Be Your Own Light ✨
Late at night, Sarah sat in her small apartment, staring at the dim glow of her bedside lamp. Life had been tough lately lost friendships, career struggles, and an overwhelming sense of loneliness. She kept waiting for someone to pull her out of the darkness, for someone to remind her of her worth.
But no one came.
One evening, as she walked home through the city streets, she noticed something—a tiny flower growing through a crack in the sidewalk, standing tall despite the odds. It didn’t wait for the perfect conditions. It didn’t rely on anyone to water it. It simply grew.
That night, Sarah made a decision. She stopped waiting. She stopped depending on external validation. She picked up a journal and wrote down her dreams, even the ones she had abandoned. She enrolled in an online class, took evening walks to clear her mind, and started showing herself the love she had been searching for in others.
Days turned into weeks, and slowly, she became her own light. The pain didn’t disappear overnight, but she no longer sat in the darkness, waiting for someone to turn the light on for her. She realized she had that power all along.
And so do you.
If you’re feeling lost, if you’re waiting for someone to save you—stop. Be your own light. Take one small step today. Do something that makes you feel alive. Water your own soul. Because once you shine from within, the world will reflect that light right back at you.
