The definition of excellence is as follows: the quality of being outstanding or extremely good...
Light. We are fascinated with it, captivated by the sunlight coming through the tree branches, the tiny gems sparkling around the Christmas tree, and the countless dots glowing in the night sky.

We’ve all been there—sucked into our screens, spending countless hours scrolling social media, watching YouTube, or playing video games.
