A read a beautiful statement a while ago which goes
like this ‘ We do not fear the dark , but the magnificence of our own light. ‘For
the past few days this statement has been ringing a bell within me. I have
started noticing the levels at which I play small in life. This ‘smallness’
manifests in more than one ways in all areas of my life. From the choice of
relationships that I go for to the choice of food that I make in day today
living. There are new avenues which are calling me but the drag and pull of the
familiar small me drags me away from venturing into the new avenues. As I sit
in my meditation and through this writing I want to tell the small me that your
purpose to keep me safe is done. I appreciate your concern for my safety and security
and your strategy to play small. But let’s consider the light of new
possibilities creating a much more harmonious world where there is abundance of
freedom and peace and need for protection is fulfilled by peaceful, loving
minds and hearts. One mind at a time, one heart at a time: starting with me. I
choose the larger me, a me which creates loving healthy, respectful
relationships. A larger me who speaks her beliefs. A larger me who is willing
to hold her beliefs lightly and has the courage to accommodate new beliefs
which truly resonate with her heart. A larger me which defines ‘me’ as not just
‘self’ but expands to unify the world, one relationship at a time starting with
the ‘small me’ J
