This little light of mine…. Im gonna let it shine! Remember this song from your childhood?? Who knew at the time that the lyrics carried such significance? The message…
Beauty comes from within!!
My mother used to always say to me… Meredith, don’t be afraid to be who you truly are, always let your light shine! At the time I just thought it meant to smile a lot and not to be mean to people.
Now that I have a few more years under my belt, coupled with more wisdom. I finally get it!!
Our physical bodies do not solely define a person’s beauty! Yes, a physical body is beautiful but, it’s the light from within that you allow to shine through that is the essence of “true beauty”!
I have seen so many physically beautiful women and men throughout my lifespan who’s looks have in time, faded!
I have also seen many who physically (by society’s standards) may not be considered a “10” but we’re beautiful beyond measure.
We all know what can destroy a persons physical beauty… a few of the obvious culprits being smoking, unhealthy eating, excessive drinking and drugs!
But if true beauty comes from within… How can it disappear like sand through an hourglass??
The top causes on the beauty snatcher list, in my opinion are…
- Bitterness
- Anger
- Guilt
- Lack of forgiveness
- Closed off heart
- Hate
All of these negative emotions are like layers of concrete that block our light and keep us from truly connecting with ourselves, our friends and our families. These negative emotions are like weights that keep us locked down, while stifling our goals, our dreams, and our ability to experience peace, love and happiness!
Forgiveness is the key to opening the door to the abundance the universe has to offer. When you can forgive, you are giving yourself the gift of freedom from all your past hurts.
When you can free yourself, that is when your heart becomes open. When your heart is open so are your possibilities. You become a magnet for all of the beauty and potential this world has to offer.
The more we practice releasing these negative emotions, the stronger we will become. The stronger we become... our possibilities become endless!
