Inside You Lies Greatness

In each of you, there is a seed;
A seed of vast potential,
A place beyond the ego mind,
A place so rich and fertile
That you can smell its rich fragrance
Like after a cool summer rain.
You can feel this pulse of life
As it pulses through you.
This infinite part of you knows,
Like a beacon in the night.
It guides you on your journey...
Back home...
Back... to the Real You.
This greatness requires just one thing,
Your awareness.
Awareness through your breath,
Noticing in each moment,
How precious life really is
And how precious You really are;
For you are it's Source
And It is your beginning.
You now stand at the crossroads;
A crossroads of your old self
And the Real you.
Embrace this moment.
Embrace yourself as the creator in your life.
This is your essence.
Breathe it in...
Let it flow.
Let it just Be.
And so it is.
