Welcome To The Dark

The dark side:

Everyone has a dark side. Mine is neither darker nor lighter than anyone elses. The fears, the hates the angers the blues. Its all there. Same as you. I try everyday to be the same as everyone else. How do we know I'm not just a little darker, a little more angry, a bit more... lost.

We dont. Because darkness can't be measured. Its not something you can put a ruler against or pour into a measuring cup. Its something contained within the blackness of someone's soul.

I'd like to think I dont have a dark side. Its not true at all. I am vindictive, i'm spiteful and hateful and mean and I want to hurt those who hurt me. With one exception.  The one I never want to hurt. The name cannot be spoken for protection purposes only.

Darkness has its value though. It reminds us to protect our hearts. Keep those walls up and never let them down again. It tells us that we will be hurt again its only a matter of time.

The eater of the world is free. Its darkness whispers evils like a litany on the world. It spreads its seeds of doubt and fear and lets them sink into soft fertile soil.

There are only two ways to banish darkness.

Hope.. and Light. I'm afraid I've lost them both.

Welcome to my dark side.

Please tell me what you think

    We all possess a shadow. The part of us that lurks behind the conscious, hides out just behind the ego, energizing our want and needs when unfulfilled, harassing our dreams and our nightmares. The darkness is not to be feared but acknowledged and utilized for change, it can be employed to help you find safety, and tho it sounds weird, there are skilled listeners whose job it is to help us find our way thru - to help find our way out of dark rooms, dark thots. I know i would not be alive if it were not for a very skilled listener, and yes it’s been expensive, gallons of tears, and long anguishes raging into the night, (and i am nowhere near healthy, just healthier than i’ve been) I know there is someone who can just listen to your heart, and help you sort out the crap from the muddied confusion. I ache for you my dear, blessings and best wishes, ~richard
