MEDITATION ON ACCEPTANCE

When you feel you are at your wits' end, and all seems hopeless, please take a moment to remind yourself that you are merely an actor in a play, and though you may have momentarily forgotten your lines, there is a much grander family out in the audience, watching, who understands the pressure you are under to "perform" your part, and that when you get off the stage, you will be returning to this grand family that is full of Love, Compassion, and Understanding.

Also remember that you cannot really get your part wrong, for there will always be the next grand play, and eventually you will become the polished actor who not only gets your own lines right, but knows how to improvise when others forget their lines, so as to carry the cast and crew through to the end if need be.

You are  cherished for your uniqueness and for the many contributions you naturally share with your fellow travelers. May you express your uniqueness in the most creative way you can imagine.

And just focus on one way, small or large, that you have maee a difference in the world to someone in need.
