sorry i haven't posted in a while. so here's some contradictory thoughts to make up for it

Darkness and Light both hold a certain connotation in our minds.

It came to me, that neither light nor darkness

holds completely true to Their assigned identities.

Poor darkness. There he stands, Shy and alone.

No one understands that he isn't all bad.

Everyone sees him as depressed. A permanent first impression

Is it not in darkness where we feel most comfortable with ourselves?

Away from the expectations and judgments of others.

And is it not in darkness where we can find rest?

Peace comes when we are in darkness. Like a comfortable bed in a dark bedroom.

And doesn't a blackened room provides the canvas for dreams as you sleep?

Free to dream and soar among your thoughts

while you subconsciously go through the events of the day.

Light, while it most definitely is good and it is truth, must also be questioned

How can he take such a prominent spot in our ideals

Without ever challenging the concept of light itself?

Just as dark is not all bad, light is not all good.

Light is overstimulating. While it does expose truth,

often it can shine too brightly, causing a migrane

Light along with heat, it's partner in crime,

 is also proof of a chemical reaction. Proof of a change.

Changing things into other things that they may not be

Or want to be.

Light, while it does brighten the way, can also make things feel stark.

Unfriendly, unnatural, sterile. Like fluorescent lights.

Light is intrinsically good. Dark is intrinsically  bad.

How can we place a blanket statement on such dynamic states of exsistence?

That is why I believe We must

Think about things in a new light

Or should I say a new darkness?
