Everything we say

Everything we say and do is an act of power.  It creates an action that reverberates throughout us and those that we interact with.  Much of what we do, say and are is not necessarily conscious but buried beneath the surface like an iceberg. Yet there is always a surface that is showing and affecting us deeply.  As we realize this we become watchful and often make up rules about the need to be vigilant.  This is a limiting way to do it that is fraught with drama.  Instead, feeling the sub-currents of sensation that these acts of power produce is the path to freedom because we no longer are trapped by our power.  We are instead, set free.  ~Alain & Jody Herriott
