What do you want to do?

What do you want to do?

How can anyone lead spiritually?
How can anyone pretend there are answers when ultimately it's all a dream. 
It's all a figment of our own imagination. 
And yet it's not. 
There is something real out there. 
What you call it and how you use it is up to you. 
There are only temporary truths that help you get through the day. 
Maybe being a spiritual leader is simply to pass on the things that have been helping you at the time. 
But then what if that changes and you don't see the change and you are getting stuck in a rut and don't change. You keep beating that horse that already died as of it were the only way to carry you and all your followers out of their temporary hell. But you go nowhere. So people leave. And you either change or you stay in your hell where you and your followers are trapped. 

Who made you the leader anyway? We are all leaders. 

We can all be great followers or great leaders. What do you want to do?

Water and Sky

The doctors say these three numbers look bad.

The doctors say these three numbers look bad.

If these numbers look worse tomorrow, we will have to go to the institution.

Should we put our faith in the numbers?

Should we put our faith in the institution?

What do the institutions numbers look like?

How many go in and how many come out?

What numbers show how many come out happier?

What numbers show how many come out healthier?

How many simply come out only with improvements in those original three numbers that you were worried about?

How many are less happy? Less healthy? Less... Just to see a few numbers improve?

I am

I am
I am truth
I am wisdom
You are
You are truth
You are wisdom
We are
We are true
We are wisdom

How can I really see you without getting in my own way?

How can you see me without you getting in your own way?

Who's truth is more valid?

Everyone is your teacher and everyone is your student.

Everyone deserves the highest respect at the same time because of those relationships.
