Steps to Awaken Your Inner Force

Blessed Words of Songbirds…

Have you heard birds sing lately?
Let your words and actions ring greatly
every day you are alive!

~E. Lang

Some of us are singing in the car,

doesn’t matter who you are,

let your world resound with joy –

go ahead and revive

your deepest desire to thrive!

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

There’s no reason we shouldn’t strive

towards our highest potential

derived from the inside

brought out to arrive and jive

a trillion miles high.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Have you heard birds sing lately?

Let your words and actions ring greatly

every day you are alive!

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

So keep the flame inside alive

even if you feel off track,

even if you feel held back:

There’s no one else on earth like you,

only YOU can bring to life

your biggest dreams, it’s true!

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Be patient and humble –

life is full of tumbles,

but no need to grumble,

we all at times stumble.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Have you heard birds sing lately?

Let your words and actions ring greatly

every day you are alive!

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Make sure you keep a journal

for dreams and goals internal

it helps gather thoughts

and ideas become organized,

making them more apparent on paper

so plans can be comprised then realized.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Goals and objectives,

strategies and tactics

are effective directives

it’s okay to sometimes turn full detective

as long as you have a connective objective

that is of God and You reflective, not circumspective.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Have you heard birds sing lately?

Let your words and actions ring greatly

every day you are alive!

_______________________________________________________________________________

Problems come and problems go –

they’re part of life as we know,

what can be done is circumvent,

there are many ways to repent!

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Problems are opportunities in workpants

see the “lesson learning” chance,

everything is “figure-out-able,”

it’s time to head to the round table,

put all your cards on it

and always keep your heart safe and stable.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Have you heard birds sing lately?

Let your words and actions ring greatly

every day you are alive!

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Be insistent

to stay consistent and persistent.

We all have the need to achieve –

no time to grieve but be relieved

it’s vital to believe not self deceive

why not find the ace up your sleeve?

_______________________________________________________________________________

At this hour

it’s time to grow,

and time to empower

so you can show your glow

and accept your superpower.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

It’s time to let it shower of Love, Peace and Kindness!

Blessings,

Evana.

Steps to Awaken Your Inner Force

The Creative Life Force…follow your heart to the son’s shine!

When you know

you’re not always

gonna be around;

___________________________________

You just gotta gotta gotta do

what you neeeed to –

Daddy said:

“Do what you can’t live without,”

so get to work and stop the pout.

___________________________________

Many a day seems like

we’re waiting to get back –

back to our masterpieces

so we don’t lose track.

__________________________________

Lose track of who we are inside,

lose track of the plans and dreams alive.

__________________________________

Alive we are most when at work

deep in thought in overdrive

trying so hard to thrive

and always when getting back to it

having to revive what we are living inside,

_________________________________

Every time it seems I try –

I start, I begin.

It starts as a thought, a reflection,

a vision that’s full of meaning.

_________________________________

I get in second gear,

get all excited –

and then –

then duty calls

to go –

again.

___________________________________

We are all living it.

it’s in the life of artists,

dreamers, creators,

writers and music people.

___________________________________

In everything that is created,

God is there so elated,

being patient in our court,

cheering us on in support.

____________________________________

When we get back

to our expressive work,

what comes natural to us.

again he is there

always in his ways

he is there for us,

this we can trust.

___________________________________

We are closer to him

when we do go(o)d works.

He works through us

and helps us through too.

___________________________________

The older we get,

the more we may

understand –

ourselves and him

if only we let it in.

___________________________________

The paths we chose at first

may not be the chosen ones.

but if we find it –

what’s ours and begin

to go where it takes us

with no thoughts of a win,

where we feel the most

heart pull and strength

from within,

that’s the place you’ll be in tune

without being plugged in.

__________________________________

When we figure out how

we can help others of sin,

God’s road may come with some spin,

to him we’re all his children akin

so find your place within.

__________________________________

The push, the pull, the tug,

the struggle is real.

God asks us to give it to him –

surrender and kneel.

__________________________________

The guidance we need is right there

as long as we follow his light,

for his children he always cares,

his light shines very bright!

__________________________________

He won’t ever let you down,

goes where you do

knows all the towns

and can shine through You too.

Be blessed on your journey,

you’re loved more than you know,

remember with God

you’ll be ever aglow!

Blessings,

Steps to Awaken Your Inner Force

Your Soul Is Meant to Soar…

Invest in Your Best and Grow to Glow!

If you can’t control,

let it roll –

don’t let it take a toll

on your body, mind and soul.

It’s always good to console

with a friend or friendly soul,

get it off your chest

and take a rest,

let it be a a test to manifest

only your best to progress,

no stress, be blest.

Once we surrender to God’s speed,

our shackles are loosened and freed.

God’s always in control

that’s what’s true –

it’s the good news

that helps us out of the blues.

Invest in your best,

be open to others stressed,

think about how you can help,

yet always be true to yourself.

Invest in your best

and never mind the past,

grow forward and progress –

that’s the way ahead with no regrets.

Invest in your best,

give way to the pressure

that you take on as stressor,

be there for others and your woes

will be lesser.

Don’t ration your compassion

with yourself or others,

realize you matter

in all your own troubles.

Keep your love in check with one another,

let the ego go and not be bothered.

What makes a difference in one’s world

is how you live and how you think.

It always helps to be patient and humble

this helps prevent situations to crumble.

We can never really know

what a person is going through-

it doesn’t hurt to listen with intent

we could learn something new.

It helps to aim to understand,

practice patience and self control,

then you too can grow to glow!

Bless and be blessed,

Evana.

