Light Shines Through


At first glance, it looked like a drab, cloudly, grey sunrise. The horizon was filled with thick clouds obscuring any view of the sun actually coming up. Most people would have written it off especially after the amazing sunrises we've been having all week. However, this morning I noticed something different. The sky wasn't completely overcast. Almost, but not completely. There were scallops of openings dragged across the sky. Little holes where the light was clearing pouring through. It looked like a lantern covering.

The light never changes. It's always there. The question is whether there is something blocking the light. And even if there is something big and thick blocking the light, the light can still get through as long as there is an opening. Any opening will do. If you remain open to the truth, if you remain opening to what is happening, if you remain open to reality of your circumstances then the light of who you really are can still get out. The only thing that truly blocks out the light is a total closure. Otherwise, the light will always find a way out.
