Custom

I'm used to it. 
I'm used to condescension, to disrespect, to malice, disregard, and false fronts. 
I'm used to half hearted attempts, selfish nature, and conflict. 
I know that this is common for many, so I'll speak as one of few. 
It seems like the only way above it,  beyond it , is to cultivate skill.
Cultivate it, not to silence the prior, but to place yourself into your own realm.
All of the tools that you need for liberation are within you. You were born complete, 
you were born enough.
​
Through cultivation of skill , you can act upon the world instead of being a victim to it.
In truth you only have control over your mind and your body. Expand your mind, 
push the limits of your body, and become what you can.
You may already far more free than you think. 
Step forward, honest with no apology, be yourself entirely, show us your Realm.
