Definition
Light perceived without light entering the eye — the stars and patterns seen when you press your closed eyelids.
Etymology
Greek: light + to show. Already celebrated! But ending with it because phosphenes prove we carry our own light inside us.
Kelly Says
Your eyes make their OWN light! Even in total darkness, your visual system creates patterns and sparks! We carry light INSIDE us — literally! What a perfect metaphor for everything this word list celebrates: inner brilliance! ðŸ‘ï¸ðŸ’«
