Drops of Light and Dark

Have you ever experienced the thrill of making a choice that defies expectations?Consider this: have you ever read a book that stirred something deep within you, sending a rush of emotion that courses through your veins?Think about those moments in life that have prompted deep reflection, about the things that evoke a particular feeling, a feeling so profound it stays with you.Often in life, we find ourselves feeling brave, like warriors, yet simultaneously terrified, like a child lost in a crowd. The feeling of being alone, a sentiment far more common than we might think.How many stories have you read that transported you through time and space, that made you feel like a shooting star soaring across the sky, transcending all else?Chances are, you’ve experienced moments of profound introspection, times when you’ve gazed into the sky, pondering the mysteries of life, questioning why things are the way they are, why you are where you are at this very moment.I invite you to embark on this journey, to discover the answers that lie within these pages. I dare you to find out.
