The time has come for positive feedback
It has been a long, lonely road
Fighting the forces of inhibition
Held this prince in the form of a toad

I recently pruned my garden
I weeded out patterns that were holding me back
Like sitting in front of a computer
Following anything but the right track

I grew tired of following orders
Allowing others to suck me into their dream
One thing always led to another
While inside I was wanting to scream

Eventually I used my bottled-up anger
Just at the point I was ready to burst
I took some time out to work on myself
To quench my spiritual thirst

I had tried my best to be altruistic
Giving of myself as much as I could
Sure, I had moments of exasperation
At times I even acted quite rude

It was because I knew I was neglecting
The kindling that I knew needed to burn
There comes a time in everyone’s life
When even your own needs, need a turn

So I done some power meditations
To take back what is rightfully mine

To free the thieves from the weight
Allow them also the chance to shine

I then went deeper into my being
Made a connection to my higher self
Like me, he too was suffering
He didn’t like being left high on the shelf

Fortunately, he is very understanding
His patience is not time bound
He knew I had to break from the source
But that I would come back around

So now I don’t know what the future holds
It is not even mine to know
When I get confused, anxious or lost
I turn inside to feel which way to go

The more I listen to his wisdom
Learning not to rely on long shot bets
The surer I am of my actions
The stronger our connection gets

We are all part of something bigger
Of which most of us are not aware
We are all here for an adventure
But we must develop the courage to dare

In the end it isn’t that hard
For deep down you know it’s true
To follow the path of least resistance
Is the only way for you to be you

At first it seems quite scary

We do not feel worthy of our joy
But always remember that life is a game
We can always fix our broken toy

Friends and acquaintances may be taken aback
When you demonstrate your new way of being
Do not explain, justify or apologise
Now that you know that believing is seeing

Like-minded people will come into your life
Each time you shed an old skin
For the journey of life is evolution
The point is deciding when you are going to begin

We have to consciously create our future
By using each individual’s power of dream
Only then will we be promoted enough
To call ourselves a premier league team

One that lives in balance with nature
That doesn’t send animals to slaughterhouses
That treat each other as we’d like to be treated
Then can we call ourselves men and not mouses

Yes, I know that was not grammatically correct
Do you know that we can create our own language?
So let’s invent fifty more words to describe aspects of love
For instance, how about chachachafanguage?

That is a new word for how it feels
When you are following your heart and soul
For believe me there is nothing better
Indeed, it is the only way to feel whole

Imagine the explosion of human potential
If all our basic needs were met
Without the need to chase bits of paper
Spending most of our lives caught in a net

The old systems do not need to crash
We can evolve them to promote our health
We can use the ‘Bradley Pound’ model
Free the banks from hoarding our wealth

The court system could be used for justice
Instead of debt collecting for corporations
Then maybe we will respect our policemen
Put an end to any needless altercations

Potentially we are the judge, the jury and the executioner
That is why it is important to act in hope
The time we are living through is unique
So let’s not hang ourselves with our own rope

Every day we make old decisions
Yet we act like they are not of our making
I am not saying that we need to be selfish
If you follow your dream, you’ll be naturally giving

You will feel much lighter and as a result
The people around you will smile
We can then work together for a common goal
We may even get used to utopia after a while

Cheers!
