Make Light Real Understanding the Darkness to be the Light.

Grinning shadow

Hello, I'm Neil Cowley - this site is my creative journal released to you for your blessing.

In my study of darkness, the light reveals itself to my consciousness.

As I raise my consciousness to create, light illuminates my path and creation manifests.

May you be blessed in your creation, and walk your path open to the light.

that the moment one definately commits oneself, then, Providence moves, too.”

–Van Goethe
