Comfortable silence

You know you have a great friend, when silence becomes part of the mix, 
You don’t have to argue or look for anything to discuss when aiming to fix.

Silence is a humble feeling 
Being quiet is not depriving anyone to look to be stealing.

Silence is relaxing 
Silence is comforting too,
Silence is a respect of distance 
Silence doesn’t need to include resistance.

Silence is relaxing
And not everyone has to speak, 
The chaos in our overactive minds relax us to prevent our talking to reach a peak.

The 12 Steps… (A.A.programme)

I had to learn the steps but step ‘1’ was the one I truly needed,
The saying I was powerless to alcohol, or the addiction which got a hold of me,
Now I am recovering and exposed to a new world to see. 

You see, the damage was done 
I couldn’t cope no more, 
To be fair others were powerless too 
As I was wallowing in addiction and the depths of a struggle I was unable to undo. 

22 months on, I am a new man
No head has been removed from my shoulders, just a clear way to see things, 
Life on life terms, and all that sort of different challenges which the world brings.

I recommend this life to anyone today, 
Your higher power shall allow you to stay, 
Away from the addiction,
Away from the trials these situations possess,
You are deserving of a new life and nothing ever less. 

If you are prepared to work then give  this a go, 
You will see the light of a new life, so put in the work regardless how fast and slow.

Your higher power

What does the higher power mean to you?
A chance
A gift
A requirement of a spiritual lift.

For me it’s life as it ought to be,
In your higher power you will find happiness, contentment and the place you should be able to see.

The higher power simply provides
It shall provide you with an awakening to say you are humbly alive.

Forget materialism and all that sort of thing,
It’s a spiritual blessing we look to seek and then sing. 

Bless you body, heart and mind,
The example of the higher power offers is the gifts which shouldn’t become blind.

Keep showing up…

Keep showing up 
That’s all you can do,
 A step at a time, life shall present itself with a plethora of clues.

Keep showing up
Life on life terms shall pertain,
Live for this moment, it’s only prayer which can sustain.

Find the strength from within
Speak to God through a prayer,
Nothing else can hurt us anymore, once God falls into our domain.

One day at a time 
So keep showing up, that’s all we have got,
Say a prayer or meditate to start your day,
As all negativity shall leave us.. just for today.

Go to a meeting..

Today go to an ‘anonymous’ meeting
The place will save your life, and you shall receive a welcoming greeting
No self depreciating, none of that self harm which aims for your own self defeating. 

Go and say what is on your mind, 
People won’t judge, they will try to empathise as they have been to your place too, 
You don’t need to be around those secular people who don’t understand, nor have a clue.

Go to a meeting, 
It will be the best thing you can do today,
The main share of the story is what you have experience in some point in your life; so you will be okay.

Go to an anonymous meeting, 
Release the words which in your head the locked in your heart, 
The moment of release could simply be the beginning of a brand new start.

Difficult days

Some days are difficult 
Some days are full of light, 
Some days we can be very impatient, but expect to come through any fight. 

Some days we lose somebody we love and want them back,
Out lives have turned around, and wonder if God has anymore slack.

Some days you are blessed with God’s grace
Some days you are humbled but still need a warm embrace. 

Some days you are fighting a losing battle, 
Yet some days you embroil with ‘he or she said’, that kind of tittle tattle.

Some days you are held together by faith 
And some days you are managing the struggles you are unable to face.

Today you are here, isn’t that a blessing?
You are focusing on life, just for the PRESENT, through that there’s no messing. 

Some days you are living in the present and not getting carried away
Some days you are in turmoil, but in heaven there is always a place to stay.

Pushing yourself

Some of us need to push ourselves to outside our comfort zone,
We need to grow
Don’t need to slow down, 
This is your life after all, until God says its your final day
Be humble to your heart, there is heaven awaiting to lay. 

Keep going and find your vice
Push your body, go for a walk, run or lift weights,
Some people delve into words which delve into unhealthy debates, 
Lift your spirit 
Lift your soul 
Allow your higher power be in full control. 

It’s about faith
It’s about the struggles which we later find, 
Some of them appear through a risk
Other situations you don’t know how to miss. 

Today is your day
A day of reflection and hope,
Stop moaning.. or is that a thing this country (UK) does so well;
A prayer is my humility and my story to tell.
