This Little Light of Mine

Dear Friend,

I’ve heard it said “If you’re wondering what it is you’re to do with your life, start walking. Your feet will take you where you need to go. If you want to get there faster, start running.”

As a “seasoned” woman with several successful careers and ventures, I have known my purpose during different seasons of my life. I have also known the feeling of uncertainty. What am I supposed to be doing? Where am I going next?

Early in the cold morning in my bare cabin at the meditation retreat in Thailand, I awoke to a feeling of peace I had never known. I thought “I am always in the right place at the right time. I will know what I need to know when I need to know it. I will say what I need to say when I need to say it. I will be where I need to be when I need to be there.”

In that moment, the stress of uncertainty transformed into the freedom of living a life where I can turn on a dime and go in another direction at any moment. If an opportunity comes my way, I can take it.

My “job” for NOW is simply to let my light shine, to love others unconditionally, and to respond to life in a thoughtful and considerate way. Que Sera, Sera.

Love, Jody
