🖼 ONE LINE FROM THIS PAINTING

"What does a single red lantern in the dark gather?"

📝ONGO's Reflection

A red lantern hung in a Chinese garden spreads warm light into the dark. A single small flame changes the mood of the whole garden. The lantern lights the way and, at the same time, is a marker that gathers people and commemorates a place. Just as people gather toward light, ties naturally settle where warmth is given. It need not be a great light. A single small light in the dark becomes, for someone, both a direction and a consolation.
