When you look upon
the stars in the sky,
what do you see? Are
there constellations?
Hanging balls of fire?
Dreamy shooting stars?
What?
Because, if you will
ask me, I can see
every man, every
woman, every child;
Even the infant
who is not yet born.
and
everyone has a
dream, a grand purpose,
a destiny to
fulfill while there is
every breath, every
heartbeat, every soul.
Yes,
this is what I see
and I know that all
of us are there right
now, though some of us
have not yet deeply
realized this truth
But
once we see it through
this kind of lens, we
unite with ourselves,
our true self that was
hidden because of
the pressures of time.
and
within just ano-
ther matter of time
of meditating
this proverb, we shall
begin to believe
that we are all like
stars
and every star has
a name, a glow, a
light that can brighten
even the darkest
night. And I know we
shall be remembered
if
we know who we are,
why we are here to-
day, and what we must
do as we look in
the mirror and ho-
nestly ask ourselves,
'What do I see? '
