We don’t need to chase the shadow

Don’t need to wrestle, don’t need to battle
Wherever we go, it will always follow
Go to bed, dream at night, rise up tomorrow
Just let it all go
Let yourself be hollow
Empty every drop out of the bottle
When you let it all go
That’s when you’ll know
Sunlight shine bright, light up the temple

—	Sunlight, on MC Yogi’s album, Pilgrimage

Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

Studio doors flung open, painting en plein air while the kiddos run amuck outside. This painting is my most recent to date. Feeling gratitude for the special stars in my life, beautiful and unique, each drawing light from each other and reflecting that back into the world.
