The sun is a star, a hot ball of glowing gases at the heart of our solar system. Its influence extends far beyond the orbits of distant Neptune and Pluto. Without the sun’s intense energy and heat, there would be no life on Earth. And though it is special to us, there are billions of stars like our sun scattered across the Milky Way galaxy.

This is so true it brought me to my knees and out tears in my eyes. Pray for the world. Use this as inspiration for positive change…this pain that we feel does not have to cripple us but it can empower us to work for a better world. Please pray for the world. Light a candle for healing. Spread your light. Make some magic. Manifest changes. We need more lightworkers.
