Once I wrote this short thought in my notebook:

    I'm a child no wanting to face reality;
       I'm a fairy not wanting to face my shadow

I believe now I've faced at least reality, once and for all. I don't live in a dream castle built of clouds anymore. About the shadow part I still don't know. That's what I'm still missing in my knowledge of myself; my dark side.

Everyone's got a dark side. It's just difficult to define and stake out, because it's the dark side. I wonder how many know or even want to know about their dark sides? That would increase the knowledge of myself to almost 100 percent. But is it ever possible? If you cast a light in the dark, it's not dark anymore, is it?
