Good morning,
Beautiful.
This morning,
Oh my goodness,
This morning was special.
And I wanted to share it with you,
So I thought I'd drop you a quick postcard.
I am in London,
And this is the last morning that I'll be here.
Upon waking,
I couldn't help but notice the skyline as morning began to break.
What a beautiful sight,
Watching as the sun rose above the landscape here,
And the light puncturing the darkness,
Creating a beautiful palette of colors to start my day.
You know,
It never ceases to amaze me,
The beauty that surrounds me every single day,
If I slow down and take notice.
Do you do that?
And do you slow down enough to take in the beauty that is here everywhere?
And more importantly,
Do you stop long enough to take in the beauty that exists within yourself?
Because you,
My love,
Are the most beautiful of creations that exists.
You are breathtaking,
And not just some of the time,
All of the time,
For the beauty that I'm talking about is the beauty that comes from the inside out.
You sparkle,
Do you realize that?
You absolutely glow,
And it's evident that you are extraordinary.
And as life sometimes gets in the way of remembering or recognizing this within ourselves,
I want to remind you to never dim that glow,
Never cover your light,
Not for any reason.
We are often too scared to truly let our light shine.
I believe that the author Marianne Williamson put it best when she said that our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It's our light,
Not our darkness,
That most frightens us.
I can see your light,
Even when you aren't consciously trying to shine it.
But imagine if you shined with intention.
What if you did those things that light you up?
What if you lived from your heart?
Is that frightening?
It might be,
But what if we try it out anyway?
What if you be you?
And no matter what that looks like,
I promise,
It'll be beautiful,
It'll be amazing,
And it will bless your life as well as those that you surround yourself with.
Now go.
Go about your day and truly be you.
Remember,
No dimming,
For the sun doesn't fade in the presence of anyone.
And you don't need to either.
Live in joy,
For happiness is always meant to be yours.
In the beautiful words of Hafiz,
Ever since happiness heard your name,
It's been running through the streets,
Trying to find you.
Let it catch you.
Have an amazing day,
Sweetie.
No,
Have an amazing life.
We'll talk at you later.
