Heart and Grit

Just Be

Celebrating Ourselves

18 Mar

Not, be this

or be that.

Front-page news, or

an influencer

and well known to the world.

Be known in your own world,

   – a fan club of one.

Be seen by yourself.

You are weary of the game,

carrying sorrow of past centuries

and present brutalities.

You think you should change things.

And you do.

But allow that action to arise from your soul

   – and none other.

Never doubt that you’re in the right place …

   – when you’ve reached the end of yourself.

For it is then that a new beginning has freedom

to show itself.

Remember that comparison to others

scavenges your spirit;

that you have every right

to lift up your eyes to the sky …

  – as downturn does not become

the brightness that you are.  

You are here among us not as a quirk of fate,

but by grand design.

Just be.

Who you are,

as you are.

“We are here to learn to endure the beams of love”.

William Blake
