This enchanting tale is actually the format for the journey many souls awaken to in a lifetime. The framework of this story is using the idea of a lighthouse that is set upon a rock in the middle of the ocean. It's job or duty is simply to 'Be What It Is' and share Its beam of Light into the darkness. In so doing the boats that sail into this region will be saved from a catastrophe by running into submerged rocks as they are shown The Way to home and harbor. As humans born into this worldliness or ocean of samsara we begin our journey as beautiful, pure beings finding ourselves, at times, falling victim to various states of mind and feelings...losing our way.

We disconnect from a true sense of value, worth, meaning or purpose from what we are and why we are here in this lifetime. Lighthouse started its journey as a beautiful, purposeful lighthouse but over time became bored, sad, fearful and self-pitying by not 'remembering' the ultimate reason for its life and purpose. As in many stories we always love the 'hero' walking into the moment and rescuing the 'fallen angel', so to speak. In our lives when we come up to the end of our human understanding looking for solutions everywhere outside we finally give up, let go and/or surrender.
