When Fears and Negative Thoughts Arrive

Li-ling Ooi Poetry, Writing belief, fears, negative thoughts, worry, worthiness 0

When Fears and negative thoughts arrive
Invite them in
Give them a place by the fire to warm their toes and their souls
Offer them tea and biscuits and ask them to stay for but a while

Listen to what they have to say, hear them out
Patiently, calmly, non judgementally
And when they, and you, are ready, send them on their way and know

Know that all that it is, is a perspective
A one sided judgement on what could be or may be
Yet so many more possibilities, so many more opportunities exist beyond just the perspectives of fear

So hear them out, listen and accept, that
All fear is, is simply a view, an angle, a perspective
Share your thanks for the concern
Your gratitude for your very own, very real
Very effective antennae of judgement

And know that despite any fear, worries or negative judgements
In each and every moment, you have the ability

To believe in yourself
To embrace your own amazing talents, knowledge and …
To know that you’re worthy and valuable
Of everything and anything that you can imagine and oh so much more too.

Stop and Sit For A While Today

Li-ling Ooi Poetry, Writing calm, happy, joy, rest, worthiness 0

Stop and sit for a while today,
Make it your wonderfully worthy intention,
To simply do nothing.

For in doing nothing,
you are doing far more than you can ever imagine.

You are embracing the worthiness of your Self,
You are living up to the expectations of the Universe for a wonderful, joyful life,
You are, in that same moment, embracing all that you are
And coupling it with all you can be.

Stop and sit for a while today,
Make it your wonderfully worthy intention,
To simply do nothing.

To let your mind wander and your body rest,
To embrace the stillness of the gentle peace that surrounds you or,
To simply flow through the rushing currents of your mindful thoughts,
To be at one with the moments and seconds that tick by
And be at comfortable peace with it all.

Stop and sit for a while today,
Make it your wonderfully worthy intention,
To simply do nothing.

For in that quiet still breath, of not doing anything,
You finally arrive at the place, of being,
Everything.

This Worthy Life

Li-ling Ooi Poetry, Writing inspiration, joy, life, worthiness, worthy 0

To think only thoughts,
that bring you joy,  

To speak only words,
that lift your spirits,  

To act only upon the inspirations
that define the you
of your dreams 

This is what it is,
to be the you,
that you deserve to be.

It takes but one moment

Li-ling Ooi Inspiration, Poetry, Writing grace, time, worthiness 0

For all the pomp and splendour
That each new year brings
It is so easy to forget
That each new day too,
Brings with it
A brand new twenty-four hours
A whole new one thousand, four hundred and forty four minutes
And an immeasurable number of seconds that fill each passing day.

But for all that time means,
To each of us, individually
And to all of us, collectively
It takes but for one moment
To see the whole of your life
As one of the greatest gifts
To ever grace
This already amazing world of ours.
