Lions in Darkness

I remember being angry in traffic. Not slamming my horn and shouting at the top of my lungs angry but I felt a twinge of hatred for every person on the road. I wanted to hit the gas as hard as I could and just drive, but then the thought crossed my mind that this could be the exact same thing the guy behind me was thinking and if I gave myself the permission to do what felt incredibly justified at the time, then he would be able to make the same argument. We are connected to the concept of humanity as a whole and therefore both were able to see the Light and not barrel ahead all caution to the wind and though we might not have had the exact same thought process we were still made aware of the same conclusion. The idea that there are things that I want to do and feel right but do not indulge in because of a desire for harmony, leads me to wanting to be the cause of good consequences around me. If we didn't have to think of ourselves as being separate from a collective perspective, and we performed tasks of complete selflessness without even having to think about what a waste of energy helping a complete stranger could be, we would then transform our mutual destiny into a place where we live and breathe together in peace with our momentary experience.

I am an individual who thinks unique thoughts because of unique experience in a life that is unique unto myself. But there lies another type of infinite reality where our common experiences can be shared for the benefit of everyone and in this place we learn lessons and make mistakes and grow and change and effect each other in such a way that we then bring our knowledge into our own unique universe and become the thing that is a burning flame ready to Light up the world of Lions.

Unique and United
