There are days when a sunrise or the moments before the sun sets can make the world appear extraordinary beautiful. Light reflects off an oak tree, a lake, the face of someone we love.
There is a lovely phrase “in the best light.” It usually means to see something or someone from a positive perspective.
What if we saw ourselves “in the best light” instead of reviewing our mistakes and shortcomings; instead of discounting our potential and possibilities?
What if we saw ourselves as the oak tree, lake, or someone we love embraced by the best light?
How would we feel about ourselves? Any differently?
