When I receive these pocket-sized Wisdoms, I sometimes can't believe their Brilliance. I can't believe that within me is this Wisdom. And I can't believe that I am sharing this recognition of my Brilliance, for I have never shared or honoured my Brilliance publicly before. Not was that ever encouraged by society, by community, by family.
You see, what was encouraged was this perception that you may sense your Brilliance, but not do you outwardly applaud it, not do you praise your Brilliant Self, not do you acknowledge publicly your vastness of shine. No, you actually cover it up, you actually pretend it's not there. You are humble, modest and unassuming. By no means do you show-off at all:
Stop showing off. You're just a show-off. You big show-off. As if showing off could be worse than having nothing to show.
But there's a misguided belief feeding such restrain, and that is the belief that we are in competition at all times. You see, we have failed to appreciate that the Brilliance of another is a reflection of our own. We have failed to realise that showing off is not shameful, but Brilliant.
Look at the stars: they show off their Brilliance night after night after night. And because they divinely source their Brilliance from the All, what they show off is the unclouded purity of light. They shine their Brilliance unclouded by fear of competition with one another.
Can you imagine how we would shine freely with that awareness? How we would not shine our fear but our fullness? How we would not shine to outshine, but simply because shining is how we honour who we are?
These stars, they can teach us a valuable lesson. They can teach us that shining is not a stunt or a gimmick or a presence of ego — that is shining fear, that is fearful shining, that is not our Brilliance shining purely from within, because when we are purely radiating our fullness, our shining doesn't have a purpose of overshadowing another; it's purpose is to stimulate another to shine.
When I share all that I receive with you, there is not one aspect of my truth that wishes to outshine you. There is simply a deep honouring of my Brilliance because I know that when I honour my Brilliance, I am honouring yours. When these stars shine, they shine not singularly, not in isolation; they know that their Brilliance is the shining of them all.
I invite you to show off your Brilliance purely, and the brighter you shine, the more brilliantly you will honour me. Competition is unnecessary when we are aware of our connectedness. Compete not for anything other than the privilege of honouring the all, and here you can deem that competition to be a healthy retraining of the mind.
May we honour our Brilliance, shine our fullness, illuminate the dark, and guide each other Home.
Thank you.
Kirsty
