"Be free, day and night
Whisper like my friend
Must have road to dream
Run like the music" --magnet poetry.
Scrounging through my fridge for a little something to nibble on this afternoon, I found myself staring at magnet poetry that I'd constructed long ago. Reading the words that I undoubtedly read within an instant almost every day, I smiled, realizing how much my life actually follows those words.
In a humorous way, I am "free" most days and nights. But in the serious sense, I am feeling more free than I ever have in my life; spiritually,mentally, emotionally.
I am trying, more and more this past year, to speak in the words which my friends use, so that they know I truly resonate with them when they communicate with me. I am also trying to be a better listener instead of always the talker in relationships; to be more quiet; to "whisper like my friends".
Pretty much the most inspiring time in my life is when I am on the road. If I did not have the opportunity to travel, I feel like I'd be a devastated and immensely depressed person. Abstractly, in the actual magnet poetry, it says "road two dream"; which I could attach to the reason that I so yearn to have a lover to travel with.
And when I run these days, I put the music on for my inspiration and it makes my work outs feel to me as if they have been nearly effortless in hind-sight. I feel like I flow with it.
And with this, I digress:
It occurred to me how simple it is to be affected by words. How, unbeknownst to myself, my reading those words daily, placed a few things in my universe without a conscious effort of my own. It causes me to wonder what advertisements or the news say to our subconscious minds. What are the words which we as individuals or communities give out and receive in producing in the world and for our planet? What effect do these have on our own hearts and souls? To the hearts and souls to others?
Just an interesting thought that I'll leave myself with.
