TRUE POWER

To reach into another’s life with the intent to extract, control, or cause pain is not an act of power…..it is an expression of quiet despair. It is the grief of a soul that has fallen into forgetfulness, losing its remembrance of the Infinite within, and so reaches outward, grasping for fragments of light in another’s field. Believing itself starved of energy….of love…..it attempts to feed upon what it perceives to be missing. But this is the great illusion: that love can be taken, that radiance can be stolen. Nothing seized through fear can ever nourish the spirit. No illusion of control can replace the living truth of one’s own divine spark. For the wellspring of true power lies not in conquest, but in communion. Not in the taking, but in the sacred recognition of what already flows within. And what has been forgotten can be remembered….if the heart is willing to turn inward, and listen once more to the song of its origin.
