Answer this very important question @NNP_W_Light




When you wake up in the morning complete the following statement, “My purpose is to… today”.

Everyone has a purpose.  I have a purpose.  You have a purpose.  The person down the street has a purpose.

Read the quote above and complete the statement:

My purpose is to...

Don't know how to answer it?  Here are a few suggestions:

-spread the Light

-love unconditionally

-be kind

-encourage others

-pray for the world

-volunteer somewhere

-donate food, clothing, time to a local food bank/pantry

-smile brightly

-write a book

-start a blog

-start an online petition about a cause you believe in

No matter what your purpose is, get going.

You have the power! @NNP_W_Light


But even with the inspiration of others, it's understandable that we sometimes think the world's problems are so big that we can do little to help. On our own, we cannot end wars or wipe out injustice, but the cumulative impact of thousands of small acts of goodness can be bigger than we imagine. ~ Queen Elizabeth II

Did you know you have the power to change the world?

I'm a big believer in the impact of several small acts of kindness and how, when millions of people come together for a cause, great things happens. I've been witness to a multitude of world-changing events. I've seen first-hand how one person's idea for change can grow to a movement. 

When we first started the POTL blog back in 2014, it was just MR N and myself sharing our vision of what the world would look like if everyone spread the Light and showed compassion to those in need. It blossomed into a movement. Five years later, there are millions of people spreading the Light and asking others to do the same. I'm too humble to take credit for this change but I'm thrilled to be a part of it.

There will be people who will scoff at your idea or your actions. They'll try to put you down saying you don't have the power to make change. Don't listen to them! They're afraid of your power and will do/say anything to squash you. Don't let them steal your power. Instead, combine your efforts with others to make real change.

What are you going to do today to change the world? 

You have the power. All you have to do is harness it.

Share your support for causes. . . by @NNP_W_Light


Share your support for things that matter to you. ~ N. N. Light

In the digital age, it's easier than ever to show your support to the causes which matter to you. Social media gives every single person a voice.

Are you using your voice to show support for what matters to you?

There are alot of causes I support but one of the most important is the care and feeding of those in need. Men, women and children right in my neighbourhood don't have enough to eat. They're struggling to make ends meet and often need the help of food banks/pantries to survive. Now politicians want to take away the funding to line their own pockets or in my province's case, to have beer available for sale in corner stores.

We show our support for the homeless and those in need every chance we get. We talk about the need to donate food, clothing, money and time. We share our experiences with our own food bank and how we give so that little children in our neighbourhood have food to eat. We even wrote Princess of the Light to shed light on the plight of the homeless.

We also believe in equality for all, especially when it comes to love. June is Pride month and we up our support of the lgbtq+ community. Love is love, no matter who you love. No one has the right to mock who you love or care about.

Are you giving voice to your beliefs or are you scared?

I'm not here to force you to go out into the streets and scream what matters to you. What I am saying is it's time to share your support for causes you deem important. Sure, people will dismiss you and some may ever call you names. Don't let it silence your voice. When we band together, our voices boom across the land and create change.
