I love watching fireworks; the bit where they cascade into colour in the night sky! They light up the darkness, each demonstrating their unique splendour spread abroad for all to see; anyone who would look up and take notice.
If a firework, fails to light or fizzles out before it has time to shoot skywards or perhaps goes off course, we are disappointed and a low murmur is heard throughout the crowd of spectators. However the opposite is true when colour and light and energy and life explodes in front of us; we stand amazed, some of us exclaim, others stand in silent wonder. for just a few seconds we are captivated.
Light overcoming Darkness
A spark becomes a trajectory which leads to a crescendo of colour: its full potential is realised.
Can we cheer that for each other?
And when the darkness is overcome with many colours and shapes and sounds and cascades of light all adding their vibrance and voice....
Can we look to the Light and see a smile?
