When thinking in color and about light and dark; darkness
is the absence of light but darkness absorbs color. Just
think of each night fall. Evening means the time when
things even out; it’s a time when colors disappear
into darkness. Sometimes we can feel everything being
absorbed into darkness. And, all colors are in light,
as seen with a prism or through a raindrop in a rainbow.
So, all colors are present and held in darkness and in
light!
When we think of our own failings and the distress of
the world in terms of darkness, we know how complex and
deep, how thick and rich the darkness is. When we think
of using light in the dark; even the smallest amount of
light can shine and remain pure in darkness. And as light
spreads, it doesn’t just cover darkness; it will
actually replace darkness and reveal the colors and complexities
that are present. Light will overwhelm darkness.
