wish

 

do you wish to rise

begin by descending do you plan a tower

that will pierce the clouds

lay first the foundation of humility

take care of your body as if you were

going to live forever

a

nd take care of your soul as if you're
going to die

tomorrow

patience is the companion of wisdom

you aspire to do great things begin

with little ones

pray as though everything depended on
god

work as though everything depended on
you

faith is to believe what you do not see

the reward of this faith is to see what

you believe

complete abstinence is easier than

perfect moderation

conquer yourself and the world lies at
your
feet

right is right even if no one is doing
it

wrong is wrong even if everyone
is doing it

god has promised forgiveness to your

repentance

but he has not promised tomorrow to your

procrastination

the confession of evil works is the
beginning

of good works

set aside time and a lot certain hours

to the welfare of your soul

this is the very perfection of a man

to find out his own imperfections

pride changes angels into devils

humility makes men as angels

find out how much god has given you and
from it

take only what you need the remainder

is needed by others

the world is a book and those who do not
travel

read only a page

go forth on your path as it exists

only through your walking
you

friends poetries

be a friend

you don't need money

just a disposition sunny

just the wish to help another

get along some way or other

just to kindly and extended

out to one who's unbefriended

just the will to give or lend

this will make you someone's friend

be a friend you don't need glory

friendship is a simple story

pass by trifling errors blindly

gaze on honest effort kindly

cheer the youth who's bravely trying

pity him who's sadly sighing

just a little labor spend

on the duties of a friend

be a friend the pay

is bigger though

not ridden by a figure then is earned

by people clever in what's

merely self endeavor

you'll have friends instead of neighbors

for the profits of your labors

you'll be richer in the end

than a prince if you're a friend
you

imagination is more important than knowledge

imagination is more important than

knowledge

knowledge is limited imagination

encircles the world

there are only two ways to live your
life one

is as though nothing is a miracle the
other

is as though everything is a miracle

it's not that i'm so smart it's just

that i stay with problems
longer

education is what remains after one has

forgotten what one has learned at school

i believe in intuitions and inspirations

i sometimes feel that i am right i do
not know

that i am right

if you can't explain it to a

six-year-old

you don't understand it yourself

unthinking respect for authority is the

greatest enemy of truth

life is like riding a bicycle to keep
your balance

you must keep moving

logic will get you from a to b

imagination will take you

everywhere

strive not to be a success but rather
to be of value

look deep into nature and then you will

understand
everything better

the monotony and solitude of a quiet
life

stimulates the creative mind

two things are infinite the universe and

human stupidity

and i'm not sure about the universe

never memorize something you can look up

once we accept our limits we go beyond
them

imagination is everything it is the

preview of life's coming attractions

most people say that it is the intellect

which makes a great scientist

they are wrong it is character

great spirits have always encountered

violent opposition from mediocre minds

no problem can be solved from the same

level of consciousness

that created it

anyone who has never made a mistake has

never tried anything new

reality is merely an illusion albeit a

very persistent one

you

out of the night

 

out of the night

that covers me black

is the pit from pole the pole

i thank whatever gods may be

for my unconquerable soul

in the fell clutch of circumstance

i have not winced nor cried aloud

under the bludgeonings of chance

my head is bloody but unbowed

beyond this place of wrath and tears

looms but the horror of the shade

and yet the menace of the years

finds and shall find me

unafraid

it matters not how straight the gate

how charged with punishments the scroll

i am the master of my fate

i am the captain of my
soul
you

poetry

 anders gesagt oh shit anders tata steel

dabei

beim us-grand-prix sie gern

with torn and bleeding hearts

we wear the mask that grins

and lies hides our

cheeks and shades our eyes

this debt we pay to human guile

with torn and bleeding hearts

we smile and mouth

with myriad subtleties

why should the world be overwise

and counting all our tears and sighs

may let them only see us

while we wear the mask

we smile but o great

christ our cries to thee from tortured

souls arise

we sing but oh the clay is vile

beneath our feet and long the mile

but let the world dream otherwise

we wear the mask
you

do not stand at my grave and weep

 

do not stand at my grave and weep

i am not there i do not sleep

i am a thousand winds that blow

i am the diamond glimpse on snow

i am the sunlight on ripened green

i am the gentle autumn rain

when you awaken in the morning's hush

i am the swift uplifting rush

of quiet birds encircled flight

i am the soft stars that shine
at night

do not stand at my grave and
cry
i am not there

i did not die
you

today i am going to bid farewell to bad habits

 

