You know, sometimes I wonder if we really are a "bright star"; the harm we've done to one another, our world; we have the potential to be that bright, but I fear that too many prefer to be destructive. We are quite a paradox, humans.

So true, the first verse when we are lost in the chaos of ego, and the the second true as we allow the power and light of our authentic selp to shine through. Well written my friend. Bill

Perhaps I am even 'cheekier' than Julie Andrew was, singing to the mirror in 'Mary Poppins.' Remember that?! :) gw
