SEEING THE LIGHT

When you're a child, up late at night, it seems like another world and place. You sneak from your bedroom and (wide awake) can't believe your eyes, seeing a light in the living room. Your parents are still awake, or maybe just one...

As you get older, being up late is normal, commonplace. Usually you're doing nothing but watching TV. But to a child, having escaped dreams and sleep, that light seems more amazing from the outside than anything you're doing inside of it...

And since we're older now, we cannot see the light since it's merely lighting the place where we haven't yet fallen asleep.
