Rise and give thanks. Concentrate your thoughts and efforts on where you can actually make a positive change in the world. Sometimes the slightest courtesy or smile to a stranger can have a far greater impact than all the grumbling and fear over matters you have no control over. Let it go and with faith, be thankful.

Set Aglow by Jim Crotty on Flickr.

Like one soul reflecting the light of another. Set aglow across the horizon. For a brief moment the light breaks through.

All light is connected and is most beautiful when shining back to the source in praise and thankfulness. Grace.

Cast your treasures back to the sea and watch them return a hundred fold. Hope.
