Phone Messages from the Poetry Bridge

I had a thread of messages to myself on my phone, some were personal reminders. Other messages were quotes I saw or something I quickly read and took note of. I can’t say that all of this is a collection of my own personal ideas. Instead, I view it as a collaboration of words between myself and inspiration. I collected this inspiration as if you would collect art.

Don’t waste time to fight with ego’s and small minds dear butter bee fly!

You will stop worrying about what other people think of you when you realize they seldom do-David Foster Wallace

All trust is gone due to insufficient loyalty bubba Lu.

Not everyone in your life that has hurt you cares how they have hurt you. How do you let that go? Forgive. Love is who you are.

Being ignored causes the same chemical reaction in the brain as getting physically hit. How do you heal? Love is who you are.

Confident personalities make weaker people tremble.

When you are looking for a hand to hold but you get an ass to kiss instead.

To live is to know what it means to surrender. We are born to live and die. Some love is love to hate. Rise above rejection and hate. To understand how to suffer is to live and to know love. Let the light in.

You are free. You are healthy. You are wealthy. You are wise. You are enough. Forgive the dragon.

The healer looks at death as a reversal of life.

One mark of maturity is when somebody hurts you. You try to understand their situation instead of hurting them back.

Fake friends are like shadows always near at your brightest moments but nowhere to be seen at your darkest hour. If you must tell someone the same exact thing about how you feel repeatedly, and nothing changes, then understand that they do not respect you.

One thing I have come to realize is some people would let you walk away from their lives. They never had to make an effort for you to stay. It hurts. You have put so much time and effort into this person. You did this just for them to show you that you were truly nothing to them.

At the end of your life, it will not matter how much money you made. It will not matter what title you have. What truly matters is if you took care of your people every day.

Don’t chase anyone. Don’t beg anyone to stay. Know your worth. Save space for people who matter. Except what cant be changed. Leave what is not for you. Love yourself!

No one is real in this world except for your parents. People don’t like good thoughts they like good looks. People respect the money not the person. The person you love the most will hurt you the most.

There is someone who’s much worse than you at doing the very thing you want to do and they are getting paid a lot of money for it because they believe in their self more.

You become a very dangerous person when you are someone no one can control. Become a independent master. Be emotionally detached and become comfortable with being alone. Those are the three things that people and society will use to try and control you.

Staying silent is better than explaining because people in this generation do not care what you are going through anymore.

If they stand behind you, you protect them. If they stand besides you respect them. If they stand against you show them no mercy.

You attract into your life not what you want but what you are. I am healthy, I am happy, I am abundant.

Being fearless is how you overcome negativity and break down walls. If you knew who walked besides you on this path that you have chosen you would never feel fear again.- Wayne Dyer

I am trying to live deep. I am trying to be classy. I am weird. I am trying to be sexy, I am too innocent. I am trying to get it right. I want to make all the money. I want to show that I have a spirit worthy of the cracks in my heart that have been filled in with gold.

Let people do what they want so you can see what they would rather do. That will tell you everything.

I know everything is going to get better, I just don’t know how. That is okay.

I am not scared to let people know my weaknesses. Because behind that weakness is a strength ready to be born. Vulnerability is attractive. Expressing your weaknesses exposes your enemies and strengthens your ability to see who has your back.

I cant deny the rough confusing side of myself or it will not get healed.

A successful partner is looking for someone to share their ideas with.

Follow the breath and the mind begins to cease.

I love all of you. I am you. We are one. You have to feel to heal.

The liars punishment is that even when he speaks the truth no one believes him.

Sometimes you think you are in a dark place you have actually been planted.

The betrayal will show you who you can trust. The heartbreak is temporary. The scars are a reminder of how deep you loved. The deepest of wounds will fill in with strength. The bitterness that once filled your heart will be balanced with the sweetness of life. The sword in your back will become the greatest weapon of protection for your soul. The isolation will force you to heal what you resist.

The silence will clear your mind. It will allow you to hear the truth of who you are. You will hear the truth without the projections of others upon your back. You will rise up against all odds and declare yourself worthy of love. You will never let another person destroy your integrity in exchange for money.

On a lunar eclipse with your eyes closed you will see the light in the darkest of rooms. You will grow like a mighty sequoia despite being in the barren mountainous dessert. You will not listen to the silent voices of doubt that are there to destroy your dreams. You will embrace wisdom and love the light within yourself even if the road to love has been blocked. You can be up against many obstacles and challenges and constantly facing many enemies. You will are innocent like a child that is cared for and raised by a mighty compassionate army. You will be protected and safe from this day forever and ever. Thank you for being my enemy because you have helped me elevate.

People will love you to the extent that they can love themselves. When you understand that you will expect nothing from no one. You will take nothing personal. I choose to feel good.

Takers sometimes eat better but givers sleep better.

I choose love patience peace and all intelligent possibilities. I love and breathe. I am excepting of all possibilities with peace, caution, and understanding. I reject nevermore. I am, and will be alive and dead at the same time. I feel joy in both because I am neither, and all at the same time.

I am woman, man, sun, moon, earth, sky, watcher, observer, water, blood, soul, spirit. I am none of the layers that exist in time and segments of unrecorded judgment. Breathe, baby breathe, transform. Evolve, let go and harmonize.

Its only now and all the hearts love you have in your memories, you are safe. You are loved without the knowledge of love. You are and exist as to why you are love. Dance like its your first moving body. Sway run, hop, bop, lay bounce vibrate like in nature you see.

Please take away my anger and replace it with love. Release the judgement of other people from off of my consciousness. Anger is emotional punishment you give yourself for someone else’s behavior. I kept suffering because I refuse to let go. I wake up and then fall asleep with the push and pull. Time stands still and speeds up again. Every stage of my age I devote myself to be my own friend. Not dying or living but being and giving.

Sometimes you create with your words if your body fails to act. Sometimes your body acts if your words fail to bubble up. In the middle is the voice of your heart! Somewhere in the middle is that small still voice that only speaks truth through word and action. It shows us who we are in our truest form, without judgement. Offering peace, unity and creativity along with the joy that sets you free.

Here and there your actions and words become a pair as they hold each others hand in hand. Your words become your kingdom and your body is your land. You become a grand paintbrush as your canvas expands your vision. There is no hate nor peace just in that moment. It transcends. In that moment, you find release. You start to see yourself in word and deed. You are the bird that flies within me. You are the moon that I see when I think of being free.

I have no other agenda but to inspire, heal, and make peace. It is a strange world where kindness has to be taught.

You have to start over every day. You cant let the burdens of the past way you down. Going down hill can be harder than going up hill. Going up hill you can tumble backwards. Going downhill you can tumble forward. With each step on the ground as your breath is your dominant sound.

As you get older you realize you have nothing to prove to anyone anymore. The external challenge of proving your worth resides within you. Once you have achieved and there is no more want, desire starts to fade away, transform, and seek you out instead.

You break, you cry, and your ego dies.

You are reborn again and again.
