Light

L is for light.

I chose to write about light for so many reasons. I am fascinated with it in its many forms. First light of day is miraculous to me. The way the light plays in the clouds, sending its rays out across a crispy blue sky gives me pause every time. I'm going to make a point of seeing more sunrise light in the coming months.

Then there's light from fixtures. Have you ever noticed the difference it makes in the way you feel based on the way the light in a room has been handled? That's why the best interior designers employ artful combinations of direct, indirect, ambient, task, accent, and recessed lighting. It serves to complete the decor in a home in a way nothing else could.

Light is also used in all kinds of healing therapies for depression, skin disorders, etc. - from lasers to ultraviolet.

I don't know if I can officially classify fireworks as light, but they do indeed light up the sky and peoples hearts as they watch the spectacle of any major pyrotechnic show.

Of course I can't leave out candlelight. Use your own imagination to bring back a time where candles made something special even more so.  I won't say more there.

And lastly, I come to what I think is the most important aspect of light. It's the light that is the opposite of darkness. The light that is a beacon to lead us to awakening. The light that dances in the spiritual eye reminding us that there can be no darkness where there is light! Eternal soul thanks go out to  Paramahansa Yogananda for showing me where the light is.

And there you have it!
