There is a void like a vacuum located behind the eyes of the many, who care for few, yet wish to be loved by all.

When a light is neglected, no matter how bright, often it's glow is absorbed by this vacumm and soon fades.

Few embrace the light, or give thought to the reasons it shines so bright, or the true qualities contained within it.

I am a light bearer, a seeker, a bard, a teller of tales. I'm a minstrel, a singer of songs, a dreamer of dreams. I cherish the light I am honored to share.

I share the light of friendship that it will never fade from the earth while I live and breath.

This is my quest, my reason for sojourn. To never allow the light to fade into darkness, lost to the vacuum of complacency.

i'm of the dark, but not of the evil, i go in places that others dare not tread, for there are the lost and scared, to show them the way out. where one is clear in soul, but not sparkle, for there's not trust in the dark for lighter or darker, for transparency tells no lie. hope will ensue for a new start for some anticipating, and helpings of wisdom for all around, that we may feast this day, for a better outlook, then i send them on to you, for i must stay in the dark for words or'e explained to help more lost for i hope to find them all, for aren't we immortal, timeless with a timeline, or illusion there of?

evil dark------------------(bundy--dahlmer--gasey--hitler--stalin--mao tse tung)

All things have reason.

The tiniest glow of the firefly can be the brightest light in the darkness. It (the darkness) is an immeasurable void, for who can see within to know its depth? It is there, we have seen it bordering our glow. Many have ventured within (myself included). It can't be mapped to find your way through once lost inside, but knowing it's nature gives light value, and reason for not venturing in so far you lose sight of the light.

Does that not give it a value? Perhaps a goodness? It's all about perception, translation, even choice.

I'll keep a light on for you.

Thank you all for your posts. It's ageless, good and evil, black and white. It's life in a nutshell.

We can't avoid the dark any more than we can avoid evil in the world. Poo-Poo occurs!

Thank God for friends, huh? biggrin

A thought is nothing without someone to share it with. Words are but lines without someone to read them. A voice is useless if it can't be heard.

Friends.... you may think you could.. but you couldn't live without them.

i like to play in the light, and work in the dark, my friend, and i appreciate the light offer, more than you could ever realize, from the bottom of my heart, thank you. sincerely, vincent~

i'll send you the lost, for i'm never lost, and always content and comfortable here. we need true light, for there's never enough,(look at the universe, all dark with pinpoints of light) i have no vices, and no human needs, via sustanance, for the dark is my haven, and the lost are my quest, for i see no one else here to help, no light will reach where i find these gentle souls that need, but reasurrance, love, caring, and understanding, and a path if they need it. i am not the light, but comfort in a dark place, a harbor from the tempest.... for anyone concerned......
