Will you let your light shine?

About Me

I'm impressed on how I live my life in spite of the things that I've lost along the way. Every obstacle I encounter presents an opportunity to improve myself as an individual. Good things can only happen with the help of good conditions which are created by each and every person around us. Isn't it true that it all depends on the way you look at things? I love the idea of focusing on strengths and talents as opposed to shortcomings and weaknesses. Materialism is toxic for happiness; so, happiness doesn’t seem to be attached to money and things. That was really no great revelation to me, and I assume everyone knows that as well. Happiness is a state of being, not a state of wealth. So what does make people happy? Life satisfaction occurs most often when people are engaged in absorbing activities that cause them to forget themselves, lose track of time and stop worrying. Now I try not to postpone, keep or not do anything that would add laughter and fun to others' lives. And everyday I tell myself that this day is special ... Everyday, every hour, every minute is special. I always go out of my way to help others so that I'd be able to share the blessings I have. It's certainly nice when someone notices me and is encouraged or heartened but, after all, isn't it the shining itself that is most important? Whether or not I feel as if I'm making a difference then just maybe someone is stumbling in discouragement or sadness or fear and in need of some of my light. Whatever light I offer may be a beacon of hope and encouragement in someone's darkness. I never stop dreaming for I know my family and friends always conspire to help me achieve my dreams. Lastly... I have faith! ;)
