The Alibi of Greatness

The Crisis of Greatness1

The Diversion of Greatness

The Inertia of Greatness

Awaiting Dawn

     Most of us work for days waiting for dawn to wave its wand over our lives.

When it does, however, its seldom what we envision the way we envision it.

On the contrary, dawn often sends darkness to help us develop our greatness.

Yet, in expecting light we routinely sleight ourselves, others also.

In fact so much of what we envision opposes the mission for which we were born. Hence our tendency to feel cheated and shorn of opportunities that come freely to others.

Even so, dawn has a reason and we have a mission. In discovering this, we turn darkness into greatness instead!

THE BASIC

Nothing is so wasted as is what we consider basic, mainly perhaps because it is.

Otherwise time would be cherished and others encouraged whether or not we feel like it.

Yet because both are basic (and abundant) we are indifferent until they are gone.

Only then are we prone to value each rightly.

Even then, however, the basic is wasted more than we admit it, to others and to ourselves.

Wishing and Rushing

 

 

We spend most of our lives wishing and rushing only to discover that neither matters in the end.

We should consider ourselves fortunate if we discover this fact before we get to the end.

If not, we indulge regret or deny denial because we can’t reverse the sun’s dial.

It’s okay to be committed and whetted in our appetites.

Yet we shouldn’t let these deprive us of our lives, which is what happens when wishing and rushing rule.

So, why not relax while you work and let time work for you instead!
