Quoting Great Masters

Over the past few decades, I have read voraciously. I had this hunger to understand Why? And How?  When would I understand Life and all of its mysteries?

Day by day, bit by bit, I worked at it. Reading. Listening. Attending courses and workshops in the metaphysical and esoteric realm.

Mystery schools.

Psychic development.

Shamanic workshops.

More reading.

More learning.

More listening.

And quoting. Lots of Great Masters - quoting their wise words which helped me to understand me. And to help me to discover, define and refine Who I Am.

so many others

such a lot of wisdom they have shared with the world, and me.

I used their words to illustrate points. I referred to them when I could not adequately explain things in the elegant manner they employed.

I used their words as tools.

And I am exceedingly grateful to every one of them.

Now I have noticed a change.

Something is different.

Today I realized that I no longer use their words to back up my own understanding of Life. In the past, I relied on their words to give credence to my words.

That is what has changed. I now use my own words as tools. I now trust my own words sufficiently to make a point or to pursue a discussion. I now give my words equivalent value.

I now have my own tools. I now have my own words.

I can breathe freely now, because I have arrived.
