Light a Flame That Brightens the World
God said:
You do not want to be beside yourself on Earth. Beside yourself, you are distraught. You want to be beyond your small self. Yes, get beyond whatever limits you have set for yourself. You can go way beyond yourself into the farther reaches of the Universe.
What can stop you? What can stop you from transcending your outer limits except for timidity, fear, fear of boldness, fear of being disappointed, fear of failing, fear of being ridiculed. Most people mind very much what others think of them. It doesn’t even matter who it is, a stranger on the street, anyone innocently or not so innocently who sets a lesser worth on you. Tell Me, please, what is there you cannot be afraid of when you set your mind to it? What are you afraid of?
Of course, you don’t want to pander your life to anyone, flotsam or jetsam, or anyone notable or worthy. You can love people without having to please them. Consider all the people in the world who have surpassed discouragement, stuck to their guns, and struck a milestone.
Who dares to say to you that you cannot do that which you desire to do?
What is all this that you must have your feet on the ground as the world purports that to be? What a dreary process. You can have your feet on the ground any day of the week. Why limp around when you can fly?
Maybe this is all I want to say today. Maybe this is all that there is to say. Yet I think of something more, yes, for you to take in.
