38 years of living and I am realizing that I am light. Finally letting go of so much hurt and pain. That there is nothing wrong with me and I am good enough 😭❤
yes boo, and you always have been.. the light was separated frm the dark, and it was good in HIS sight.. dnt let anyone drag you into those dark places ever again😗
I find myself drawn to the comment sections of meditations and songs like this, i spend alot of time reading comments. Such a beautiful place to be among my brothers an sisters all sharing the same journey. 🙏❤️
teezah24 It genuinely made me smile that a stranger on RU-vid inquired about me. Thank you 😊 But I've discovered meditation and my own connection with the metaphysical and nature and everything. I'm really good now. Thank you again.
Its no problem at all! We as people need to support and uplift one another. I have been doing a lot more journaling and praying. That has been helping me out a lot. May you continue to find peace on your journey!:)
True just remember she is spiritually awake and enlightened. Her 3rd eye is open. She knows she is a spiritual being having a human experience. She is of higher consciousness.
This song speaks to my soul. Im 37 and have not made the best decisions in my life...but this song delivers me from so much self hate and reminds me that I am somebody... My past does not define me
Playing this song for my mother rn, she overdosed a few months ago and is now in a hospice, I don’t want her to feel she was never loved or I’m disappointed in her for the few days she may have left. I love this song so much, this is a new journey for me only being in my 20s but I know GOD will be there every step of the way. God bless y’all 🤍
I hope you are in a good place and safe & well now. What you went through is extremely tough but things will get better even with the hurt. And you can live with the peace knowing you gave her something money can’t buy. Wishing you all the blessings 💛
I am light. I am not the things my family did! Coming from a line of brokenness and TRAMUA they built and never worked to heal! I am light. Divinity within. I am here to conquer all my fears. To everyone on here saying this song saved your life, thank you for bravery I commend you all for being brave to share that it takes a special type of person to share their story. Love and light to you all. I am light and I have to carry on as such. 🤞🏽🧘🏽♂️💙
This song has saved me so many times. As a new mom I felt like I was drowning and couldn't find myself. I suffer from chronic pain as well and the whole ordeal had me contemplating the worst. Thank you India, and thank you liked minded souls in the comments for sharing your stories. 💕
I recently started doing yoga and meditating more frequently, trying to work out some internal issues, and I find myself saying I am light in those quiet moments. This song came up in my recommendations, and I can't express how clear things are becoming and how hopeful this has made me. The yoga poses in here and how they flow with the lyrics is so beautiful. To anyone reading this, the light in me honors the light in you!
Tears roll, when our 3 year old daughter, sees this vid pop up on RU-vid, she selects it, and BEAUTIFULLY sings crystal clearly, “I am light, I am light!” 😭😍💝💕🎉 I didn’t know she knew this song as I play it most in solitude when meditating, or having a self care private party. They pick up more that we can truly realise! #theyarewatching #givethemsomethinggreattonurturetheirgrow #iloveherwithmywholebeing
I love this song. I know she's talking about feeling spiritually enlightened but humans are literally light too (specifically bioluminescent) Even though we can't see it, it's there. We're all glowing. That's just nice to think about.
Heard this song while watching Beyond The Lights and i had to Google the full song and listen it. Because for real though, I AM LIGHT!!! This song is powerful, brought tears to my eyes because of the truth in it!
Just found this song while looking for another India.Irie song. My name Elaine means light so this song speaks deeply to me. Thank you God for putting it in my path. Thank you India.Irie for being the vessel. God bless you.
This song, will be my children's lullaby. Even when they get older. My father always played your music for me when I was heart broken, and my mother played your music to uplift me for my school mornings before I got bullied. So inspiring. You are light 💓🐺🦁💙 We are not the things our family did, or the broken pieces inside. We are not the mistakes we made. We are light. Everything is happening for you, not to you. Reclaim your light✝️ Anpu and Sekh💋🙏🏾🥰 God is light in us, and we share the light with the broken hearted in the world
people be asking me if I'm depressed or something, when I listen to those types of songs... but that's just the type of music I like, no trap and more of this please! very deep, thank you India Arie!!
Bless Leslie lol how crazy ppl ask if you're depressed. This is the type of message we should be letting in at all times! Joyous, sad, bored, depressed, elated.
I live with depression and the last few weeks have had me just barely holding on. This song came recommended by Dr. Dwayne Dyer whom recently passed away. I have never had a song touch me in all the aching places in my heart mind and body. Thank you India Arie for such a life saving and affirming song.
