Excellent post Steve, thank you for such enlightening words. This post really resonated with feelings I've had for the past several (6) years, since I first awoke to whats possible (at 18 years old) to present (24). This relationship between power and responsibility, and smallness and distractions, I know all too well. There is something about finally understanding that relationship within oneself between power and responsibility, and how they are inextricably linked. When we can full accept this non-dual relationship, then we can go forward with full faith that there is no end to the path. How wonderful is that? A LIFE TIME OCCUPATION!! :]
Much Respect to All
John
PS- I believe the quote at the end of the article should be assigned to Nelson Mandela. |
