We stand together by the sea parting with the setting sun and welcoming the dusk. We live through the darkest times of the night without giving in to the darkness, carrying light and hope in our palms and hearts. We draw warmth from the people standing next to us and from the fire. Hardened by fire, water, earth and air we seize eternal strength and illuminating beauty from the power that is hidden within the pieces of amber. Thus, at least we greet a new day that is the beginning of something new and bright. We give back to nature what it has given to us so that everything around us continues and rises higher.
Be certain to live with the light that’s within and don’t let that light abandon you.
