Abstract
A moment when the light goes on could be when you realize or accept that you have the ability to do something you had not previously thought possible. It is when new confidence bursts through and you see a situation or your future in an entirely different way. What was hidden in the shadows is now illuminated, and the path ahead becomes clearer. It is like the light at dawn, which brings a fresh understanding and clarity about the way forward. It can be a joyful realization or the recognition of a painful reality.
