Breathing

Sometimes it takes effort just to breathe. Sometimes I've had to take life one minute at a time. Sometimes when it is hard for me to breathe I tend to hole up inside, curtains drawn tightly around me. Darkness almost feels like a friend to me... sometimes.

But light is a healer on more than one level. The more I have learned about sunshine and vitamin D, the more I realize it's not just an emotional thing but a physiological one as well. We need light. It helps our immune system fight off disease. Light changes our outlook on life.

Interesting idea in the context of I John 1:5 "God is light; in him there is no darkness at all."
