Calling in the Light
“You are not one you are a thousand. Just light your lantern.” Rumi
Recently when I tune into my soul, I find that all I really want to do is lie in my hammock every morning.
Here I am now, writing to you.
I love lying in my hammock in the mornings.
It’s not so hot. The Georgia heat hasn’t gotten totally out of hand.
I can listen to the birds.
My mind can drift in and out of conscious awareness, even back to sleep if necessary.
I read my book of prayers.
I write in my journal.
There is no one calling on the phone quite just yet.
The sunlight filters through the trees and I feel deeply nurtured.
Sometimes your soul yearns to climb a mountain, to right a wrong, to fulfill a need, to find your life purpose.
And sometimes you yearn just to be in the sunlight.
Yesterday I found myself working with a client in Australia.
“You are a light worker,” I said to him, stating the obvious.
“Just as an athlete who works out very hard might need more calories, you use a lot of light in your work and you need to call in the light for your soul.”
