The ears wish to hear a great story while our lips wait to spill theirs. There is want in that, and bliss. Our eyes desire to see the daily mural of the sky, and our heart dreams to be flying in it. There is desire in these things, and a want that can lead us closer toward our story. Desire can be without ego. Need, however, is spawned by the illusory feeling of lack, and is the grandest example of how the ego works. Lack is of the mind. Abundance is the makeup of the heart.
As we awaken from our slumber and begin to remember instead of learn, anything is possible. We used to hear things like that when we were kids too... Anything is possible. What age was it that we dropped that idea for a seemingly better one?
So much sadness in the world today, all because too few are finding their own story, and worrying about the story next door, or the fictional one on TV.. Fear not though, because finding your story is as easy as simply starting to look. You are your own reality show, and I guarantee it will be far more entertaining, and far more real. I see more and more people doing just that every day, like you and me. Keep pushing passed the fear, tearing through the facade of lack, which masks a glorious world standing not far behind it. You won’t even have to strain your eyes to see it.
Remember why you’re here, experiencing what you’re experiencing. Trace it back, be the detective and find the clues of what got you this far and what you may have overlooked in the past. Go forward as if each second is a brand new creation of the universe. It’s a clean slate every day, and there is not one person on this planet to which that does not apply.
Forget what you think you have been or will be, and forget the same of others. Treat every one and every day as if they are brand new, and I guarantee you, yourself in turn will be renewed.
And forget that illusion of lack once and for all. All you need is within your imagination, sparked by that invincible heart. It then becomes obvious there was never anything to overcome in the first place.
