Dear bloggers,

We are all sparks in this great universe we live in.  None of us are dim or dull; we just don’t realize how much of a strobe light we are in the cosmos.  In many cases, an elephant probably doesn’t know its own strength.  A chihuahua certainly doesn’t know how small it is when it’s threatening a big St. Bernard!  So the relative knowledge of our own self is sometimes inflated; other times it’s deflated.   Very rarely if ever do we see ourselves exactly as we are.

So many people want to be somebody else, and in reality, they’re so great just as they are.  I think you diminish yourself when you throw out parts of yourself and try to replace it with parts of other people.  It’s like being a sleek Corvette and then seeing a big truck, and then you take the big, unwieldy steering wheel, the huge spout that the smoke comes out of, and pretty soon the Corvette isn’t anything like a Corvette anymore.  It’s like a pimple on a dancer’s ass.  It’s out of context.

I believe that each of the billions of people who inhabit this world has the power of the universe within them.  Our job is to find that power, pull it out, examine it, enhance it, define it, put it into the air, see what happens, and away we go!
