Building Power

3/23/09

"Be strong!" is the directive

that imperative must be embraced,

be in command of your prowess,

natural talents, unique birthright,

do not mistake this as 'hardened'

without sensitivity or open heart,

it is the opposite, yet invulnerable

to slings and arrows thrown at you

from circumstance, fearful humans,

or life's obstacles and challenges,

meet it all with irrepressible resilience,

vigor, confidence, competence, equanimity,

shut out debilitations that linger

past hurt or worry reminding of weakness,

instead take heed to lessons learned

by changing approach for different results

even though while being realistic, "Dream!"

let 'Source' come into you to live,

be, do, inform, as embodied Self

follow intuition, inspiration, guidance,

say "Yes!" to resonate vibrations

turn away from that which demeans,

decreases connection to all good things,

heal what is broken, imagine what's possible,

manifest your potential, by building power.
