“Every life is a dance of light and shadow. Joy and sorrow, hope and doubt... We sometimes believe that the goal is to stand forever in the light, to rid ourselves of all darkness. Yet shadowed moments have their own gifts. They teach us to recognise the depth of our experience. Without night, dawn would not be as breathtaking. Without pain, how would we feel compassion?” — Ajmal, from the book "Borders of the Inner World"
