    Hump Day

    Almost there! Almost where? The weekend? Feeling weakened. Always obsessed, For what's coming next; Not for the Now, Not important, somehow. Midweek blues, Foreboding news; Rushing to the end, Gets you there, my friend. -- MikeMesseroff.com #humpday #presence #mindfulness #meditation #whymeditate #slowdown #lifeishere #lifeisnow #mikemesseroff #personalfreedompoet #personalfreedomcoach #unplug #unplugfromthematrix #mindfulpoetry #now #hereandnow #happynow #happier #weekend #r

    Get There Faster and Faster

    Always striving to get things done, To get "there" faster and faster; Intuition weakens as the 'to-do list' grows, And a schedule becomes your Master. -- MikeMesseroff.com #intuition #flow #todolists #instinct #trust #guidance #schedules #notodolist #noschedule #todolist #schedule #presence #mindfulness #meditation #whymeditate #faster #slowdown #lifeishere #lifeisnow #mikemesseroff #personalfreedompoet #personalfreedomcoach #unplug #unplugfromthematrix #mindfulpoetry #now #h

    Take Time

    Invest in rest, You can't always be going. Time never stops, Ceaselessly flowing. It passes by in action, and in the still. How you spend yours, This is your will. Always being productive... That's not the way. It's incredibly destructive... A life with no play, No time to relax, Or to look around, No time to breathe deep, Or to feel the ground. And when you're tired, Devoid of elation, You can still produce results, But what will be your creation? So as time rolls on, No mat

    One Breath Today

    Could one of my breaths today, Be my last? Contemplating this, Life stops moving so fast. And I'd rather live life, Aware of death on my shoulder, Then wondering where time went, Looking back when I'm older. -- MikeMesseroff.com #mortality #life #appreciation #gratitude #slowdown #relax #breathe #breath #lifeisshort #lifeisnow #hereandnow #appreciatelife #lastbreath #livelife #death #older #wisdom #unplug #unplugfromthematrix #personalfreedomcoach #personalfreedompoet #mikeme

    Rips through my mind

    Rips through my mind

    An uneasy thought rips through my mind, Leaving a wake of destruction behind. The thought is gone but suffering persists, Rushing, I and chase after it, as ego insists. Searching for answers; a donkey after a carrot. Distraught and complaining; a repetitive parrot. But then I remember to meditate, get in flow, The grip loosens in presence, and I let it go. -- MikeMesseroff.com #presence #mindfulness #meditation #thoughts #whymeditate #flow #ego #racingthoughts #calmthemind #b

    The smartest saddest man

    They taught me how to listen and remember, How to fit in and how to earn. Too bad they never taught me how to think, Or how to learn; How to ask questions, How to bring my dreams to fruition, How to listen to internal guidance, How to trust intuition. So, here I am, the smartest, saddest man. I know everything about everything, Just not who I am. -- MikeMesseroff.com #intuition #trust #mindfulness #meditation #whymeditate #trustintuition #intelligence #knowledge #listening #g

    The Myth

    Here is the myth… We’re all lead to believe it. This game has an end, Our goal? To achieve it. But what if, just what if, It is perfectly clear, Our purpose is simple, To have fun while we’re here? We’d follow our passions, Experience life and create love, Heaven here and now, Not a dream far above. -- MikeMesseroff.com #ratrace #heaven #life #heavenisnow #heavenishere #lifeisnow #hereandnow #themyth #thelie #themachine #unplug #unplugfromthematrix #goldengoodie #hoax #fun #f

    Not awake

    Not awake, Not making a peep. Not awake, I am asleep. Not awake, Doing what I'm told, Not awake, Believing what I'm sold. Not awake, Never a question to ask. Not awake, Completing every task. Not awake. Drugged up and dejected. Not awake. Plugged in but disconnected. Not awake, Scared of tomorrow. Not awake, An emptiness filled with sorrow. Not awake, I miss the call. Not awake, I miss it all. -- MikeMesseroff.com #wakeup #life #carpediem #thisislife #lifeisnow #seizetheday #

    Groundhog Day

    Around and around, a monotonous bore. As a suppressed soul shouts "There is more!" But muffled, held down, held under, repressed. A life full of regret...complacent, depressed. So what would life look like feeling fulfilled, dropping strife? Because 'Groundhog Day' is a great movie, but a horrifying life. -- MikeMesseroff.com #groundhogday #ratrace #hamsterwheel #getoffthewheel #unplugfromthematrix #unplug #unwind #slowdown #relax #lifeisnow #hereandnow #freedom #personalfree

    It has to get worse before it gets better

    It has to get worse before it gets better

    Watts warned us fifty years ago and clearly was clever. He said, "It has to get worse before it gets better." Yet you're still pushing numbers, focused on the end, on the earn. Never in the present, your mind racing with concern. Life is serious, so you miss the point, day in and day out. Keep it up, so hopefully, soon you will SHOUT! You'll see it's a scam, it'a a sham, it's a joke. Life's not supposed to be a drag, have a drag, have a toke. This life is a choice and far fro

    Who is aware?

    Who is aware when “I” see through my eyes, And not with them…who’s in them? And knows this is all a disguise. Who is aware when “I” control a thought, Directing and selecting, From a deeper place than was taught. Who is aware that I’m feeling at all, Vibrations of elation, Guide as “I” heed the call. But who makes the call? Who is in there? If you know, won’t you tell me, Who is aware? -- MikeMesseroff.com #awareness #awakening #consciousness #mindfulness #presence #selfreali

    What if this is heaven?

    What if this is heaven? To live life like it is, is to live life with bliss, To live like there's not a single moment to miss. But it's also a simple question some fear...

    It's finally the weekend!

    "It's finally the weekend!" Something the old me would shout, Making five days of the week, Five days I could live without. But then I treated every day as a gift, Savoring life became the trend. Every day became a blessing, When I stopped living life for the 'end'. -- MikeMesseroff.com #tgif #thankgoditsfriday #unplugfromthematrix #presence #weekendpoem #bestweek #bestweekever #bestweekeveryweek #bestdayeveryday #bestdaypoem #bestdayeveryday #bestlife #wakeup #meditate #love

    Enjoy it when you're old

    Trade life for work, Trade time for pay, Get through it now, So later, you'll have time to play. Suffer and sacrifice, Save your pennies like gold, Bottle up your youth, You can enjoy it when you’re old. -- MikeMesseroff.com #enjoylife #lifeisnow #hereandnow #tradingtime #suffer #sacrifice #workhardplayhard #funlater #howtobehappy #behappier #deferredhappiness #deferredlife #presence #mikemesseroff #personalfreedom #personalfreedomcoach #personalfreedompoet #mindfulness #awar
