Let There Be Light: This inspiration came during a little quiet time in an undisclosed church, alone in contemplation, as the sunlight outside set the stained-glass windows aglow, the light only to fade into a soft foggy focus across the pews and altar within. My more puritanical fellows may distain the display preferring clear glass or monotone panels of drab, but light itself is marvelous in its component parts: Indeed, to truly see is a most wonderous gift, and its perhaps why on the First Day it was commanded: 'Let There be Light'... and why I am always in awe when within the great Gothic Cathedrals of Europe, crafted by peoples finding the colors Divine.
