Imagine the dark world. Let's forget for a second that life wouldn't exist without a sunlight (that tells us about importance of light) and focus on the atmosphere. You probably have noticed that in movies, wherever the evil takes over the world, there is a dark everywhere, there are no bright colors and people are too serious. That could be the general feeling projected from luck of light.
We all have experienced the influence of light on our moods. When you get up in the morning, not always but in most cases, even if you have no particular reason to feel happy about that day, sun will help you to get through it, more easily. The beautiful, sunny day, definitely means a lot to all of us. Not to mention sunlight as a source of life as this article is not that serious and I am not that smart.
Lights do make us feel safer. People are afraid of what they cannot see. Sometimes, when it happens that in your street lights get off, you don't feel that much safe as when they are on. You start to imagine that there is someone behind that tree and if you try enough you can almost see it. That is how our mind is strong to make us believe anything. Maybe we should be more afraid of our minds than from the dark.
Anyway, we need light for felling more secure from the crime, too. Unfortunately, we live in that kind of world where people are in danger from other people. People are spending so much money for installing lights and security systems to their houses in order to stop other people to brake into their houses and hurt them.
As we see from the beginning of this story, sunlight gives life and other lights protect life. Another way of protecting lives is lights in traffic. Lights on the cars, bikes, tracks, robots are protecting us from crashes, where we can lose our lives easily.
What about lights and art? In a term of photography, even the most compelling subject will not be able to make effective image, without a good light and the most appropriate illumination. In an aspect of movies it is an art and a skill to set up the good lighting that will prevent shadows from interfere with the scene and been seen by the camera.
Beside arts, lights are important in our personal lives, for our good mood, for romantic atmosphere, for parties as all this helps us to cope better with life full of stress and responsibilities. Maybe, sometimes we should stop for a second and think about what we have, how blessed we are, with many thing that make our life easier. If we pay attention to things around us, maybe we will appreciate more our world.
