You are the entire ocean in a drop.
~ Rumi
I believe we think of ourselves as a drop. And so, in turn, we have these false walls that hold us back. Imagine how much more outrageous we can be if we realize we are the whole ocean in a drop. It's fascinating to think about.
It goes back to the Gary Zukav question posed so many years ago in one of his books, "What would you do if you knew you could not fail?" I used to have that all over the house on post-it notes.
t was brought home again last Thursday when I attended a Vision Board class. The teacher can always learn.
We were asked to think about the addition four questions (Zukav's was first):
- Who would I BE if I knew I could not fail?
- What would I do and who would I be if I really, truly, didn't care what other people thought?
- Where do I not express myself in my current life?
- What am I afraid of?
Break down the walls and start making your own waves. Create your own waterfall. You are the entire ocean in a drop.
I know. It's heady stuff.
