My shadow happens to be my greatest enemy as a child. I get so irritated whenever I stand and my shadow stands with me and equally decides to sit whenever I make up my mind to sit. I was myopic.
Such a jobless Being I'd thought. At least get something doing and keep yourself busy I often muttered to myself. It never stopped following me around. Could this be my Guardian Angel? I asked myself on a second thought.
Years later, I grew and advanced mentally and that was when I realized that I was actually being repugnant to myself because I am my shadow and my shadow is me. My shadow dies when I die and having it with me simply means I have the breath of life. Now I prioritize my shadow as much as I prioritize my life.
I can't lose my shadow because it represents me infinitely. And my shadow can't die because I am a light source that powers its existence. It's a symbol of self and a glimpse of my being. If there's one thing I don't wanna lose its my shadow because loosing is equivalent to loosing my value.
With this knowledge, I restructured my thoughts, I embraced my shadow and sought to get a better view of life. I became good at what I do knowing that is the only way to add value to myself. I understood life was dependent on me just like my shadow and I posed to give it only the best.
