the experience of being carried
does not mean
that there is nothing
to carry
only
that we are not alone
to carry it
hurtful
being rejected
without knowing why
is always hurtful
being rejected
and given the impression
the reason is to be found
in our own wrongdoings
without any indications
to find the one in question
is detrimental
until
we learn
it is not we
who are being rejected
but what we express
unreluctantly
being able to perceive
what the moment claims
is one thing
being able to respect it
another
and only then
is it possible
to accept it
unreluctantly
established
truth
is not
defined by
whether or not
it can be
approved
and recognised as such
by everybody
truth
is more than often
being rejected
while
breaking into
the established
the difference being
whether we dare to believe
haughty
waking up to
a sudden fear
that the saying
pride goes before destruction
and a haughty spirit before a fall
is to be one’s fate
can be experienced
as a blessing
in so far as it means
the conviction is
no longer latent
all the more
when the antidote
coming to the mind
sounds
the angel of light
walks with glory
approved
searching for approval
is a natural compulsion
of the human mind
perhaps impossible
to eradicate
though we are given the freedom
to decide
by whom
we wish to be
approved
imposing
having spent life
pushing
it can feel
illegitimate
no longer to do so
until it becomes a habit
to reveal
what is already there
rather than imposing
on the world
what was never meant
to be
pillar
finding oneself
standing
in a pillar
of the compassionate light
of mercy
while being under an assault
of powerful
accusations
can be
an experience
of bliss
quiet wonder
having lived
with a blurred vision
and suddenly being able
to see clear
is a quiet wonder
to be treasured
and pondered
in the heart
spending
sometimes we are exhausted
simply because
we are not given
to fulfil
our purpose
hence spending our strength
trying to be
what we are not
