The Brightest Star

A speck of sand
    dust on the land
  Is not what I am...

  I am the brightest star
    in the universal plan
      ~ For I am Man

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.

I always found Kildare and Ben Casey to be a par-a-dox.

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
