Let Light Shine

The Sun Will Always Shine. Let It In!

I am learning how to publish a website, edit the website, publish the podcast to a website, maneuver the podcast website, and all while keeping my sanity!

I don’t think three years ago I would’ve imagined this peace of my journey, but this is what I’m doing. I’m actually sitting in a restaurant having brunch, working-on my iPad. I find that when I get out of my home, to do “work’, I get more done. I actually already did a blog post yesterday and realized after it was done, that I hated it. So, here I am, starting over. Being critical and yet wanting to be authentic. Starting over and being authentic are cornerstones in the present moment for me.

I won’t drone on; on this blog post on, but I will redirect you over to TikTok (@thisgirlnamedgrace) or IG (@thisgirlnamedgrace_llc). Maybe even Facebook (This Girl Named Grace), but we will see. (Should you feel so inclined to go look at the video that I will post.)

Let’s talk about this video though, for a moment- Let me enlighten you on the moment that I took this video. I was in my new rental home-going through a divorce, night two of living there by myself. I had no furniture. I had a twin mattress on the floor that I was sleeping on. I decided to turn on my camera and just video my home. It was probably, I don’t know, 9 or 10 o’clock at night.

When I turned on my camera, I had no idea what I would not only see with my naked eye, but what I was recording, in my home, in the moment. It turned into a literal disco ball of orbs!! I don’t know if any of you have ever seen them with your naked eye, or on video? I have and often. I will say this, I believe in angels. I believe in a higher power than ourselves. I believe 100% in divine timing and divine intervention.

The reason and motivation for posting that video today is mostly because I had a friend who has experienced extreme loss recently. I felt by reminding myself and her, that our light never dims-whether we’re in human or in our spiritual, ethereal form. We’re here to help each other on a daily basis, to get through difficult times. In communicating with her. I was reminded how much she helped me through the worst time of my life, and I was hopeful I could give her a little light back today.

I’ll also share the video podcast somehow that I recorded this morning. It’s all a collective message that encapsulates my weekend! (Sidebar - the video is from May 2021) I was reminded that the sun always shines light! I send anyone struggling with seeking light, prayers today. Prayers for Faith and the constitution to stay in Faith and seek strength from others when yours is waning. (As I am ending this blog post, I’m hearing the song. Don’t worry be happy!)

Consider Grace for yourself today! It’s ok to know you deserve it and lean in to interdependency!

Much love,

Grace

I’ll leave that here for today.
