A Box full of Darkness


Box full of darkness means a time full of trials and problems but time will come that this darkness will help you become better person, teaches you many lessons of life to have a better future. ~ Rona Peñaranda 

Someone I loved once gave me a box full of darkness. It took me years to understand that this too, was a gift.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. ~ Martin Luther King, Jr.

Light is meaningful only in relation to darkness, and truth presupposes error. It is these mingled opposites which people our life, which make it pungent, intoxicating. We only exist in terms of this conflict, in the zone where black and white clash. ~ Louis Aragon

In life you can go through hardships with someone and in the end be full of bitterness and resentments (darkness) but buried deep inside this box is a wealth of insight, compassion, forgiveness sand self-awareness. When you dig deeply enough to reach this layer, you’ve found the real buried treasure, the true gift that’s hidden in the darkness. You end up being a better person because of it. ~ Brigitte Nicole
