Contrasts, life presents –
focus on the light,
I tell myself,
eyes wandering to dark corners
been up against too many brick walls
to harbour simplicity in faith,
besides, darkness holds the light
we inevitably all follow.

Yes, that dichotomy of young beliefs versus reality tested, facing the grit but with the the true comfort of light revealing a way. Loved this.

When I went into my have my operation both my daughters said stay away from the light lol, I said I might just have a peak and they both said NO, I didn’t see any lights 🙄 I had my operation on Tuesday morning the first thing I remember was when they took the tube out on Wednesday morning ☺️ My mum definitely saw the light though before she passed, she opened her eyes and looked up into the corner of the room. 😇

Glad you didn’t see the light. I spent 20 years sitting with the dying – they definitely see something, although most could not say.

Light hides in all the dark places. Sometimes we just don’t have the energy or will to find it.
