Nothing

Have
you ever known someone who has only one thing to do? And all
else...all of it... are but the happenings on the way to do that one
thing? I am describing you.
There
was a time when you learned to stand on two feet then walk because
you had decided to do it. Nobody taught you how that was to be
accomplished.
Had they tried you would not have been able to understand what they
were saying. When you fell down, you got back up. And picked
something up you found down there since you were down there anyway
and brought it back with you when you stood up laughing. And you
learned to walk. Follow a clear, single urge inside. I am urging you
and me to get in touch with something you will always have with you
that is yours alone, all
you.
Outside forces are trying to organize your day. Be strong in the face
of tyranny that conceals a motive that amounts to what it wants is
for the overall good and you must do as your are told and not do what
is in your heart unless you are permitted to do so on the exact terms
of such permission when granted by outside authority. Closely
watch
children
being ordered about by parents. It is obvious when the child has had
too much of it. That one, though smaller, will suddenly and
purposefully rebel. Often what they are doing in that moment of
rebellion seems ridiculous. Easy it is to label as childish
behavior.
Since it should be apparent to the child what is expected which
usually seems quite appropriate to adults,
it
should be done!
But what is actually happening inside that little person? You know
because you were once a child. Do you have to be reminded?
Your
only job is to watch over the children. My only hint to you of how
that is done is to point to the Creator who made you and suggest you
follow that example. It makes its Sun to shine on the good and the
bad. Do you know that a school could be operated in that way if we
decided it was to be done with the same determination with which we
learned to walk standing up? We could live happily.
I
bet we will not do it, though. Why not? Nobody can teach how that is
to be done and we are not in touch with that single urge we came here
with at birth. By now, it means less to us than a grain of sand.
Less even than gratitude.
