Imagine being a piano your whole life and only randomly poking and prodding keys from time to time.
Imagine being a piano your whole life, filled with every string and key of potential to play the most beautiful of songs any of our ears have ever heard… and only making noise.
Imagine being a piano your whole life and never playing or creating a single song…
You are a piano.
And what most people do is poke and prod and make a bunch of noise. They watch tv, scroll social media, rage bait, rabbit-hole click, suppress emotions, use divisive language, pick fights, litter their waste, complain about their problems, binge eat, cheat, point fingers, and do drugs and drink alcohol to make it all feel temporarily better.
You might as well just throw the piano into the garbage at this rate.
But, if you zoom out for a second and quiet the noise of your mind…
What you might hear… very faintly and as quiet as can be… is a melody…
…Resonating from deep within—where your song potential sits patiently.
And all you have to do is continue to clear the mind and concentrate on the sound to bring the volume up slowly.
And eventually… your song and various melodies will take priority over the noise… it’ll become the new priority of your time and energy… and what you’ll soon see…
Is that you are, indeed, a piano.
And that your life’s task… is to play your song and melody.
P.s. I finished uploading quotes from A Psalm For The Wild Built to MMQ. You can read my favorites here.
