And there was Light

And there was Light - just like that.  From beyond the void; that great expanse of no-thingness between what is and is not; between thought and action, appeared the first glimmering of awareness.

Sounds big, does it not?  A cosmogenesis; a creation myth perhaps?

Nothing so significant, I'm afraid.  It's just a description of an idea, a concept, and how it goes from concept to  reality: thought - word - being.

And still, 'not significant'?

We create by perception.  Perception comes before conscious thought.  In that sense, then, every thought - word - being sequence is creation in its own right.

Light is a funny 'thing'.  In order to perceive it, one must be in a certain state of darkness.  Darkness, then, is not to be feared.  It is the natural state from which to commence a journey of en-Lightenment.

The Light is within you; let the Light shine.

  1. And in seeking light we find hope. I believe when we are born, we are each given a star – and it’s our job to polish it and make it shine.
