Nothing Grows in the Dark
LIGHT: –noun
"something that makes things visible or affords illumination""
The body is a vessel of energy. We chose whether or not, and, how much to do so. The simplest things can effect people in ways unimaginable. Call it the butterfly effect. I strive to become a pillar of fortitude to those I encounter. I try to touch the soul whenever possible. Many people have in fact had this effect on me as I've grown in this world. I am human, though, and not above reproach. Sometimes my light does not shine outward. Dark crevices swallow the light at times. I know I have to better quell my darkness in order to grow. As titled, Nothing Grows in the Dark. Shine your light on others. Whatever that light may be....it can be as simple as a smile (which I believe is a tremendous beacon of love and respect), the words "thank you" go a long way with many people. Respond with "yes" rather than "what" or "yeah." Pay attention to detail. Avoid confrontation and pitfall with kindness and wisdom. If I shine with you, it's only a matter of time before more shine with us. Do you go out of your way to help people out when you can? Do you live for yourself or for others? Do you feel apart of the human family?
Continue to shine. Continue to share and effect those you encounter - no matter the race, color, or creed.
