Your shadows show up as happy bright surprises - until they've backed you into a corner with no way out but through them.
But secretly, you have the advantage - within you is where they've been created and therefor is all they're capable of so there is no risk of diminishing self by exploring them.
They are apart of you, as you are apart of them.
A balancing act determining how you will emerge.
So dive deep, go within.
Sit with your shadows, uncover the darkness.
Investigate what creates the colour that they are, for it contrasts the colour that you are.
And when you merge the shadow and light shades together, you get not one nor the other.
It's a brand new shade - there's no telling what it looks like or if its consistency will stay the same.
But the choice...
The choice is to choose something unknown...is it really unknown if it becomes from your own?
