Traveling early today. Please enjoy this message from a year ago!

12/26/16
You walk along
a darkened path
with a flashlight
in your hand –
the small beam
of light cuts
through the darkness,
enough that you can see
where your next step
may be,
as you cautiously
follow the light.
And do you not think,
“This would be easier
if I only had more light?”
So on your next trek
through the darkened path –
you now carry a
bigger light
and now you can see
further along
and around the path –
you are walking with
greater ease,
no longer worried
that you may take
a misstep or
to lose your way.
And with this bigger light –
you are now able
to see others
walking around you –
carrying their
beaming lights –
and you see that
if all shine their lights
together,
do the beams not combine
to illuminate more
of the path
that you are all
walking along?
And yet – do you not all think,
“This would be easier
if we only had more light?”
And then – at the break of dawn,
does not a greater light appear –
the sun arises on a new day,
bringing light so all may see –
illumining what is
always there –
be it dark or light?
And do you not realize
you can spend your time
hoping and waiting
for more light to come
to shine the way
so you may see,
but do you not have
within You,
all the Light you need?
And when you shine
your Light of Love –
illuminating exactly
where You Are –
is this not the perfect
place to Be?
And is not the Light
you shine,
the perfect Light
to show the way –
as you walk with
greater ease,
knowing you will
not lose your way?
And with each of You
shining your Lights of Love –
are you not already
connected by the Light
that flows through All?
The Light and Love
of All That Is,
is all you need
to walk along
any path that comes
your way.
There Is Light.
There Is Love.
There You Are.
Walk on
with Light.
Walk on.
