If you are not your body, who are you?
If you are not your work, who are you?
If you are not your roles, who are you?
If you are not what others think, who are you?
Is it possible that we are more than we see?
Is it possible that you are really free to be?
Is it possible that our appearance is a mirage?
Is it possible that we project what we think on one another?
If we are a figment of our imagination, what do you want to be?
If we are a projection of our beliefs, what do you believe about yourself?
If we are points of the light in a world of apparent darkness, are you shining?
If we are here to remember ourselves, what are you remembering?
In this world of relativity, we can see what appears to be separate.
When we believe it is separate and different from us, we can judge it.
When we know it is the same…connected with ourselves, we have compassion.
When we rely on others to help us define ourselves, their self judgment becomes ours.
What will it take for us to return to Love, Peace, Understanding and Good Will?
How can we define ourselves as one part of a greater whole to be the One to Love?
How can we re-member the Love we are when we are all together?
How can we forgive ourselves for judging, criticizing, complaining and hurting one another?
What we give is given to ourselves.
When we hurt another, we feel hurt.
When we appreciate another, we feel appreciated,
When we connect with another, we feel united.
We are the One, appearing to be many.
We are the Way, appearing to be divergent paths.
We are the Love, appearing to have diverse forms
We are all One, here to awaken and remember our Self.
We are united in Peace.
We are united in Love.
We are united in Joy.
When we realize the peace and love and joy within, we are at home.
And so it is, we see what thoughts that divide, separate, block and distract us to be forgiven.
When we have forgiven the judging thoughts that block the awareness of Love, we are at home.
When we release the false beliefs and limited thinking, we realize what realize is and know Peace.
When we realize our brother is our Self, we know only love for all that is.
Shining with the One Light,

“Our Greatest Fear”
Our greatest fear
is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light,
not our darkness,
that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves,
“Who am I to be brilliant,
gorgeous, talented and fabulous?”
Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small doesn’t serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking
so that others won’t feel insecure around you.
We were born to make manifest the glory of God within us.
It is not just in some of us,
it is in everyone,
and as we let our own light shine
we unconsciously give other people permission
to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear
our presence automatically liberates others.
Marianne Williamson, 1992
