• POWER •
At birth we are all set upon a path. A path that is laid out by a greater power. A power so strong that we’re unable to comprehend it’s capability. At first glance, each path looks eerily similar. But as we embark on our own path, it begins to differentiate from the others. In the distance we spot a light. We are unaware, but the light serves as our guide along the path. We don’t understand, so we continue haphazardly. Every time our foot strikes the earth, a new print is deposited along the surface. This print is what creates uniqueness amongst the paths. Often times we find ourselves losing sight of the light. We lose track of our guide. When this happens, our path is shadowed with darkness. It becomes difficult for us to follow the path. We begin to slowly drift away from what’s been laid out for us. We see glimpses of light, but only for moments at a time. We unconsciously continue along the path with false hopes of salvation. And then it happens; the light flashes in front of us. We reach toward it, but it disappears through our fingers. Falling to our knees, we bury our head in the darkness of our lap. We feel lost. We begin to give up. We lose all hope. Suddenly, a strong force of light beams onto us. Our eyes follow the pillar as it penetrates the shadowed clouds. We are overwhelmed by a greater power. The power that engineered the path. The power that served as our guide. The power that we have been searching for. We are enlightened. As the clouds close and your eyes drift back to the path, you finally comprehend the meaning of your journey; the power was always within you.
