Awakening To Grace
Ignite your heart with curiosity;
There’s more to life than meets the eye.
Beyond the surface of what we see
Is the living truth that can never die.
In a society that tries to fit in,
Have the courage to stand apart.
Don’t follow the noisy crowd;
Follow your silent heart.
Retreat from the hustle and bustle;
Relax, there’s no need to hurry.
Find the effortless flow of life;
Let go of all your worry.
Feel the rhythm of Mother Nature;
In your heart, she sings
A song of love and freedom,
In harmony with all she brings.
Planted in the soil’s darkness,
Keep reaching for the light.
Gracefully rise above challenges,
And grow up to new height.
Embrace the unknown;
Guided by grace in one direction.
In your solitude alone,
Feel the divine connection.
Taste the sweetness of surrender
To this moment, humbly bow,
With grace flowing through existence,
You are here; you are now.
Life is a miracle;
The present is the perfect place.
Nothing happens by chance;
Everything happens by grace.

Reflection
The Self explores the profound qualities that make up a strong, peaceful, and empowered self. It weaves together themes of serenity, solitude, strength, and sovereignty, portraying a self that is grounded, resilient, and free. Each quality reflects a deep sense of inner peace and balance, inviting a recognition of the power within to navigate life’s challenges. The imagery of a diamond formed under pressure, the sacredness of devotion, and the natural simplicity of being all contribute to a vision of the self that is untouchable by external forces and rooted in truth. Ultimately, it is a celebration of the self’s capacity to remain centered, unaffected by fear or chaos, and aligned with its highest potential.
