Hello Beautiful Friends !
Firstly sorry for not being much regular in blogging land.I know i write this blog as online diary still i feel obliged to visit sweet people who take time and visit my really raw and rough place and share their valuable thoughts .I feel honored !
A construction work was being done in our upper floor since last week . As we here, suppose to provide lunch to labor so i was extra busy meanwhile .Coincidentally we been having guests for two days afterwards . And then my laundry and grainwash took place which ended today.
Our weather is smoothly yet pleasantly moving towards summer. Temperature are springing to 10 to 20 plus. What is the most joyous thing regarding February , are smiles of nature that have started to appear all around me :)))
But right now i am not going to share images as i have not taken yet with thought that let the smiles be more visible and delightful!
Since more than month for some reason our power remains disappear for whole day at Sunday and get back after dark 6 or 7pm.
This Sunday when power came and suddenly enlightened the whole room. I wondered "what was before light here "?
and "What is darkness actually" ? as we all know light is form of energy (photons) but what about "darkness"? what is it made up of ?
Thoughts kept hitting my head and my simple lazy mind processed them this way ,
Darkness reflects "EMPTINESS" or "NOTHINGNESS" a space which can be filled with negativity ,Until a light Vanishes it away!
Our Creator is wise indeed and his wisdom has no boundary .
He could have given "DARKNESS " a body but he did not
WHY ???
Because he showed us that "darkness" is nothing but mere an illusion ! (just like negative approach that take place in our mind when there is darkness of ignorance)
Existence of darkness is tricky.It is to challenge our power of contemplation , ability to discover and use light that our Creator has installed within us as supreme creatures of this planet .
He created "DARKNESS" before he created Light , And then he formed Huge bodies called Stars to pierce it!He could have done it oppositely but he wanted to make us think .
Stars are part of nature . They simplify and exemplify how to defeat darkness with singe ray. Nature work sublimely and gracefully right before our eyes to make us learn how to live and survive harmlessly.
Unlike humans who like adventures of complexities Nature work by simplest laws! Her characteristics of harmony and productivity are most powerful message to achieve SUCCESSFUL EXISTENCE.
Darkness is also part of her display. Seemingly most obvious and dominating Still as frail that can be killed by a tiny single ray!
It is completely onto us that whether we explore our inner light and enlighten our worlds or remain ignorant and get lost within that "nothingness" which is actually totally NOTHING in itself ! But only here to make us rise and shine :)
These were my thoughts about darkness guys .
But before starting post when i googled about it to know it's scientific definition i was shockingly happy to know that it was exactly what i though :)))
Wishing you all a happy enlightened life ahead filled with grace of Lord ,love of family and health,amen!
We need darkness as much as light. Darkness is when we sleep, rest and rejuvenate. Can't do that in the light. Darkness is where seeds germinate and new life begins. After that, light is needed, but not before.
ReplyDeleteLovely post, Baili. I crave the light in winter months but look forward to the beauty of the darkness during the summer.
ReplyDeleteAfter a busy day, the darkness can be a relief. Time to rest and get away from the world for a few hours with blessed sleep.
ReplyDeleteThoughtful post on Darkness it has an important place in our lives.
ReplyDeleteWhen my children were small we took a tour of a cave. At one point they turned off all the lights. It is almost painful to not be able to see. My eyes kept straining trying to focus on something... anything.
ReplyDeleteLovely post Baili.
ReplyDeleteYou certainly have been very busy.
After having 'light' to see with darkness is a shock until ones eyes become accustomed to the dark. It is amazing what humans can see in the dark when used to it, the feel and touch helps along the way.
Hello, lovely thoughts and post. I love the darkness, to be able to see all the stars is a beautiful sight. Enjoy your day, wishing you a happy week ahead!
ReplyDelete"Darkness reflects "EMPTINESS" or "NOTHINGNESS" a space which can be filled with negativity ,Until a light Vanishes it away!"
ReplyDeleteI wonder if not all spaces can be filled with negativity.
I like your outlook here, Baili. It rings true to me also. It's the kind if question Isaac Newton and those other scientists would have asked ages ago. What is this and why. Thought-provoking!
Are you putting new rooms on your second floor? I was surprised to read it is customary to provide lunch for the workers. We don't do that here. Though sometimes we give them water. Usually they bring all their water and food for themselves or go to fast food restaurants for lunch.
I have to ask. What is grainwash?
Your words are heartwarming dear Sandi
DeleteThank you!
Actually some work was left on rooves of upoer rooms ,hubby waited till weather was suitable
Here most of people provide lunch and tea twice or thrice to mason and labor during construction work you can call it cultural tredition :)
There is a saying that Empty head is residence of evil or in movies they show how vacant places are occupied by bad spirits so i think emptiness must be avoid by filling it up with positive stuff and energy
DeleteThought provoking words about darkness. Nicely said.
ReplyDeleteYou are a philosopher, baili! You think deeply about life and, in turn, you make me think :)
ReplyDeleteLovely post, baili! Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We need the light and the dark; it's the yin and yang.
ReplyDeleteDearest Baili...oh WOW...what a fascinating post!!
ReplyDeleteI have always felt rather intimidated by darkness...I guess that being unable to see anything around me, left my imagination free to invent "monsters"! 😉
But you have made me look deeper...and, yes, I do believe that darkness and light are within our souls too. I have always had a sneaky suspicion that a huge part of our life path is to banish the darkness within, and replace it with Spiritual Light. And your wonderfully wise words here confirm all that I believe.
Oh it is such a privilege to find someone who believes as I do about the meaning of life... especially as there is so much selfishness, greed and total disregard for human life everywhere I turn.
You are a breath of fresh air!😊😊
Have a wonderful weekend!
All my love and hugs ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Dearest Ygraine !
Deleteyou are so kind !
it is for me a pleasure to learn that i have friends who share my way of thinking ,your words carry so much love and sweetness which is rare i agree
finding such warmth among cruelties and coldness of this world is truly a blessing and i feel so blessed to have friends like you :)
Oh yes, Baili... you should write a book. :)
ReplyDeleteYour text is soothing and thought-provoking and I enjoyed reading the comments too.
Thank you for these posts.
And thank you for your kind comments. Today in Finland we celebrate Valentine's Day in its Finnish form: the Day of Friendship. :) I'm very happy to send you big hugs, dear friend! 🌼
Thank you for loving words dear Sarah ,i am a huge fan of your poetic photography believe me :)
Deletewishing you showers of more love joy and peace ahead :)
hugs!
Your choice of topics, dear Baili, is always amazing to me. I so enjoyed reading your views about darkness and light and even though darkness can be feared, it is also a good thing in many ways. Without it, we would probably not appreciate lightness. Also, I too was amazed that feeding the workers is a tradition because whenever we had workmen in our home, it was not a custom, only drinks provided on warm days as another person, Sandi, commented. It is always so interesting to read about how customs differ.
ReplyDeleteYou certainly think deeply about life …
ReplyDeleteIt sometimes seems to me that so many in this world are so busy they don't take time to think … which is such a shame.
We need both darkness and light don't we.
All the best Jan
i agree :)
ReplyDeletethey both have purpose to serve indeed!
No doubt about it, Baili!
ReplyDeleteDarkness, emptiness, or loneliness seems unfavorable.
Your words and thoughts inspire me and remind me to focus on my teacher of light :-)
