Hello light workers,

Did you know the beautiful lotus flower only grows in muddy water?

Even surrounded by murky conditions, it rises, strong, vibrant, and untouched by the mud beneath it.

Here we are, already in mid-July.

Time feels like it’s speeding up, doesn’t it?

Life is moving quickly, and sometimes it feels like everything is happening all at once.

Lately, I’ve found myself deep in reflection and meditation.

When I step outside, whether it’s a trip to the supermarket or a walk down the street I can sense the stress and fear in the air.

Can you feel it too?

It can feel overwhelming for some

I often come home feeling emotionally drained. That’s when I know I need to realign with my self, my peace, my strength, my Light work..

But here’s the truth we sometimes forget:

We are survivors.

We are stronger than we think.

And we are doing the best we can.

Take a moment right now and think about everything you’ve been through.

Everything you’ve overcome. Every obstacle that tried to break you but didn’t.

You’ve made it this far, and that’s something to be incredibly proud of.

Just look at you! Look at the life you’ve created.

The strength you’ve discovered. The wisdom you now have.

You are proof that resilience, self-worth, and emotional healing are possible, even in hard times.

And guess what?

You can do it again.

You can keep moving forward.

You can rise even higher.

Yes, life can be uncertain. There are things beyond our control. But we can control our thoughts, our responses, and the energy we bring into the world.

I choose peace. I choose love. I choose gratitude. I choose healthier habits and empowering beliefs.

Can you imagine how much better this world would be if more people made those choices every day?

We all have our own way of spreading light. What's yours?

Ask yourself:

What have I survived that made me stronger?

What daily thoughts and habits lift me up?

What kind of future am I creating with my energy today?

These are powerful questions. The answers can remind you just how far you’ve come.

Personally, I’ve overcome a lot,.....suppression, divorce, alcohol abuse, homelessness, grief, financial struggle, heartbreak, childbirth, public speaking fears, and deep emotional pain. The list goes on....

And yet...I’m still here.

You are still here.

Maybe you’ve experienced similar challenges—or even harder ones. But know this:

You are a resilient warrior.

You are worthy of joy, love, and success.

Brighter days are ahead.

Hold on. Be patient. The light is closer.

Just like the lotus flower, you can rise from the mud.

You can bloom even when the world feels heavy.

So hold on to the love in your heart.

Keep your head high.

Share your light generously.
