Love as You must love, serve as You must serve

The universe supports you to the degree that you are passionate about sharing your unique gift. Only when you risk giving yourself away do you discover who you are.

And only then does the Goddess pay attention, bending every law of nature to uphold you. But she is not the slightest bit interested when you merely imitate someone else.

Why were you created? Don't just say "to love and to serve." That is a platitude. The universe is specific. She loves detail, every brush stroke, down to the bindhu of a single photon.

Don't be a generality. Love as You must love, serve as You must serve, despite the world's opinion. That is courage. That is faith.

Be passionate about your work, even if no one else is. The cosmos is impoverished when you are not You.
