{the shadow proves the sunshine}


I've been listening to this song a bit lately, from an album I'd kind of forgotten about and haven't heard in a few years, but which I used to leave on repeat in the car for days and months on end. It was good for long solo trips, one of those CDs that as a whole felt quite sad and heavy, but hopeful and meaningful at the same time.

This is the kind of sadness that is actually startlingly beautiful - the kind that's not empty or worthless. A shadow that isn't only the absence of light, but also evidence of it.

Oh! So simple but so so true. I'm saving this thought.

Captivating photos and idea, "A shadow that isn't only the absence of light, but also evidence of it".
