Oneness

Equality

All people are equal.

The ego gleefully makes us feel inadequate to others. We can't forget that
the ego's only hold on us is in making us feel fearful, less than adequate
to the tasks and the people around us. Refusing to accept this as our
reality, takes both Herculean strength and the humility to look to the Holy
Spirit for a different perspective of ourselves.

While we are all equal, we each have different personalities, unique
strengths and weaknesses, and specific dreams and abilities. It's easier to
accept our complexities when we remember that every one of us is needed to
make the Whole. We all bring something vital to the "party."

When we believe in our equality, we are less threatened and more peaceful.
The next step then to accepting that we are all One, is not so far removed
from our understanding. When we understand our Oneness, we are home.

I am as I need to be. I am neither better

nor worse than my companions.

I am their equal in every way today.

"I slept and dreamed that life was joy.

I awoke and saw that life was service.

I acted and behold, service was joy."

~Rabindranath Tagore~