+Heather Johnson you are light :) all light has periods of darkness… ebb and flow. Go Heather! Get it all together girl! LOVE and healing energy to you :)
+Heather Johnson Hey Heather, thank you for surviving through your darkness. With God's help the impossible is always made possible. #Usurvivedfriend #WithLove #Me
On my journey of self healing I came across this song . I'm so glad I did. This song is so beautiful it does something to my soul. Peace love and light✨✨✨
My close friend passed away at the weekend and I dedicate this beautiful song to her in my head. She had the toughest upbringing and then health battles but always remained kind, brave and fun loving. Miss you my gorgeous soul sister- you are now eternal light 🙏❤💫
After struggling after a bad break up after 4 1/2 years and struggling with my bipolar and depression, this song spoke to me on some many different levels. It helped me let go of pain from things I've held onto since I was younger about my (drug addict dad) and all of the pain i've held in for so long.. I am not all of those things. I am not my father's mistakes. I am not the broken home that I come from. I am not the fuck ups that my family has made. I am not the things that everyone has called me, bullying me while growing up. I am NONE of that.. I AM LIGHT
I (58) listen to this special video together with Violante (4 years old), Tosca (3) and Dante (1).... And.... I' m not my age when I listen to this marvellous pièce of soul music ✨ Thank you from all of us🌎
She is light because she helps women feel they too are light... I found this song when I really needed it and I am so Thankful for her and her music. ❤
She just explained what I believed for all of my life. I knew without knowing how I knew. I just did. The knowing was more of a feeling inside than a thought.
This is the exact same thing that I did for that reason. I even had them singing the corse, so when they need to remember, that line will pop into their minds.
I needed to hear this!!! “I am not the things my family did.” I’m trying to finally heal from the things my family did. Just hearing that I’m not those things is the first time I believed it. Thank you for helping me heal ❤
I am light! And all the stages of toxicity, it me breaking out ! I am not a hostage to the past! I am an unconditional lover! I am the messenger of faith and prosperity! Thank you to the people who are not able to feel their way towards the light! I look forward, I deserve happiness and unlimited abundance, my cosmic bank account is overflowing! I am light! So are you! Thank you India Arie for waking my soul up! ❤
I finally understand what this song truly means. I'm 25 in 2 days and I wholeheartedly believe that the next 25 years will be nothing but light for me. I am prosperity. My music will be light. I have the power to do everything I desire. I am light. Thank you God for everything. Thank you universe for showing me who I am. -soulhoney
I am living and not just existing! I am light! I am love! I am Eberechukwu’s widow, but also I am Terry’s fiancé! I am healed! I am a mom! I am a spiritual being living a human experience! But most of all, I am ME!
They fittingly played this today at a memorial service for a friend as they did the "last call" over the forest ranger radio. Tears fell like rain for many of us. I have a new favorite song. Absolutely beautiful. I had never heard this prior. Whenever I am down, I will add this to my playlist. ❤
Earlier today I was listening to a video by Dr. Wayne Dyer and he mentioned this song. I really like it, it truly spoke to a deep place within me. I've heard many teachers say the same thing about us, "We are Light." We are definitely more than flesh and blood.
Thank You @India Arie - this song is the words and sounds of my deepest heart mantra and belief. I heard it first, being held in the arms of two women I'd just met, during a womens' workshop for healing trauma and for accessing our inherent power. I was completely allowed to surrender and cry and be seen, and this was the perfect song to play meanwhile
Akanksha Agarwal. Music has no borders, nobody owns music & this is not a copy it is Inspiration! (Inspiration. Middle English (in the sense divine guidance): via Old French from late Latin inspiratio(n-), from the verb inspirare breathe or blow into from in- into + spirare breathe). And by the way you miss the message, the TRUTH, this song conveys completely, trying to claim ownership to something that belongs to the whole world, really... OM TAT SAT OM
I try to put this song on when I feel my anxiety acting up, or before an attack takes over. Even just to remind myself to breathe while I'm feeling anxious, this song makes all the difference. I'm so thankful for it.
Learning this song alone is a form of forgiveness and redemption. I sing it as an affirmation intentionally when I feel myself starting to to judge myself for something I deem as a learning pattern from someone I have learned from a familiar person. I can change at any time when I live in the moment and remember the good of this message & apply it to the now like a prayer to the now. Bless this message to infinity ❣️🌻✨
I LOVE me some Mz. India!! Your music speaks to my heart..my joints..my spirit..my hair..my soul..my life..my melanin..my dance..my joy..my pain..my name. #KnowThis
Thank you so much Indie! I needed to hear this song a pivtol moment in my life. You are true uplifting and healing Soul! Much Respect, Blessings, and Love to You!!! 🌹 💜🙏💜🌸
This song has helped me through my dark place in high school going through deep depression and self harm and thoughts of suicide and attempts. This song and my older sister both through out stages through ife. Love this song so much
When all seems dark and impossible I turn to God and India.Arie's ''I am light". For a song to make my heart lighter is beyond me. Love this song, love the lightness it gives my heart.
