Guard your light Challenge - This is me
I was challenged by my friend Lya to partake in the #guardyourlight challenge.
I was inspired after I found this pose. So, now it's my turn to challenge some talented artists to be inspired by those words.
If you've been tagged show us how you would, "Guard your light!"
The following I copied from Lya's challenge picture, because I've felt that way so many times over the years. I have a long way to go, but I won't give up.

”You have this way of seeing the Light in others. You have this way of noticing what is beautiful and unique about those around you.
And I just hope you know, the same Light you see within others is shining within you too. You have this way of holding up a mirror to others
and making sure they feel seen, and this is a very valuable thing. But sometimes, that can make you feel a little less seen yourself...
a little less valuable, and less important than everyone else. So in case no one told you lately, it’s okay to turn that mirror around and see you for you,
too. And know that no matter who does or does not notice you, Light is running wild within you. It shows up in your laughter. Your stories. Your presence.
And I am sorry for all the times no one has taken the time to let you know this, in the same way that you have done this for so many others.
I just wanted to remind you this is true: the same Light you see in others is shining within you, too.”
