Sometimes the mind fills with clouds.

Old grievances drift through — memories of what was said, what was done, what should have been different.

For a while they seem solid, like the whole sky has turned gray.

But today’s lesson from A Course in Miracles offers a different way of seeing.

It reminds me that grievances are not the truth of my mind.

They are clouds passing across something much brighter.

The light has not disappeared.

It has only been hidden.

When I hold on to resentment or judgment, I cannot see the light in myself or in anyone else.

We all stand together in that shadow.

But the moment I loosen my grip — even a little — the veil begins to thin.

The light was there all along.

Today I remember:

My grievances hide the light of the world in me.

And when they soften, even briefly, the light begins to shine again — for everyone.
