you are the light


“You are the light.
It’s not on you.
It’s in you.
Don’t ever you in your life, dim your light for nobody.”
​
- St. Chroma, Tyler, the Creator

Tyler, the Creator’s new album starts with this message from his mother, who acts as his guide throughout the album.

It’s an excellent message for all of us to remember because maybe we’re in a position where light seems to be shining on us, or we’re chasing others who we think have light shining on them. We need to remember that the light is within us, so we don’t need to ever worry about losing it or needing to chase it—it’s already here.

We just need to find it within and let it shine.

Sometimes I catch my Self thinking about what I would only do each day if life allowed it… Mindfulness practice Physical activities like yoga, weights, biking, basketball, walking, and maybe running Family time Creative work Client work Networking/Connecting Rest/Sleep Pretty simple. All of these show up in my daily life; however, a lot of other things show up that limit the time I have for these few areas. There is also room for improvement in discipline that would help with allocating more...
