On Like a Light

On like a light. The bulb is cold and dim until the electricity runs through it to heat the coil to create the light. Lights can be found in many sizes. Lights also have different wattage capabilities. So is life. Your born with nothing except the possibility of doing anything, like a light lighting an entire room. Some people are born only to lead a small role in life, like a light in a shed. They are important but only on occasion. If the light goes out it has to be replaced, though it can be easily replaced.

Lights at stadiums are important in-groups. Alone they could not light the stadium. As a group the entire stadium can be as bright as noon. Same thing can be said of a large company, alone, no one person can accomplish the corporate goal. If one person leaves there is a dark spot or hole in the light but it is not completely dark.

Some lights are high society like spotlights. They light up special occasions and are not seen as often as the common light. These spotlights shine for miles and can seen by many others. When gone they do not shine they are missed but not forgotten.

All lights burn out eventually. It is a fact that even though a light may have dimmed over time, the light will have a small bright flash before it burns out to be extinguished forever. The same has been proven about the end of a life. There will be a flash of brilliance or clarity before that life is extinguished forever.
