After a thousand years pass, it builds its own funeral pyre, lining it with cinnamon, myrrh and cassia. Climbing to a rest on the very top, it examines the world all throughout the night with the ability to see true good and evil. When the sun rises the next morning, with great sorrow for all that it sees, it sings a haunting song. As it sings, the heat of the sun ignites the expensive spices and the Phoenix dies in the flames. But the Phoenix is not remarkable for its feathers or flames. It is most revered for its ability to climb from its own funeral pyre, from the very ashes of its old charred body, as a brand new life ready to live again once more. Life after life, it goes through this cycle. It absorbs human sorrow, only to rise from death to do it all again. It never wearies, it never tires. It never questions its fate. Some say that the Phoenix is real, that it exists somewhere out there in the mountains of Arabia, elusive and mysterious. Others say that the Phoenix is only a wish made by desperate humans to believe in the continuance of life. But I know a secret. We are the Phoenix. ↗

و قد تسألين كيف ارتقت به هذه العظمة الكاذبة من درجة الى درجة، و من مكانة الى مكانة، و لكني أرجو أن تكوني أقل سذاجة من هذا يا سيدتي، فليس ينبغي أن تسألي عن الضعفاء و العاجزين كيف يرتفعون فذلك ملائم لطبيعة الاشياء، و انما يجب أن تسألي عن الأكفاء كيف يثبتون في مواضعهم و كيف يتاح لبعضهم أن يرقى إلى شئ من امتياز المنصب و ارتفاع المكانة فذلك هو المخالف للطبيعة، المباين لمنطق الدنياكما يقول أديب من أصدقائنا ↗
I learned early that crying out in protest could accomplish things. My older brothers and sister had started to school when, sometimes, they would come in and ask for a buttered biscuit or something and my mother, impatiently, would tell them no. But I would cry out and make a fuss until I got what I wanted. I remember well how my mother asked me why I couldn't be a nice boy like Wilfred; but I would think to myself that Wilfred, for being so nice and quiet, often stayed hungry. So early in life, I had learned that if you want something, you had better make some noise. ↗
All life is energy and we are transmitting it at every moment. We are all little beaming little signals like radio frequencies, and the world is responding in kind. ↗
An average person with average talent, ambition and education can outstrip the most brilliant genius in our society, if that person has clear, focused goals. ↗
After all, none of us came here to live an ordinary life. Whether we believe it or not, we are all destined for greatness. ↗
