As we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. – Nelson Mandela, 1994 Inaugural Speech
Thought for today – I admire people who choose to shine even after all the storms they have been through.
Welcome back to Renew Inspiration! I choose to shine bright on today. How about you? Now, it’s important to note that the ways I choose to shine may be different than yours on any given day, but the end result should be the same, we’re shining! Our lives should be an example and reflect positive vibes through the eyes of others. For example, it seems like random people always offer positive compliments regarding my smile or grateful compliments for the kind gestures that I showed them (holding the door open or just saying hello or good morning. Even when I am not feeling well or just simply having a bad day, I try hard not to reflect my negative vibes and feelings toward others. As we travel along this journey called life, we will experience some ups and downs. However, the way we respond to life’s challenges is the key to overcoming the obstacles that occur in our lives.
I am totally safe and surrounded by love, light, peace and joy. – Unknown
