Ever since I saw the light and embarked upon a free life, away from all and that was familiar, I have faced challenges that ultimately lift my spirit, though at first they seemed daunting, on a wonderful journey of self discovery. Each step triggers new awareness of myself and what drives me; each step has within it the power to transform me still further, away from the old “me” that fell asleep one day and awoke in a far off land with no roots to hold me to the ground, yet somehow happy and free.
This journey began long ago in darker days when truth seemed soiled by doubts and fears and freedom was but a distant dream. I roamed though life unaware of my true self and desires, clouded by thoughts that emanated from youth when life itself seemed colourless and futile, as each day dawned and brought little to lift my spirit and give me hope. Instead, I chased an illusion, that I would one day prove my worth to the world, (fearful beneath the surface that I had no true value or originality) that all I did was copied from others more worthy, somehow drawn together by me in ways that, at best, sometimes seemed special, almost original.
In fact, that is how much of human knowledge and creativity is gradually expanded, built on foundations put in place by numerous generations of our forefathers. There’s no shame in that, yet as I expand beyond my known self, even more is possible as I draw down abundant knowledge and ideas, as much as I can handle, by letting go of my self doubts and my need to dominate and control everything in life. Instead, I borrow concepts from all that is, the universal consciousness, to my own credit and for the ultimate benefit of all mankind. There is no limit on what I am, say, do or believe: anything is possible.
