What Does a Lightworker Do?

A Lightworker helps people feel good; helps people find their way through confusing situations, through emotional upsets, and through conflicts of belief. It is a part-time, when the opportunity arises type of "job."

A Lightworker helps out when it feels right to do so and when he/she feels that assistance is desired.

A Lightworker helps by:

  1. Presenting a smile to a person that seems down.

  2. Presenting alternative points of view and various avenues of approach to assist a person in working out a problem.

  3. Encouraging people of good intention.

  4. Helping people orient more toward the lighter side of life; the side where joy, understanding, peach, and spiritual bliss are to be found.

A Lightworker sometimes puts projects on hold in order to help others.

A Lightworker usually puts more focus on the positive aspects of life situations and less on the negative.

A Lightworker integrates life experiences more with an eye toward how the experience can be useful in helping others than on how to profit personally.

A Lightworker does all these things because it feels good to do it; because it feels right and because it brings with it a certain satisfaction.

A Lightworker enjoys life.

Now, Lightworkers do not go around trying to find things to fix. They know intuitively that focusing on things that need fixing creates more things that need fixing.

Lightworkers constantly provide examples of how things can be by how they live their lives. This is one of their most effective ways of helping.

Other than being personal examples of positive life options, Lightworkers generally help only when someone requests it. (A Lightworker might present the idea that help is available if desired, when it seems that such help would benefit the person.)

Some Lightworkers find their path more with assisting groups, or forming and leading groups. However, regardless of the path, they will find opportunities to assist individuals from time to time.

The Lightworker's work, as seen from the Lightworker's point of view, is not work at all. Nor is it an obligation. It is a pleasure; and there is a deep and satisfying excitement associated with it.

Lightworkers tend to be happiest when they are free to assist others in any manner they deem is effective. Therefore, attempts to codify or regulate how Lightworkers conduct themselves tend to be met with resistance.
