..."We are like the sun, which is continuously spreading light and waves into the hearts of many spirits. Many will worship the sun for this endless stream of warmth that emanates from its core essence, but the sun does not seek clinging nor need worship, for ITs purpose is to show us how to spread our own light into the world we create, just as IT does on a daily level. Many of us have forgotten that we are continuous with the universe as a wave is continuous with the sea, and that what we see as a outer star is really only a mirror of our own inner BEing. To BE like the sun is to reflect our true essence without fear or effort, so that those who are lost in the dark can remember the source of their true essence, for as they say, IT is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light. Behind everything we SEE is a light which is brighter then 10,000 stars that continuously unfold, so we should never forget our true core essence by hiding behind shadows, for You ARE a extension of the light of the sun!" ~Alistar Valadez...
