"Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in Heaven.

Today I made a plan, a promise in my mind, that I'd begin this very day to let my light so shine.

The early morning dawn revealed my mother's face, reminding me that my own home was my beginning place.

With a happy heart I sang and helped in little ways to bring a ray of loving light into my family's day.

Then out into the world I went with watchful eye. I saw a woman old and bent and could not pass her by.

With gentle voice I spoke, then listened for a while and saw her sad expression change into a grateful smile.

As time went quickly by I said a silent prayer and asked to bring the light of love to someone in despair.

Outside my circle of friends I saw a lonely one, a person often ridiculed and left to walk alone.

With courage I reached out and drew her in with me. The joy I saw will ever be a cherished memory.

As evening time approached I had a chance to share a priceless gift that I hold dear with someone who would care.

In faith I gave a friend the sacred book of life and testified that it contained the purest gospel light.
Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in Heaven."

This song from the Young Women's themes by Janice Kapp Perry  changed my life for the better when I was a teen.  I pictured some girl going around trying to brighten everyone's day and I tried to be that girl.  I don't know how effective my efforts were, but at least it got me to stop thinking about myself so much and focus on other's people needs.  It was great therapy for a bad mood!
