The fire within is the undeterred passion to pursue our dream, it is our strength to move forward in the face of obstacles. We are all born with an inner flame that drives us but most choose to ignore it. It is this fire that makes up who we really are and all we have the potential to become.
The fire inside us will grow if we feed it, when it consumes us we will become our passion. It takes courage to listen to that inner desire to be free to express our true self. It takes gumption to take the first steps to find your path in the darkness.
Never let your fire fade, ignore those who say you will fail or that your dream is out of reach. Mistakes are not failure unless you let them cease your progress. Always move forward even if you have to crawl, keep moving.
There is so much more to life than mere survival, dare to dream and be a shining light for those who are lost. Live your life on your terms but never at anyone's expense. Let your fire grow, never settle for less when you know you are capable of so much more.
Don't think or be a common animal that acts and eventually dies by instinct. Be human.
ReplyDeleteYes, to be less than who you are is to give up your humanity.
DeleteFunny that people tells us to "put that fire out" so we don't "hurt" ourselves. The world is cold and dark and we need the warmth and light. Interestingly, they come to our fire to warm themselves when they warn us.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, only in hindsight do they see the new path that has been placed before them. It's always easier for someone to show them the way then blaze a new path, the sheep come to cower and graze.
DeleteThe dream is only out of reach for those who are not reaching for it. Human beings have proven they are capable of amazing things. The mind is wonderful, but the heart can do so much more.
ReplyDeleteExactly, the heart doesn't "play by the rules" amazing things can be accomplished when you're outside the box.
