When the World Goes Dark, Where Do We Find Light?
At seventy-three, standing in her backyard watching sunset filter through pine needles, Mary Pipher realizes something profound: the golden light she's been chasing her entire life was never outside herself. Born on February 11, 1947-exactly 100 years after Thomas Edison on the anniversary of his light bulb invention-Pipher's life story reads like a meditation on illumination itself. But this isn't a memoir about easy enlightenment or Instagram-worthy epiphanies. It's about a woman who learned to find radiance in the darkest corners of human experience-abandonment, poverty, loss, and a year-long pandemic that stripped away everything she thought defined her. Through her journey, we discover something crucial: light isn't something we find; it's something we learn to see, even when the world insists on darkness.
