Posted on February 2, 2012 by nrosanoff

Light is born into darkness. The darkness cannot see the light. The light, unseen, seems to be part of the darkness. When Light becomes aware of itself, the dark disappears.

First We Get A Glimpse

Posted on April 6, 2011 by nrosanoff

In every life there will be at least one moment when ongoing grind of daily life blinks – revealing the timeless harmony of existence.
