The Dark & The Light

You are Dark! You are Light. Whether you are shining for the light or for the dark, you are still shining.

Although, it’s from the movies or in real life, both side want a life that is worth for a living and fighting for people who they can died for. For the dark, the best they know how by abusing the power and for the light, the best way they know is by keep shining! But, none is right, none is wrong; both serves the same purpose of their side and both side has never ending story too.

Be the light or be the dark, both lead to the same destination.

The light shines because their heart stays pure and take pains as lessons to learn. While, the dark shines because their heart is covered with pains and let the pain controls them. But, where does the pain comes from? It comes from bitter experiences, the hopeless moments that the pure heart had to go thorough. In order to survive is to kill the heart; to kill the emotions. But, do you truly belief they are that heartless? If they are that heartless, why would they revenged those who are on the same side as them?

We were born pure; we were born with light inside of us but our soul has decided to choose side before we start to live in this life. But, can we truly blame them too? Not everyone’s soul would shine bright each time our heart breaks! Even for once, the ones with pure soul may have done a mistake.

What if there’s no darkness, there is no light? What if actually that all of us just the same; we are all one? Those who live in the darkness also have family; a circle and they want to keep the bond and their circle stronger and protected. And those who are in the light also expanding their light bigger so other will shine too; shine with love.

Think about this: Is it wrong what those people in the dark do what they did or are doing to the society? How could you say they are wrong, when the only “best ways”, they know on how to love is by getting through pains and believing that “pains is not suffering but enduring pain means you are strong, unbreakable?” It’s just the same with the light, isn’t? The only belief to create peace and balance is by using the power of pure love as love is the most powerful energy in the world.

Aren’t both the same? If you are being raised through hell, would you expected yourself to easily belief in pure love? And if you are being raised with full of love and happiness, would you able to go through hell with a smile? Ones have to go through the greatest sorrows and love, to be able to understand both.

What if, we are born and experiences the two side, so we do not need to choose? What if, you are created to be the bridge between two sides? so neither the light nor the dark expanding their power but to just build their own world without being interrupted?

What if you are possed both power? the power from the darkness and the light? What if you are a shaman who have dark magic with pure heart? Are not mean that you are meant to be the bridge between two side; two world? What if , you are not meant to choose; just need to keep that bridge balance and safe? What if, that what, we , human are created to do?

There’s always two side of the story; the good, the bad but maybe, there’s an additional side and from the highest point-of-views, where you do not decide, but you just stand in between.

Could it even be possible?
