I Dedicate This To All Light-Bringers: "Do It Anyway" - by Mother Teresa
My friends. My fellow light bringers and awakeners. My brothers and sisters. Those of you who are here at this time to lead humanity into its next iteration, this is for you.
You will be misunderstood.
This world is not always ready for the light, innocence, paradox, joy, mystery, faith, love and generosity you are here to bring forth. Most of all, people are not always ready for change when they don't understand its nature.
When you are ready to step out into the world with the intention to bring forth something new, something true, something bright, you may, for now, receive challenge and opposition.
When the world and those closest to you begin to turn their minds against you, know that it is only their minds, and not their true Self. Forgive them, for they know not what they cannot yet know.
I encourage you to focus on the love, support and friendship that does and will surround you in these times and understand that with each challenging junction in your journey, the world within and around you is being separated into parallel realities and you are faced with a real and powerful decision to make.
Do you wish to live in a world of naysayers, skeptics, small minds and self-serving people, or do you wish to stay true to the new reality you intuit is inevitable?
Stay true. No matter what.
Stay true to your innermost self; not your mind, but your innermost Heart.
Those who know themselves only through mind, will always doubt you and your intentions when you are coming from Heart. The mind does not have the vocabulary needed to translate or even perceive the signals coming from the Heart.
Your very existence, no matter how pure, will scare some, and all they will know to throw at you is labels and accusations in their attempt to stop you from being what they cannot yet comprehend, and therefore fear.
Expect heaps of misunderstanding from those around you, loved ones included. This is OK.
Be you anyway.
Have faith in yourself no matter what.
I love you, and in addition to the poem below, may this article be an additional source of support for you to continue courageously along your path to bring more light and love into the asylum of man: The challenging Journey to Becoming God (through being fully yourself).
Also, if you seek a supportive community, we are here and have been here for a while to support you and each other. Join our loving community on Facebook.
Jocelyn Daher sent me the following poem:
The following version of "Do It Anyway" was found written on the wall in Mother Teresa's home for children in Calcutta:
People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered.
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives.
Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies.
Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you.
Be honest and sincere anyway.
What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight.
Create anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous.
Be happy anyway.
The good you do today, will often be forgotten.
Do good anyway.
Give the best you have, and it will never be enough.
Give your best anyway.
In the final analysis, it is between you and God.
It was never between you and them anyway.
