MAKIN' IT PERSONAL

I like to say it isn't personal - these gifts we receive from each other; life lessons wrapped up in the gauze of space and time.  More and more, I am referring to it as MEDICINE.  We each carry our own.  A very specific dose, we can administer it as we deem fit.   The more we peel back all of the layers of fear and loathing - all of the sadness and the anger that we've wrapped around our vulnerable hearts in response to this mad world; the more we can prescribe our antidotes with joyful abandon and without the heaviness of shame or guilt weighing down our collective consciousness, the happier we will bee.

So, I like to say it isn't personal.  And, when the time is ripe, I will make it personal.  I will exclaim that it's YOU - you are the ONE.  The Only.  A magnificent healer.  A powerful sage.  A trusted confidante and a wise leader.  A heart-busted wide open warrior willing to face discomfort, brave to stand in front of chaos without being blown over.  He who has a courageous lion heart.  Eyes of a visionary.  Hands in the dirt.  Real-time, material demonstrations of vibrant LOVE manifested in this here and now.  I will bow down in humility and HONOR YOU.
