The Same Light

Light entered my world today, not from the east, solely from the north. A swath of blue and white within a sky covered with dark clouds. Instead of the window I look out to see the expected, I choose an alternate window to see the unexpected. The same light seen through a different world view.

“In this treacherous world, nothing is the truth or a lie. Everything depends on the color of the crystal through which one sees it.”
