Becoming Forever

There are stories and then there is the story. It’s yours. It takes time to discover it. Too often others tell you what it is. But they can’t know. Only you know.

When you finally find your voice your story will rise up from the depths of your being. Its source is your life. You are constantly creating it. You seldom tell it because you’re afraid. You let others tell you your story. But their version isn’t you, and it is small.

We don’t voice our tale sometimes because it’s so big. When we begin to let it rise, it feels like it could tear us apart. It can’t possibly be who we are. And it’s not. We’re even larger than the story that lives in us. When we begin to voice it, we become pierced by the light of becoming whose source is Life Itself.

But you must pick up that pen, raise your voice, glide that brush, move your body. You must begin to express who you are now. Let your story out and enter the process of ever becoming that started in darkness. Strike the match. Watch the flames rise and rise and rise. Gather yourself and enter your story. Now you are becoming…forever.
