Dare

“If your daily life seems poor, do not blame it; blame yourself that you are not poet enough to call forth its riches; for the Creator, there is no poverty.” - Rainer Maria Rilke

I believe this to be true. I believe it because I believe that I alone am responsible for my success and my failures.

I believe in God. Not in a religious way so much as in a spiritual way. So if there is a creator, a father (or parent) that overlooks us, it becomes easy to imagine that this parental entity only wants what is best for us. Any one of us who is a parent can easily understand this. So now lets apply this parental approach to ourselves. I remember hearing a public speaker say, “If you want to get back at your parents, ruin your life.” He was trying to point out that we can all choose to succeed or not. A flower does not question its worthiness to beome a beautiful flower. Nature shows us it is our destiny to thrive. The choice remains ours. What we do with our life remains ours.

Fair play to those who dare be the most of who they are. The only poverty out there is the one we create for ourselves. Of this, I know what I speak. If I can see beyond it, anyone can.

Namaste!