Vessels On a Stormy Sea…

Vessels on a stormy sea,

are tossed around unexpectedly

what can they do

but trust their faith-

hold on to it

to see it through.

Vessels on a stormy sea

is how we feel emotionally

before we find our strength –

the kind that moves mountains

to any size or length.

Faith and hope

are deeply rooted

in our needs to cope.

Wishing you Faith, Hope, Peace and Love,

Evana.

🌊 When the Tide is right or wrong – 👉Count me in 💖

When the tide is right –

when the tide is wrong

don’t wait too long,

no one is You,

that’s your superpower too –

keep pulling through

waiting won’t improve you.

 

While the tide is wrong

stay strong –

and think of the ocean song.

Don’t wait for your ship

to come in, just swim!

 

No matter what you’re going through:

“Damn those torpedo’s, full speed ahead!”

Don’t let your mind tell you otherwise,

don’t leave your unique story unread.

 

Have a bad day –

start now

feel tired, bad or sick,

better be quick –

thoughts and body

push aside:

this is your ride,

this is your time.

 

High above flies the dove,

seek the things that are of love –

scout it out even during drought,

without a doubt you will grow a sprout.

 

At any age, any stage –

begin to engage

you will be freed

of your own cage.

 

Be the change

you want to see,

it can help you feel

more free,

always find a way

to see more positivity!

 

Remember to question:

“Will this

(what I dream to do),

contribute

to the greater good?”

then find a way to pursue!

direct your attention and

lessen the “could and should.”

 

“The purpose of life

is a purposeful life,

we only get what we give,

let’s not waste time in strife!”

 

Rid yourselves of thoughts

that weigh heavy on your mind,

that’s the only way

you’ll be free to fly!

 

Be forgiving, let things go,

this is the best way

to grow.

 

The grass is greener

where you water it

so don’t sit

and go for it!

 

Take your horse by the reins,

blood runs through our veins –

stick to your plan,

keep up, show up –

you can!

 

The tide is below,

the dove is above. 

the grass is where we land our feet

and the horse gives us strength to compete.

 

 

Count me in…

 

Count me in

take me for a spin,

take me through the rain

on a midnight train.

 

Count me in,

I’m ready to win

in this world of sin

it’s time to light my flame.

 

Burning in me

are my deepest desires,

they’re not just small fires.

 

Gimme a shake

right through my break

how much can one take,

before needing a lake?

 

A lake, some woods,

furry friends –

away from “should’s”

 

Burning in me

are my deepest desires,

they’re not just small fires.

 

Count me in.

 

One ☝️ is to begin,

two create a stronger win,

together we can build bridges

and take out our wounds’ stitches.

 

Go through your closet of pain

see what you find lurking,

what’s keeping you from gain

and what is and isn’t working.

 

All of us carry some past along 

of where we started and came from,

unpack the baggage with us that stayed,

unravel the problems left in the shade.

rearrange and overcome,

it’s then you’ll see more light of the sun.

 

After some self-learning,

your wheels will begin turning.

A new path will be cleared,

the new you won’t be yearning,

instead, my dear:

you’ll be doing what you’re meant to do

and break through to the brand-new YOU.

 

“Beauty begins

the moment

you decide

to be

yourself.”

Many Blessings,

Evana.

Own the Door that’s Yours…

Own the door that’s yours,

no more standing at shores,

just keep the good stuff brewing,

continue your flow of renewing

again each time with pursuing –

and always keep in mind your goal.

In time you’ll be lead to the right door.

Open the door,

there’s more to life.

Open the door,

don’t think twice –

a short time lives a life.

You’ll know by the light you feel

that’s it is for you and real –

you deserve it

you are a big deal:

now take your light and

keep it bright!

Find within what tribe you reside,

some quality people to be by your side,

and look for people who don’t hide

but feel pride to be of a good kind:

those who step up ⬆️

not talk down,

those that help others

chase away the frown.

It’s okay to open the door,

you are meant for so much more!

🙌 Be blessed,

Evana.

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.

Part I: Just a Woman Passing Through…

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!

Inspire Positive Change!

Find Common Ground!

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.

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.

This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is pexels-photo-1274260.jpeg

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.

The Real You is Truth

E-coli, Corona, Ebola, West Nile,

What world do we live in,

or has it gone wild?

I know not what’s next but

the smile on my face,

no reason to dread

or be a sad case.

~

Today in this world

that’s uncommonly nuts,

the unknowns quadrupled

in size and mistrust.

~

Each day in this world

is ours to create –

breathe deep and take in

all lessons that shape –

a beautiful sculpture of

heroes with capes.

~

As day comes to end

to a sweet evening glow,

I hope you succeeded

in helping others know,

we are all connected

above and below,

may God’s love surround you

like an invisible glow.

~

🙌 We are blessed…

Fear is an Untruth

In today’s world, fear is all around us and a commonplace, yet it is not real. Fear is a purely imagined “worst case scenario” that hasn’t happened, is untrue and inauthentic. Those trained by the military and other service men and women are taught to stay calm during times of crisis. People who panic are those most vulnerable.

Living with fear continuously is a recipe for disaster and affects our mental capacity to absorb new information. This fear develops into becoming impulsive and emotional which leads to being negative in judging and decision making. Instead of being safer with fear, it actually weakens our immune systems.

Anytime you experience fear think about whether it’s true, then think of the actual truth (reality) by imagining the “best case scenario” and how that will feel. Enjoy the feeling of faith and trust by doing the best you can and leaving the rest to God.

Let go and let God.

💖Many blessings,

Evana.
