With all that is happening in our world, it's easy to feel like we need to attend to the struggle. We are each here to offer our strengths, and that's what is most important for us to stay focused on. So the best use of our time and energy in these days of change is to spend it on connecting with our essence. Essence is what brings us joy, assists us in making human connections, and keeps us acting in authentic ways as we walk in the world. When we connect with our essence others receive our true energy in ways that make us shine. This energy exchange encourages those who are around us to shine also. Our true work--our true selves--these are the bright lights we were brought here to express and to share with each other. Bring your shining essence to the world!
"...stand up and show your soul. Soul on deck shines like gold in dark times. The light of the soul throws sparks, can send up flares, builds signal fires, causes proper matters to catch fire. To display the lantern of the soul in shadowy times like these--to be fierce and to show mercy toward others; both are acts of immense bravery and greatest necessity."
--Clarissa Pinkola Estes
