Be the Light
Working on yourself, in an effort toward self-improvement, lifts us out of the darkness and lifts the heaviness within our souls. This improves our relationship with ourselves and others around us.
We leave an energetic footprint everywhere we go, our words can be heard and felt long after they have been spoken so let’s choose our words wisely. Let your words pass through three gates before speaking:
‘Before you speak,
let your words pass through three gates,
Is it true, is it necessary, is it kind’
- Rumi
Be the light, it may touch one person and make their day, their week their year.
‘There is always light if only we’re brave enough to see it.
If only we’re brave enough to be it’
- Amanda Gorman - the youngest inaugural poet in US History at President Joe Biden’s inauguration speech
here is an Ancient Chinese Proverb below.
If there is light in the soul,
There will be beauty in the person.If there is beauty in the person,
There will be harmony in the house.If there is harmony in the house,
There will be order in the nation.If there is order in the nation, There will be peace in the world.
