Let Your Light Shine

darkness cannot remain when light appears
the morning sun lights up the darkness of the night
a candle’s flickering flame lights up the darkened room
turn on a light and the dark disappears 

think of the light as your positive belief in yourself 
over coming any wrong negative thinking in your mind

let your smile be your beacon of light 
let it light up your life

give all your power to your light
and any darkness in your life will disappear

its what you think about brings it about

believe you are worthy of your good
