Thanks, yes. I think God was trying to tell me something and it is always more powerful for me when in the form of imagery and symbolism. (Like Plato's forms, right?) Symbolism, parables...like geometry, without the imperfection of reality, there is so much more scope for the imagination in interpretation and application. (Sorry, feeling a bit philosophical this morning.)
It was one of those last minute "What am I going to write for Authors in the Attic" moments of desperation. Desperation breeds inspiration, right? :) It really made me think about the visual that can occur within us with small changes away from The Source of eternal light and warmth. And made me ponder what condition my soul is in...

Love this. Did you write it? Another Ensign submission.
