Shall I Become a Lighthouse?
May I become an island for those seeking dry land
A lamp for those needing light,
A place of rest for those who desire one,
And a servant for those needing service.– Shantideva
And may I become a lighthouse when need be

Before we can be that beacon of light, that place of solace for another,
we must first have found our way out of darkness and into wholeness.
Well, certainly there are many who purport themselves to lighthouses. Yet their beacons can lead followers to the rocks. 😦
How very true. Know to whom we are speaking before we bare even a
part of our soul, let alone our heart.
Amen to that!
