Part III: Just a Woman passing through…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I’m just a woman passing through,

and feel real good ‘bout what I do –

It’s a feeling that can’t be bought

and a class that should be taught.

________________________________________________

Doing good does good vibration,

no medicine, no alteration –

no credit card, no big vacation:

once you get tuned into the right station,

You can affect the entire nation!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It’s okay…

that I ran out of shower 🚿 gel,

oh, well,

I’ll use what we got, it’ll do –

after my shower I’ll still feel like new.

_______________________________________

It’s okay…

I’m gonna smell like a man,

oh, well,

save money to throw in a can

of the neighboring music man.

________________________________________

It’s okay…

to have a lil’ less,

oh, well,

give others under stress,

know God’s with you in a mess,

you’re abundantly blessed. 🙌

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When you realize you’re lighting up,

no longer you’ll be living in a cup,

this is your time of change –

the time is NOW to rearrange

in your life of utter strange –

Suddenly, all is clear

and forward

is the only way to steer!

___________________________________________

Know that you are not alone –

alone, but yet together

we all depend on each other.

Don’t ever forget

to check up on your sister and brother.

Rise from Hardships to Victory!

Part II: Just A Woman Passing through…

I’m just a woman passing through,

I’ve made mistakes like all of You.

Somehow, I did not fit like a shoe,

so I stayed on the conveyer sad and blue.

I tried my best to be good and learn –

many times I caught a burn

didn’t understand the constant trials

yet kept faith for better tomorrows.

As God was with me all along,

he showed me life was better with a song –

singing loudly when in pain,

praying harder in the rain.

If there were no tears,

rainbows would not exist –

I can see clearly

and am abundantly blessed!

God has a plan,

a reason for it all:

to learn, to serve,

to answer his call.

With a shield and a glow

walking through life in the know

every obstacle, every problem

is taken up with him.

The struggle is not ours

in this world of sin.

I’m here to help all who ask

and all who care –

who don’t procrast,

and those who dare

embark on the most important journey

of lifelong learning and growth within

Are You ready for the “best is yet to come?”

We’re all deserving of this, please don’t run:

Together, wild and free –

we will learn and sing

and raise his name with glee,

we will grow in truth and love

abundantly.

Who’s with me?

Who’s jumping the train?

don’t be afraid,

you’ll grow a mane!

What matters most is how You see Yourself

We all have the potential to be Go(o)d like and divine.

It’s our choice to strive for excellence

and be de(light)full.

What You see is how You live,

and what You think is how You live.

Once You start changing your perspective

towards him and yourself,

everything turns to gold.

Know that You are loved!💖

🙌Keep shining brightly,

Evana.

I’m just a woman passing through,

I’ve made mistakes like all of You.

I look deeply, see clearly,

learn intently and grow wisely.

I have learned from those highest –

of those above and those below,

I’ve seen a lot, only God knows.

My reason for being is to serve ALL:

all who listen,

all who hear and

all those with open minds.

I aim to help You all to shine!

This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is img_2628-2.jpg

I’m here to light your candles,

ignite your flames –

to help You understand no blames.

Many a person say:

“But what can one person do?”

One person can affect all

of those around them

which creates an exponential shift –

may we not very long drift.

One person may be the loneliest number,

but it only takes one person to begin

a revolution through others with them

Never stop being your best,

this sets us apart from the rest,

as humans we are all put through a test –

stand strong in your faith,

You are blessed!

We are all meant to lead each other to…

Rise from Hardships to Victory!

Keep Shining Brightly,

Evana.

P.S.: Stay tuned for Part II

Who is Evana and What is EvanaLife?

My story…

I was born in Adrian, Michigan to Janet Marlene (Bleich) and Albert Hermann Lang

My father was a farmer, a teacher and an award winning photographer, an avid historian and naturalist with a great fascination of these things. Our Mom was the first in her family to obtain a degree, and after she started teaching for a while even bought her own home independently, used to serve as the President of the Farmers’ wives club and strongly believed in music’s power of healing as therapy. My late parents were both teachers. Dad’s Master’s was in chemistry, and Mothers’ in biology.

Our Dad would play the airhorn in the morning to wake us up and our Mother sang while washing dishes. They share a beautiful story together.

My story branches off theirs yet interweaves itself with an array of similarities and repetitions in our histories. I experienced many adventures and unusual things in my life and love to tell these stories, theirs and mine. We are all a part of the big picture, the one we share together as human history.

Find Beauty in Stillness

Been a foreigner, been a friend,

walked far, lived in a car – been transient.

