Ever been tied in knots

   I was recently 

   I discovered the source

      The Nots of life

They are like commandments

   We are not to do this or that

   We are not to think this or that

   We are not to feel this or that

   We are not to say this or that

      If we do there will be scary consequences

Once I allowed myself to Not be commanded by others

   I found freedom

      Instead of not being me I could now be who I am

Poor

   Depending less on me and more on God

Mourner

   Feeling the sadness of loss in life

Humble

   It isn’t all about me

Co Creator

   It is about me on God

Merciful

   Others are doing the best they can

Pure

   A listener to the still small voice

Peaceful

   Nothing matters but the circus

Persecuted

   For saying yes to God

I’m no longer tied in knots

   Because I have let go of the Nots of life

   And those who are the keepers of the Nots
