Light makes our surroundings more enjoyable, and darkness I always associate with apprehension. Thanks for sharing.

This can be true in more than one sense, my inner darkness comes mostly at night... memories I run from. Love when short ones are multifaceted! Wonderful Elizabeth

Nice to hear from you, Victor! My then three-year old is now a journalist so I guess he was in training! Elizabeth
