It shows us new possibilities and challenges us to pursue them. This time the light shone on the heroes, coming out of the shadows to tell us; we won't be alone again. Our darkness was deep and seemed to swallow all hope, but these heroes were there the whole time, to remind us what is real, that you can see it. All you have to do is look, up in the sky.

And all those little baby steps lead to realizing that you're accomplishing quite a bit.
