Thoughts on Dr. Tony’s Poems

Thoughts on  Dr. Tony’s Poems

May is Our Book Month 


Thoughts on Dr. Tony’s Poems

May all the poems I write
Be beautiful.
May they all display God’s love.

Why else use poetry in writing these blogs?
What is the purpose?
For me,
It’s the best way I have found to show my love
For God, for you, my friends, for myself and the universe.
It’s a journey to the Source of all wisdom,
On which you are about to accompany me.

These poems,
They are songs written to capture
The melody of the universe.
Writing these songs is my way to express my love
For You, the Source, for you, my neighbors,
And for you, Dr. Tony.
Don’t forget yourself!

These poem,
They are feeble attempts to put God’s thoughts
Into human form.
My goal in writing these poems
Is to tell God’s story.
It’s a beautiful story,
For you and me.

I am Writing a Book

I am Writing a Book
5-1-16
Sunday
May is Book Month


I am writing a book
Dr. Tony’s
Anxiety Solutions
And
Your Wisdom Within

This book will be made up of blogs I have written daily
Over the past two years
All the blogs are written in a poetry format
I have referred to them in the book as both blogs and poems
Now my task it to identify why I’m writing them

The following is a tentative list of those reasons:
First, this book has been written for you
But in the process of writing it
It is also teaching me
We both learn

My needs are the same as yours
And I hope this book will help both of us
Gain a clearer understanding
Of the meaning of life
This book is written to better our lives

It is about anxiety in our society
A condition that affects each one of us
We are discussing it
Because it is such a common issue
In the lives of so many people

The final part of the book
Addresses the wisdom within
Yours and God’s
Which will help you
Solve your problems in life

Love Letters from God

Love Letters from God
2-19-16
Friday
Another Love Day

Love letters from God
 
I am fortunate to be able to put my name
On each of my blogs
They are all love letters
They appear to come through my pen
To you, my friends
But I really know
They come from God, the author of all love

What a privilege it is
To be part of this transmission
Part of this interchange between God and you
I love you both
I truly am privileged to be the intermediary
Who has the honor of “writing” these blogs
And now the honor of writing a book about them

Love letters from God in the form of blogs
And now a book of love letters
In order to find the time to complete this book for publication
I will periodically write new blogs
As well as updates on the progress of the book
On other days past blogs will be posted
But you will still get a love letter each day

Those past love letters
Will be selected and posted by my talented office manager
Marisa

And my final words
Why do I write these blogs?
I write them because I love being the intermediary
Between all of you and God

Dr. Tony

In the Mind of God

In the Mind of God
2-17-16
Wednesday

In the Mind of God 
I am there
In the mind of God
Where I always have been
I am a thought
In the mind of God

Creation
It involves coming into human existence
But before coming on earth
We existed
In the mind of God

Existence
We all existed forever and ever in the mind of God
Even those who have not yet been created
If God knows all
He knew it from all eternity

Eternity
It is without beginning or end
For all eternity
We have existed in the mind of God
And we always will

Each Blog I Write is for You and Me

Each Blog I Write is for You and Me

Thursday
Caring for Self Day


Each Blog I Write is for You and Me

Today is Caring for Self Day
Each of us must care for our selves
That includes me
I must care for myself
The blogs are meant to teach me as well as you
They’re not meant for me to just write and forget
They’re meant for both of us to apply to our selves

I write each blog
Or do I really do so?
Maybe not
Maybe I am not the fount of wisdom from which they come
Maybe there’s another Source
Each morning I sit down
And the blog just seems to come to me

My blog comes down to me
And then I give it to you
It must be meant for both of us
Whatever comes to us
Must be what I need and possibly what you need
I must apply it to me
Not just to you

My blog comes down to both of us
It is ours
It belongs to the Universe
And in the meantime
You and I can be co-learners
This blog is a gift to you and me
And together we will both learn

Thank you for seeking the wisdom with me
That comes from up above
Dr. Tony

My dear reader
Each blog belongs to you
You have my permission to rewrite it as you wish
It’s yours
Tweak it
Modify it as you wish
Give it your own meaning
It’s the only way it will work—your way
Put your own beauty into it

My dear reader
Each blog belongs to you
Adapt it to your needs
It’s yours
It was written for you to do as you wish with it
Do it!
Play around with it
Do it with tomorrows or yesterday’s blog
Or even today’s

My dear reader
Each blog belongs to you
So does your life
Rewrite it
Make it as you wish it to be
Give your life the meaning you wish it to have
God gives you permission to do that
I encourage it
It is totally in your hands

It’s yours to do
Dr. Tony

From Where Do These Blogs Come?

