How to be the light and dark times by Decay of naturally Randy K, dot com Media is always flooded with not so great things, but the past few weeks have been particularly heartbreaking sees it. He caught up in everyone's opinions and reporters overdrawn appetising everything, but what does that really do? How does that help anything? Really? What if, instead of perpetuating the drama we offered, something else something that might seem completely unrelated but could actually offer a remedy, and that remedy is simpler than you think be the light. As my dear friend, Aldus Dumbledore said, quote, happiness can be found

the darkest of times. If one remembers to turn on the light end quote and during tat time we have a choice to either keep feeling around in the dark or turn on the light? The somersault, as is happening on Tuesday, which means is the long its day of the year delay. Will traction bring light to the darkest hours of the night. What a wonderful time to counter some of that recurrences with a bit of light. So how to do this, where to begin the specific manifestations of it? really does depend on the situation. Reading the rule knowing the audience so to speak. But here are a few things to consider. No matter the situation ask what is He did say you are at a funeral of a loved one, a family members. I d, manage their children as well as keeping food on the table. He has his hands full You on the other hand, have a moment, no fun game to keep kids busy. So he offered a watch them for a bit worried take over the task. He was trying to

countless looking around and observing what is needed. Be it another helping hand, a simple hug or inappropriate Joe to lay the mood might be just what the doctor ordered. These humble tat, can bring some much needed light to any situation. You social media wisely over the EU, There's have stayed away from talking about the issues on social media. Is that it? care or have things to say, but social media is not the place. Really make a difference and he's not my experience more often than not, it perpetuates the drama and flattered depresses. Everyone is like feeding your brain com the negativity it's good to stay in the no, not shield ourselves from what is going on. But most of what I see more people's responses certainly do not bring light. I would suggest to you

social media and other newsfeeds to a minimum, and if you do post something be very thoughtful and intentional about it, ask, will this bring light or add to the drama and if it as such Roma, ask yourself? If you really want to be a part of that he'll hear own darkness, I would argue that the dark. We see in the world is reflection of our inner darkness. Anger Her violins dominance in judgment, others are ways people are trying to deal with those emotions within themselves. Part of my mission with self CARE is a chip away at healing those inner wounds. When we healers, Elves, we he'll our relationship with the rest of the world we give where we are at all, argue that if you are the one that tends to perpetuate the drama, when you work on that inner darkness, the desire for trauma will diminish the negatives that you hold and are even drawn to will transform

you'll even be more enlightened on how to spread the light, those that need it, the most he'll yourself and the rest of the world will follow this. I truly believe I will end with another lovely quote, and I hope you take the simplicity to heart. The word Needs more light, our lives he'd be lighter with things with expectations. Consider that respond to the world around you and act accordingly quote travel light, live light, spread the light, be the light yogi budget.
