The stars are found when there's darkness.
So there's still a light to the dark.
Shadows are found when theres sun.
So there's still a dark to the light.
If it wasn't for the stars, these bars, would never be written
If it wasn't for the shadow,
Life's water would still be shallow.
Cuz nothing would be worth telling,
worth sharing,
Worth ... experiencing.
And if ur not experiencing, ur not living.
if ur not living then why are u alive?
If u want a perfect world just realise it's the shade in the sun, that protects us from to much heat.
The stars in the night that guide us when there is to much darkness.
although these failures may seem inevitable and it may look like the dreams have become untouchable, instead of wat used to look like reachable. At the end of it, it makes our dreams successful.
