Light is a powerful substance. We have a primal connection to it. But, for something so powerful, situations for its felt presence are fragile.
What is to give light must endure burning.
Light is what gives joy to buildings.
In order for the light to shine so brightly, the darkness must be present.

Dear sisters and brothers, we realize the importance of light when we see darkness.
I am going to notice the lights of the earth, the sun and the moon and the stars, the lights of our candles as we march, the lights with which spring teases us, the light that is already present.
We pray that the Lord may help us to produce His light in ourselves, even in dark days, so that we might be light for others, illuminating the world and life in this world.
We have all the light we need, we just need to put it in practice.
This idea that light plays an important part in our life is important to me.
