269) A Trans Girl Playing Chess

You cannot TRY to live with wisdom.  Kind of like Yoda said, “Do or do not; there is no try.”  You cannot TRY to be authentic.  You can just be authentic, or not.  Because the simple truth is, if you are not fully connected within yourself, if you are not plugged into your Self, if you are not grounded in Love, then everything is half-hearted. 

And as Rumi says, “Half-heartedness does not reach into majesty.”
