Introduction
LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE
Phantoms hide in the shadows, Pharoahs worship the sun.
This site is dedicated to everyone who has managed to find a way to overcome some sort of serious obstacle to their life path.
Too many of us live with phantoms ruling our everyday actions and lives. All of us want to bask in the sun. The reasons we may never achieve this are many and varied.
Events from our formative years may have emotionally affected us so strongly that we live our lives under an emotional cloud.
A serious trauma at any period may have required such a change of lifestyle that we feel unable to surmount the obstacles involved.
No matter what obstacles life throws at you; how they are handled and the effect they have on a your life varies enormously from person to person.
Why do some people shatter while the same thing makes others stronger?
It all seems to boil down to mental attitude. The ability to put a positive spin on events is crucial to moving on from difficult situations. Often it is a serious trauma which enables or forces a person to make a radical change in how they think.
Everybody has the capability of doing this. For some it has been how they have always thought anyway. Others have to struggle to develop it.
This site is all about how people have managed to overcome their particular challenges and been able to find a satisfactory or improved level of happiness and contentment.
The methods and roads people take to do this are not important. What matters is that it has achieved real benefits to the person. This is always a subjective thing, which cannot be easily measured. It is usually only in the recounting of events or personal association that it can be seen to have happened.
Each of us has a different philosophy about life; so what works for one person may not do so for another. This doesn’t negate the original idea. It is a matter of trying different things to find the one that works for you. It is all about developing or maintaining a positive outlook on life.
My personal road to improvement has been through Vipassana Meditation. Any body who has found a way to improve their life, and overcome obstacles, is welcome to share how they did so.
Few problems or obstacles are unique to human experience. Many people are likely to be struggling with the same thing. Sharing how one person has overcome it can be a great inspiration and motivation for someone else.
