I know I am part of the cosmos,

a little spec of star dust put here on this earth to sparkle.

I am meant to connect with other particles of the universe to create something greater.

Some times I feel I’m not bright or powerful enough to pull it off.

Sometimes it seems my internal guidance needs calibration…signal weak, lost.

Other times I foolishly try to shine all on my own.

But the energy it takes to stand apart, to try to be the universe on my own

quickly brings me to exhaustion.

It is only when I recognize the I, the me, the we and the shared power in our communal healing and being

That I become the vibrant, harmonious, full sense of who I really am.
