There is a light within you. It`s a light that only you have and is 100% yours. Nobody has ever had this light of yours, or the color of it, and nobody will ever have it.
Why?
Because you were born with it and nobody can ever take it, steal it, borrow it or copy it from you. No. That can never happen. The reason is simple: your light is unique and the Creator blessed you with it so that you can have your own mark of originality. I dare say that our Creator never wanted small copies as His children.
How could He want such a thing when he himself is a living proof of his endless originality?
Under these circumstances, you think He would want for his children to look alike, think and feel the same? Do the same things/activities, enjoy the same things, have the same ideas and so on…? My best guess is that the answer is no.
No, He never wanted these things for his creation, nor did he ever require it from them. Pretty healthy, logical and normal thinking, isn`t it?:-)
And how could it be otherwise when everything around us is touched by uniqueness?
Therefore, I imagine our Creator, sitting on his chair ( if he has one; maybe he likes sitting on the grass, instead?:D), and saying to himself:
I am original. Everything I have ever created on this planet is original. Hence, I do not want multiple faces of the same thing/person. No, not at all. I want original things/persons/skills/aptitudes/talents. So, it is my wish that every human being and soul should have something of its own, something that differences them from the rest of the people; something like a light among other lights. Yes, this is what I want and will do
.
And thus, the Creator blessed every soul with qualities and talents that only that soul has.
We may enjoy the same things, we may do the same things( such as singing, writing, sculpting, engineering and so on) but we do not sing in the same way; we do not write, design, sketch, draw etc…in the same way, you follow me?:)
And believe me, this is the great part!:)
So, the way I see it is that we all are made out of the same divine essence; we all are these amazing, magnificent, unlimited beings who have come on Earth to explore and experience life. This is clear as day light.
The only thing that places “a difference” between us is how we do things & what we enjoy doing.
I often like to refer to the tree analogy. See, a tree has a root- a root through which it takes from the soil the minerals and nutrients it needs in order to grow tall and strong, right? This tree has many, many branches and leafs. The leafs are so many that it would be hard for us to count, but do you think that those leafs are all the same? Yes, they have the same shape and size but even so- they are unique and possess an absolute individuality. Isn`t this marvelous?:)
The other wonderful thing is that the tree wouldn`t be complete without all its leafs:) Yes, they fall when autumn comes but this happens after they “shone their light”, meaning they served the tree and now they are free to go.
I really do hope I have not lost you so far with so many words..:P Things are pretty simple, my dear friend:)
It`s really up to you to see and understand what I am writing here:) At any case, please take your time:) I don`t want you to rush:)
We have plenty of time ahead of us, and I am not going anywhere:)
Going back to our blog post, the point I am trying to convey is that the world needs you, my friend, just as the tree needs its leafs.
This whole world – just as we know it – wouldn`t be the same without you to shine your light upon it, as this makes all the difference and frankly – it is the very purpose and mission you were born to accomplish.
Of course, nobody is waiting around the corner to judge your or force you in anything – no, it wouldn`t be possible. Our Creator gave us free will. This means we are free to choose whether we`ll shine our light or not. But I do have a question to ask you, my friend:)
If you came here, if you faced all the trouble to come into this physical realm to experience life, wouldn`t it be a lost and waste to have made this journey and not share your special talents & light with the rest of the people? Every person has their “own light color” and this means that the more people shine their light, the more colors in our world to see!:)
Isn`t it great? Can you imagine how colorful our world would be?:)
Only one favor to ask you, my fellow human being: shine your light. I am curious and excited to see it:) Please don`t keep me waiting…:)
Much love,
Cristina
Cristina, You continue to share important ideas in creative and wondrous ways. I particularly liked your connection of our individuality coming from God as the leaves form from the tree’s root. Very good comparison. :O) I’ll be thinking of your words for a long time. Thank you.
Love,
Doug
Hey, Doug:)) Happy to hear you liked the analogy with the tree, my friend:)) It is really how I think and feel about our connection with God, and how we, as humans, are also linked one to another:))
Share the post with your dear ones, Doug:)) The more people read it, the more people will come to realize this universal truth, and since this will happen- the more awareness will be in our world:)) The result? A better, loving, harmonious world:))
Stay happy, my friend, and keep writing:)))
Much love,
Cristina
