SPECIAL WORDS FROM PAUL

Special Words from Paul.

Do not place me above you for I am but humble teacher
for it was, it is, your love
that has seeded our friendship.
It is your questions that has
drawn the answers to you.
It is your heart of love
that has brought the river of compassion to you;
your intellect that has been wisdom’s sails.

Do not place me above you
for I am merely a gentle shower of rain 
that helps the tiny seed to grow.
But you are the seed
as indeed you are the tree.
We are the earth, we are the blossoms,
we are the leaves falling,
the bud opening, the cry of a child, 
the song of the bird 
and even the hum of the planet.

None of us are an island.
We are all dependent ultimately on each other’s love.
We are the gentle rain for our brother’s seed,
we are the earth for our sister’s growth, 
we are the wind, we are the sun,
to each other’s being- to each other’s survival.
We are the seed; we are that great tree of humanity.
And though our individual understanding
leads to different visions upon the path of our lives
these visions can be seen as great beams of light
radiating out into our Universe
diverse and boundless.

Important still to remember, and sometimes look back
and see not only the path’s future,
but also the source, the first step,
and know that in truth,
these great rays of individual vision and hope,
radiate from the same jewel
and are the facets of your unfolding.
Therefore do not judge or condemn,
but where you can join in a common light of love.
Be not impeded by words or traditions, colours or creeds.
There beats within the heart of all of you,
a song of ages, a song of futures,
you can sing, You can sing!

Be assured that in your growth and understanding 
and if you can, your forgiving and joining brother to brother,
nation to nation.
Be assured that where you come together in love, 
your trust in each other will be rewarded.
Your courage in letting go to old barriers
will create within and without great changes
from the sea to the land we came,
from the land to the starts we can go.
It is your heritage-yours by your birth.
You have the answers, you are the children.
You are part of the Gods.
Believe; be gentle, yet be strong in love.
