But if we hide ourselves away, afraid to grow and learn, we might wake up in the flames of the ignorance that burns and we'll never be much more than only casualties of war in a struggle we can't win if we have no faith to begin. We've got to tip the lid and let some sunlight in.
Dawud Wharnsby AliIf we can just be brave enough to be each others mirror, we may finally recognize the face of conscious that we fear.
Dawud Wharnsby AliIf we can take the time to mute the noise we've build around ourselves the rhythm of the heartbeats and the purpose may be clear.
Dawud Wharnsby AliIt has nothing to do with age, it's not our languages, religion, gender, coulour of our skin; It's a soul within a well, that echoes deep beneath the ego's shell. True life can't ever start, until we offer up our heart.
Dawud Wharnsby AliWe must begin looking at each other as brothers and sisters...and not walking brochures. We must see each other's strengths and encourage those strengths....We must see each others weaknesses and be patient with those weaknesses... sometimes even look beyond what we see as "weaknesses" and move on with compassion and love and respect. That takes true faith.
