Light is one of the greatest gifts and one so needed. For thousands of years, fire was the only answer. Such kindness, light, warmth, safety, utilitarian, and in the end it became an enduring comforter, a role it still enjoys. The quest for more efficient light was solved 144 years ago with the invention of the light bulb. But there was and remains one light, the light for living, which remains our greatest need. We continue to refine light for our physical space but light for living well, living in peace with our neighbor, living kindly with the earth, living worthily, and living successfully in the complexities of life remains often dark. Who will save us from this darkness? Who will provide us with this light for life, light for living?
