Day Breaks...Then...Night Falls...Still I remain captured by the beauty of daylight infuriated with darkness...Am I afraid...Hardly...Ive repeated daily my hatred for darkness...yet without reason... over and over again Ive asked myself why build such a feeling on something that comes so naturally...Is this natural...What defines life is enough reason for acceptance...Why cant I accept this...Daylight brings a smile to my face while darkness makes me cry..Maybe thats why...There are many reasons why that is not acceptable...Darkness...Daylight two entirely different definitions in life but so similar to an open mind...For every moment of daylight is followed by a moment of darkness...I pictured a life without darkness which is very questionable...I had to ask myself...Will I be comfortable here...I was left unanswered...This was an experience I had to endure...day by day I did all I could to block the darkness keeping a smile on my face surrounded by light...Surely enough darkness came around so I Strolled through life with a flashlight which was very artificial compaired to the smile daylight brought to me...Soon after that I realized I brung more misery to myself than any darkness ever could...I took away all reason to smile by forcing myself to do so...Trying to live my life in daylight brought darkness to my heart...I now embrace when night falls which gives me reason to smile when day breaks...There are many experiences in life I have yet to bypass in which I know I will be introduced to the darkness again...I have retired my flashlight which helped me to realize I should also smile when night falls and sometimes frown daybreaks...for every source of light may brighten your face but some failing to enlighten your heart...Daylight is no longer a factor in my life for I have learned when in darkness a simple smile provides a brightness daylight was incapable of...Admitting to myself I was running from darkness was the hardest decision I was ever to make...Running from daekness only creates a darker hole...A hole that has no problem with getting deeper...only i can make that hole deeper but I refuse to do so...these experiences I endured were very neccesary do to my neglegance of my own problems...If asked how do I feel about the two...Darkness...Daylight...I would end with a quote...lifes experiences involve both daylight and darkness without the two you would lose yourself in a realm you will not be able to find your way out of..."accept darkness and embrace daylight for your acceptance is followed by embracement".
