Awaken

In your life
A new day is dawning
Awaken and touch the beauty
A new day is dawning
Awaken and touch the beauty
Wherever you've come
from
Whatever you've been
New possibilities beckon
Right here and now
Awaken and make them real
Whatever you've been
New possibilities beckon
Right here and now
Awaken and make them real
There was a time when you
held in your heart
The most magnificent of dreams
A time when life seemed to carry
Endless promises and possibilities
The most magnificent of dreams
A time when life seemed to carry
Endless promises and possibilities
Those dreams are still
with you
Awaken and bring them to life
Awaken and bring them to life
What you long for
Is longing for you
What you dream of
Is what you are meant to create
Is longing for you
What you dream of
Is what you are meant to create
The doubts you have exist
only in your mind
The anxieties that seem so burdensome are of your own making
Now is the moment to awaken,
and allow those doubts to melt away
The anxieties that seem so burdensome are of your own making
Now is the moment to awaken,
and allow those doubts to melt away
Awaken, and dive deeply
into the beauty of this moment
Allow your spirit to fully experience the richness of it all
Allow your spirit to fully experience the richness of it all
Awaken
Allow peace to fill you completely
Let it touch your deepest longings
Let it bring those longings to life
Your most treasured possibilities are real,
If you will simply let them live through you
Allow peace to fill you completely
Let it touch your deepest longings
Let it bring those longings to life
Your most treasured possibilities are real,
If you will simply let them live through you
Awaken to this moment, and
life begins anew
Reach inside, and allow
your most treasured
dreams to awaken with you
Into a bright and shining new day
Reach inside, and allow
your most treasured
dreams to awaken with you
Into a bright and shining new day
Remind yourself again and
again
Of how beautiful life can be
Remind yourself again and again
That you can make it so
Of how beautiful life can be
Remind yourself again and again
That you can make it so
Awaken
Step boldly and lovingly forward
Into this day
Step boldly and lovingly forward
Into this day
You've already come
So very far You're stronger, more experienced
and more determined than ever
To fulfill those longings
That tell you who you are
So very far You're stronger, more experienced
and more determined than ever
To fulfill those longings
That tell you who you are
Now is your moment to
create real meaning
Now is your moment to awaken
And to truly and fully live
Now is your moment to awaken
And to truly and fully live
Wow, that is a beautiful picture.
ReplyDeleteThe poem and photo of endless lupins remind me that abundance and possibilities are everywhere in this world yet how easily we can scatter seeds of limitation with pessimistic thinking. I suppose it all starts from within. As Albert Einstein said, “Joy in looking and comprehending is nature's most beautiful gift."
ReplyDelete...Now is your moment to create real meaning

I guess it's my age but I am finding more and more circumstance and obligations often make that very hard.
