The magnitude of the present catastrophe

so nearly extinguishes the light.

Are we the light as our scriptures say?

If so only a faint bit of light in the distance

So dim.

Can it be that this light will shine brightly one day

When we can love each other with no qualifications?

I have heard that light will always overcome darkness.

Where is this light today?

Maybe this light is the little things that we do that give witness to the gratitude that we have. 

One little light in the darkness is certainly better than a burned out candle.
