revelations by yoko ono

I love yoko ono. Her poetry, words, art and music inspire me. The way she views the world, looks beyond what can be seen. The way she challenges the status quo and what is considered the norm. Her message of peace and love.

The poem below is from her website 100 acorns.

Revelations

Bless you for your anger.

For it is a sign of rising energy.

Direct not to your family, waste not on your enemy.

Transform the energy to versatility

And it will bring you prosperity.

Bless you for your sorrow

For it is a sign of vulnerability.

Share not with your family, direct not to yourself.

Transform the energy to sympathy

And it will bring you love.

Bless you for your greed

For it is a sign of great capacity.

Direct not to your family. Direct not to the world.

Transform the energy to giving.

Give as much as you wish to take,

And you will receive satisfaction.

Bless you for your jealousy

For it is a sign of empathy

Direct not to your family, direct not to your friends.

Transform the energy to admiration

And what you admire

Will become part of your life

Bless you for your fear

For it is a sign of wisdom.

Do not hold yourself in fear.

Transform the energy to flexibility

And you will be free

From what you fear.

Bless you for your search of direction

For it is a sign of aspiration.

Transform the energy to receptivity

And the direction will come to you.

Bless you for the times you see evil.

Evil is energy mishandled and it feeds on your support.

Feed not and it will self-destruct.

Shed light and it will cease to be.

Bless you for the times you feel no love.

Open your heart to life anyway

and in time you will find

love in you.

Bless you, bless you, bless you.

Bless you for what you are.

You are a sea of goodness, a sea of love.

Count your blessings every day for they are your protection

Which stands between you and what you wish not.

Count your curses and they will be a wall

Which stands between you and what you wish.

The world has all that you need

And you have the power

to attract what you wish.

Wish for health, wish for joy.

Remember you are loved.
