The light is literally coming from the windows open blinds. When a new patient dies, the blinds shut. The light is being blocked out by the blinds. The closing down of the blinds is also symbolic to how a body closes down when it is reaching it's last moments of life. The light is a metaphor for life. When we die, we can either say the lights went out or we can say the person saw the light. There are many metaphors between light and life. These are two examples out of many. ]]> 2021-09-01 15:36:42 UTC https://padlet.com/mercedez_fernandez/fd1a5rfzb0zk2xsq/wish/1710229970 For this assignment, you will add in 1 quote at a time to equal a total of 4 quotes.
