The Light vs The Dark

We all have a light inside of us. We also have a darkness inside of us. Many

people may wonder what these two really mean for us as human beings. I

will be the one to explain in this story today.

Light - Everyone has a light that brings us farther away from the darkness.

The light could be something that makes you happy or something that drives

you to keep moving forward. For example, my friends are my light because

they always give me advice and they have been there for me when I was

always in the dark. If some people think they don't really have a light and

will never get the chance to find one, then you are mistaken. Everyone has a

light and if they don't right away then all you have to do is just search for it

or wait for it to come to you. A light can come in many forms. Like love,

friendship, bravery, admiration, and happiness. Where your light will shine

most is not in the mind, but mostly in the heart. A light is something

everyone needs and is something that will never leave once it has been

discovered. You should always protect and cherish the light you have now

and never let the darkness corrupt it.

Dark - Darkness is something we never want. Darkness can sometimes

come and go, but also come and lurk in your shadow for as long as possible.

Darkness can be something that causes us feel like we are not wanted, loved,

or happy. If the darkness gets way too out of hand, some people can do

things that could hurt us and others physically and mentally. For example,

some people would either commit suicide or hurt others in order for them to

feel better. This is never the right route. Darkness is something we want to

get rid of since it only causes pain and loneliness. People need the light to

shine brighter than the dark and not let the dark win the battle. Sometimes

we have the darkness lurking in our shadows forever because of certain

pasts we have that can just never be erased. Darkness is never good and is

never the right path to choose.

The reason I am sharing this today is because I have been through both

stages before multiple times. I have had times where life felt so meaningless,

and times when my friends came to save me from the darkness that kept on

coming back to devour me. I know many people out there are like me and

have been there and done that, but I want to get just one message across.

Everyone is special, you are not alone, and the light inside of you will shine

brighter like your future. Listen to me when I say this. Fate may be chosen

but it is not written. Never decide you should die or be alone. There will be

something out there for you that will guide you to being a happier person. I

just know it.
