Individuality is your second gift from God, after what?
After the light itself, the energy that makes you and I and everything. Light is used to describe intelligence. Wisdom is pure light; ignorance is darkness – that’s how it is traditionally described.
General MacArthur said, “I am a soldier who did his duty, as God gave him the light to see it”.
Jesus said, “I am the way, and the light”; and “I am the light of the world”.
We talk about shedding light on the subject. We say that someone lights up a room.
We bring our light with us wherever we go, and our light shines on all those around us – that is, our intelligence, our personality, our BE-ing, is like a light in the world. And our individuality keeps each light from the boredom of sameness.
Why individuality? Why is there each separate, individual one of us? Here is one of the mysteries of the ages. And we have the answer in the mirror!
There is a saying that if we all thought the same, there would only need to be one of us. That is your clue to the purpose of our being. To be ourselves, and not a shadow of someone else – not a shadow of our parents, our spouse, or our siblings.
