March 27-29: Light & Darkness

From @geoffthomas:

“Dear Guest
If Electricity Becomes Extinct
Use Battery Light to Overcome Complimentary Darkness”

Turning the computer screen towards me, the grinning receptionist was obviously proud of his latest safety notice. I politely offered to make some minor adjustments before pressing ‘PRINT’. However, he clearly trusted Google’s translation tools far more than he trusted an Englishman.

From konfuzed:
Like stars in the night sky, my friends are little sparks of light in an otherwise dark world.  And like stars, it's not until total darkness is upon you, do you realize how brightly they really shine.

From @minatilou:
He lay awake in the pre-dawn darkness, listening to the rain as his lover slept. No need to leave the womb-like security of the duvet. Today was Sunday and it would be hours before the rising sun backlit the clouded sky. The only irritation; Get up and pee or not?

From @bangkokgirlblog:
“Are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark”?

There’s a well-known saying that when God closes a door, he opens a window.

The trouble is whenever I find an open window, it closes just as I reach it.

Perhaps I am destined to remain a lost star. 

From @directrun:
In the screaming silence I told myself to lose the person we had become. Drop the light and blend with the darkness that brightens all who break the mold. A mother’s shroud should be permanently temporary offering empty completeness. As vacuum became palpable a heavy lightness lifted my newness to frighteningly aged depths.

From @directrun:
I am black. My sister is white. We never had a fight. There was strife coming from the outside, continually twisting our light darkness into stripes of confused wrath. 

In time we took different roads to the goal of creating our families.

The oneness we had continued solid, the wrath expanded globally beyond our comprehension.

From @directrun:
A worm lives in the light of his world of darkness. He loves the warmth of his world beyond anything mankind could ever understand. The true nature of his existence is multiplied exponentially by the bold colors transmitted to his soul by the earth he molds.

Vast vibrations keep him in tune to his heart.

From @sengkang:
New met, a gleam in her eye, but I couldn't see properly. "Come here, step into the light." "Oh, Highway 61 Revisited." A fellow worshipper. I was transfixed immediately. We became soulmates. She's gone, my life darkness. Or better, "It isn't dark yet, but it's getting there."

From @sleepypigrabbit:
She looked at him longingly in the darkness of the night, wishing that everything would remain at a standstill. Time was passing too fast, the first light of day beginning to appear. Leaning closer for one last kiss, she then pushed his cold body into the water. "Goodbye," she said, as she watched him disappear.

From @Naamtok:
Gafae-Yen she called it – Thai Iced coffee, no frills, no fanciness just real coffee, chilled down to cold with ice. Sumptuous, strong, borderline bitter coffee, a stark contrast – darkness, briefly at least, before swirling with the light condensed milk. A simple mixture, creating something better than the sum of its parts. A new lifelong ritual.

From @shayanbkk:
I wake up in the middle of the night, thirsty. It's pitch black and I'm fumbling through the darkness looking for my water bottle. It's surreal - the absence of light. My thirst grows and heart beats faster. Where's the darn switch?

From @PennyKinned:
He laughs easily and often, eyes crinkling with mirth and warmth as he looks at her. She is delighted by the lightness of his ways – and she knows she is going to fall for this man.

It is only later that his darkness shows itself, and by then she is in too deep.
