How Living with Purpose Radiates Light in the World
In my books, Heartlight and Merlin Book 9: The Great Tree of Avalon, I explore the idea that we all possess an inner light — a Heartlight if you will — that has the power to guide us through even the darkest of times. Just as the stars light up the night sky, our Heartlight has the potential to brighten the path before us and inspire those around us.
Through the tales of Merlin, dragons, chimewings, light flyers, and more, I’ve sought to celebrate the light of story, poetry, music, and most importantly, the enduring light of love. These stories serve as beacons, guiding us toward understanding our capacity to bring light into the world.
Perhaps the most potent source of light is love. Love for ourselves, those around us, and the world we inhabit. We discover our true purpose through the love we share, the kindness we offer, and the connections we nurture. Love is the glowing flame that fuels our life’s adventures.
As Buddha wisely said, “Make of your life a light.” These words hold profound meaning, inspiring us to shine brightly and make a meaningful impact on the world. But what does it mean to make our lives a light, and how can we achieve this luminous purpose?

Episode 2 Excerpt by T. A. Barron
https://tabarron.com/wp-content/uploads/S2_E2-Light_Audio-Quote.mp3 Living with PurposeThe core of a meaningful life, I believe, lies in living fully and embracing love wholeheartedly. It means always striving to be the best version of ourselves. Seeing your life as a story — and telling that story with all the passion and courage you can! It’s also about leaving a positive mark on the world and making it a better place, even in small and unnoticed ways.
Living with purpose means living fully. It’s about embracing every moment, experience, and connection as an opportunity to make a difference. Just as a candle flame can dispel darkness in even the gloomiest corners, our actions and intentions can bring warmth and light to the lives of others.
As we go about our lives, let’s pause to reflect on the difference we can make in the world. Each act of kindness, every spark of inspiration, and every gesture of love adds to the brightness of our collective experience.
I invite you to embrace Buddha’s wisdom and become a beacon of light in your unique way. Let your purpose be your compass, and always remember that the light you share can touch hearts, ignite minds, and illuminate our world.
As we think about making our lives a light, may we be inspired to live with purpose and spread the warmth of love. Together, we can brighten our own paths and those of everyone sharing this precious gift of life with us.
If you’re hungry for more inspiration on this journey of light, I invite you to tune in to the second episode of Season 2 of Magic & Mountains: “Make of Your Life a Light (My Favorite Quote) – Part I.” Join me as I share passages from my books, explore radiant ideas, and introduce you to magical creatures that inhabit the worlds I’ve created.
