Shadow

Olympus OM-2n | 50mm | Scanned negative

Don’t we ever wonder on why we reacted differently on any given situation – what makes us so unpredictable at times? Some people think that we exists in dualistic nature. The shadow exists within all of us. It is a part of us and yet we spend most of our life running from it. But far from being scary, our dark side holds the promise of a better, more fulfilling life. Our shadow makes itself known every day. It is the reason we get furious over a friend showing up ten minutes late, yell at our kids when they have done nothing wrong, and sabotage our own success at the worst possible time. Until we are able to embrace our dualistic nature, we will continue to hurt ourselves and those closest to us and fall short of our potential.
