Stress
Stress not good for your constitution
Whatever you want not the solution
Mind spinning teeth grinding stomach in knots
Doesn’t serve health or manifest wants
Fine line between tension and stress
Torque of tension draws to happiness
Tension propels pushes you toward
Stress freezes in a tight wad
How do you tell where is the line
What will you do in overtime
Why is the action technique tool
Beyond distress and being the fool
Are you progressing toward your goals
Or stuck in the mud just digging holes
Wheels spinning you’re over the line
Time to slow down rest drink some wine
Find the solution that works for you
Slows your process and sees you through
Tension provides torque and traction
Reward you’re back enjoying the action!
Can you feel tension drawing you forward when vision is out of alignment with where you are?
Can you feel the destruction of stress?

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.
