Mental Traffic
Stop often to notice
the constant traffic
passing through your mind
and again and again
remind yourself
that in this simple act
of awareness
lies a powerful tool
for the enrichment
of your life.© 2015 Dennis Ference
Conscious Choice
Freedom is a conscious choice
that is mine to make,
that has the power
to transcend
all bondage
within and without.© 2015 Dennis Ference
Shine Out
Refuse to constrain
your light within, I plead.
Let it shine out freely
for those of us
who may need it someday
to help make us whole.© 2015 Dennis Ference
Honoring Another
Honoring another
with compassion
and respect is best done
in the balanced context
of honoring and loving
the Whole of which
we all are a part.© 2015 Dennis Ference
The Road to Wholeness
The road to wholeness
is the road of love—
that is, the road of forgiveness,
reconciliation, and self-surrender.
Are you sure you want to go there?© 2015 Dennis Ference
Love’s Call
By refusing
to heed Love’s call
and by walking away,
we run the risk
of settling for
a counterfeit life.© 2015 Dennis Ference
Imperfections
If we dare expose
our imperfections to the light
we might stop tripping
over them in the dark.© 2015 Dennis Ference

So-cial Me-dia
Let us not confuse
“likes” and life.
It behooves us
to recognize
and remember
the difference.© 2015 Dennis Ference
