EMBERS OF SIGNIFICANCE

“Many fires burn below the surface.”-Empedocles

You can’t see it. You can’t hold it with your hands. You can’t take it with you.

But make no mistake, the fire is there.

This burning point inside the individual is something that each and every one of us has within our possession. A unique inner flame. Inner embers of significance, that if properly stoked, can become a raging inferno.

Yet so many flee from this fire. They douse the flames rather than kindle them. They conform rather than burn.

Why?

Simple.

It is easier to play it safe and conform. Easier to walk among the other drones. Easier not to rock the boat. Easier to be mediocre. Easier to exist, but not to live.

The fire, when unleashed, can be dangerous. It can become a raging conflagration that can consume us. It can burn away the mediocrity and conformity that clothes our identity. It can make us a target.

Most importantly, it hurts.

It BURNS.

The process of stoking this fire will change you for the better. Once you emerge from the flames, you will be a different person, a better person, a person that society needs.
