The Basket of Goodies
In the twilight of the dying
day, your inner child comes out to play
Unbeknownst to you , you
pass her by and leave for her a gift behind
A basket of goodies, to her
delight
You've left her wonderful
gifts shining bright
Eagerly she sits down to
play
Sifting through the remnants
of your day
Oooooh, resentment this is a
big one for sure
You really like resentment,
she'll give you some more
Self deprection, self pity,
guilt and shame
What wonderful treasures,
she'll make more of the same
A little laughter a little
love, a little joy
She'll make a little of
those, boy-oh-boy
Sifting and sorting and
chortling with glee
Your inner child makes more
of what you've decided to be
Enthusiastic and joyful and
eager to please
She makes more of what you have
with ease
She has no judgement
She asks not why
She gives you more with
eagerness and joy
Is it helpful? is it
harmful? She really doesn't care
It's in your basket and you
put it there
And your inner child just
wants to play
Building castles from the
thoughts and expectations of your day
And your castles can be
built with joy and with peace
With thriving, and loving
and grace and ease
Your castles are made of
whatever you choose
Just leave in your basket
the thoughts of your good
So, this night as you drift
off to sleep
Give thought to the things
you wish to keep
Fill up your basket with
wonderful things
And on your waking your
inner child brings
More of whatever you claim
as your truth
Claim now your joy, your
health, your youth
Claim now your love, harmony
and goodwill
Claim now your dreams and
let your doubts be still
And in the twilight of the
dying day
Bless your inner child as
she comes out to play.

Author’s note
This post is inspired by
the work of Neville Goddard. I am now
reading his book - Feeling Is The Secret.
Over and over he
impresses on us the absolute importance of the thoughts we hold as we drift
into sleep. He encourages us to vividly imagine
and feel the reality of our desired circumstance as we drift into sleep. He holds this as the key to transformation in
our lives.
Your subconscious impressions determine
the conditions of your world. The subconscious is not selective; it is
impersonal and no respecter of persons [Acts 10:34; Romans 2:11].
The subconscious is not
concerned with the truth or falsity of your feeling. It always accepts as true
that which you feel to be true. Feeling is the assent of the subconscious to
the truth of that which is declared to be true.
Your feelings create the pattern from which your world is fashioned, and a
change of feeling is a change of pattern.
