Manifesting the Muse …
(01/15/2018)
It's easy (and admittedly Good) to be a loyal fan of those we like and Love. It
has been said that every Master would have been nothing without his or her
primary Muse -- that every masterpiece ever created would have remained
forever dormant but for that small handful of people who believed in another
so staunchly; so unreservedly; so powerfully that the brilliance within them had
but no choice but to emerge to astound and bewonder.
And yet what of those who are not so liked or revered? What of those who
are not so Loved? What of those who -- for whatever reason(s) -- have been
cast by the wayside of society; reviled for their wrongdoings; ridiculed for their
otherness ... What of those outcasts? What of those untouchables? What of
those “villains” and “criminals” and “vile-doers” and “crazies”? Do they not
too have a latent Mastery within them? Can they not just as well blossom forth
to be a boon where they have otherwise been but a bane?
Of course they do, and of course they can. And yet who will be their Muse?
Who will be brave enough to openly embrace their still-innate Humanity? Who
will be humble enough to openly champion their still-latent Greatness?
I will do so ... will you do so too?
“Our chief yearning is for someone to move us to become what we know we
could be; to encourage us to become who we truly and deeply are.” ~ inspired