I was young, fearless and kind,

thankfully not blind

to be open to the world’s love and crime –

the dangers, the lies,

the Beauty and the Devine.

By foot or by wheels, to each their own,

whichever way appealed to me at the time.

Be careful who you show a smile –

disguised under a façade you may find

not a go(o)d kind.

Photo by Daria Shevtsova on Pexels.com

Wonderful, magical times

are found in those who shine,

once you learn to tell them apart,

eventually you get smart

and if you continue to let life’s trials all be lessons,

you too will rise to become wise –

“be still and listen, be slow to answer,

slow to anger and quick to forgive.”

~ E. Lang

Keep on a disguise

so you can be shielded

from the hidden trickeries

that become ties –

ties that bind and ties that keep –

precious secrets and

forgotten lies.

Don’t believe anything

but the truth that’s inside,

not my story, not yours –

the only one needs not defending nor defining

and takes no sides.

Photo by Md Towhidul Islam on Pexels.com

Beautiful and still is the language of God,

for only in silence can you hear your hearts’ beat.

Cherish your blessings, love with all your heart

and know that true strength lays in gentleness,

not deceit.

Breathe Love, live Love,

and practice Love –

every day!

🙌 Blessings and keep shining brightly,

🌺Evana.

Mother Earth Day Cry

WE ARE ONE

~ by E. Lang

————————————————————————

Mother Earth needs us:

connect the dots

and get up and trust!

————————————————————————

Our Mother Earth needs us,

why don’t you think that’s just –

we’re all here together

in each and every weather.

We’re not made to rust

nor turn to leather –

Our Earth needs us,

in God we Trust.

Photo by T Leish on Pexels.com

————————————————————————

Don’t care about black or white,

blue or red –

rather think about life

than death.

Let’s put our differences to rest –

that’s our Earth at its best!

Get Up! Stand Up! Speak Up!

for You, for Me, for ALL.

————————————————————————

We don’t have to listen to the chatter

as the world continues to fabricate the matter –

it’s your choice to either listen

or follow in the wallow

of yet another swallowed.

————————————————————————

What truly makes change

are the people

who help rearrange

the furniture in the house.

————————————————————————

Stir it Up, Shake it Up,

gently Disrupt.

Fight for our Change –

Fill Your Cup

and Buckle Up!

————————————————————————

The Angels agree,

the planets align,

what is new? what is new?

Something quite divine!

————————————————————————

This Earth is All Yours And All Mine,

Let’s treat it like our Mother

and shine!

🙌

If we, we, the people

could change, change the world.

————————————————————————

We’re just some humans passing through –

we all make mistakes like all of you.

Life is brief and time’s a thief,

as dots we come,

as dust we leave,

together –

We Are One.

————————————————————————

In everything you do

think of God and your Mother Earth too!

Namaste,

Evana.

Tiptoeing through the tulips…

Photo by Tuu1ea5n Kiu1ec7t Jr. on Pexels.com

————————————————————————

As I tiptoe gently through the tulips,

I make sure I don’t disrupt their beauty.

As I walk softly through a crowd of people,

I quietly listen without judging and talk –

very little.

————————————————————————

Sometimes it takes more space for us

to separate ourselves from each other

and ourselves to see what’s apparent

to others looking in.

Photo by Francesca Zama on Pexels.com

————————————————————————

Take time to reflect…

Are you operating within your own authenticity?

Is anything you’re doing upsetting you?

Are you happy with your current choices and most recent decisions?

Do you feel at all that anything seems “off”?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You are not alone, you are never alone.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Trust your Faith

but not your feelings –

think less about self

and more about serving.

Practice Gratefulness,

Joy and Love

and you will rise above!

————————————————————————

Peace is ours – for the taking,

our heaven awaits us here and now –

it’s much nicer why wait?

It’s never too late.

————————————————————————

Thoughts of a conflicting couple…

I like to move mountains,

but you complain that they even exist

and don’t even see the same mountains as I.

————————————————————————

You like to point fingers,

I look for common ground.

You find fault in others,

I see only beauty.

Photo by Pixabay on Pexels.com

————————————————————————

If you want to see a change,

do not look into trying to make someone

view the world as you –

it is not your job, nor your duty.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The time for truth is now and always.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It is not easy to understand those hurting,

those hungry and those in pain –

but take a trip away and

listen to their stories, you might be amazed –

at how similar they are to you and I.

Losing Inches, Gaining Pounds…

Losing Inches, gaining pounds –

how are you feeling this time around?

how does your life song sound?

