There are times in your life when you become fortunate enough to meet special people. People who just seem to see life from a different perspective. For whatever reason they have a unique quality that appears so special that it almost cannot be defined; other than to simply say, they posses a “light” about them.
When you meet one of these special people, the feeling is so profound, and such a revelation, that it cannot be ignored or go unnoticed. We simply cannot deny the light in them, because it, in turn, lights our own lives.
They are happy, energetic, positive people that spend their days expressing the world around them in ways other people only wish they could. In writings, in action and in song. But beyond most of these things, these special people express their unique light in the example that they live each and every day.
They shine.
And, in doing so, illuminate OUR lives, to take away some of the darkness we all feel. They give us hope. They keep us driven on the right path. They show is the delight in all things. And, in turn, our lives are much better for it.
Let It Shine
7/29/2011
In this world of cold and dark
I had lost my way
Then at last, I saw your light
And night became the day.
Let it shine . . . on me
Cast the dark away
Let it shine . . . on me
And I will find my way
Each one of us must make a choice
To do what’s wrong or right
To step on those too weak and small
Or step into the light
Let it shine . . . on me
Cast the dark away
Let it shine . . . on me
And I will find my way
Never, ever, are you alone
To bear the weight of that stone
No matter how far from home
And when I’m down and on my own
With nothing left to fight
I’ll raise my hands
Fall to my knees
And bathe within your light!
Let it shine . . . on me
Cast the dark away
Let it shine . . . on me
And I will find my way
