Well, Who Are You?

Before you can follow your star, you want to know where your star is.

Before you can reveal to yourself who you are, you have to know who you are.

In life, you strive to find the star you swing on. No matter how many moons you have lived on Earth, you are trying to find out this answer.

You know all you are not. You are good at that. Too often you don’t know who you are or what you really like nor do you begin to know what you are capable of.

It is as though you were in summer theater. You put on a costume and wear a hat. You play a part, and yet the part you play is hollow.

You put that costume and hat aside, and next summer you put on another costume and hat and act in another play, and all the while you wonder where your star is to wish upon.

All year and your whole life, you have wondered when you will find the ship that is yours to sail, and, you wonder, when you see it, how will you know it’s yours?

It has been said that you find yourself by losing yourself. Lose your search for identity and belonging, and you may well discover your star as you are not looking or looking so hard.

Right where you are right now is where you are. Wherever you are, there are clues that point to where you eminently are. One day soon, you will know you belong anywhere you happen to be. You belong wherever you are. You don’t have to be like anyone else before or after you. This strange land you find yourself in is where you belong. It is not that others belong here more than you do. The real thing is that you are the one who cast yourself aside.

There is a fortune contained within you. You are the fortune you seek. It isn’t out there. The fortune is within you. You have it all the time. You don’t recognize. You belong without the guises you try on. You don’t need any image. All images but One are false. You have tried to be someone you are not, and you have forsaken Who you are.

You would be true to yourself if only you knew Who you really are.

You are much more than you thought. You don’t have to belong to a sorority. You don’t have to be popular. All you have to do is to be. All you have to do is to give yourself some credit. If you are on the outside, you left yourself on the outside. You left yourself hanging out looking for something. All the while you have been searching for a Self image you can accept, you have been denying the Truth of you.

Go deeper. Even on the surface levels, you are much more than you credit yourself with. It is like you don’t know how to read and write when it comes to the Truth of yourself. It’s like you don’t know who you are in the world, and you don’t know who you are deep within either.

You may have been a pretty face, yet inside you are much more than that. You are not a cipher, and still you don’t catch on to who you are and are meant to be.

Now your mind knows that you are really and truly My reflection, yet you hardly grasp Who you are and what you are possible of. Beloveds, you haven’t scratched the surface.

Holy Soul, you are far more than you ever thought you could be.
