Lesson From A Broken Lamp
This morning, while I was doing some light housework, I was in my bedroom when something triggered the heavy floor lamp to come falling towards my head. Thankfully, I caught it and was unhurt, but the lamp broke in half and was no longer functional. I unplugged it and removed the bulb, but given the weight of the lamp I didn’t feel comfortable yet to move it or dispose of it.
This afternoon, while reading Between Two Minds (Dr. Judith Stay Moore), I was reading through the grieving process chapter and while reading about some of the things on her list of fulfilling things, the thought came to me about the lamp and I was taught a lesson.
While that source of Light worked for me in the past, I have changed from the trauma and need to be seeking new forms of light. The lamp (and the old light) needed to be replaced in my life. As with me spiritually and emotionally, I need to find a new source for my Heavenly Light. Not in the Light itself, but the way I obtain it.
Mind blown.
