As an adult (after college) and as an artist I thought about what was real, what sustained me - it was Christian Science. I was using that when I didn't know it. Saying yes to the Light and your better instinct.
Experience is a revelation in the light of which we renounce our errors of youth for those of age.
My imagination completely controls me, and forever feeds the fire that burns with dark red light in my heart by bringing me the best dreams. I've always had a wild imagination, a big heart and a tortured soul so I feel that dark fantasy, love and horror are in my blood.
Close your bodily eye, that you may see your picture first with the eye of the spirit. Then bring to light what you have seen in the darkness, that its effect may work back, from without to within.

The idea behind our shoes is simple: they are as light as possible, very soft and made from the finest leather we can buy.

This is the type of luxury people want to buy now, things that they can use every day.

Even if change in a voice is light, and people maybe don't notice it, that slight change is, for singers, a bit of an earthquake.
In television, everything is gone with the speed of light, literally. It is no field for anybody with intimations of immortality.
To me, it's always been a challenge to look for the light: to look for those spaces in your heart where there is hope and faith and try to embrace that rather than crush it. I've spent so many years trying to crush those feelings of hope, and I certainly succeeded for quite a while.
Can we call the essay its own genre if it's so promiscuously versatile? Can we call any genre a 'genre' if, when we read it from different angles and under different shades of light, the differences between it and something else start becoming indistinguishable?
A smile is the light in your window that tells others that there is a caring, sharing person inside.

Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you.
Every day some new fact comes to light - some new obstacle which threatens the gravest obstruction. I suppose this is the reason which makes the game so well worth playing.
