Observe and Learn by John/Gaining Maturity/Understanding/Knowledge/Self-Awareness/Self-Learning


 

Observe and Learn

 

When I was young,

I observed and learned.

When I matured,

I observed and learned.

As I grow old,

I observe and learn.

 

In my experience of life,

I gain understanding.

In my understanding of life,

I find wisdom.

In finding wisdom,

I observe and learn.

I have two self-help stories available exclusively on
 Amazon, either on the Kindle or paperback, and I do
 hope that you find them interesting, thought-
provoking, and, most of all, enjoyable: -
 
This simply written short story is aimed at those who
 seek to understand themselves, and through
 understanding themselves comes a greater
 understanding of life. 
 
(as witnessed by his brother)
Much has been written about Jesus, and no matter your
 view on religion or Christianity, this person, whether he
 was as described in the bible or not, has singularly
 shaped, to a greater or lesser extent, the lives we lead
 today through his wisdom. There are many versions of
 the story, but there is only one truth, and is it not
 better to know the truth?

Intermittent Explosive Disorder by John/IED/Uncontrollable Rage/Quick Temper/Anger Management


 

Intermittent Explosive Disorder

 

It hits me like a streak of lightning,

and before I know it, I feel like a-fighting.

The blood is pounding in my head,

and my veins are popping, and I see red.

The cause, real or imaginary, doesn’t matter now,

as I face them with aggressive stance and heavy brow!

A part of me knows this me, is not who I want to be,

but unfortunately, common sense has gone and deserted me.

I regret this overwhelming rage and being so mean,

and I must now train myself to be calm and serene.

Good Choices by John/Self-Awareness/Feeling Good/Understanding/Wisdom/Peace/Calm


 Good Choices

 

Avoid or abstain from those

who delight in trouble,

or life will burst your comfortable,

“I’m important” bubble!

Learn from your mistakes,

and take pleasure in good choices,

then you will find, with you,

the Universe rejoices!

Interictal Dysphoric Disorder by John/IDD/Epilepsy/Good Health/Healing/Calming


 

Interictal Dysphoric Disorder (IDD)

 

It often feels like an energy overload,

or at times like a car crash on a busy road.

My whole system seems to go haywire,

as my senses are consumed by blazing fire.

And afterwards there is no calm after the storm,

as my energies crash and I feel irritable and forlorn.

Help me please is my determined and hope filled cry,

and that to this condition I can then bid, GOODBYE!

Magic by John/Loving Experience/Caring/Sharing/Shared Positivity/Feel Good/Feel Magic/Self-Awareness


Magic

 

Take a moment, and let me do tell,

 

that magic doesn’t always need a spell.

 

There is magic in a smile that lights up a room,

 

and magic, too, in words that make one bloom.

 

There is magic in a loved one’s touch,

 

and magic in real laughter from humour and such!

 

Just a kind thought is magic in a way,

 

and it covers any distance, like a sunshine ray!

 

There is so much magic that we each can share,

 

and all that is required is that we honestly care!

The Present by John/A Gift/Appreciation/Self-Awareness/In The Moment/Cognitive Awareness


 The Present

 

When one’s eyes are fixed

to firmly on the past or future,

one tends to miss the beauty

of the here and now,

and it is our PRESENT!

Intention by John/Aspiration/Determination/Focus/Desire/Intuition/Self-Awareness/Self-Discipline


 

Intention

 

The future we seek starts with a thought,

which becomes the positive aspiration we sought.

The aspiration takes time to ferment,

and mature into positive intent.

The universe can then lend a hand,

when our true intent makes a stand.

Listening by John/Philosophical/Wisdom/Learning/True Power/Self-Awareness/Cognitive Awareness


 Listening

 

One learns not from talking,

but by asking, questioning,

and most importantly, listening,

not just with ears,

but with heart and soul also.

Integrating My Shadow-Self by John/Being Whole/Yin and Yang/Feeling Complete/Self-Awareness


 

Integrating My Shadow-Self

 

I didn’t know there was more of me,

hidden so no others could see.

It’s been imprisoned deep within my mind,

but my shadow-self I’ll no longer bind!

I didn’t realise that I was incomplete, broken,

and a part of me treated as a valueless token.

I will use my shadow-self in a positive way,

and it will know now it is here to stay.

Beauty and Simplicity

 

There is great simplicity,

and a great beauty,

It is beautifully simple,
