Every soul seek to connect with other souls. The need to be
heard is an intrinsic component of the human design. Our existence is
tied to meeting needs. As mankind we all carry within us seeds of
greatness that seek fuller expression when this seed is recognized and utilized our lives become meaningful. The search for meaning becomes
fulfilled when each souls express its full capacity by meeting the needs
of other souls. As mankind we are here to meet needs. When the soul is
deprived of this great need ( the need to be heard) a sense of
disconnection is felt with other souls and lack of peace and unhappiness
will be the high cost for such deprivation which many seek to get by
becoming immersed in consumerism.
Beyond feeding, clothing and housing every soul seek
greater needs beyond the need to survive. Within every souls lies talent
and even in their most undeveloped states seek expression in order to
make meaning of its very existence. Developing our unique talent first
connects us with our true selves and when we share our talents with other
souls it connects us with others and make us a part of the bigger whole
which brings fulfillment and satisfaction to us. Despising this calling
separate us from the bigger whole and make our lives lack meaning. Their
is a voice within every soul that seeks to be heard. This voice is the
voice of our talents. This voice grows faint and lost its capacity for
growth when it is not effectively utilized. A finished car represents
the voices of many souls that has been given a chance to fully express
themselves. The Tyre, the steering, the car body, the bolts and nuts,
the paint, the bumper, the inbuilt radio, etc that makes up a complete
and highly improved car represents the input from many different souls
that bring their individual talents to achieve a common purpose to the
benefit of mankind. We can see the great connection of talents that
goes into the making of a single car. There is a great connection of
talents that goes into the making of music,art, TV's, computers ,
refrigerators, houses, movies, and many other things that is brought
into existence by man.
he souls great need is to be heard by expressing fully its
unique talents in order to connect and be a part of the greater whole.
No one talent is greater than the other so stop playing small and stop
seeing yourself as someone with a little talent. In the making of music
we often give credit to the musician and forget the input of many other
talents that contribute in making the music a success. In the making of
movies we celebrate the actors and overlook the input of many other
talents that worked together in unity to make the movies a success. Most
time we appreciate the finished product and fail to recognize the other
effort that come together to make the finished product a reality. Your
talent may not be among the ones that can easily be sighted but it can
greatly impact the lives of mankind when you work hard on it. Rejecting
your place of calling simply because you believe your talent is not
among the "exalted talents" that society easily recognize and praise is
shutting yourself from your true self. Lack of inner peace , fulfillment and lack of satisfaction will be a life long companion if
you fail to align yourself to your true calling. Apart from the praise
we get from aligning ourselves to those "glorified talents"
unfulfillment and lack of inner peace are the expensive price we tend to
pay in exchange for disconnecting ourselves from our true nature.
The
thing you joyfully and with less struggle even when you encounter
difficulties or difficulties is your true self. Challenges come to grow
us. Building your intellectual and emotional capacity enable you manage
challenges and protect your talents from losing it voice and capacity to
be heard. The truth is we feel small because we think small. We feel
small because we think small of our talents. The reality of the matter
is no one talent is greater than the other.
Years back photography was not seen beyond the walls of the
studio. Today talented photographers have taken to the streets
capturing all the beauties of nature which include man, plants, animals
of various kinds, mountains, flowers the sky etc. Today artistic makeup
has gained recognition, a talent that was unrecognized, despised and
treated as small or insignificant. Today make up artists are fast
gaining recognition as part of the people who are shaping the fashion
world. Talented make up artist are fast evolving employing artistic
method in bringing beauty to the faces of women. Any talent can make you
great if you put your heart to it. Their are nurses and their are
successful nurses, their are barbers and their are successful barbers,
their are dancers and their are successful dancers, their are musicians
and their are successful musicians . No one talent supposedly bring
success to the individual without working for it. Your talent require
great work on your part for it to stand firm in the commercial world. Be
yourself, align yourself to your true calling and let your voice be
heard.
