The call sounds out
... they turn to listen. Laying down their tools their gleaming chariots streak
through the sky to bring them closer to the sacred meeting. They hold within
them a glowing flame of desire, burning with an urgency ... it is time to drink
from the holy trough ... it is time to blend their spirits ... opening .. giving
... with those of kindred soul. The hunger is real, coursing through their
essence. It has been awhile since they fed, their souls and minds are hungry.
Some are battle weary, some are battle strong ... each different and unique ...
each so the same. They come to this place ... it is time ... their time ... they
are eager to share, hungry to give ... they feel the power.
THEY ARE THE
MENTORS
The gathering assembles ...the room crackles with energy. The
new ones watch in awe, wondering what this is ... feeling ... not understand
what it is they feel ... their eyes dance from One to another One. The new ones
feel it, it is confusing, the power dances through the room with a life of it's
own. There are no boundaries, no locks on the gates and before them is the
feast. It shines with a light from the divine ... here is what they seek ... all
they would want to know ... they but have to receive.
They see they do
not even have to 'ask' to receive. Is it safe? Can they trust this? They have
been taught all their lives that you have to 'earn' what is here displayed so
freely in front of them, that there are conditions to receive such gifts ... and
yet here it is. They have but to accept and it is theirs.
They test the
Ones ... timidly ... the truth flows ... love sparkles and lights the room with
a glow ... there are no barriers ... sunlight dances into their souls. Can this
truly "BE"? Excitement stirs inside them, the power is born in a tiny little
spark and begins to grow. They will never be the same.
THE MEETING
BEGINS ... the energy explodes ... deeper and deeper ... the Ones listen to the
other Ones as if they are new ... feeding once again as they share. Their Leader
is missing, he cannot attend ... yet his spirit flows through the room ... he IS
there.
More and more, deeper, deeper and yet deeper ... the new ones
stare in wonder ... the Ones open their hearts, and give and give. They all
drink from the well of love and friendship. Their souls reach out, tenderly
touching and loving without condition. The intimacy is surreal, so hard to
understand ... it transcends all the new ones have felt before.
The
meeting ends. The synergy is alive in the room, you can feel the pulsing of the
hearts ... beating as one. In a breathless moment .. it is over. Pens suspended
in air ...
The Goodbyes are difficult for the Ones ... it has once again
been TOO good. The sweetness of the feast blends with the discomfort of the
parting. They draw apart, each taking with them a part of the other. Each
knowing a part of them lives beyond themselves now, within the souls of the new
ones and in the hearts of the Ones. They turn and return to their life's work,
once again listening carefully for the call to sound. The will always answer
because ... they are the Mentors.
