let there be light

a friend of mine made beautiful luminaries for a recent event and sent me the meanings of the word. "luminary" can be defined as 1. a person of prominence or brilliant achievement or 2. a celestial body that gives light. etymology comes from the middle english/french "luminaire", latin "lumin" or "lucere" which means to shine. i hope you have such a person in your life, i know i do. as they put it, "let there be light!"