I thank The Lord Jesus Christ the Son of God for dying for the sins of humanity and by the power of Holy Spirit raised Him on the third day giving all who believe and trust in Him to be born again of the spirit and receive the gift of eternal life. To be called the children of God. Children of the light , children of the Day. Glory be to God! Hallelujah❤
That is bar none the most beautiful song I have ever heard. It was playing during my hot yoga class a few days ago and I thought I would faint from the beauty of it. That's not the heat talking!! It was breathtaking. And so true. The pure truth and nothing but! Love it, love Indie. Keep that up girl. You are a divine messenger.
Ive been listening to India since I am not my hair and so far I haven't been disappointed, I was 14 now I'm about to be 31 and it has been amazing being a part of the generation that gets to have India Arie 💛
My church uses "I Am Light" and "Give Thanks" during meditation. I knew as soon as I heard these songs exactly who was singing. Beautiful unmistakable voice.
Thank you! A Course in Miracles Lesson 91 Miracles are seen in light. 92 Miracles are seen in light, and light and strength are one. 93 Light and joy and peace abide in me. THANK YOU for singing the soundtrack to my soul.
choose to see this song on both ways - I am light. It could be a dialogue between our heavenly father and the broken earthling. There is so much beauty in this song which makes me doubt that india's intention was to think of herself superior than God - she clearly states that she is God on the inside - therefore the light of God resides within #praisinGOD 💛
Thank you from the bottom of my heart...I am light. I am divinity defined. I am the God on the inside, I am all light. May the infinite love and light of the creator open the hearts/mind of humanity to remember the truth and magnificence of who we are. How we all are Devine beings of love & light. light workers unite!
I love this song. You are truly an amazing woman every time I hear your music or listen to you speak I feel your energy and that you are coming for a place that is so real. Please continue to be your true self my sista. Love and Blessings
I'm listening to this song over and over trying to get some hope. I've been in a dark depression with debilitating anxiety everyday. Alone most of the time. So tough people!
Thank you India THE Arie for kindredly fulfilling my soul at my most lowest points in thIs short life. I am teaching a dance camp at New Faith church in Houston and I still listen to I am Light for reassurance. I unknowingly am used as a vessel when I volunteer at the inner city high schools of 5th Ward and your message reminds me to pay it forward. I love you and those who've guided, inspired, molded and have allowed you a safe creative space to become the anointed woman you are to my life story and I'm sure many like myself. Ashe-ASHE-Ashe-AaaaaSheee my chocolate sister. Thank you in every tongue, Barry Lamont Franklin
This song wakes up my soul like no other song I've ever heard. First time hearing it I went it propelled me into a state of meditation and I heard my soul strengthening my mind thru words of encouragement!! India Arie is an absolute blessing, anointed woman of God!!! May God keep her ALL the days of her life.....WOW😊😊💗💓❤️💖😁😊💓💗
This song has been such a blessing. It's the only thing that is giving me this feeling of peace and a sense of not being alone through a terrible break up I'm currently suffering from. Something about this song makes me feel okay while the song is playing. Been on repeat all night
So many souls have been saved and resonate with this song. It has stopped many suicides, from looking at the comments, and many souls are coarsing through my phonce screen that are saved and happy and here on earth. India.arie, you have ofically been a hero through the music industry and saved lives by singing your mind; I net you didnt realize youd save lives when you put this into the world, but ya sure as hell did. 👏🏽
This definitely will be my wake up song because lately I have no reason to wake up. I will try to be strong but it's so very hard. Thank you India Arie for this because I've never heard it until today. I know God placed it on your playlist for me to hear.
India.Arie, THANK you for this soul defining soul. We have never met in person but you will NEVER understand how this song is centering and keeping in this thang to just simply move forward with all of the s*** I am dealing with right now. Sista, I THANK YOU!!!…🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
This song always lift up my spirit. I have been broken to the end that i couldn't find my self. But whenever i listen to this song. I remember that i am my own light. I am in control of my feeling. People will keep on hurting me . Difficult Situation will keep on coming. Don't wait and expect something amazing to happen to you. Go and make that situation. Love yourself more. Encourage yourself. Look forward to your own happy ending .Just make sure that in your are happy ending story you are the one that are making you happy ,Not a job, a lover , your child. Those will be adding value to your happiness. BUT YOUR Happiness is you. Don't forget that your are light . Light up your happiness . Your are amazing .
Ok so I was already in tears listening to this song for the first time , but reading these comments is confirmation that India has been sent to us from the gods!! To deliver our message our story😍😍❤️❤️ Thank you
