This Week’s Quotation:
We are surrounded by the infinite—infinite space, infinite stars, and infinite potential of this human life. It stretches in all directions.
We are surrounded by the eternal—time before all beginnings, reaching beyond all endings.
The nature of your life as a human being is to be present here and now in this moment in time, in this immediate place where you are reading these words. The infinite and the eternal are present with you in this place—all those stars, solar systems, galaxies, and all that space. All those eons of time that have led to this moment—your parents’ parents’ parents, and so many generations before them. The unfoldment of all creation before the first human being. And all the unfolding kaleidoscope of infinite possible outcomes that are before you in your own life that stretch into future generations of humanity and beyond.

Infinite Potential
What if the boundaries we have set to protect ourselves were cutting us off from the infinite potential and the eternal that is present in each moment, preventing us from experiencing the possible and taking ownership of our creative power?
Empowerment needs to come from somewhere, and for it to land, we need to take hold of it, step into it ourselves. We can help each other to see or feel into self-empowerment, but it truly doesn’t manifest until we are ready. Are we ready?
If we live from a place of knowing the infinite is present within us, we no longer need to protect or prove ourselves. We live from a place of empowerment of self and others. We have the opportunity to own our power and support others to own theirs.
In a recent interchange with someone, the person was looking to be empowered by me. What I saw was an opportunity for them to step into their power. In their fear of making a mistake, probably from a previous experience, it felt more trustworthy for empowerment to come from me rather than from within themselves.
I know I can relate to that. How about you?
This is a pattern we need to heal within the consciousness of humanity and it can only be done when we do the work for ourselves. We deserve to be fully present for the infinite and eternal. That is why we are here! Let’s stop cutting ourselves off from this and let’s nurture each other into truly living!
What does it mean to become a sun?
Every human being is already a sun on the inside—a being of intense love and light. The difference is that some people have the vision and courage to become a sun on the outside. This difference is our human destiny.

What a beautiful and important question – something so important for us to think about embrace. Thank you!
Thank-you so beautifully said. What an exciting opportunity to just be present & let go of the limiting boundaries that I have placed on myself & see what can flow into my life through me & into my world.
As you indicate, Keahi, “empowerment needs to come from somewhere,” and I would let it flow from the infinite Source at the core of my own Being, careful not to distort, divert or diminish that power with assorted human wants and desires concocted by the self-active mind. Empowered in this way, I invite others to do the same.
