Some days, I feel the vastness of the ocean within me, its depths teeming with unexplored emotions and boundless creativity. Other days, I am the ship, navigating life’s currents with purpose and determination. But tonight, I stand as the lighthouse, a solitary beacon at the edge of the world, illuminating the darkness for others while grappling with my own inner storms.

You too, carry within you the capacity for both vastness and direction, for both creation and guidance. Embrace the ebb and flow of your own being. Some days you may feel expansive and full of possibility; others, you may need to focus and chart a steady course. And on those nights when you feel alone, remember that your light can guide others even as you wrestle with your own shadows.

Divine Creator, we ask for your presence in the shifting tides of our lives. Grant us the strength to be both the vast ocean and the sturdy ship. When we feel isolated, like a lighthouse on a lonely shore, remind us that our light matters, even in the darkest of nights. May we always find the courage to embrace our complexities and shine brightly for ourselves and for those who seek our guidance. Amen.
