Earth Hour: The Dark Ages vs. The Age of EnLIGHTenment

Tonight 8:30 PM. Will you celebrate darkness or light?

It's all just symbolic of course. But symbols are important. Properly chosen, they provide in a simple, visually concrete form the distilled essence of our our widest abstractions. Knowledge, experience, analysis---captured at a glance, reminding us in the space of a moment of a lifetime of identifying our highest values.

Think. Choose carefully and deliberately. And then act.

This little light of mine,
I'm gonna let it shine.
This little light of mine,
I'm gonna let it shine.
This little light of mine,
I'm gonna let it shine.
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine

Light that shines is the light of men,
Dispels the darkness from within,
Shines on me and it shines on you,
Shows you what the power of thought can do.
Shine my light both bright and clear,
Shine my light both far and near,
In every dark corner that I find,
Let my little light shine.

I love the image you chose for the occasion, showing North Korea and South Korea. It is a wonderful display showing where Capitalism lives (South Korea), and where extreme Statism lives (North Korea). A is A.
