means we’re not by love and light led

This is a wonderfully profound and concise couplet. The perfectly balanced eight-syllable lines create a steady, contemplative rhythm that suits the wisdom of the message beautifully. I really love the sharp contrast between the heavy sounds of "angst, anguish and dread" in the first line and the uplifting, airy resolution of being "love and light led" in the second. A brilliant, bite-sized thought for the day!
