CHOOSE LIGHT!
Tonight, December 8th, is the second night of the Jewish Holiday, Hanukkah. It commemorates events which took place almost 2,200 years ago. It was a dark period in history in the Land of Israel, which was occupied by the Seleucid Empire. The miracle happened when a small source of light dispelled the darkness. This is why this holiday is called the Festival of Lights.
According to the Torah, the light was one of the first creations, “And God said, “Let there be light”, and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness (Genesis 1:3). Now the question is – can we do the same? My answer is yes. We just need to let light in our hearts, to enable us to use our moral compass. There is always light and darkness. Choose light.
The word “photography” means “drawing with light”. One of my forthcoming photo books has the title, “42 Encounters with Illumination”, which is going to be ready in 2024. Meanwhile, my new book, “Retirement Solutions for Smart People™. How to accomplish Financial Comfort” may shed some light for people who are retired or are planning to be. Please order the book here and write a review when you have it read.
The above images of light reflecting in the water were captured during our recent trip to Eastern Europe on the Danube River. I will share some of my travel experiences with you in the coming weeks.
Enjoy and share with a friend!
