Darkness

"Have you ever held a hand in darkness? Yes, but I let it go when it threw me into a darker spot."

This is what I hear when washing the dishes. I can't hear it clearly because the sound of the water and the podcast are mixing up.

I keep thinking to myself, "I used to be scared of darkness till I fell into a real darkness. Darkness for me was noise, but it's silence now. I've gotten out of the darkness and all the noises, but I've fallen into a silent darkness."

I pour some tea, sit down, pause the podcast and start writing. I'm not in the darkness now. So, I'm glad that I'm only thinking about it.

There's a vague sound playing in my head, "Have you ever said hello to darkness? I haven't ever, but I should."

Then, I remember the saying, "When all is dark and you can't see any light, you are the light."

P. S. I didn't want my November to start dark, but here we are. Let’s think it's just a post inspired by a podcast.😜
