841 the condition of the soul

i was once again reminded how idleness, how stagnant-ness is not neutrality. there is no neutral ground. it's either for or against. it's quite annoying to think about because it's tons easier to side with darkness. it'a tons easier to unconsciously side with darkness as well. but once you jump back and reconsider everything, the light is the only place one can go. it's the only place that makes sense in light of not making sense. it's the only place worth pursuing, has meaning, and see the world more clearly. it's the only place where one finds love.



darkness swirls around me,
laughing wicked thoughts,
clawing at my feet.it's so easy to slip
when i'm living this close
to the escarpment of hell.

o lord of life,
draw me closer to the light!
let love become the language
of my heart once again.

translation.

-Steven James in Story, Chapter Venom.
