Being the Light

I have been thinking about this idea for some time now. We have a lot of options in life. We can bring good or bad into this world. We can choose to focus on all the drama that goes on day in and day out or we can focus on what really matters to us. When I talk about being the light I am talking about being the one that brings things into focus. The individual that can see through all the chaos and see the true diamond that is hidden. It brings to mind to me a picture I once saw. A family had lost their entire home to a natural disaster and the little girl in the picture was looking at the scraps of materials left from her dolls. It made me think about what must be going through her mind at that time. If we are going to be the light we have to be the one that does not allow all the fluff of the world to cloud our vision. We have to be able to see the good that is in all of us. My challenge for you today is simple: Instead of complicating your life today how can you simply your life? How can you change your vision of something and take it to its bare minimum? What does really matter in all the fluff that you see?
