On the far side of the night

Reaching for the light...
Hang on to the light...
Controlling the light...
Becoming the light...
...to shine your life!

A powerful shot, kiddo!! :-)

@Ti: We all got a little light of ours! We are the light!
But you know that light won't shine on me any time soon.

Thanks Ti :)

Hello, Shirin, I was missing you here :)

Sad but hopeful words...

Really lovely, Shirin! I see in the cloud formation a white dove released from your hand, flying toward the sky, ready to conquer the darkness. Fight to win, little dove!
