Why do we feel so powerless to have the life we want?  We want to be powerful.  We try to be powerful, but something stops us.  Where we are today is separate from our power because our true power lies in our connection with our true self, each other and with all of life, and we don’t really see ourselves as part of the fabric of humanity or the natural world – we see ourselves as separate from it.

True power comes from being connected with the whole.  This is about the power, the energy, the delight that allows us to be and do what is ours in the world.   The world’s harmony will increase as each of us fully expresses our true self.  What we can do, step by step, is to stitch ourselves back into the fabric of the universe.  This reconnection, this reunion is what connects us with the deep joy and freedom of our true selves.  And it brings harmony and peace to the world.

What sews me into the fabric of the universe is that I Belong to Beauty.  When I say it, it fills my body with a profound emotion that is a mixture of joy and love and gratitude.  I’ve discovered that I Belong to Beauty are the words in the English language that are most meaningful to me.  For some people, it might be belonging to Harmony, Peace, Love or any of a thousand other things.

When we say I Belong to, it unites us with the whole.  The source of everything in the universe is Belonging.  Everything else trickles out of that.  We are happy when we know we belong, we are healthy when we know we belong, we are rich in every way when we know we belong.  We know what to do in every moment because we belong.   Trust fills us.  Gratitude springs forth.  We are free.  Everything that is meaningful is implicit in We Belong.
