Sabbath
No matter who or where
As long as there is air
Life often requires
Respite from our desires
We deserve a day of peace
Letting what’s relentless cease
Recharge cells relax mind
Give ourselves a taste of kind
Time to sit and cogitate
Reflect on your state of state
Time to take a big time-out
Ask yourself what’s life about
Refreshing body mind and soul
Time to make yourself whole
Connect with universal mind
Clear up places that do bind
Renewed clear back in the chase
Ready for a chosen race
If you keep going without stop
You will hit a wall and drop
Take some needed Sabbath time
Help make your life sublime
Memories of peaceful rest
Will help conquer your next quest
Do you have renewal practices in your life?
Do they provide enough or do you need to supplement them?

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.
