In a world where we are constantly bombarded with expectations, it can be difficult to remember one key point: We are not just physical beings inhabiting this physical space. We are in fact spiritual beings temporarily inhabiting this physical space for a purpose. This often gets lost in the minutiae of everyday existence.
I learned a very important lesson today that boils down to recognizing your divinity. This comes in a variety of forms, but one of the most basic involves the divine right to love and respect. All beings in this existence have this right, though the concepts and how to apply them are muddled way too often. Additionally, it can be difficult to remember this goes both ways. Love and respect are not something to be earned--they are not arbitrary objects to be quantified or subjectively given. They are universal concepts to be applied to every living thing in every situation, regardless of differences of opinion.
This is the first step in recognizing your divinity. And it is a powerful lesson to remember when you feel powerless or defenseless.
Blessings,
Denora
