the travesty in our illusions

If we all saw each other as one, as ourselves, we wouldn't be so shocked when someone else has a good idea.


We would be so shocked when someone else understands something we don't.


We wouldn't be so shocked when someone who ranks lower than enlightens us to something we hadn't seen before.


We are all amazing. We are all capable of amazing things.


It's a travesty that we still build these walls, walls that separate I from you, I from nature, you from I.


And we continue to build those walls, day after day.




If we could only realize that all we need is to love ourselves, and be our main man, we wouldn't seek so hard in our outer environment for the sheer glance of recognition from another. The life force, the energy, the control, the spirit and love that we give away from our own selves when we lead our lives in this way only throws stones at our glass empire. We are left in the rubble, broken and stained, wondering what else we could have done, what else we could do for that half second of acknowledgement that will never serve as a solid infrastructure to our stained glass temple.


Dust yourself off.


Pick up the shattered pieces and allow the sunlight to blast the dark shadows of failure and hurt out of them, releasing them back into the swirling blue skies. Let them go home. Accept all that didn't serve you, and rewire those light energies into your soul as yet another splatter of your own blood, a long stream on a wave of a single inhalation. Take it all in. It's all you. You were meant to be the bearer of each and every stain that has been painted onto your glass. For if one panel was missing, there would be no temple, no empire, no you.


Embrace all that which is light, and spread that light into the darkness. Fear not love.
