Why do you consider the sun as the brightest year?

The sun is not a year or any other length of time. It is a star. It is the brightest star to us as it is the star that all the planets in our solar system revolve around, therefore it is the closest to us and so it appears the brightest. There are many other stars far larger and brighter than our own but we are not close enough to them to receive their light more than our own sun.