today

i am going to bid farewell to bad habits

and welcome positive change in my life

i am releasing yesterday

so that i am fully present today

i am awakening to a new dawn

to greet a fresh start

i am calm

i am centered and i am refreshed

in my present state of mind

i am grateful for all that i have

and all that is yet to come

i have confidence in myself

and i instill confidence in others

i am determined to be healthier and

happier with each passing day

i am determined to continue to work hard

for what i want

i am not only hoping for a better life

but i am actively working towards one

i am attentive to the opportunities of

the day

and i seize them as they arise

i am unwilling to allow excuses or

procrastination to hold me back

i am highly productive

i am persistent in chasing my

dreams

i am tougher than all the challenges and

hurdles standing in my way

i accept that each new challenge i

face is an opportunity to

grow and improve

i am taking my desires seriously

and i do not feel guilty about them

i am willing to put my desires forward

as

if i have a right to them

i am courageous and i

stand up for myself

i am not a victim of circumstance

i forgive the part of me that holds

resentment

as i forgive myself

it becomes easier to forgive

others

i forgive those who have hurt me

in the past and i peacefully

detach from them

i am giving myself the love

i have always deserved

i am letting go of my shortfalls

i am letting go of my mistakes

i am letting go of all the false stories

i make up in my head

i am letting go of the past

so i can step into the future with

pure intentions

i am keen for the road ahead

i am grateful for the opportunity to

change the world

by changing me

i am paving a path towards success brick

by brick day by day

my future is an ideal projection

of my efforts today

i am conquering my afflictions

i am defeating them steadily each day

i am freeing my mind of worrisome

thoughts that do not serve me

i am no longer as fearful as i once was

i am not ashamed of my depressions

i am brave enough to get through

anything

i am unshakable in any storm

i possess the qualities needed to be

extremely successful

i am free of limiting beliefs about

money

i am looking forward to all of the

benefits

of having more wealth

i am aware of my own self-worth

i have too much self-respect

to feel self-pity

many people look up to me and recognize

my worth

i am blessed and loved

i am willing to accept happy fulfilling

relationships

i am a supportive and dependable friend

i am gracious to every new person

i meet

i surround myself with people who are

honest

and bring out the best in me

i am proud to take responsibility for

myself

i am responsible for all my thoughts

words actions and results

i am responsible for the information i

consume

i am responsible for how i

show up in life

i trust myself

i am always eager to try new things

i am able to study and learn

any subjects i commit myself

to

i am learning to pick myself

up when i am down

i am learning to step out of my comfort

zone

i am competent smart and able

i am becoming more intelligent

every day

i am ready to tackle any questions asked

of me

i am willing to challenge the status quo

i am courageous enough to speak my mind

i am smart enough to make my own

decisions

and i am mature enough to live

by their consequences

i am the architect of my life

i lay its foundation and choose its

contents

i alone hold the truth of who i

am

today i am going to bid farewell

to bad habits and welcome a positive

change in my life

you

so live your life that the fear of death

 

so live your life that the fear of death

can never enter your heart

trouble no one for their religion

respect others in their view

and demand that they respect yours too

love your life perfect your life

beautify all things in your life

seek to make your life long and its

purpose

in the service of your people

prepare a noble death song

for the day when you pass over the great

divide

always give a word or a sign of salute

when meeting or passing a friend

even a stranger when in a lonely

place

show respect to all people and grovel to

none

when you arise in the morning give

thanks for

food and the joy of living

if you see no reason to give thanks

the blame lies only on yourself

abuse no one and no thing

for abuse turns the wise into fools

and robs the spirit of its vision

it comes your time to die

be not like those whose hearts are

filled with the fear of death

so that when their time comes

they weep and pray for a little more

time to live their lives over again

in a different way

sing your death song

and die like a hero going home

you

poetry

when
i have fears that i may cease to be

before my pen has gleaned my teeming
brain before

high piled books in character

hold like rich garners the full
ripened grain

when i behold upon the night's starred
face

huge cloudy symbols of a high romance

and think that i may never live

to trace their shadows with the magic

hand of chance

and when i feel fair creature of an

hour that i shall never look upon thee
more

never have relish in the fairy power

of unreflecting love

then on the shore of the wide world i

stand alone

and think to love

and fame to nothingness to think

you

in the morning

in the morning

before dressing light incense and meditate

retire at a regular hour

partake of food at regular intervals

eat with moderation and never to the

point of satisfaction

receive a guest with the same attitude

you have

when alone when alone maintain the same

attitude you have

in receiving guests

watch what you say and whatever you say

practice it

when an opportunity comes do not let it

pass you by

yet always think twice before acting

do not regret the past look

to the future

have the fearless attitude of a hero

and the loving heart of a child

upon retiring sleep as if you had

entered your last sleep

upon awakening leave your bed behind you

instantly as if you had cast away a pair of

old shoes

let go or be dragged

when you do something you should immerse

yourself

completely leaving no room for thinking

live by letting things happen

treat every moment as your last it is

not

preparation for something else

cease to cherish your opinions

as a bee gathering nectar does not harm

or disturb the color

and fragrance of the flower the wise

move through the world

peace comes from within do not seek it

without

act without expectation

do not follow the ideas of others but

learn

to listen to the voice within yourself

face it accept it deal with it

then let it go

you are exactly where you need to be

one loses joy and happiness in the

attempt

to possess them

to seek is to suffer to seek nothing

is bliss

wherever you are be there totally

if you want to change the world start

with the next person

who comes to you in need

drink your tea slowly and reverently

as the earth revolves on its axis

slowly evenly without rushing

toward the future

we are here to awaken from our illusion

of separateness

let go of your attachment to the self

let your mind wander in the pure and

simpler

you
