THE GLOW OF LIGHT SHINES AS A RAY OF HOPE IN A CRACK
Leonard Cohen said in the song anthem, "there is a crack in everything and that is how the light gets in". It is important to see the influence of light in the crack of everything ever put together be it a physical, mental or emotional crack. Imagine darkness in the crack and how unattractive, dark, evil it would look. There would actually be no light that would shine out of those cracks.
The heavens "the famous footstool of God", with the birds, the sun, the cloud a wonderful and perfect creation of God. The thrill and fill we get of a new day and how we hope its going to be good and exciting. The light pops in and shows us why exactly it was the first of God's creation. It shows us the beauty in all that we see, the beauty in the heavens which would not have been visible in total darkness. The beauty the sunlight and moonlight gives our world is something that mere words cannot capture.
Light is a symbol of cleanliness and holiness. It is the embodiment of the morally good things we do. It is not corrupt and neither can it be corrupted. Light is just the privation of evil or what is darkness. It is purely immaculate, maybe it explains why we believe that anything born of the darkness is evil since it is isn't done in the light. We know that at the end of our adventurous lives our deeds would be held against the light.
Hope is born of the light. We all hope for that bright light at the end of the tunnel. We dream of a better day, a better future, a better life than we have at the moment. It is all we live for and the moment when hope is diminished, life loses its worth. Hope is how we have come through the cold wars, the world wars, the Hiroshima attacks, the Munich disaster and all the natural geographic disasters. Its how we survive the famine, the pestilence. It is also how we survive heartbreaks. Heartbreaks could actually be from so many spheres, it could come from just about anything. It could be from the loss of a loved one, from being jilted by ones lover, even from the loss of a football match just like Liverpool lost the match to Real Madrid in the champions league final. Come to think of it, light gives us hope, just like a crack there is the rays of sunshine that the future could be better than the past if we can work on present situations. Just that little light is enough to live for just another day.
The beauty in life is that light that shines upon it. The beauty that would not have been visible in the darkness. It would not have mattered the number of beautiful trees in the garden if we could not see it. The beauty of life is not known to the visually impaired, he just dreams of the good old days when he had his vision.
So light in any form is positivity. It is all the good we hope and live for. It is what we want in the cracks of our lives. After all we do not want to let the darkness in.
Imagine something great being created in that beautiful mind of yours. You imagine it is just a mere thought that you cannot express through language or any form of communication. It is all bottled up within you, you must wonder what darkness, unhappiness, sad mood would be had. What is being cooked up by our beautiful mind is brought into light by our means of communication. This shows that language is considered as a light that elucidates beautiful ideas. Without language or any means of communication do you think there would be any form of scientific discovery? I do not think so.
Here, it might seem that I am writing something religious. This is quite funny because I can very well be said to doing something quite on nature. Nature is beauty and has shown two sides to itself, it has shown the dark and the light to the world. It has shown light to be an illumination that glows upon us when we are in the light. The dark on the other hand conceals all that really are in existence at a given time so that the beauty of nature would not be seen.
this is simply beautiful my friend
Thanks for the comment
First of all what is this doing in the health-section of air-clinic?? Second of all, darkness is just the absence of light. There's nothing evil about it. Regarding intentions if you want to sinntben you can do that on broad daylight as well. Therefore, I urge you to look at everything the way it's with absolute involvement and intensity because nobody, in my opinion, has the right to pass a judgement against the Creators Creation. Why?? Because you didn't make it. That's why.
I am quite sorry for putting this within the health section of air-clinic. I hope my apology is accepted. If that that is all which I think it is not, then I would like to raise my objections to the points you made. I made mention here that I am writing no religious piece on this issue. What I write goes beyond religious and something somewhat of being superficial. What I am doing here is quite on a metaphysical level.
There surely could be said to be something evil about darkness however way you want to see it. It is not to mean that darkness is reducible to evil or evil to darkness. I am quite aware that evil could be perpetrated in the light and this is not something I am new to. Mentioning that no one has the right to make a judgement because he did not create what is in question is also said to be a judgement too which you make of me. If at all I am making a judgement here, you should do well to accept that you are passing a judgement of my lack of creating abilities that your supposedly creator has which I do not. At least it is worthy of note that I am not the only one doing or passing the judgement here. You are also doing the same judgement you accused me of. It is quite funny for me reading this because there was no where I categorically said that darkness is evil. Read in between the lines and digest.
Now I have come to the part where I answer that of the creator and his creation. Who? What? Where? Whose? or whatever is the Creator? What is he, she or it like? What powers does the creator have that his creations should not be judged or questioned by human beings. I am no atheist here and it is worthy of note to say that when we talk about creation, various cultures have different stories to tell on who their creator is. I just hope you are not trying to enforce your own unquestionable beliefs in your creator because if yours is like that it should not be the basis upon which you judge that I should raise no questions. Have asked who or what my creator is? What it is like? Is it the case that such creator allows questioning from me? If yours does not, that should not be the basis upon which you should judge whether I question or judge my own creator because you have no idea of what it wants from me.
It's an inward experience. Not a philosophy or a belief.
Our experiences are not the same as others. So many people have never had an encounter or experience with who their community says is their creator, yet they go ahead to believe.
I would like to ask how many persons have encountered or experienced their creator. Why do you think religion is based on faith? To a very wide and large extent I stand to be corrected today that they are our believes and philosophy with which we live our lives. Whatever experience we have is merely physical and not beyond that.
