Today is the 3rd day of cloudy skies , gray rough seas, strong winds and cold temperatures. It is beginning to affect my moods and my energy. I find myself wanting to sleep all day or just experiencing a fuzziness in my thinking process. If I venture outside at all it is to stand on the veranda, look out over the water and heave great sighs of melancholia.
How important is sunlight or bright light or light in general to Humans?
What sets the general tone of happiness when communicating to other Human Beings?
If you walk into your local coffee shop and greet the barista with, "Isn't is a beautiful rainy, gray day outside. I woke up feeling so good!" The barista will think you are a crazy person. Ain't no sunshine when your gone, another example of the bad way we feel without the light. Your loved one leaves you and so does the sun. You are in the dark all alone.
So our loved ones are the light of our lives, our children are the light of our hearts and even our religions use light to show us the way. Our Savior is the light of the world.
Light is used to make us feel safe so we sleep with a night lite on when we are children. We have security lights installed on our homes when we want to feel secure when we sleep as adults.
Recently there was a rise in an old fashioned disease called Rickets. Rickets was on the rise again in the black communities of the south because they were using sun block on the children to prevent them from getting skin cancer but it also prevented the sun from getting vitamin D into their systems via their skin and the children developed Rickets! So light is essential to our health.
We use light in art and to decorate our houses and to watch our sports at night.
We cannot live with out it in every aspect of our existence.
I hope the light comes back to Paradise soon. I want to go outside and play in the sun with the Dog on the beach and come into the house with a red nose from an exposure of too much sunlight not from a wind burn!

Photography is writing with light. No sun, no light, no photography. And life without pictures and love is not worth living. In the sunlight we go !
