SOAPBOX® mini-motivation: follow the light

“At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us.”     ~ Albert Schweitzer, theologian, philosopher & medical missionary

From a bird’s eye view it often appears that our society is a chaotic smattering of wound-up little armored bodies flurrying about this earth, often filled to the utmost brim with just enough energy each waking day to create, communicate and motivate.  Yet, suffice it to say,  each of you are still a flawed, fragile soul whose fuel often flickers out as challenges of worldly thoughts and actions crowd in and around your hopes.

And how often, when you look back…if even yesterday…can you recall how someone so very special crossed your path, and the hand of magic waved a small miracle.  Your heart and head lit up as if ignited; another’s mere words, laughter, touch or gesture of kindness striking a match to your spirit’s wick.  And your eternal light was reignited with more purpose, more peace, more bliss.

Folks, true blessings do not come in papers, packages and promotions.  Instead, they have a pulse and the gloriously gorgeous gift of timing to arrive when truly needed.  So bask in the glow that only two souls can emit, and for everyone’s sake…BE THANKFUL.     ~ KD
