Evolution of the Human Heart & Psyche...

If Slavery only ended,
Two lifetimes ago...
Then I must remember,
That we're very slow to grow...

To force a change so sudden
Is way too much to ask...
The way the human heart unfolds
A very grueling task...

Inner Goals...

Exploring what lies latent within me... while shedding the images of self... the images I attempt to project outward, those built up self-images seeking outward approval...

Letting go of ego... relinquishing protection of ego and being okay with what is... No fighting to prove I am this, or I am that... Instead trusting in whatever is already there within...

Letting go of perceived prices on actions... I want to get to the point where I feel no one owes me anything... I want my actions to be actions I did "Just because." Well, more like "Just because I care." I want to be free from tit for tat. I want to love, I want to act... just because I can... just because I want to... just because those around me are important to me...

I want to be more magnanimous...

I want to be free of self-concern, because no matter what happens... everything will be okay so long as I can get out of my own way...

In releasing looking at myself inwards too much... I hope to be free to look outward... To see others more clearly... To understand with clarity their wants, desires, concerns, their needs at a given moment... Energy expended on myself during self-absorption can be shunted and projected outwards...

Trust... Courage... Strength... Faith... To Love... This is what I pray for... My deepest wishes...
