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.


See you tomorrow and keep pursuing,

JC

There were a few mornings where I slept in a little later (8:00 being “later”) to get some additional rest, or instead of keeping to my Self to write, I hung out with the dads, helped make breakfast, or got...

“To be empowered—to be free, to be unlimited, to be creative, to be genius, to be divine—that is who you are…. Once you feel this way, memorize this feeling; remember this feeling. This is who you really are….” - Joe Dispenza Last evening, I found out that one of my instructors for my Registered Life Planner designation and a dear friend had unexpectedly passed away. As I reflected on our conversations outside of class, which always centered on the woo subjects we both believe in, I thought...

“The eye sees only what the mind is prepared to comprehend.” -Robertson Davies I don’t know about you, but I’ve always thought that my eyes are what see the world in front of me. But the truth is our eyes don’t see anything, they just collect information and feed it to our brain—so it is our brain that actually sees. I don’t know how much our mind shapes the physical world we see—I don’t think we can make a tree appear that isn’t already there. But, I do know the world we see through...
