How to change the world

March 21, 2020 by Russell Wardlow Leave a Comment

Find your inner power
to empower-
self, and all
directing your thoughts
allowing them to guide you
your speech,
beliefs,
and actions
manifesting your desired path
think to do,
and become
transcend thoughtlessness
and thinking to think
thinking hopelessly,
or even hopefully-
halts your power
claim, and then enforce, your power
bury barriers
conquer trying
and become
become powerful
using more than intellect
engage your insight and imagination
engineering reflection
and harnessing foresight
use compassion as your compass
both for self,
and others
allow love-
self love
and love for all-
to ignite your passions
dare to embrace
and fly free
soaring on a knowing impulse
honing a oneness of instincts
exploring a new understanding of feeling
discovering introspective and innovative wisdoms
striving to know your authentic self
through fearlessness
courageous defying second thoughts
impulse is your soul reaching
passion is your spirit yearning
desire is your mind indulging
and love,
is your heart exploring
instincts will then be the working of all these things
demonstrating and declaring,
your highest expressions of self
living is transcending focus on worldly ways
and navigating the world in your way
using emotions as identifiers of experience
being moved by the causes in the world
that call to you
causing you to move consciously-
to do something compassionately
loving boldly
negating fearsignoring perception
deaf to judgement
fiercely standing apart
to become whole
and create wholeness-
oneness with all by example
believing one person can change the world
believing yourself, powerful enough-
To Change The World
