A Community For Empowered Healers
An old one from around 1995
The Harmony of the Universe is a conflict
Life and Hatred
Morality and Injustice
Wastefulness and Truth
Evil and Good
Balance MUST be maintained
Once removed from this conflict
You gain objectivity and knowledge
These, perhaps, are the qualities of God

I still believe this. I thought about it while I was traveling last week. The higher I flew the more the world made sense when you looked down.

There is a depth to this poem that could easily be missed and that I MUST highlight! We often think of the word "must" in terms of a moral obligation that is imposed by society or some authoritative, outside force, but if we look at this poem and consider the original meaning of the word "must," which has more to do with relating to duty as an expression of One's true nature and enabling the Soul's purpose, we see that these words are not just exhorting us to live better... They are calling for us to simply BE ourselves and release the struggles of the ego. Simple and profound even a child could get this :) And that's who we always want to consider. Thanks for sharing!

I adore your interpretation! And starting the day off with "profound" is definitely an ego boost. Thank you
BTW, If YOU weren't a real artist I wouldn't have made your website a regular part of my day.
Quote of the Month:
"Recognizing, accepting, and expressing our authentic interior reality lies at the heart of honesty; only when we are honest with ourselves can we speak or act honestly with anyone else. In the sense of integrity, honesty entails acting in line with higher laws despite negative impulses to the contrary.
Live according to your highest light and more light will be given."
