"Not my type"

 December 26. The hour is that indeterminate stretch between twilight and total darkness, when the light in the room acquires the color of old amber, and the shadows on the corners begin to breathe to the rhythm of my own thoughts. Today someone closes a door that I didn't even know I'd leaned in hope. The words were uttered with that polite, almost surgical precision that leaves no room for hemorrhage but causes a deep, thumping dull pain: "I will never fall in love with you, you're not my type." When you hear this, the first thing that leaves you is not the belief in the other, but the sense of your own wholeness.

I stopped looking for the light. Decided to become it instead

 "I stopped looking for the light. Decided to become it instead." These words speak to a powerful shift in mindset, from one of passive searching to active creation.

When we are searching for something outside of ourselves, whether it be #love, #happiness, #success, or even #enlightenment, we can feel as if we are constantly chasing after something that is just out of reach. We may find ourselves feeling #frustrated, #disappointed, and even #hopeless.

But what if we could turn that search inward, and realize that we have the #power to create the very thing we are seeking? What if we could become the light we have been searching for?

This #shiftinperspective requires a #willingness to take #responsibility for our own lives and our own happiness. It requires us to stop looking for #externalvalidation or #approval and instead to cultivate a deep sense of #selfworth and #selflove.

When we become the #light, we radiate positivity, love, and #compassion. We #inspire others to do the same and create a ripple effect of positivity in the world. By choosing to embody the qualities we wish to see in the world, we become a force for #change and #transformation.

So, if you find yourself feeling lost or searching for something outside of yourself, remember that the light you seek is within you. It is up to you to cultivate it, nurture it, and share it with the world. Choose to become the light and watch as your life and the world around you transforms.
