a reminder...

It was such a dark and scary place, but I knew it was somewhere within me. It was cold, and I could not see anything. I opened my eyes and looked around, there was nothing. I heard a voice that told me to go deeper into the darkness. I did.

As I looked into myself, I found a tiny light. It was like a flame, or a round glowing orb, or a wisp of glimmering smoke, or something...it was just a light. I realised that was me. It was my light. So small, so weak, so fragile...never knew it looked like that. Strange.

I then looked up, away from my light, and all there was darkness. Wait...there was something more. There were dark shapes around me, in front of me, all around me. They looked slightly humanoid in nature, but I wasn't sure. I squinted, searching for a confirmation of sorts, but all I could make out were fuzzy lines, and auras almost non-existent.

Then an epiphany struck me! They WERE people, and they were all dead. There was no light in them...all of them...dead, zombies that you see in movies...vacant, empty, emotionless...it was scary...VERY VERY SCARY.

I was filled with a sadness, and I did not know what to do...with the amount of work I had done, and the things I had seen, my light was only that much...that weak, that fragile...and these people totally have no light, no hope, nothing. How was little old me going to be able to ignite their light?

I don't know...it hurts, it's daunting, it's freakishly hard...I don't know...

A voice near my light asked, "What are you willing to sacrifice to fulfill your dream? Everything?"

Another voice near it answered in a trembling (yet with a determined undertone) voice, "Yes."
