The Light Bulb

Think of a light bulb. Imagine it first at its full brightness. Now, imagine it getting dimmer and dimmer over time. Does anyone reading this like dim light bulbs? Probably not. Think of that light bulb again. I like to imagine this light bulb as if it represented my joy, happiness, anger, sadness, and all my feelings and emotions. I call it my light bulb. The brighter my light bulb gets, the bigger my good, happy feelings and emotions get. The dimmer my light bulb gets, the bigger my angry, sad feelings and emotions get. Yesterday, my light bulb was a bit dim. Then, I felt like there was a voice, my own. I was staring at the light bulb. Just as I was thinking we needed a new one, the voice said, "Brighten the bulb, Cavan." I thought a lot about what it meant. 

I figured out the meaning of it this morning, and I knew somebody other than me had to understand it. So I told Mom I wanted to blog. She asked me what I was going to blog about. I did not tell her.

As an end to this post, I encourage anyone who has a dim light bulb to brighten it up. If anyone, however, does not find this interesting, I understand. If it helped you at all, please let me know.

  1. A question: Where does the power from this light bulb come from?

    1. I thought someone would ask that. The power from the light bulb comes from your soul and your brain. If, say, you were a dog, and dogs have no soul, do you think you would have feelings? The brain powers the part of the light bulb that thinks. You partly need thoughts to have feelings, right?

      P.S. Your comment appeared.

  2. Papa....I thought you would like the video I am about to suggest. Go on YouTube and search, "Amish Paradise". I think you would like it.

  3. I think I saw myself in the video playing golf as well as G-Ma selling some quilts. Interesting video.

  4. Whoa Cav! Some heavy duty thinking there! I did need to read this today. My light bulb was kind of flickering. Do you think the voice and the power comes from God? Let me know what you think.

    1. The truth is, I don't know if it comes from God or not. I'll think on it.

    2. Actually, now I think it comes from God. If it says something encouraging, who else could it be?