————————————————————————

Is it peppy, choppy, but yet smooth?

Are you finding your own groove?

There’s no one in this world 

you need to prove:

as long as you’re alive, 

as long as you can move.

————————————————————————

Love God, others and yourself,

don’t put “You” on a shelf –

Find the fun 🤩 in everything,

life is at most a blessing.

————————————————————————

Getting older, growing bolder –

carrying the world upon your shoulders 

life is such a beautiful song.

————————————————————————

We weather the storms,

no matter your norms –

with faith it can be overcome.

————————————————————————

Losing Inches, gaining pounds,

wisdom grows as time goes round.

Abundant Blessings,

Sea Stars Washing Ashore…

Stars above and stars below

watch in wonder all aglow,

Naked eyes can see those high,

goggles view the ones below.

Sea Stars washing ashore –

seeing some, then many more,

What a wonder, what a sight –

such a beautiful delight.

Photo by Daniel Torobekov on Pexels.com

Sea Stars like us –

get a little lost in life.

We are still beautiful as we are vulnerable,

there are times we trust too soon –

are in more danger,

other times we are too cautious .

Once we learn to trust our God to take over,

we lose the need to worry.

With God’s help they find back to sea,

they journey home with glee –

One by one they’re back together –

and free.

Keep shining ever so brightly –

Blessings, Peace and Love,

Evana.

Compassion, New Perspective, Steps to Awaken Your Inner Force

A Sky Full Of Stars

In a rowboat alone on a deep, dark night

with a sky full of stars

magically aligned,

I let myself go in a dreams lullaby,

taken by such vast beauty through these eyes,

dreaming about all earths miracles,

waking up with a cry –

all of nature moves me!,

without nature,

we die.

When we learn of the truth inside us,

we sometimes go astray,

why do we tell ourselves untruths that hide us?

We are perfect as we are today.

We can do so much more than we want to believe,

open up, spread your wings,

smile and be – a You Who Sings!

Know Your Truth…

Being Impeccable (sinless) With Your Word

In Don Miguel Ruiz’s book “The Four Agreements,” a Toltec Wisdom book, he describes us as having agreements with ourselves and others. Anything we accept as true, is an agreement we make with others and/or with ourselves. If we believe someone who speaks bad words against us, we are accepting it as a truth in agreement against ourselves and this is a sin. This sin begins with self-rejection in which is everything you feel, believe or say goes against yourself.

He talked about how animals only pay once for their mistakes, yet humans pay 1000’s of times. Our belief system is responsible for abusing ourselves as the judge and the victim. We ourselves are our worst judge and critic. Ruiz said: “The Word is a force you cannot see, yet you can see the manifestation of the force in your life. You know you’re using the word against yourself if you’re suffering with guilt, sadness or fear and using it impeccably if you’re happy.”

Being impeccable (sinless) with your word is the most difficult yet powerful agreement. Your word is God for “In the beginning was the word,” a gift from God. Through this word, we manifest everything through expressing creative power. All of our knowledge, everything you think, every opinion and every belief is created with the word. By using words, we create belief systems and entire life stories are made of words.

We use words with our thoughts; expressing feelings, opinions, ideas, remembering the past and imagining the future. Our very own personal life story is created by words. Your word is what you tell yourself, agree to accept as the truth, then believe. It’s a force that you have the power to create. Use your word as a beautiful story instead of misusing it and its force energy will be heavenly sinless.

Words give us the opportunity to create a better story. When you find yourself in thoughts that are troubling think out loud: “Is this true?” 95% of our beliefs are lies we believe and this is how we create drama. Instead of doubting yourself, doubt the lies. After each “untruth” is dispelled, it dispels the negative power and raises faith and good vibes.

Use your word to express truth in every thought, every action and every belief to create your best life story.

Let your story shine!

Blessings,

Evana.

Don’t Ration Compassion…

Photo by lalesh aldarwish on Pexels.com

I’ve seen through others’ eyes,

suffered many dies,

been there with those suffering pain –

feel with them in their demise,

see in them – shame.

————————————————————————

Instead of fearing them as “the other,”

I listen to their stories, and they become real,

then we see them as kin,

so nice to see from them – a grin –

sometimes just being there for them is a win.

Photo by Rodolfo Quiru00f3s on Pexels.com

What peoples I’m talking about

need not defining –

everyone who’s fallen down

and not shining –

sometimes too proud to seek help from another,

people like us can stand up to be a good sister or brother.

“Alone, but yet together, we all depend on each other.” ~ E. Lang
