The sun sets on another day…
The sun wanders across the sky daily, never wavering, always there, and ready to shine a little light on our lives.
It is funny how light shines isn’t it. We all can shine a little some days, and some days some people are a little dark. There are people who shine like a 30 watt bulb, and there are people who put the sun to shame with their glaring brilliance. Who do you want to be? Each of us has the opportunity to be the best we can be, and continue to shine each day, or to not shine. It is our choice. We can be that person that lifts others up, or not.
I have met a lot of people in my life and I know it is hard to stay positive in times that are potentially dark, but I can tell you it is worth it. Last week I was walking into a store and a woman was walking with head down, looking sad, and I smiled and brightly said “How are you today.” as she looked up I smiled and she slowly smiled and said, “Do I know you?” to which I said, “No, but I hope everything is awesome for you.” She smiled and was more upbeat as we walked away. It took nothing of my time, nor of hers, but maybe it became just a little better. At least I hope it did.
So as the sun sets on another day, you can make a difference, so do it. You can make things a little better for yourself or for someone else, just do it. In the end it is up to you. Make the world a better place, one moment at a time, no matter what.
Sleep sweet, love life, and laugh, smile and love a lot…
