It is about discovering the truth of who we are and what we can share with the world, not just the small stuff, but that which is truly epic.
I was asking myself that question this morning. I have no problem producing artsy things to share or sell, but I thought about the perspective of my sphere of knowledge. I have lots of experience, but in the big scheme of things, what I know is small, not anything epic by a long shot.
I share where I'm at now. It's like walking down a dark road with a weak flashlight that also flickers. Stuff out of scary movies, right?
But I take one step forward, and that's as far as I can see.
I guess that's living in the now.
And that's all there is.
My fearful little self doesn't like it, not by a long shot. Maybe the only epic action in life is to step off the proverbial cliff and see what happens. (I'm afraid of heights.) Epic is to do "it" no matter what. Maybe you have to risk is all to have it all?
I look at people who have epic concepts and I wonder how they came across such knowledge. I believe we're all made to be epic in the best possible way.
What is the divinely inspired "thing" that sets me apart from others and allows me to create epic shit that only I can create.
I honestly don't know.
I want to know. I go within and ask in meditation, but the Universe is strangely quiet lately. To my ears at least, or maybe I'm not really listening. I'm multi-tasking writing this blog post in my head and planning out my day. I'm just thinking of the few paces I can see ahead, and they are mighty small from an epic perspective.
So I miss the point of stepping into epic. However, I can only act from where I am right now.
What is epic anyway? I don't know. It's a concept. Frodo's struggle to bring the ring to the Mount of Doom was epic. In that sense epic is something that is greater than us. Frodo could not do it alone. He got help along the way.
To create something massively awesome that affects a lot of people in a good way is beyond one person alone, but it can be done with a little help from your friends.
To dare to create something, however small is an epic action since most people never create anything, just live day by day in zombie land.
Say you get an epic inspiration for something so big it scares the pants off of you. It's not like you can turn your back on that. It's like a "knowing" and once you know, you can't un-know it. But you have no idea how to implement it into 3D living.
All you can do is take one step forward and as the whole plan is slowly revealed people will show up along the path to help because it's epic. They can see the value of your inspiration.
Truth is you're the driver; you're the one who takes action every day.
I'm good at taking action.
Until epic strikes I can take one step forward, and then another one until I'm ready. Yeah, I guess that's it. It's very likely the steps actually lead to epic but I can never be certain.
One step at a time, and I'm golden.
What are you doing that is worthwhile today?
