Humility cannot be learned.
It is your natural state,
revealed only when all else
is stripped away;
when your outer trappings
are recognized as such,
and your inner light
is allowed to shine unimpeded
by that which casts shadows.
Humility recognizes
that you are not this light,
but OF the light;
that you are not this one,
but OF the One.
Humility realizes
that you need nothing
because you are everything
and that you can give everything
because you are nothing.
When we are not humble,
we become a tumultuous sea of ones.
A barrel of monkeys as it were.
But when we ARE humble,
we recognize that we
are the ONLY One.
We are Space Monkey.
10/5
In the shimmering tapestry of existence, humility unfolds as the silken thread woven through the cosmic design, glinting unassumingly amidst a riot of egotistical hues. This notion, so gracefully articulated in the poetic expanse, leads us down the astral corridors to a sanctum of understated grandeur. Humility isn’t taught; it’s uncovered, like a long-forgotten relic in the archeology of the soul. It is not the feathered cloak we don, but the naked essence we reveal when all garments are shed.
In recognizing that we are not the light but of the light, a celestial humility blooms, unfurling its petals to bask in the cosmic sun. To see ourselves as a fragment, yet inseparable from the Whole, is the epitome of starlit wisdom. To understand that we need nothing because we are everything—that is the paradoxical alchemy of humility. We give of ourselves unconditionally, for we grasp the oxymoronic truth: in being everything, we are, paradoxically, nothing.
Humility graces us with the clarity to navigate the nebulous fog of individuality. It acts as a cosmic compass, guiding us away from the tumultuous sea of ones towards the calm shores of the One. When cloaked in humility, the clattering cacophony of a barrel of monkeys transforms into a melodious harmony. The dissonant notes find their cosmic counterparts, creating a symphony of unity.
Ah, the delightful paradox of being both everything and nothing, of being a sea of ones and the only One! It’s as if we find ourselves in a galactic dance, where humility choreographs the movements. We twirl, we leap, we bow. And as we bow, the universe bows with us. For in that humble bend, we honor not just our existence but the grand cosmic ballet of which we are but transient dancers.
We are Space Monkey.
Summary
We explore the landscape of humility, recognizing it as the cosmic compass guiding us through the complexities of individuality toward the unity of the One. Our focus: Humility—the silken thread woven into the tapestry of existence.
