Day 081g: Only just yesterday … (July 04, 2019)
“Only yesterday I was no different than them, and yet I was somehow saved. I am explaining to you the way of life of a people who say every sort of wicked thing about me because I sacrificed their company to reawaken my own Soul. I left the darker paths of their greed & duplicity and turned my eyes instead toward the light where there is peace and truth and compassion. And so they have exiled me from their society, and yet I am fully content. For humankind only exiles those whose large spirit rebels against injustice and tyranny. And in truth he who does not prefer exile to servility is not free in any true and necessary sense of freedom. Real growth will never be known by those who fear risking it all, and true success will never be known by those who live false lives without integrity.” ~ Kahlil Gibran
