She stood at the edge of the room.
Outside looking in.
The light spilled into the dark room from the bright one behind her.
She stared into the deep places where the shadows still touched and realized that Fear stood before her on the other side of the doorway.

Now it showed only the warm, comfortable room she knew.
Fear was gone.
Let in the Light.
