What we are and
what we seem to be can be as radically different as an eagle egg lying
in a sharp-twigged eagle nest and an eagle itself soaring on a current
of air above majestic mountains. The difference in
the two lies strictly in the word awareness. The eagle was
once inside that egg. It's wings, its sharp eyes, its talons, its
ability to know where it belongs and what it is created to do. Humans are not
all that different. Every physical characteristic we have today was in
the fertilized ovum inside our mother's body when it was so small it
could not be seen by the naked eye. The color of our eyes was right
there in that tiny speck. Our body shape. All the characteristics that
make up our appearance. Speaking of
Christ, John said he is "the light that lights up every man coming
into the world." So there was a seed of Light within that ovum.
There was a higher nature. It is our
awareness of that seed of Light that determines how well we soar. It
even has a role in shaping our physical form. As we follow its wisest
intuitions, we are literally learning the highest path of life. It is my thought
that the eagle's ability to soar comes from that same Light. No one
needs to teach the eagle to soar. All the parent eagles do is stir up
the nest so that the twigs have sharp points to make baby eagle
unconfortable. They force it out of the rest and over the precipice
knowing the ability to spread its wings and fly is built in. No one has
ever seen an eagle crash! The parents have a minor role in teaching baby
eagle but the main enabler is the Light-bestowed pattern. That pattern
is right there in the egg in the nest. The lesson for us
is to honor the yolk and outwork everything that is built into our
being. The patterns are there. We merely unfold them. It is like a large
flag unfurling one fold at a time. It is like a beautiful flower
we put forth, one petal at a time. The same Light
that shined life and all our basic patterns into us in the fertilized
ovum is available to us all our lives, to shine into all the darknesses
we encounter internally and externally. We are born with this
God-installed flashlight that enables us to see into the very roots and
branches of our being. Keep shining! Dalton's website
