Little joys.

I don’t really remember this day some years ago... I don’t remember anything much about it, but I do remember this moment. We, my cousins and I, just playing around with this “piece of light.”

Sometimes I have to remind me that there is light because I indulge too easily to darkness; but my smile is always showing itself in the corners of my own self, reminding me that I am just over-thinking and over-worrying about everything, as usual, and life still has way too many “treasure chests” to offer me, I am just starting.

I invite everybody to turn on their lights, whatever this is: reading your sacred book, connecting with your divinity, dancing under the moonlight, drawing and scribbling, baking cookies, running in the forest, singing out loud, etc, whatever it takes to bring the light from outside, back inside you. Let’s commemorate this day doing that special something a bit more than usual. Let’s enjoy it.
