Procrastination - a case of laziness or something deeper? Part 1- On our "good to haves", "musts" and unicorns

I Am You
by Serene Martin
So much of pain exists in this world because of the sense of separation we feel between us and everything else. This one was written to inspire us to feel connected .
I am the taste of coffee on your tongue and the glass which holds it against your lips
I am the rage of the storm and the calm of its eye
I am the blade of the knife and the energy with which it cuts
I am the wetness of raindrops and the burn of cigars
I am the green of the grass and the transparency of air
I am the curve of your smile and the depth of your remorse
I am your friend and the friend of your enemy
I am what I am and I am you.
Because We Can Change
by Serene Martin
This goes out to everyone I love. Because we can change….
When I stopped believing in luck, I was no longer a victim of circumstance
When I started looking for ways to celebrate each day no matter what happened, I was no longer trapped in my past memories
When I tried to transform the anger and fear I carried in my heart to acceptance and love, I began to breathe more easily
When I chose to eat clean, my body began to heal itself
When I followed my heart, making the right decisions came easily to me
When I accepted that everyone is on their own path no matter how much I may disagree with them, my own path lit up more clearly for me beneath my feet
When I gave up dwelling on things I could not change, more things started changing for me
When I chose to believe that all the right resources will show up for me when I needed them, they did
When I released the things that I no longer needed in life, I gained the experiences that I desired instead
When I believed with all my heart that the same force of life, which breathed life into me, was on my side, it empowered and protected me wherever I went.
Edge of the Cliff
by Serene Martin
There will come a time when we will need to step over the edge of the cliff of certainty
Where we feel we have extinguished all resources we have grown to rely upon in our spirits
We must believe one of two things will happen:
Angels we never knew we had will catch our fall
Or we will learn to fly
If you really love yourself, dream big.
by Serene Martin
"I prefer to be a dreamer among the humblest, with visions to be realised, than lord among those without dreams and desires."
-Kahlil Gibran-
Throughout my life I have certainly done things I have enjoyed doing most of the time (thank god for that).
