Shine Bright!

This is it: December 21, 2012. Will the world end today? I don't think so.

Yet, today is a good day to focus on shining our brightest!

Today is the Winter Solstice (or Summer Solstice for those in the southern hemisphere). It's the day the sun reaches the furthest point and begins a journey back (at least from our perspective on Earth). It is a good day to make a change, for the better.

Here are a few of my past tweets that share that concept:

• On darkest day of the year, may we learn as light returns slow, the Light within us must continue to grow.
• On this winter solstice, remember that darkness, no matter how great, will be replaced with Light, that's never been a mistake. 
• Sunrise early on this long day gives me ample time to play and pray. 
• On summer solstice, may God’s Light brighten our lights within to face the darkening days ahead. 
• May the light of this longest day never be forgot. As the days shorten, hold on to the Light in your heart.

 Someone we know has also been sharing a grand idea. If today is the mark of the beginning of a new era of mankind, what we do today may set the precedent for the next period. We can point out all the "evils" of this world, share the bad news, look with fear or hatred on each other, and ... get much of the same.

Or we can focus on sharing the Love and Light that is within us. We can focus on finding the stories of all the kindness, goodness, love and forgiveness happening around us, helping others shine, not just bragging about our own accomplishments. We can also do something big on this day that involves Kindness, Compassion, or Love to kick-start the period in the right direction.

While the news continues to report sad events and tragedy, we should do our best to share stories of goodness that exists in this world.

This is the Season of Emanuel ~ God is with us. Let our focus - our light - spotlight where God is working in the world today, and let it shine for all!

Which would we like to see for the new era?

Which should we focus on now?

And every day of our life?
