This world has a way of trying to homogenize you. Trying to sanitize you. Trying to scrub you of your unique divine genius. This world wants to make you regular.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We must overcome the notion that we must be regular... it robs you of the chance to be extraordinary and leads you to the mediocre.
Either you think, or else others have to think for you and take power from you, pervert and discipline your natural tastes, civilize and sterilize you.
God wants to use you to make other people happy! And the happier you make others, the happier you will be because you reap what you sow.
This is the kind of world I was born in, one in which I had only one reason for existence: pleasing others.
After many years of great mercy, after tasting of the powers of the world to come, we still are so weak, so foolish; but, oh! when we get away from self to God, there all is truth and purity and holiness, and our heart finds peace, wisdom, completeness, delight, joy, victory.
Sometimes you have to be okay with what you are to the world, where you are in the world, and make the most of it.
If changing our world is playing God, it is just one more way in which God made us in His image.
The way you become divine is to become wholly human.
The world is a perpetual caricature of itself; at every moment it is the mockery and the contradiction of what it is pretending to be.
You don't have to be like everybody else or do things like everybody else. God created you to be a unique individual, and He wants you to be free to be who He made you to be.
