We are not here on earth to see through each other,
we are here to see each other through.

What if we had some kind of unlimited energy? Some kind of fuel, when you use it, more comes right back to you; a natural abundance... and free, no money attached, no politics, free to children, free to their children, free to take care, take care of the rooted, the crawlers, the flyers, all life, our life.
What if, this was? We're hurling through space together, same planet, same direction, same place, free to be-- sorry, it's another call, another voice saying "nothing is free". Or is this just what we have believed?
Here's a thought: what if we all had this everlasting free, natural wealth? You are not what you have; you are not your car, you are not your house, you are not your stuff. You are who you are.
The individual story, every little experience builds your character. You can turn a loss into a gain. It's your story, you write each page, every day, every moment. You are the path you've taken, you are the path you are on. You are every unique experience that you've known and will come to know. You are far greater than the sum of your spectacular parts. Thank you for this amazing gift. It's right there inside. You are who you are, your kindness, your truth, your ability to make a single moment mean as much for others as it does for you. You overcame a lot of fear to get here.
What if you were much more than fine? What if today you hold this cool treasure map, and so it is, big treasure located at the junction of two eternities, right at the crossroads. One belongs to the past, the other to the future. And now belongs to you. That junction is the moment, exactly like this one. You discover the treasure where you stand right in the moment, with strength, peace, with power.
It is your moment, it is your present; a treasure overflowing with natural wealth, discovered along the path of life, not at the end of the trail. The map is drawn, life unfolds, the present is here in your hands. So what if you mattered more? Just think. Corporations cannot think, governments cannot think, only the individual can think. This is your strength.
So what if you knew truth? What if you knew truth well enough to know everybody holds their own. When you share your truth as you understand it, you hold respect for other individual truths. This is your strength, your voice, your wholeness of being. This is natural wealth, a field to travel comfortably at 66,000 miles per hour/106,000+ kilometers per hour, the top down, sun on your face, travelling together; a joy ride on a big ball around the sun, plenty of space, just limited on time.
So take care, this call is for you...
