Can't Light Your Darkness Anymore

People who live 'in the light' exude light and warmth that extends far beyond them. Their aura is strong and vibrant, felt deeply by those around them and even at a distance. People enjoy being around them even if barely touched by them. Others have made a choice to live in the darker side of life, some proudly, others defiantly. In some odd way those in the dark are particularly drawn to those in the light, like the proverbial 'moth to the flame.' The moth is typically burned; in life frequently the light is dimmed as it merges with darkness. This is even more prevailing when the person who chose the darker side refuses to leave it while the one in the light continues trying to light their darkness.

The vibrant colors of a light filled world gradually fade to black and white, and difficult. Those in the dark enjoy a special kind of glee in their quest to diminish and finally extinguish the light around them; it makes them uncomfortable. This was always the challenge. Time stands still as the colors of life fade away. As you search for yourself it seems there is always someone else you see for nothing looks the same when colored in the hues of gray. This is the world of dimming light gradually fading away. It can be a strange place to find yourself in, one where chuckles follow their intent to cast a spell on you. It is oh so fun to them and oh so frightening to you.

By now you may be feeling it is much too late to save yourself; but you're wrong. Things may seem fragmented as you search for who you used to be, wondering if you're ever going to find your way back. There are two important things to remember... things look different and frightening in the dark, and light always overcomes dark. You can find your way back but only if you are willing to leave the darkness and step back into the light.

These kinds of relationships are more common than one might imagine. There is simply a natural attraction to the light for those who have chosen the dark; it is a curiosity that cannot be quenched. They may tell you they mean you no harm but all that you embrace cannot survive in darkness; it thrives in the light. And so do you. It's not really so difficult; you must decide who you like the best. The person you were or the one you are becoming as you attempt to grow in the dark. You will either lose everything or change everything when you accept that you can't light their darkness anymore.

Kecemburuan semacam ini

Jacey melemparkan cangkir kopi kaca, (Mug Kaca Berinsulasi Dinding Ganda Zwilling), melintasi dapur. Itu menghantam dinding yang baru dicat (Behr, Sweet Coconut Milk, M230), dan hancur menjadi triliunan kepingan. "Inilah yang telah kamu lakukan pada kami!" teriaknya, suaranya berderak karena cemburu, kuku jarinya yang terawat (Orly Cold As Ice - perawatan bernapas + warna) menusuk udara ke arah tumpukan puing-puing kaca. Blayne menundukkan kepalanya, dagu keduanya mengenai dadanya terlebih dahulu. "Maaf, sayang," gumamnya. "Maaf?! Maaf!" Dia mengambil sekotak Wheat Thins dan mengangkatnya di atas kepalanya. "Tolong jangan melempar yang lain!" Blayne memohon, berdiri dari posisi setengah duduk di bangku logam di dapur. Ini adalah bangku yang sangat tidak nyaman (Bangku Meja Grejsi dengan Bingkai Logam), tetapi Jacey menyukai cara logam itu memantulkan sinar matahari di sore hari, jadi itulah yang dia beli. Dia mencondongkan tubuh ke arahnya,...

Thirteenth step

My grandmother attends the church basement on Tuesday evenings. I saw him there among the metal folding chairs and antique coffee pots, his figure trembling under the fluorescent lights that buzzed like dying insects. She wears the same powder blue pullover she was buried in, the one with pearl buttons that catch the light like little moons. Others can't see it, of course. They just feel a sudden chill as they pass by where she is, or smell the ghostly smell of her Shalimar perfume mixing with the smell of burnt coffee that never leaves these rooms. But I see clearly. He's been following me to AA meetings for three months since I got my first white chip after five years of being back in the bottle. "Your grandmother was my godmother in 1985," old Pete told me after tonight's meeting, hands shaking as he poured a seven-pack of Sweet'n Low into his coffee. "Toughest godmother I ever had. She saved my life." "Mine, too," I said, not specif...
