What is light without a place of darkness?
I have pondered this question for considerable amounts of time. It seems both poetic and inherently cruel that all great things require their antithesis be present so that they may shine, or even exist. Greatness cannot be recognized without the sour backdrop of normality, nature cannot be appreciated without its looming industrial counterpart, food is never hunted by those who have never run hungry. To describe my present condition as tepid would be an understatement.
It was in this state of unease that I found something that changed the entire dynamic of the discussion at hand, something that folded all established cards, wiped the slate clean. This was, of course, The Home Depot Ceiling Lighting Aisle. Although the surrounding area was well lit itself, this particular aisle rose above all others as a beacon of what is possible, and what possibility can truly entail. With no place of darkness in sight, this aisle still exuded a temperate and near tangible light. This moment struck me with a fervor. Perhaps not as great as it may have been if enshrouded with expansive darkness, this aisle was but the zenith of this light, and an inquiry to my question. Not the greatest, but undeniably, wholeheartedly great. I cannot help but feel there is a wonderful comfort in being only great.
