💡 Think:
We can feel crushed by negative experiences, by upsetting news in the world. Like the olive in a press, that sense of despair, when channeled, can be used to express our essence, to produce the oil with which we shine.
But there’s a second level of inner revelation: When the world seems ‘normal,’ life just goes on . . . and the very fact that we have not yet reached true universal goodness, crushes the person - galvanizes him or her - to truly reach the essence and change the world.
