If suddenly or gradually a wave of creative empowerment flows into what you do, and your activity expands beyond anything you could have imagined, don't let it go to your head, because up there is where a remnant of ego may be hiding.
You are still an ordinary human. What is extraordinary is what comes through you into this world. But that essence you share with all beings.
The fourteenth-century Persian poet and Sufi master Hafiz expresses this truth beautifully: "I am a hole in a flute that the Christ's breath moves through. Listen to this music."
