Think about this situation: you walk in a very bright place and someone comes up to you, but you can’t recognize it because the sun, with its strength and brightness, blinds you, you may decide to cover up with the sun and shade at that moment. You needed a moment of darkness to see it better. And that’s where you recognize him. I knew if it was a friend or a stranger asking for instructions, or even someone who confused you.
When you knew who he was, you could choose to receive him in your arms, gently guide him, or just clear up the confusion and continue your path without looking back.
- Imagine a world where there’s only light.
- If you had never experienced darkness.
- How could you understand and appreciate the light?It is the contrast between light and darkness that leads to deeper knowledge.
- We are in a world of dualities: high and low.
- Hot and cold.
- Good and bad.
Pain allows us to better appreciate joy. Earth’s chaos increases our appreciation of peace. The hatred we can find deepens our understanding of love. For this very reason, life’s difficulties are a particularly powerful way to create feelings essential to our lives. Self.
The more nuances we know, the wiser we can decide, so darkness is an opportunity for reflection, more than to see better from the outside, but to see better from within, life is a journey from head to heart. of our lives facilitate this path, to open our hearts so that we can know and value them better. In short, darkness gives us the opportunity to discover ourselves and be consistent with what is in our inner world.
Imagine coming from a place where the most beautiful music has ever created sounds. It’s stunning and dazzling music. You’ve always heard it all your life, another song was never absent or always present, one day you realize that, as you’ve always heard, you never really listened to it, that is, you never liked it because you didn’t like it. I don’t know anything else. Therefore, you decide that you want to rate this song.
You decide to do it in a stimulating way that can give you access to a great reward. You could gain very deep knowledge if you went to a place where your house music didn’t sound, and once there, you’d try to recreate it, but only after the echo of the sound has been diluted. The experience of remembering and then composing the extraordinary symphony of your home would produce the best knowledge of your greatness.
You’re going to this place. There you hear a song that, for lack of memory, believes it is the only song you have ever heard, some songs are adorable, but others beat your ears with their dissonances, those unpleasant tones promote inner desire and finally the resolution: create an original song (for which this darkness was much needed).
Soon you start writing your own compositions. At first the raucous music of this new place distracts you, however, as time goes on, as you move away from the outside noise and listen to the melodies of your heart, your musical creations become more beautiful. Finally, you write a masterpiece, and when you’re done, you remember something: the masterpiece you wrote is the same song you played at home.
And this memory triggers another one: you’re that song. It’s not something you’ve heard outside of you; Music is you and you are music and, by creating yourself in a new place, you know yourself in a way that would not have been possible if you hadn’t risked outside the known borders. You know if you hadn’t. If you experienced this darkness, you wouldn’t have been able to appreciate the wonderful music around you.
Thus, the difficulties of life exist so that we can discover who we are not before remembering who we really are, that is, we explore discordant sounds and dark moments before recreating the symphonies of our home. We need darkness to see better. We need this darkness to be able to better choose the direction and improve the light.
