Let Your Light Shine

Recently we have had some days of storm and I have some thoughts about driving in storms with the car lights off.   How do we expect an oncoming driver to be aware of our presence on the road if we don't have our head lights glowing?  In rain, fog, snow, I have had cars come out of the gloom ahead of me, dark in their approach.  Because of the conditions, hopefully both of our vehicles are being driven with care, but not having lights adds to the possibility of accidents no matter how careful we are. 

It has made me reflect on the storms we go through in life. No matter who we are, where we are, there are plenty of those storms.  If we don't try to have our own personal light shining, others may not be aware of our presence.   We might cause harm unwittingly to another person on the path of their earthly life.  Be aware of those around us. If we do try to have the light that comes with a good attitude, a love of others, the effort to be kind, we may be able to help someone who is traveling in the dark. 

Many do travel in the dark and often through no intention of their own. Circumstances, or even their background, past events or family upbringing might have left them in a blight of dark emotional stress. Some have no idea of how to be happy, even though they may envy others who exhibit happiness in their lives. They need to see that light shining from someone else. 

 Don't let someone else blow out the light you have within. This blog is about keeping your lights on, particularly when there is a storm  of any kind near you. If you are wrapped in storms of any emotional darkness, look for those who are moving through the storms, lights on to help light the way to happiness.
