Fuel is energy, and we need lots of it! But even more important to keep in mind is that we are it! We are the fuel and we are what is fueled. So ask yourself: What fires you up? What ignites your passion? Satisfying work can be fuel (rather than using up your fuel). So can friends and community. Good deeds and faith can be fuel that keep us burning steadily and strongly. But the best fuel is love. When you fuel your life with love, you are both ignited and at peace, at the same time. You become synchronized with yourself. The secret of alchemical transformation doesn’t teach how to use energy to become something or someone else, but how to become your essence, your essential self.
