Another superb entry! Pardon me for being such a Star Wars nerd, but I wanted to point out that the expression "light side" is not actually used in any of the nine movies of the saga. There are some instances that are close: Luke tells Leia that he can bring Vader back to the "good side" in Return of the Jedi; Han talks about the Force holding "the dark side and the light" in The Force Awakens; a few characters mention the "light" in The Last Jedi. You will notice, however, that the expression "dark side" is used frequently. I think this implies that the Force is intrinsically good.
Also, I don't mean to take anything away from Chirrut Imwe, but the first character to mention "the will of the Force" was Qui-Gon Jinn in The Phantom Menace. Thanks for writing this!
