Doormat?

A Gift with words is what I possess
But that doesn't mean I am a doormat

There is a lot more to me than
something you may see as a doormat

I use this name because I am aggressive
but I don't like to come across as one who rattles

But I will have you know that when you do me wrong,
The Universe knows it, and will attack in its own time.

Be choosy of your words, and what you do to others.
Though I am not a doormat, if you do me wrong,
you will pay a great deal for the things you do.

A little love and kindness is never wasted--
but but be choosy where you send it.

What is...What is not...

Just because you see it, does not mean it's there.
Just because you don't see it does not mean it's not there.

The question: what do you see?
What is around you? Do you believe everything you see?
Think about your surroundings--
Are your friends who they say they are?

Are they really who you think they are?
Just because you are there for them, does that
mean they are there for you?

Think about what brings you all together.
It's not what you think at all.
There lies a mutual interest--
but is it really worth your time?

I know something many don't.
Because I believe in the things I do not see--
and the things people do not tell me.

Listen closely to the words you read on the page-
Sometimes, the words you see--
is not exactly what one says....

The Universe...

A Zen Buddhist proverb states:

If the Universe does not exist, I do not, either.
And if I don't exist, neither does the Universe.

The whole point of this proverb is to think about
where you direct your thoughts.

The power of the mind is a very powerful thing.
And the Universe pays attention to those thoughts.

Where you direct your mind, is where it will take you.

The more you think of something, the more you receive
of what you think of.

The Point: As you think about what bothers you,
do something to change it, so it never does so.

To make your dreams happen, put your thoughts
into them...

In This Life...

Life itself is a miracle.
It is the one thing, that no matter
the situations you are in,
no matter the circumstances,
good, or bad--
It's one thing that makes you
a better person along the way as you age.

You become a better person,
you yourself become a purpose.
For yourself, for others--

The way we touch each others' lives--
In no matter what we do,
We become a better person...

In just a few words...

Listen to the things people do not tell you.
You would be surprised what you find out.

Look past what they say.
You'd be surprised on what they mean.

Listen closely to what's being said.
Sometimes, what's between the lines
isn't really what's there.

Look closely at the pictures.
Does something appear to be missing?

Open every door.
You would be surprised to find
what's on the other side.

Illusions...

I am in a place where everything is an illusion.
The friends don't seem real.
The enemies don't know why they are such.
One of my closest tells me it will all be shown to me.
How strange we must hide behind pictures to show
the world what we really don't feel, and what is really not there...

We take pictures to reveal, but not hide.
It seems to me that behind every picture we reveal,
there has to be something to hide behind it...
Do we hide what is not there?
Why must we try so hard
to create something that is not there?

An illusion. A hologram.
Something that is not there--
it all depends on what we choose to see.
We CHOOSE to see.
