You've got to live a little...

Recently I was busy with work one Saturday, trying to complete a real cumbersome asignment I'd been given a day or two before.
The week had been like a work week in hell and I hadn't had any time to complete it.
So there I was spending my free, personal time to finish work that in all honesty could have waited until Monday, so that I would have more time to do whatever other asignment came in during the week.
But why do we work?
Do we do it for pleasure or the income it provides?
Honestly, would you still work if you didn't have to even if you really loved the work you do?
Sure a lot would say yes, but in the end work is all about necessity.
Take that away and nothing is left.
Yet there I found myself doing work on my time just so that I had more time do more work.
Why work at all if you don't get to do the things you work for in the first place?
That's just pointless.
Spend as much time doing the things you love, work excluded you sick workoholics!
Get a life.
Get a hobby.
Get anything you'd look forward to doing/being with outside of work.
Live for that and let your work be nothing more than a means to an end.

The side effects of a golden heart.

Where does evil sprout from?
Where does it find root the easiest?
Most would agree that such a place would be a dark, remorseless place.
I disagree though.
I think it finds its holding place most often where there is an over abundance of good.
"If evil is darkness then good is most certainly light" I can almost hear you say.
And you would be right, but then the brightest of views falls to darkness as the shadows prevail the moment the warmth and light of the sun abandons us.
There is no getting away from it.
What is evil?
Is it the absence of good, as darkness is the absence of light?
Is it the presence of malice?
If its the latter then the light vs darkness equation means nothing.
If its the first then can it be so bad?

It's in people's nature to test the boundaries of every relationship they find themselves in.
They will rip at the heart of a good soul until nothing is left but an empty shell.
There-in pain will grow and fester until it overcomes what was once filled with unconditional love.

Thus is the fate of the golden heart.

But inevitably the sun will rise again and the shadows will be replaced by light and the cold with warmth.
Eventually every good soul will find a balance between the light and the darkness.
Pain teaches us to endure.
Nature gives us no more and no less than what we can handle.
It sculpts us into the person we are meant to be.
That is the nature of the light.

Darkness, evil is shying away from the light, from balance.
