The Beauty of Darkness

In the beginning, there was light, Light to make beautiful God’s great creations. With this light came darkness, Darkness to shield these great beauties So they would never be taken for granted. -Eddie Belcher

Thanks Bill. Sometimes the things that we dread or fear are the very things that really give our lives meaning due to the contrast they bring.
