“The secret to life is to put yourself in the right lighting. For some, it's a Broadway spotlight; for others, a lamplit desk. Use your natural powers -- of persistence, concentration, and insight -- to do work, make art, think deeply.”
~ Susan Cain
You know how differently you can appear in the mirror from one department store fitting room to another? In fact, you can search and find reviews of the lighting and mirrors in the major chains.
The right lighting matters even more as, throughout life, we try on not new clothing to wear
but things to explore, to discover, to create, to do, to be.
As Susan says, some of us feel comfortable - perhaps even need - being in the spotlight. For some of us it's a lamp or a torch or maybe a soft candle.
Let's commit to using our natural powers and inherent gifts to help us hear and respond to the needs and dreams of our souls and to shine in the world for the good of all.
With
courage,
Charlene
