Day 140r: Re-turning the Task at Hand … (September 16, 2019)
Oh the ego’s dance between ease and difficulty; the pendulum swinging ever back & forth between joy and sorrow. And yet the Soul knows only the task at hand, and returning thereto knows only Peace …
“We have all collectively decided what makes a true Hero – one who is brave, but not without fear; one who ever sets aside his own comfort or safety (sometimes even his own life) in favor of doing another a better turn. A hero has the daring to say what he believes is right and good, even if public opinion sneers and derides the same. And he is ever willing to step directly between the blade of any oppressor and the necks of those oppressed. For what worth is his own liberty while even a single of his sentient cousins is being imprisoned or abused? The Hero always works – or walks – to make the world a more peaceful, nonviolent, and caring place. He ever acts out of love for all others, because indeed caring for other beings is the most potent difference between any Hero and every villain.” ~ inspired by Rajani LaRocca
