Turn-On

We all possess certain talents and gifts that are unique only to us.  You already have everything that you need to start living an extraordinary life.  It's up to you to turn on the switch and let your light shine.

I think language is so interesting.  It can also be confusing.  Words and phrases can mean very contradictory things.  Sometimes we don't even realize it.  We understand each context and don't notice the dramatic difference between one use and the next.  The idea of "turning on" someone, for example.  It can mean to attract them and entice them and appeal to them.  It also can mean to do an about-face and betray or attack them.  

It can also mean to put their batteries in if they are a human-like robot you built.  Or flip a switch to get them going if they are a solar robot.  Which is the more globally responsible kind to make.
