Guest guest Posted September 4, 2007 Report Share Posted September 4, 2007 Lightworkers In The ShadowsI've always lived in someone's shadow.A lightworker in the shadows, still we have our place in this world.There have been songs written about us..."Wind Beneath My Wings" by Bette Midler"It must have been cold there in my shadow,to never have sunlight on your face.You were content to let me shine, that's your way.You always walked a step behind.So I was the one with all the glory,while you were the one with all the strength.A beautiful face without a name for so long.A beautiful smile to hide the pain.""Because You Loved Me" by Celene Dion"You were always there for meThe tender wind that carried meA light in the dark shining your love into my lifeYou've been my inspirationThrough the lies you were the truthMy world is a better place because of you."Look around, you'll see us everywhere.We're the ones always two steps behind.We're the ones with the twinkle in our eye because the sun is reflecting off our tears.We're the ones with a spring in our step because we're trying to keep up with you.We're the ones with a big smile on our face because to not smile would prove to be...well...so human.We're the ones that hide behind our weight, our scars, labels such as bi-polar, manic depressive, schizophrenic.We're the ones, when we try to step out of the shadows, get yelled at because our "ego" has gotten in the way again. Or so they say...We're the ones that sometimes just don't get it, even though we're just as open to everything you experience.We're the ones that don't feel the energies, don't see the auras, don't talk to dead people.We're the plain ones.We're the normal ones.We're the ones that try to hard.We're the ones that carry on so you can meditate, and go on retreats and sabbaticals.We're the invisible ones.But please don't brush us aside so easily.Can you imagine how lonely your life would be with no one in your shadow?

Guest guest Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 My dear .. Thank you for sharing this beautiful post.. So very true... We are all of the light, and we so often think that a lightworker is something extraordinary.. We all have gifts, and they are all so different from each other, but we share the same light of love. This is working the light (hence the title LIGHTWORKER).This is what we all are.. NO title needed.. Much love to you.. ~Karma --- In , " " <ASundayInJune@...> wrote: > > > [Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket] > <http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vcGhvdG9idWNrZXQuY29t> > > Lightworkers In The Shadows > > I've always lived in someone's shadow. > A lightworker in the shadows, > still we have our place in this world. > > There have been songs written about us... > > " Wind Beneath My Wings " by Bette Midler > > " It must have been cold there in my shadow, > to never have sunlight on your face. > You were content to let me shine, that's your way. > You always walked a step behind. > > So I was the one with all the glory, > while you were the one with all the strength. > A beautiful face without a name for so long. > A beautiful smile to hide the pain.
