ONCE UPON A TIME
As a child, you believed everything was possible. You dreamed of becoming a fireman, an astronaut, a doctor, a singer and you were never embarrassed to say so when asked. Why was that? Because you were stupid? Of course, not! Naive, maybe? Nope. Childishly optimistic? I do not think so. Realistic? That’s right! You were simply yourself, a child whose eyes sparkled to the amazing possibilities that laid before him, a child who could still foresee his dazzling future and never, not for a minute, questioned it.
A CHILD MISSING
But since then, you went missing, you were claimed lost and never found. Someone kidnapped you and trapped you in the virtual world of humans and you were genetically modified, mutated. Those people took all your gifts and gave you as presents their fears, removed all your wisdom and gave you their beliefs, darkened your light and replaced it with a tunnel vision of scepticism and rejection of your true essence because it could not be measured. They had the best intentions and they promised they knew best. And they did. They tried hard to protect you from the reality of paradox and provide you with a safe place. The world became safer under their instructions, under their guidance and their fears became your beliefs. Smoothly, slowly, you fell in the casserole with the boiling water and, without realising it, you forgot that you were human.
IS OUR CORE MEASURABLE?
You became predictable, measurable, tangible, and that is really lamentable, regrettable, distressing because who falls in love with someone predictable? No one, not even yourself. That is why you lost the sparkle in your eyes because you were no more in love with yourself as you were forced to follow the road most travelled. No improvisations, deviations, shortcuts. You lost your boldness. Your bravery, your personal responsibility, your assertiveness, your self knowing. You dimmed your light. You became average and expected average. Average love, average grades, average work, average self, average family, average kids, average life. You willingly ceded your energetic potential to those who had lost theirs and you took the responsibility to take care of them instead of being taken care of.
FEAR: THE GREATEST THIEF OF ALL.
They started telling you how perfect you are because you could fit in perfectly. You forgot your own size and custom-tailored suits that matched your personality and went for the factory-made clothing, the ready to wear productions of standardized sizes. You made everyone happy and you became gradually and quietly happier only by seeing in their eyes their comfort and security. You were a good boy, a good girl mainly because you were more connected with their concerns and less with your innate connection to life.
Their intention was truly in the best interest of your development but lacked wisdom.
Because they live in fear and fear steals wisdom. The wisdom of believing in your miraculous nature, in the certainty that you will become what you already are, knowing that you can never become nothing else that is not you. They lacked the fearless realistic faith to leave you alone to excel in what you already were. A miracle! A pine will always thrive as a pine, a rose will always smell like one, a lion will always become the king of the savanna. They lost their trust in you and your innate tendency to thrive. In goodwill, they turned you into a frog. You died. They shot you down. Bang! Bang!
HOW TO GET OUT OF THE BOX.
But you settled too and started following the herd, the crowd. And it was for your best, I can assure you because it is best to remain in the known than jump into the unknown without the skills that can make you maintain, flourish and self-actualize. They slowly took away from you your innate capacity to decide your own best directions in life. It is time for all of us to take back what fear stole from us, to become again our pure possibility. We need to learn again step by step how to model mastery, how to be us, and show our core of power. We need to believe AGAIN in pure mathematics, in the mechanical principles of the universe.
It is not a miracle, to become miraculous. That is who we are. It is not extravagant to become meaningful and significant. It is the reality and not a fairy tale that we are at the centre of the universe and we are welcome by it to make the evolutionary leap towards our pure nature, our return to greatness. At the core of who we are, there is still a magical connection to our brilliance, creativity, bravery, love and light. That connection is part of who we are and can not be cut. It is a transparent thread that connects us to our soul. This is our magical connection. All we need is a facilitator to show us how to remember. A reminder to lead the way to our epic comeback.
Today is the day. Shall we?
The first step towards our greatness.
Please keep yourself inspired until next week.
