My Words for the Day :)

I've forgotten where I've come from
Why it's been done
Why i can't run
I remember what it feels like
In the real life
What a lime light
Can you hear all of the crickets
In the distance
Screaming wisdom
Face the facts this isn't heaven
But you're forgiven
So stop your sinning
Carry with you all your glories
Light your torches
With its furies
Listen for the echoes of the ancients
Through resilience
Hear their silence
Careful with footsteps where you've trodden
See the gardens
Follow pardons
Realize the magic of the moment
Past and future
Non-existent
Freedom from all life's miseries
Makes you dizzy
But it's pretty
There's always a path forward
Just look inward
Under skin's guard
Soak your soul in newfound treasures
They are measured
Through adventures
In a sea of concrete objects
Floating suspects
There's no justice
The journey starts within your new mind
Climb the high vines
And erase time
The life we live is not a race
Nothing to chase
It's all just space

Happiness Quotes

Most people would rather be certain they're miserable, than risk being happy.
– Robert Anthony

Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.
- Mahatma Gandhi

The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance, the wise grows it under his feet.
- James Oppenheim

You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.
- Albert Camus

What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity. These are but trifles, to be sure; but, scattered along life's pathway, the good they do is inconceivable.
– Joseph Addison

Just Some Random Amanda Words :)

When the caterpillar's giving you the thumbs up
Even when the leprechaun is out of luck
You're thinking life might be good enough
To spend some real time with the white dove
*****
Truth is these butterflies
Never want them to subside
Meet me at the end of this rhyme
And kiss me again 'cause it feels like the first time
*****
A blank canvas still contains the world
There's no need to add color or paint
Pause and reflect
Are you happy yet?
What are you waiting for?
It's always within your reach
*****
Namaste, for we are one
Though our journey's just begun
We set our sails and let life fly
With hands entangled and love in our eyes
Let the mystery unravel slow
We'll follow the winds wherever they blow

Baby, Let's Change the World

Mercilessly trying to rack my brain
Drawn to you for reasons I cannot explain
Help me change the world, put it back in place
With our love, hate we will erase

Don't look back
Don't turn around one second, don't think twice
Don't hold back
Remember life is all just how you roll the dice

Everything is Eden in the end
Find your own path back to her garden
Steady now, together take my hand
Water might be cold but babe we're jumping in

Don't look back
Don't turn around one second, don't think twice
Don't hold back
Remember life is all just how you roll the dice

It's puzzling me lately
How much this world is negativity
Our society without sobriety
There's no use for sovereignty
When your people lose faith in humanity
So baby change the world with me
Think how magical it would be

Baby let's change the world
Baby let's change the world
Change the world with me, now

Don't look back
Don't look toward the future, stay right here
Don't hold back
There's no time like the now to make peace appear
Don't look back
Don't turn around one second, don't think twice
Don't hold back
Remember life is all just how you roll the dice

It's just how you roll the dice
So don't hold back, let's change the world
