"We are at our most powerful the moment
we no longer need to be powerful."
Eric Micha'el Leventhal
My mind has never yearned for physical power. I am more reclusive, wishing from afar for the person or the situation to disappear. Although I have felt physically threatened, I have never intended for a person to physically fear me.
It was with words that I felt powerful. I was keen on the ability to cast words with fury or insult, stopping my foe instantly in his or her tracks. There was a time I actually prided myself in producing a facial reflection of disgust altering an opponents approach.
In time, I learned to accept myself and love who Divine Spirit made me to be. There was no need for control or competition as my focus was centered on healing the wounded parts of myself. Creating self-respect and honoring all of my parts, I am more capable of embracing others just as they are ... uniquely rich in beauty. My heart remans open to love and respect others.
