Be the light.
A friend sent me this message upon the death of Baba Ram Dass and it’s so wise I just had to share with you:
“So, Ram Dass passes on the first night of Hanukkah, reminding us of the Shamash , the “helper or attendant “ the one that is lit for others. His passing reminds us that we too, are called to be the light that first shines for others to see and then helps them to be their own light, and in turn, will shine for others…”
And that is the truth. We are here to find the light…be our own light..and light the path for others so that they, too can be their own light. That is what we are meant to do here.
How can you be the light for others you encounter in this new year?

We all have the light within us if we let it shine.
Truth. It is the absolute truth.
Such a timely reminder thank you.
Yes, for me, too!
He was such a smart man and so interesting he died on the first night of Hanukkah. There’s so much we don’t know.
Now, on the other side, he knows it all!
I didn’t realize that he died on the first night of Hanukkah. How fitting for the man who was the light for so many. And now it feels like that path that we are walking each other home on is lit up just a little bit more.
