As He Grows
…. He knows as I -do.
He knows as I …. As well as I know —
He knows more, he knows better…
As he grows….
He knows – So much, so much more….
As he grows I know …
I must say, ‘sorry’….
As he grows……..
As he grows, I know -apologies are due…
Apologies to – you …
More than a few.
I know that I –
I must- Authentically plea
& say, ‘…sorry….’, as he grows.
Yes, I will ….
I will say, “…. I’m sorry,
—-I – am — sorry”.
Sorry is due – -to you,
my little man, my young ace ….
For you …. You are the one.
You are the earth, the furnace that burns,
— the future —- …
It’s entirely yours.
Any wrong teachings must be discarded, toss them all away….
The excess of that weight is never a necessary weight to hold….
Burdensome & unnecessary —
release … .
As he grows I will insist that he take the runway & jet off in flight—-
………. fly.
Fly my son, you….
You were born to …
fly.
As he grows I will insist. ..
…. Dump all the insistence in every bit of suggestion- to him….
– Insisting that he —. .. … fly
—spread his bold, colorful, brilliant & wide
Well stretched – wings … as he flies….
as he… takes flight.
Fly, I must insist
-that he….
That he fly further.
Further than I ever could.
This is one of many things
I want … for him ….
Must I dictate or say???
-I -must say,
I -owe it to -him.
I must also speak of challenge,
Challenge –
challenges will roar through caves & villages
Oh, they do, they will
…. They’ll arrive to stir up your senses.
Stay calm, this I must plainly state, I shall articulate this particular request.
As he grows -I must inform him.
Challenges ………. they- -to – do come.
They really do.
Challenges are often unexpected but if we push
Push ahead & push forth,
push past our dead, dreadful, unnecessary weight- we can push my man ….
Now – push …. Anything can be outdone —-
push and push —ahead,
Ahead of foes, ahead of hate …
….push forward.
…..
we’ll defeat these battles,
every last fight is – yours.
Our challenges are for -us,
we can face them down.
Stare them down & defeat- each & every single challenge that comes.
We can illustrate, sketch out the hills
—we will …. we will climb hills…
this means
We…….. we -always have the choice..
Our choice and chance,
our chance to be –
Become.
As he grows…. It shall be stated that we have a chance to design our own Mental framework
This…. Shall be understood.
It is ours. It is our mind –
Just as we own our challenges.
I must say, the walls of this life are adorned with challenge.
Run after these challenges,
chase them, hunt, prey on them as a polar bear…. like a bear— can.
Many types of real challenges,
many variations
Dynamic sets of inter-related, true challenges
They are —ahead.
Waiting, they rest, they stay
before us …
As he grows….
I must say —
All of this.
We see different kinds of situations;
…. situations will peer in our direction.
These challenges are for -us,
Specifically for – us.
we’ll stare them down and let them know
Inform them that we’re ready
what we have is what we need,
we’re ready for it all. All.
All of it.
As he grows … he should know that it is… – inside of us. I must say, it is —inside of us.
Yes, always look inside….
As he grows…
It lives inside: the power, strength, solution…
….it’s inside.
Inside of Us
‘Inside of us is everything’, this I must tell him.
As he grows…
We have everything we need
-inside our pumping aortic chambers.
We are full of all the good stuff;
life, blood, ideas, spirit,
-we are ready for anything.
If he asks, “anything, papa?”, …. “Anything???”
I must tell him, “yes”… “………anything”.
As he grows….
He should know.
We are ready; always.
I must tell him, “we are strong”, ….. if he looks quizzically, I must reply and tell him, “I know, we are thin… ….
but
….we are strong.” I’ll tell him this emphatically. “Yes. …
‘Yes, it’s true, “we are strong”.
“But papa….” He may softly reply….
As he grows…
‘What about those thoughts that dash like a scurrying rodent all through our head-spaces?’
‘Do they belong in our headspace? ..
in OUR headspace?’
“What do we do when thoughts keep jumping around?”…. A nearing thought that inspires such frustration.
“My boy…”, I answer with a smile.
Our Thoughts
I must tell him about our thoughts.
Inside of us lives a whole universe of dashing thoughts that scramble through our headspace. These thoughts, though they move like rodents on densely populated sidewalks, they just want space.
“Give them space, my son… space to roam.”
I must tell him….
“Yes, my son, allow this. Accept that thoughts are pushing, dashing and spinning through your cerebral cycles constantly…
Yes……let them …. Let them go…….
Let them -be.”
Quiet comes …. …
After the thoughts, we can then find a calm peaceful quietude.
Inner Quiet
I must explain something about wealth.
I have to tell him…
The most valuable commodity,
The greatest asset ever,
ever,
the greatest imaginable asset he can claim.
It comes with quiet……. “When you sit still, close your eyes, release….
Quiet is possible.”
This is something I need to share…. I must say this
-to our dear, precious living angel.
Quiet is possible, my boy, it can be achieved.
“It’s true”.
“You — can find quiet”, I must tell him.
“Be still, my son, stay quiet & just listen.”
You …. You, …. You Can achieve this.
in truth…. Indeed. …
I have.
It’s true. It is all true.
