Worthy to Welcome
We come worthy and can only become unworthy. From everywhere my eyes have seen to everyplace my feet have ever touched inhabitants of our planet are out of whack with reputable reverence. Along the living highway, we’ve been blithely cruising, making good time, or taken a bruising in crashes to obtaining admonishment with fines. Overall, we’re often so checked out from ourselves, we’re merely going versus driving with intent. Everyone deserves to feel they belong, no matter some tainted individual’s sense of ego, entitlement, or wrongdoing. Often, when we’ve been wounded, another layer of us will break atop the scar that’s just trying to mend. It’s annoying to acutely painful to find your tears over one thing turning into a wellspring of Niagara Falls fury over an entirely deeper torture. Let us lead our own worthy to welcome wagons so masterfully that we always leave room for others to join. Healing is an inside-outside job.
… dismiss whatever insults your own soul… ~Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass
I can’t argue for things on behalf of a lot of you, but I do know thousands of particles about several and, of course, myself. Affronts to our dignity are no basis to our balance. Whenever something or someone reaches to knock our excellence sideways or aims unsavory in our way it’s actually an appeal to reconnect with our acclaim. Romance to finance, to family or friends is a lure to catch yourself declaring an enormity of admiration plus hospitable advantage. Each effort of a moment unveils a chance for us to drink from the well of wisdom. Will we forget we’re practically parched nonstop in numerous forms? Will we fake a sip, barely tip one to our lips, do a shot, allow a nice regular slurp, or gulp that mother-f*cker as if all inches of our spirit are fully aware it’s such divine drops of enlightenment we depend upon and shouldn’t live without? Lawd, you’s a perfect peach! (Loud and proud us Southerners would say),
Auspiciousness seats better without injury. I waltz into wonderings with wide-open eyes. When you stand rock-steady for cheerleading the most commendable behavior of yourself and with others you’ll notice a variety of implications. Happy troops may gather in droves at your gates. Correspondingly, hoodlums of harm can be constant douches. Here’s the pattern to know: your heights regularly perform as someone’s low. Deciphered: Your talent for maintaining or regaining your loving confidence snags others’ cynicism. Annihilate that shit! We don’t need to give time over to the meanies who’d rather keep us frowning. Let’s administer approachableness in the same swarms as coffee shops. Seize any seething to be a miracle-worker. Distort any defame into infamous displays of empathy. Thereof, self-worth sticks like superglue. Congratulate positivity. Befriend kindness. Be an exemplary theme of unimpeachable priority.
“Come down now”, they’ll say

“Come down now”, but we’ll stay ~Iron and Wine cover Postal Service, Such Great Heights
Frequency changes can cause more than simply sonic booms. You’ll likely pick up quick results of the rubbing-you-wrongly kind. Our expansions toward goodness fundamentally topple people’s conceptions. These shifts ripple receptive, sensual, and philosophically rude reverberations in others’ perceptions. Those reactions are not facts about your choices. They are best to be ignored. However, they’re the universe letting you understand noisily and exactly who is not ready to unwind their mistaken ownership of a lack of self-value for all. Good riddance. Although, you’re safe to wish them well, while creating a wide berth. They may come around again one day and you can welcome them back if they do. Our task is not to do anyone else’s self-work. Yet, if you’re given space to exist, I figure you might comfort the air you take up to be a role model. Seems a fair price for landing here in the first place.
A gifting mentality doesn’t grow on trees. Instead, I’ll submit that gracing compassion is the founder of our DNA. I’m incriminating our human lineage to intimate that we’re all produced with a serving of virtue from the same cellular ancestral procreator. Sure, the measures we receive one to another could be slightly diverse. Think a similar manner of ladling fresh chili into bowls realizing it’s near impossible to make certain each person has a matching number of beans, portion of meat, and spice. Forsaking amounts or vexing competitiveness, you are a godsend. We must be prepared with a titanic yield to dispose of any damage that’s permeated our membranes. Disobey the tricksters. I’m telling you that you arrived soully noble. Irrespective of what has happened since or what may come in the next ten seconds to ten lifetimes, you remain a relevant treasure. Exploit your superpowers. Harness your decency. Be the salutation you want to see in the world.
May your being be memorably esteemed for yourself and an abundance of others.
