everything is extraordinary.

A sensible man will remember that the eyes may be confused in two ways -
by a change from light to darkness or from darkness to light;
and he will recognize that the same thing happens to the soul.
~ Plato ~

and makes us aware that we are nothing,
but the light is all.

I went for a walk today, just for a little while, looking for light. This is what I found.
