Ever been lost in the woods? Deep, dark forest with no reprieve of moonlight or star shine.
It gets pretty damn cold and damp - like soul sucking dark there. It can be a scary place.
Sometimes that’s where my soul wants to roam off to. I don’t always know why, but it does. Maybe it’s my past calling to distract the healthier man I’ve become. Who knows?
Being lost sucks. There is a searching to find ourselves. No matter where we are there’s a moment when we realize that we’re lost, that we’ve become someone else. Some stranger - possibly like Mike Meyers or Jason Voorhees (hopefully not QUITE like those characters!).
We need to look down, look around and start seeing the person who we really are inside. It may be a long journey or maybe something that comes rather quickly. But we get to do this. We get to find ourselves (who we truly are), what makes us tick, makes us smile and also what makes us cry. Then we get to put all those things together in one beautiful package that’s really not about the outward looks, but what’s inside…
And that’s where the glow comes from. It does show on our outside, but it starts with that little spark inside our heart.
And in that searching, in that finding we’ll start finding more of the light.
Let your TRUE LIGHT SHINE!
