They certainly do creep upon us when we are blinded by the light and warmth of that sun. This is a great reminder to be always cognizant that where there is light, darkness will come. A beautiful write, Ryan.

Ahh the shadows.. but as long as the faces are kissing the sun, they will both have enough heat and light to deal with anything that may come their way. π

Exactly! Without a hint of shadows the sun would never seem quite as bright. Thank you, Miss Skittles. I’ve missed your feedback, I’m glad you’re back and hope things are better in your world.
