Today's MOZEN: Light the Light Shine. 9/3/2014

Words and photo by F LoBuono

Like an unseen current we are swept away in the daily flow of wake, work, eat, sleep, repeat. That's particularly acute here, in the shadow of, arguably, the world's greatest metropolis and, certainly, the most competitive. The frenetic pace of New York and New Yorkers is legendary. But, how, from time to time, we all need to step off that conveyor belt of mind-numbing boredom. It's easy to forget that the simplest things can provide the relief we seek. We just need open our eyes, our minds, and our hearts to experience them.

A sunrise, no matter where you find yourself, is FREE. Always. Even those who may live under circumstances far less fortunate than mine can find solace in the sunlight. As the light nourishes the flower, let it feed your soul. Remember, the soul is the one thing that can never be taken without your permission. Your body may be enslaved, but never your being.

We must all take the time to nourish our souls with light and love, wherever we may find it.

Like the simple sun flower, turn your face to the sun and be filled again.

It only takes a moment.
