Stop acting so small.
You are the universe in ecstatic motion.
I know,
We're humans,
We have hearts and minds and we get stopped by stuff.
But really,
Sometimes it's time to focus on what you can do,
On the life force that flows through you.
Do not get limited by your own beliefs.
Do not get stuck or stop.
Dare to move towards what matters most.
I love this roomy quote.
The full quote says,
Do not feel lonely.
The entire universe is inside of you.
Stop acting so small!
Stop acting so small!
You are the universe in ecstatic motion.
Set your life on fire.
And seek those who fan your flames.
Just sometimes it's rightful to not focus on what stops us,
What we can't do,
How hard it is,
How difficult it is,
That we should be more mindful,
That our mind's whizzing and twizzing about this,
That it's difficult,
That we can't,
That we mustn't,
That someone says we shouldn't.
You can choose to spend your whole life listening to those voices if you like.
Sometimes they're rightful.
But see where that choice will take you.
May or may not want to do that.
You may wish to commit to fanning your own flames to burning bright.
To daring greatly.
To stepping towards doing what it is that you want.
To taking on what matters.
Stop acting so small.
You are the universe in ecstatic motion.
We all get stuck by our self-confidence.
Stomped by our own identity.
And yet we have a choice of what we listen to.
There is a life force that lives through us.
It's so obvious when it's gone and someone's passed away.
There is a vitality within us as humans that lights us up,
That moves through us.
Set things in motion from that vitality.
Dare to do things from the perspective that it might work out.
Come into contact with what is good,
With what lights you up,
With what makes you burn bright.
Choose to move towards more life force in your life.
Don't get stuck slumped in front of the television,
Pushing it all down with junk food.
See yourself as the universe in ecstatic motion.
Be open to improbable and impossible goodness flowing through you.
Dare to do the thing.
To have more than he thought was possible.
To come into contact with the good that you are.
With a life force that is moving within you.
You are the universe in ecstatic motion.
So I challenge you as we finish up this short session to shift your view of yourself from,
Oh,
I'm a separate thing,
And I never could,
And I mustn't.
To being the universe in ecstatic motion.
Poetry is such a wonderful way with words.
The universe is moving.
You are part of it.
You are a precious part of this place,
And you can do more than you think is possible.
Drink deep of this dose of daring.
Feel your spine lengthen,
Your shoulders open,
Your eyes get a little shinier.
Your heart have a little more life force move through it.
Let the universe come in close and move through you.
Dare to live a little more today,
To love a little more today,
To let a little more life force into you.
And to let a little more life force out of you.
You are the universe in ecstatic motion,
My dear.
Yes,
A separate self,
But also so much part of this place.
So please bear that in mind as you go from here and out into your day.
Please dream and dare and do.
As if the whole universe might be backing you up.
As if we might need you here.
As if goodness might be waiting for you,
As if grace is assuredly going to happen to you.
Go forth and live like you're the universe in ecstatic motion.
Because you are.
Thank you.
