More From Jodi Picoult

Once again you are wrong sir, darkness does not exist either. darkness is in reality the absence of light. light we can study, but not darkness. in fact we can use newton's prism to break white light into many colors and study the various wavelengths of each color. you cannot measure darkness. a simple ray of light can break into a world of darkness and illuminate it. how can you know how dark a certain space is? you measure the amount of light present. isn't this correct? darkness is a term used by man to describe what happens when there is no light present.
Dark Simple Reality
One night, a group of moths gathered on a shelf watching a burning candle. puzzled by the nature of the light, they sent one of their members to go and check on it. the scouting moth circled the candle several times and came back with a description: the light was bright. then a second moth went to examine it. he, too, came back with an observation: the light was hot. finally a third moth volunteered to go. when he approached the candle he didn't stop like his friends had done, but flew straight into the flame. he was consumed there and then, and only he understood the nature of the light.

And i saw darkness for weeks. it never dawned on me that i could come out of it, but you heal. nature heals you, and you do come out of it. all of a sudden i saw a crack of light ... then all of a sudden i saw another crack of light. then i saw forms in the light. and i recognized that there was no darkness, that in darkness there'll always be light.
Healing Light Darkness
It is so important not to let ourselves off the hook or to become apathetic or cynical by telling ourselves that nothing works or makes a difference. every day, light your small candle.... the inaction and actions of many human beings over a long time contributed to the crises our children face, and it is the action and struggle of many human beings over time that will solve them-with god's help. so every day, light your small candle.
Children Struggle Light
I want as much time in the darkness as i can possibly have. the darkness provides cover, the darkness provides places to hide and the darkness provides comfort. darkness usually comes around dinner, but dinner would be too obvious.
Darkness Comfort Would Be
Don't be afraid, the darkness you're in is no greater than the darkness inside your own body, they are two darknesses separated by a skin, i bet you've never thought of that, you carry a darkness about with you all the time and that doesn't frighten you...my dear chap, you have to learn to live with the darkness outside just as you learned to live with the darkness inside
