Take a close look at each individual firework this weekend.
They all start off, just laying there among the others. Then one of them is chosen. Someone, something lights a fire under them; igniting something inside them. This gives them the courage and a reason to soar through the darkness and explode with excitement.
They reach across the sky, spreading their light, their message, to an audience left in awe.
We all have an opportunity to leave our box and to be one of those twinkling lights in the sky that people look up to, even if it’s just for for a brief moment.
When given the chance, Shine Brightly! There are so many people out there that want to hear you and need to see you!
Happy Independence Day!
