The thoughts in my head, the ones that won't go away, that have been there for so long. The thoughts that hold me back and keep me from growing. Worries, fears, false expectations. They are of man, the light of man. Feelings of insecurity, low self worth, self pity and self. So many man made lights they are as the lights of a city. Needing energy to shine, needing my energy, taking my energy. They are my Ego, bright within themselves they come together to blot out the stars.

The stars, beautiful, natural, self sustaining life. The stars are of God. Always there, always giving their light, beauty, peace and joy. I can't see the stars when I'm surrounded by, in, the lights of man. But I know they are there. They always have been and they always will be. To see the stars clearly I remove myself from the city lights. The stuff of man, all that I have learned, all that I know, all that I thought I was. I remove.

For the first time I can now see the stars clearly burning brightly in the sky. As I look closer I see they aren't stars at all. They are people. God is in all of us. The light of God shines in all of us and now I can see the light. In the light I see you.

You are here with me now holding my hand. You too have let go of all that has held you back. Releasing the bondage of self that has been blocking out the light of the stars you join me. Removing the veil of ego we are free of self at last. Nothing remains but our naked souls together, alone, with the stars. Burning brighter than I have ever seen them before I am now seeing what has always been there.

I thank you for letting me see God in you.

    Wow that was really beautiful.
    Thanks, from having a rough day that made me feel somewhat better I've felt for so long the worries and the fear and I'm looking forward to the day when I don't.
