Any advice for others who followed their heart at great personal cost?

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.
