 I place my faith in seven billion Kings and Queens, seven billion whole and sovereign. Seven billion who bow to strangers and say, “there am I.” Seven billion who look at the moon and say, “there I shine.” Seven billion who look at the mountain and say, “there I sit,” who look at the forest and say, “there I grow.” Wake up kings and Queens. Rescue yourselves from the hungry ghosts of history. Discover the deeper throne. Dwell deeper home where the notion of ruling another is laughable, where mastery knows itself through humility and absolute trust in inner authority. Dwell deeper home, where the need to be seen is dissolved by willingness to see the essential in yourself and in another, where wealth is defined by what you share. When you have found that me never was who you are and the center you thought you were becomes infinite space, what then? It all becomes possible, and you’ll see what you’re made of everywhere, in every seeming thing. Be kind to us all, and allow yourself this greatness. ~~Luke Anderson |
