Dear Blogging Friends:
I’m currently conducting some independent research on dark vs. light for a book manuscript I’m putting together. I would love you to comment on this philisophical question:
If you are in a dark room and you flip on the light switch, where does the darkness go?
Thanks in advance for your contributions.
When I flip on a light switch the darkness ceases…that is the way I see it. I don’t think there is a source for physical darkness as in something emitting it/giving it out…darkness is a product of what is NOT there…a product of the absence of light. In a way, darkness helps to define light.
I love to think about these things!! Thank you for the challenging question.
Nice insight. Thanks for contributing! Help spread the word for me if you can. I’d love to hear more insightful comments like this. Thanks again!
I am new and I don’t have many followers, but I will let them know of your “question.”
I am honestly not trying to promote my blog here. Really! but today I used those very words….here is the link if you are interested.

I wrote a poem about this once. I don’t think the dark ever totally goes away; it hides. I think it becomes shadows – under cats, behind people, falling away from houses. I suppose it won’t ever totally go away until the Second Coming. Interesting question!
