“Even something as small as a man’s thumb, when held very near the eye, can blind him to the very large sun. … Blindness is brought upon the man by himself. When we draw other things too close, placing them first, we obscure our vision of heaven.”
— Neal A. Maxwell
We must take great care that we recognize the most important things and not block them out with lesser things. The moon is an amazing thing, but it’s brightness is solely due to the reflection of the sun. It itself does not emit light! Likewise, many things in our life seem to light the way, but bring very little value compared to that of the Light of the World.
