the light of one's life

"You are the light of my life," he told her.

He could feel the light of his life going out.

The light of her life, the man with whom she has spent six years, is Ivan.

- What makes you think I'm the light of your life?

"That baby was the light of her life," he added.

He is his brother's closest friend, and the light of my life.

Look, it's not easy for him with the light of his life banged up.

"I'd hate to have you as the light of my life!"

The husband stepped aside as the light of his life went down.

"He's been the guiding light of my social life and moral development."
