Out of Darkness

Isn't is strange that out of some very horrible things that some very beautiful things can come?

There are horrible historical events that effect a person upon living through them and then they go to the page, or the stage, or an instrument and try to change the world.  There are more personal things that a person can experience and they react the same way and take to express there pain or there spirit how it pertains to them and they change people with their art.

This is something I was thinking of while watching the Opening Ceremonies last night for the Sochi Olympics.  Russia is not a perfect place and they have been through a great deal of turmoil over their years but there is some very exceptional Art and Artists that have emerged from that country.  Out of darkness can come some very prevailing light that can reflect across the world.  Not only in Russia, obviously, but anyone is capable of sharing something very important. 

This idea furthermore proves to me that there is always a plan whether or not we see it spelled out in front of us.  Our parts in this plan can be huge or very small but we still have a part in it. 

Chins up in your times of darkness-you don't realize how important you are.
