Welcome to a hit of hope.
It's easy to decide to bury your real self.
It's what the world wants you to do.
The world wants you to be easy,
Simple.
The world wants you to be perfect,
Incredible,
Interesting all the time.
The world wants you to be on your best behavior.
It wants you to hide what is weird or strange or what is oh so very human about yourself.
The world wants you to be nice and quiet,
To shrink,
To be small enough to fit into a box.
But your real self,
Your luminous,
Your strange self doesn't want to go inside the dark and confining box.
Your real self wants to be free.
Your strange self longs to be revealed.
Your luminous self,
It's just waiting to be shared with all of the other incredible and beautiful and real selves out there.
Do not bury your real self.
Do you hear me?
Do not bury your luminous self.
You are so very,
Very strange.
Please keep it that way.
Namaste.
