Darkness, the truest darkness is not the absence of light. It is the conviction that the light will never return, but the light always returns, to show us something new; home, family, and things entirely new or long overlooked. It shows us new possibilities and challenges us to pursue them. This time the light shone on the heroes, coming out of the shadows to tell us; we won't be alone again.

All you have to do is look, up in the sky. – Lois Lane	added by Multiverse-Goddess 3 years ago

How far do we crawl. How far, is far enough, before we return to spiral again. Salvation. Salvation is like salt in the vein, that fuels the numbness. We all want to be saved. Safe from harm and pain, preseved from the pervasive animosity that grows in the reoccurring years. But we are never safe. Vulnerable to the bitterness that we bite off and swallow. – Anthony Liccione	added by anonymous 3 years ago
