LIGHTS ON 24 HOURS A DAY

It says, "Let your light so shine", not necessarily, "at the proper time", right? I started doing my artwork when all around was dark and quiet and I could concentrate; worked through the wee hours; and since for hot summer months, I wanted to get out to the park early in the morning while it was cool, I just stayed awake a few more hours and went to bed when I got home. So I ended up having an upside-down schedule.

Most people turn off their lights at night because that's the time they sleep--I've found that's when I need to turn mine on!

Today's drawing is of a bug I saw at the park that looks like one who also turns on his light at night. He looked a lot like the "Hotaru," or lightning bug (firefly?), which has an orange head and black body also.

The Hotaru may be just a bug wearing Halloween colors; but even people who hate most insects are fond of the glowing Hotaru!
