The last motion leads to the next. The single
motion that is the entirety of motion continues... and
forgiveness makes way for grace.

Thought is motion. Thought is the internal motion
that births the external motion. Through practice we
respond.

Like wind against an inextinguishable candle-flame,
we take the brunt and respond with honour. Beware an
ego that justifies a lie. Beware an ego that cannot
forgive, for to not be able to forgive is the height
of laziness - the unwillingness to empathize with the
attacker - who can only attack because that is where
it's experience has brought it. So, through
forgiveness and a total giving of self we introduce
new consideration, that love is something to die for,
not kill for.

Ego is a construct of experience. May the
experience of humility exist, for only through that do
we evolve.

Through shining with confidence and knowing
patience true inspiration comes, not through the
frustration of unfulfilled preconception or the
allowance of resentment.

At any time there can only be two spirits that
approach and communicate - a spirit of humility, which
is a want of truth, or a spirit of pride, which is a
telling of a lie. When you know how to respond to both
you find there is nothing that cannot be handled.

Dealing with humility is easy because it's love.
Dealing with pride requires an owning of calmness unto
death; fearless - for even the most proud are
susceptible to inspiration.

Thank you. Good luck.
