Shine brightly

Envy and jealousy are two feelings that cause the most unrest in us imperfect beings. They are the root cause of hurt done unto one self and done unto others.

Many times in my life I've dimmed my soul's light because others didn't like how bright it shone. I permitted their envy and jealousy to influence the amount of light I allowed myself for my life's journey. 

The "disease to please" others was by choice and I forced myself to be other than who I actually was for their benefit. This was causing my life's purpose to have a slow death.

When I decided to shine as brightly as I knew I was supposed to, those that genuinely cared about me stuck around, and those that preferred my dimness left. 

Go ahead and let your soul shine as brightly as you KNOW it is meant to! If you don't shine, the envy and jealousy that you feel from others, or towards others, will cause you to feel nothing but regret. Shine as brightly as you can sweet being! <3
