EP160 - There is Always Light

WEBVTT 1 00:00:07.230 --> 00:00:13.550 Good Day, my friend. Welcome to a moment with modes. Thank you 2 00:00:13.830 --> 00:00:19.750 so much for downloading a show. I sure do feel boosted by your download 3 00:00:19.789 --> 00:00:24.899 or your stream. Thank you so much for being here. Hope you have 4 00:00:25.260 --> 00:00:30.739 great plans for the weekend. You know, I don't know if it's me, 5 00:00:30.820 --> 00:00:36.090 or or maybe it's the Mrna that's running through my veins, but I'm 6 00:00:36.090 --> 00:00:41.530 feeling pretty chepper today. As as you may a guest, I got boosted 7 00:00:41.649 --> 00:00:50.719 today and currently I am feeling fine. Amanda Gorman joins the show today and 8 00:00:51.079 --> 00:00:57.920 from her poem, the Hill we climb, there is always light, if 9 00:00:58.159 --> 00:01:03.280 only we're brave enough to see it, if only we're brave enough to be 10 00:01:03.469 --> 00:01:08.510 it. I don't have to tell you that we live in a world where 11 00:01:08.590 --> 00:01:15.269 many people will try and keep our light from shining, but we can't let 12 00:01:15.390 --> 00:01:25.739 that stop our brilliance. It can be scary being seen. It's much easier 13 00:01:26.700 --> 00:01:32.540 to dim our light and to keep it to ourselves so that no one notices. 14 00:01:33.930 --> 00:01:38.810 We have to be brave to let our light shine in the darkness. 15 00:01:38.890 --> 00:01:46.250 A white in the darkness can be easy to see, and that's scary because 16 00:01:46.290 --> 00:01:53.480 we know that not everything we attract wants us to succeed. There are people 17 00:01:53.959 --> 00:02:01.349 that are going to try and drag you down because they don't understand what it 18 00:02:01.469 --> 00:02:08.430 is that you are dreaming about, they don't understand why you have to do 19 00:02:08.629 --> 00:02:14.870 what you do and they're just afraid, and so they feel more comfortable if 20 00:02:14.949 --> 00:02:20.500 you dim your light too. So we can be scary, to stand out. 21 00:02:21.379 --> 00:02:27.340 But, my friend, that's what bravery is, feeling a braid and 22 00:02:27.580 --> 00:02:32.969 taking action anyway. When you let your light shine, we'll see it too, 23 00:02:34.969 --> 00:02:39.330 and your light can be the spark for a thousand more lights, or 24 00:02:39.449 --> 00:02:46.919 even just one more light. That's enough to keep the light growing and keep 25 00:02:46.960 --> 00:02:54.400 the light shining. Right now, the world needs us to shine our lights. 26 00:02:55.840 --> 00:03:00.389 It's only the light that can hold the darkness at bay, my bread 27 00:03:01.349 --> 00:03:07.789 and you are the light. When you shine your light, I'll see it 28 00:03:07.229 --> 00:03:10.870 and I know then then I can shine my light and will part our lights 29 00:03:10.990 --> 00:03:16.979 together, and soon enough there'll be enough of us that none of those people 30 00:03:16.979 --> 00:03:24.580 who want us to dim our lights are gonna matter. A great weekend carpet 31 00:03:24.699 --> 00:03:28.930 momentum. I'll talk to you in a couple of days.
