160/365 Don’t let your light go out…

Not sure about this picture, I somehow wanted to depict the fact that we at times are our own worst enemy…we put out our own light. We’ve been given this gift of life and God wants us to live it to the fullest for His glory. And yeah, sometimes life is tough, we end up in a valley and we might feel like giving up, snuffing out whatever life is left and just sitting and let life go by. And go by it does, that’s what I’ve realized, that life goes by very quickly and I don’t want to miss out on one bit of it. Even though at times we are in the valleys of life our light can still shine, often times, it’s in those valleys that we are given the opportunity to let our light shine the brightest and in turn light the way for others who find themselves in similar situations.

 

Here’s a quote to ponder:

“For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin — real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way. Something to be got through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life.” -- Fr. Alfred D'Souza

 

A couple more things about me:

1. I love the quotes and writings of the men of old. I’m a lover of words and deep and meaningful writings.

2. Even though I love words I hated grammar as a kid, I could never get it, I still have a hard time with it. I’m not a very good speller either ;)