From Where Do These Blogs Come?

Tuesday

They come from heaven
They come from the Source
From where else could they possibly come?
They come from the source of all wisdom
These blogs are mine

They come to me through Dr. Tony
And because they come now
They must be just what I need now
Everything that comes to me now
Is for me to learn from right now

They are gifts
Not for tomorrow or yesterday
But for today
They are for me
They are all mine

These blogs are gifts from the Source
They are given to me
To be used as I wish
To be used as I need
They are my gifts

Thank you my God
The Source of all wisdom
Thank you for this poem
And for all you give to me, your child
I am so grateful to you

With Love
Dr. Tony

My Blogs are Messages of Love

My Blogs are Messages of Love
2-8-16
Monday
Love Day
 
My Blogs are Messages of Love

That’s all I want them to be
Messages of love

I couldn’t imagine a more appropriate goal
For every single blog I write
Than to provide a message of love

I couldn’t think of a better reason to write this blog
Than to write it as an expression of love
It’s what the world needs
More love

I hope I will never forget to make my poems
Messages of love
From the Source of all love
Through this writer
God’s messenger of love

What an honor it is to be that messenger of love
The one who gives to you 
God’s messages of love
And who loves you as well
Because he cannot give you the love of the Universe
Without loving you

Love
It’s the only treasure I have to give to you
It’s my reason for writing this poem
But the ultimate goal is
For you and I to learn to proclaim Our love
To the entire Universe
Through the loving way we live our lives

More on Wisdom

More on Wisdom
2-3-16
Wednesday
The Wise Man—The Wise Woman


More on Wisdom
Being wise
It’s so special
It entails a high level of human thinking
It involves thinking rationally
Being aware of emotions
But not compelled to act on them

The Wise One
Possesses common sense
Considers without bias all aspects of an issue
Thinks carefully before making a decision
Seeks insight from other wise persons
As well as from within
And after much thought makes his own decision

Becoming Wise
The process makes for a beautiful journey
It rarely necessitates life and death decisions
It will involve every day issues
With decisions made carefully and thoughtfully
And the wisdom entailed will contribute to your happiness

The search for wisdom
Makes for a beautiful journey

Happiness Is the Goal of all My Blogs

Happiness
Is the Goal of all My Blogs
1-30-16
Saturday
Happiness Day

The Goal of all my blogs
Is happiness
I chose that goal
Because God is happiness
Then I thought, why not be like him?
Why not be happy?
He must have created us to be happy, not sad
I’m sure it is our mandate from God to be happy
How fortunate we are!

Happiness
What more can there be to life?
What better gift can flow from my blogs than happiness?
When we are happy
We are in touch with the Source
Who is love and peace as well as happiness
All three exist in one another’s company
Love, peace and joy
They can never be separated
They are the three loyal sisters
Who are always together

Happiness
What goal could be better?
Than writing each blog
With the purpose
Of making people happy
Happiness
You couldn’t ask for more
And what more could be given to you?
Than love, peace and Joy

Find happiness and you find God

Happiness is for Today

Happiness is for Today
1-9-16
Saturday
Happiness Day



Happiness is for today
It’s not for tomorrow
Because tomorrow doesn’t exist
So focus on today
It exists

Happiness is for today
It’s not for yesterday
Because yesterday will never again exist
Today is the day that exists
Focus only on it

Be happy this day
If there is anything you need to plan
For tomorrow
Plan it today
There’s no better day

Be happy this day
If there is anything you can undo
About yesterday
Do it today
It’s the only day to do it

The moral of this story is:
You don’t have to be anxious about yesterday or tomorrow
Any issue you have
Needs to be dealt with today
Today is all you have to work with

What a lovely story
Today is your day

I Want to be Happy

I Want to be Happy
1-7-16
Thursday
Caring for Self Day



I want to be happy
Doesn’t everybody?
Then why aren’t we all happy
If everyone wants it?

It must be hard to be happy
Is that because we make it hard?
Or because we don’t try hard enough?
Why?

I want to be happy
Maybe most people are happy to some degree
So maybe all of us can be happier
To a higher degree

Maybe happiness is a process
I can be happier
What can I do to make myself happier?
It may be worthwhile to find the answer

Maybe happiness is my decision
It may be up to me entirely
To make that decision
To create a better and happier life

Let’s do it
Let’s make our lives happier
One little step at a time
It’s up to us

And I guess it’s up to me
To write about it
I will!

Dr. Tony
