Who Are You? by Dyan Garris
Who are You?
A new day brings with it some challenging questions if we are willing to ask them. Why are we so fragile? Why are we so helpless? Why do we perceive ourselves as powerless? Why are we so full of drama? Why are we so victimized by everything, past and present? Why do we give our power away? Why must we know the future? What has happened to our faith? And what is it that we really want? What in the world makes us whole? What is it that gives us peace?
If you won the lottery would that do it for you? If Oprah came around and handed you a million, would that do it? If you went on a game show that is all about the winning of money, does that do it? Oh yes, it makes life easier here, doesn’t it? But, what does it take for us to give ourselves what we really need on deeper levels? Or have we so convinced ourselves that money, money, money is the answer to all of our problems? We keep putting gas in the fuel tank of our own challenges and possible destruction, whether we get that or not. Isn’t putting gas in a tank what we’ve done for years? We are being challenged now to do something else, to break those patterns and find a different way, and we approach that challenge kicking and screaming like little tantruming children.
You may think by now that I’m some kind of minimalist. Not so. It’s just that the concept of money, it’s importance, it’s meaning, it’s perceived power has become so utterly and totally distorted that we have lost sight of who we are and what money really is. It’s just that if I didn’t have any money, then I would still know how to create whatever brings me what I perceive that I need here. I know who I am without it and who I am with it. Pieces of paper do not change who I am. They may change the way I live, but not who I am. What about you? Who are you?
