(From my book of Aphorisms- 'Thoughts To Make You Think' By Helen Leigh - http://thoughtstomakeyouthink.doomby.com   - Chapter One - Personal Development) Don't Work If You Don't Get Paid. (energy, emotions, people, situations)

From my book of Aphorisms- 'Thoughts To Make You Think' By Helen Leigh - http://thoughtstomakeyouthink.doomby.com   - Chapter One - Personal Development)   As a discipline, ask yourself if thinking what you are thinking; giving you a Positive (giving you energy, going somewhere) or a Negative (draining your energy, going no where) We exist beyond our thoughts or 'Status' - : Who am I? (unanswerable fear question) We are energy; feeling... When you were a baby, you didn't know who you were, yet you existed; and experiencing life... In an Orgasm, do you care who you are or even that you have a body?..:) .... (pleasure) You exist and continue to be Who You Are without having to tell yourself or anyone else who you are; and so you are Energy, … Because you are energy, you are directed by FEELING, And You will be led by where ever you Tell yourself to go. You have the 'freedom' to Think.. This freedom is given to you, so dire...

In the journey you ride alone, I am the mist that follows behind. When the world gets really loud, I'll be the quiet in your mind. When your vibrant like a star, I'll be watching with a smile, You can sit in peace with me, And you can rest for awhile. I will be the rock you lay, Your foundation down, You can build your home on me, And I will be your ground. You can feel safe to know, When your shining like the Sun, I will cherish who you are, In 'Reflecting Horizons'. For all the times you sacrificed, And the silent tears you shed, For the conditional love, That left you for dead. I will always be listening, With an unconditional heart, I will protect you like the little ones, To walk your glory path. You can lay your foundation, Down upon me, You can build a solid home, And your ground I will be, You can feel safe to know, When your shining like the Sun, I will always be here, 'Reflecting Horizons'.

Moonlight lit the cold night air, And showed the face of true despair, Was such a girl embodied there, The girl with the Raven hair. She sat upon the seat and wept, While the winds they blew for her bereft, And revealed that there was nothing left, The girl with the Sparrow breast. With tear filled eyes soaked hopeless face, She looked up from the deep disgrace, And begged to change with nights embrace, The girl with the Robins gaze. At once the chill had left the air, Clouds parted way and a Star appeared, To let her know that someone's there, For the girl with the Raven hair.

And there I lay, my back touching the Earth, And I looked up, and Three Huge Trees were before me, Like the three fingers of God, Touching the Earth, Touching my Being... And the Awesomeness of these Finger Trees, Humbled me in their Magnificence, As they shook and hissed with the dancing breeze.

(from - Life and Lessons Poetry By Helen Leigh) 'Bliss'   Sun Warmed Cheeks Tasting Salty Lips Listening to the Ocean Smelling Sun Tan Lotion Soft Sand Under Both Hands Stinging Eyes Salty and Tired A Sigh A Smile Sleep For Awhile 'Bliss 2' Looking up at the clear blue sky The fragrant scent of Daisy Grass Earth Scratchy towel under bare skinned body The buzz of a passing Bee A tickle on your knee you look A Fly Shake it off Close back your eyes A sigh A smile Sleep for Awhile

(from - Life and Lessons Poetry By Helen Leigh) No matter how bad your life is No Money, No Home Alone 20 cents left on your cell phone If you can dance in the shower Using the soap as a microphone Singing at the top of your lungs splashing for an hour Then, Life is Good. No matter how bleak your life looks No Health, No Rest Stressed Wondering what misfortune will happen next If you can dance in the Kitchen Using the Cupboard door as a dance partner Singing at the top of your lungs Serenading the Vege-Mix Tin Then Life is Good. If you can sing to your Cats Dance around in your Flat Putting on the biggest show Using the furniture as props for your Acts Then you know.... Life is good.

(From my book of Aphorisms- 'Thoughts To Make You Think' By Helen Leigh - http://thoughtstomakeyouthink.doomby.com   - Chapter One - Personal Development) If you truly want to make changes to yourself, you have to hold a future projection of who you want to be. Keep holding this projection; the feelings you want, the attitude you want, the way you want to be. Let those around you that don't like this fall away and keep holding your projection. 'It is said that one day the Buddha was walking through a village. A very angry and rude young man came up and began insulting him. “You have no right teaching others,” he shouted. “You are as stupid as everyone else. You are nothing but a fake!” The Buddha was not upset by these insults. Instead he asked the young man, “Tell me, if you buy a gift for someone, and that person does not take it, to whom does the gift belong?” The young man was surprised to be asked such a strange question and answered, “It woul...
