You don’t owe loyalty
to past stories,
you are not bound
by what you’ve done before
You are not bound by thoughts
or what you think people expect
or by trajectories you launched
from where you were
You are here now,
and what you are
comes to you fresh and pure
in this moment of your being,
in this moment of receiving
what is given you
and what you’re called to give.
