We have a rule in the House of Clarity. Everyone who is under our roof gets spoiled. We recognize that being spoiled is defined as being overindulged, and is widely viewed as a negative. We use that phrase as an exaggeration to make a point that we want to do all we can as a family to see that everyone lives lights-on in the House of Clarity.
This means that each of us has two primary energetic jobs: Job #1 is to be responsible and accountable to keep our own lights on; be consciously thoughtful of our own energy and do what we need to do to be fully energized each day. Additionally, Job #2 is to make sure we are thoughtfully aware of creating the space for each person in our family to also have what energizes them each day. Although staying lights-on is their job not ours, we need to be mindful of supporting their lights.
Just shower the people you love with love
Show them the way that you feel
Things are gonna work out fine if you only will
Shower the people you love with love
Show them the way you feel
Things are gonna be much better if you only will
James Taylor
The most effective way to shower the people you love with love is to live every day thinking, doing and being lights-on. When you are fully enlivened, you have the capacity to give your room-mates, partners, co-workers the space and encouragement to live every day lights-on.
