Holding Light

We are each gifted in a unique and important way.

It is our privilege and our adventure

to discover our own special light.

Evelyn Dunbar

It is my desire to not only work in the light but to be light itself.  As an energy worker, I work with light on a daily basis.  For me, light is filled with Divine Spirit and energy.  We are all made of energy so working with light is enhancing energy that already exists.

I believe in Oneness, we are all one in the same.  What I do to you, impacts my self.  What you extend to me, returns to you. I strive to respect energy found in all things living or not.  If you do not understand this theory, pick up a rock that has been sitting in the sun.  Feel the warmth and the energy spread into the palm of your hand.  The rock holds energy.  Sit in the presence of a full moon and as you gaze upon it, you will feel the moon's energy.

I hold light in my body in a meditative state.  I send light to other people, bathe them in light, and hold them in light.  Any light I send out into the world helps to create more light.  Yes, there is darkness, but light can be brought into the darkness.  

I try to be a person who walks around discovering the light in others.  We all have different energy levels and frequencies.  To experience energy in others can be very powerful.  I easily sense both positive and negative energies.  It is quite similar to knowing if someone is in a good mood or bad mood ... you sense it.  Our energy puts out a vibration that impacts everything surrounding us. 

Light or energy is a form of Spirit and extending it non-verbally to others can be compared to offering a blessing, like "Peace be with you".   I am not going to be found wandering around the grocery store muttering blessings to others, but I certainly will be sending light silently to most everyone I encounter. 

This is how I experience light, but how do you experience it?  Is it a goodness you express through acts of kindness?  Does your light take the form of prayer?  Maybe you offer services that brings light into others lives.  But you do have a light.  Some may call it 'the light of Christ' or 'a spark of the Divine' or 'a golden heart'.  Have you discovered your own personal light?

Isn't it time that you did?
