The beginning of the end

When we let go of everything, like the need to be right, like attachments to everything and everyone, when we let go of our mind and the ego, then all the pressure in life goes with it.

This is true freedom. This is peace.

To get to this point is a journey, a practice, a change in habits, a choice, a willingness to allow things not to bother us. A decision to be present in this moment and not live in the past or project into the future. Consciousness leads to freedom.

However, once we start down the path, it is the beginning of the end of the daily suffering we put ourselves through, as once we see the light it brings to us we do not ever want to go back to the darkness of our minds.

Got to be worth a try.

Brighten by your example

Sharing your light with others
Sing your song so others can hear the beauty of your voice
Write your book so we can wonder at the lovely story
Dance your steps for others to enjoy

Make art for others to cherish
Create your ideas for others to behold
Be you and shine among us
Share your kindness for life around

We all have a bright light inside
Collectively we can shine
Together the world can be one
The light always takes away the dark

Share your bright light
Don’t fear what others will say
We have only one time to shine
Don’t miss your chance to brighten by your example
