Life is like photography, you use the negatives to develop. Unknown
A lot of times we can't see details unless we look closely at the negatives. Standing in a dark room with only a negative to look at you will see things that you wouldn't see standing in the light looking at the developed photo. Life is like that too. Sometimes we don't see details that we need to see until we are in a darkroom and the only thing we can see is the negative. And at that point we feel broken, perhaps betrayed, maybe weak, but definitely broken. Photographers use the negatives and the details they see in them to bring to life a photograph. What if we approached our own darkrooms and the negatives we are faced with that way? Look at the negatives and instead of despising them use them to bring more life to our character. There are lessons for us in the darkrooms of life and in the negatives that get exposed. We just have to be willing to stay in the darkroom and let the negatives "speak".
