I have learned, …I am learning, to hold a positive perspective through adversity. If I cannot give grace to myself for my folly, I cannot receive it, nor can I share it with others.

What do you think the average human heart weighs against the feather of truth?

Should we fear the result of its outweighing or release the weight simply to know weightlessness.

Becoming nobody is the work. Dissolving ideas of ourselves, attachment to stories, and habitual pitfalls, is the humbling, ass-kicking work.
We are varying degrees of commitment and devotion, lost and found, being and doing.

I believe in the work and I believe in the process. Admittedly at times I have my head so far up my own ass and at a point then start to feel like I’m being chased. The path is peppered with warriors much more humble than I, and they teach me how to walk mindfully one step at a time. Life is a mirror full of opportunity to make alterations at any given moment. Release to release, forgive to be forgiven, be grateful for lessons made clear, do your best to seek your best in all things.

You can’t please them all, and you might even be hated. Every energy has a token to grant. I am grateful to receive your grace because it offers me a depth of self awareness found only through the discomforts of silence. Always I have been a fighter, but much though true is unseen and often fought aggressively within. So I soften around those brave enough to be soft around me, and release the fight to the ones who insist on suffering.

I have learned the inherent error of a conclusive mindset. Forgiveness is liberating, while holding fast to judgement sickens the soul.

All is one, all is illusion, the only way is through. Musca æternum translates to “fly eternal”.
It is as much about process as it is about humility. May you always have the courage to persevere.
