After Shocks are After Thoughts II

After Shocks are After Thoughts II

the tremor, the quiver, the uncontrollable shakes
are they after shocks or a full blown earth quake?
and what is their source, what is their cause
let us explore this, let’s take a pause

the pause is the answer, to enter the gap
we find in the stillness the journey is a map
a map from the source thru all the dimensions
and the challenges met can hold time in suspension

did i do that? a memory from the past
memories can be permanent, a stain that can last
and as they’re relived, their essence is sieved
causing worry and stress, anxiety to address

when something just happens a journey to the map tracks and ends
where a similarity is marked, a reaction state is embarked
from the point of past stimulation
it’s a difficult equation

so if the after shocks come from after thoughts
how can we help here?
this is the conundrum and the solution will come
simply erase or replace with a new story
being creative and having fun

(we used to investigate and compare
with this past way we are done)

patience is a virtue
let it all unfold
be patient, have courage
be both curious and bold

Reset

Reset

once unplugged
the program is lost
a space of emptiness is required
to recognize the cost

the cost of old patterns
the automatic doing
the busyness of our programs
and the overwhelm ensuing

the awe and the freedom
the awareness of now
it is time for a reset
and we all know how

discerning the importance
of where we choose to align
repositioning to allow this
and let it flow thru our spine

remembering only
the gems of the past
building new networks + knotting the junctions
before our new nets are cast

setting new patterns
testing to feel
our navigational centre
in the heart is now real
