“Sunshine” refers to the direct sunlight that reaches the Earth’s surface. It’s the radiant energy emitted by the sun, consisting of visible light and other electromagnetic radiation. Beyond its literal definition, “sunshine” is often used metaphorically to represent positivity, happiness, warmth, and optimism. It’s associated with feelings of joy and brightness, much like the sun’s rays on a clear day, and is often used in expressions to convey cheerfulness or a sense of hope.
